A friend sent me this link, and I couldn't stop watching it (with jaw dropping). According to the comments, this path in Spain has been closed due to people falling to their deaths on it, and you can certainly see why if you watch it. Not for the faint of heart but kinda wild to see!

Yeahbut (I didn't explain very well), the folks who are on it in the video found their way on it even though it is closed and obviously very dangerous!
