Take an extremely dangerous walk along the Camino in Spain. Scores of people have fallen to their death. Originally built in 1901, the walkway now serves as an approach to makinodromo, the famous climbing sector of El Chorro. It was built so the King of Spain could see the new water pipes that traveled through the lower gorge, carrying water to the costal city of Malaga. Since the Kings single visit eighty years ago, the Camino has fallen into disrepair—huge pieces are missing, and metal supports are nearly
rusted through or broken. Its like a 36-inch-wide slice of cement Swiss cheese glued to the wall with chewing gum.

The music in the video is Magic of Politics by Michael Darius.
