    Thanks! I wish I were as good with heights. But at least that chain can serve as a banister while making the climb

    The stairs were carved by slaves when the Emperor of Portugal and Brasil came during the Napoleonic wars. He wanted to go to the peak but it wasn't "fit for him", so they carved those out with blood and sweat of enslaved people.

    Question: what happens if you’re going up the stairs and encounter someone coming down?😰😰😰 Where do you go? There’s nowhere to step aside and let people pass😳😳😳And for the record, you couldn’t pay me eenough to go up those- lol! Just watching you gave me vertigo, especially since noone appeared to be holding the chains, everyone was just casually strolling up them- lol.

    Basically we just kind of waited at the wider areas for people who were going the other direction. It wasn't overly crowded, but I could see it being a challenge on a busy day. I say go for it and see how you feel! It's beautiful up there!

    @@dontworryimfinite Yeah, that’s not gonna happen- lol. I was telling people on Facebook today about the third and final time my parents tried to get me to go into the Grand Canyon with them when I was younger. I got nauseous the very first glimpse of the canyon and it become full blown vertigo by the time we parked on the north rim. I couldn’t stand up because my legs were shaking so bad and ended up sitting in the car sweating an nauseous while they took pics by the edge- lol. I love the outdoors, hiking, rafting, etc. and it would be the ultimate outdoor experience for me but I’m afraid it’s not meant to be- lol. Watching this video even made me a little nauseous😬
