For those who built the structure on this mountain, I salute them for their bravery.
Taoists built these things so they could get closer to Nature. It took four or five hundred years.

@@vincentsong1355 how do you know that it was 400 years?......
I don't
@@bogart5131 many great architectures in China were built many hundreds years ago. Magnificent Daming palace was built a thousand years ago during the Tang dynasty, Great Wall of China was before that. First canals in the world were also built by Chinese during the Sui dynasty. 400 years old structures are everywhere in China.
I climbed this mountain in 1996 on foot without using special safety equipment except for the tough metal chains everywhere there. It's not so scary as long as you don't always look down at the cliff... And there were some old local men climbing up and down very swiftly with baskets full of goods /food on their back! We climbed up to the top overnight, saw the sunrise without sleeping, and went down still on foot through less steep but much longer way. It was an amazing, really exhausting but unforgettable experience. I am over 40 now so that will be the precious memory of my past youth.
haha exactly, I climbed in 2014. We wanted to see sunrise so we start climbing one day before, 10pm, nothing serious😂
Are you dreaming!! What!!! I salute you
Nothing special actually. I saw lots of people who were there climbing like we did.
还这么年轻哦
I climped in 2016
Did this very plank walk in the summer of 1991. And there was only the chain to hold on to. No safety line, nothing. I almost fainted. And I did the plank walk in the morning, after going up the mountain all night from the railway station, where we had arrived in the evening. It was a day I will never forget.
NO not possible that there was only chain to hold NO WAY!!!
@@Voltomess I assure you, it was as I stated. It was horrifying. More than one time I thought I would die. After that experience, I developed fear of height, and was unable to climb on ladders more than, say, two meters high for quite some time. I almost could not complete work in my house because of the massive fear of height I developed after that plank walk. Only during the last ten years, that fear became less intense. I just checked my archive and found two slides from our trip in 1991. They clearly show that there is no saftety line, just the chain. I will digitize them with my macro lens and send them to you. I just need your e-mail address.
But did anyone tell you to do this under such conditions...I would never do such stupid thing. I do not need this type of adrenaline. For me safe walks in Mountains and on sea sides are enough. If people need such challenge it’s fine, but don’t complain.
@@judykraska400 Judy, in fact, I did not know what was awaiting me. All I knew was that we were going to see some holy (?) chinese signs carved into stone. When began descending that ladder, the slope was gentle. After a few meters, I turned around and stared into the abyss. I could not revert, and thought, well, it can't get any worse. But worse it got. Generally, I do not take risks. This whole thing came as a complete surprise. I acquired a fear of heights as a result of this traumatic experience. Only now, after over 30 years, I can climb a ladder to heights exceeding, say, two and a half meters.
Where are you from bro.?
OMG! My legs are shaking just by watching this in the comfort of my couch!
Same like😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️
How crazy is the fact that it is actually a two-way walk!!! And people passing each other going the opposite directions, it's unbelievable. I'm so glad I was able to see this from the comfort of my sofa-bed (because I would never dare go there myself), thanks for sharing and congrats on your courage!
9:35
Agreed. Just watching these people shove past each other is to much.
kzhead.info/sun/mauhlb6Me32mfpE/bejne.html🌹
In Europe it could ever be possible!
Not courage, only insanity! Only in china this!
On my list of things to NEVER do.
🤣🤣🤣
😅
I think this people doesn't love their life.
All these are mad
Adrenaline brings power
That is hands down one of the most awesome things I’ve ever seen. We need some of these in America!
America and Canada is too pussy for this.
Thanks for sharing, I could never do this but I love the fact that you had this experience and shared it
Yepp Yepp like me.
When I was at Hua Shan in 1979, they didn't provide us with any safety cables. It was a bit scary. But they offered parachutes for a price. I was in college at the time and had barely any money. So I went with no parachute / safety equipment. Good times. Be safe. - Hans from Stuttgart
peekaboo peekaboo Hi, Hans -- what did the guy said to his female companion on 1:33 ? -- when was putting on the harness.
@@peekaboopeekaboo1165 he said: "you don't want to hang at this thing there."
Well looks like the equipment they provide is flimsy and will not prevent a fall. A persons arms can easily fall through that well worn shoulder strap & cable. So basically everybody is still free climbing up there. I wonder how many deaths have occurred on this trail?
LMAO parachutes🤣🤣🤣🤣 brilliant idea🤣🤣🤣
Crazy world
How beautiful to walk on the ground, shop and take pictures on the banks of the rivers and among the trees and look at the beach at sunset.
Hahaha, I agree with you.
@@alfredodistefanolaulhe2212 🤣🤣😅😅
Totally agree with you. 🤝
@Primitive Math hahah you have to be an ibex to climb this summit .
Bem melhor , lindo e seguro . Sem necessidade de se arriscar numa tremenda loucura dessa.
God bless you both you both are such a brave God bless you I enjoyed the blog coz of you two it's not so easy or fun at least you took such an efforts that I really appreciate you both if i was in your place I never go and first of all I'll get running from the site 🤲thanks a lot 🤲🤞✌️👍🤲👏👌🤲
My legs are weak just looking at the video, very very brave people, thankyou for sharing.✌️
I can’t even imagine how many fatalities they must have every year. By the looks of this with two way traffic and many experienced people in a confined space gives me the Hibee jibees
It doesn't look that dangerous?
30 years ago when I walked the plank there were no harness. Only safety measure was the chain fixed on the cliff for you to hold. And I made sure I had one hand holding the chain at any time. The guy in front of me was so nonchalant that he held then let go as he walked, since he was carrying one handbag in his left hand. Nerve of steel.
🙄
我在20岁时登上华山，并在没有保护的情况下走过华山栈道。 我现在60岁了，只有年轻才会有那样的勇气，
The views from this height are so beautiful. It would be nice to fly a drone over it for some cool footage. But I would never ever climb this.
When I went, there was no safety cables, nothing, just planks and a loose cable on the wall for you to hang on. Just three plank wide, some local kids were chasing each other up and down, duck under you .. "excuse me, uncle", and ran by you. When I reach the end, relaxing at the platform, saw three ladies crawl on the planks to reach the platform. I asked them if they are scare, "Of course, but still got to do it". Amazing.
Very nice
This was built over 700 years ago by a recluse who lived in the moutain. I do not know how well it is maintained but the plank looks pretty old to me. If you talk to the locals they will tell you how many people died falling off the plank. Some were suicides, some were due to snapped chains, some were plain stupid- like taking a selfie.
My gos my heart keep jumping up and down I start to breathe harder my hold body is shaking feel like I am in there with them scare to look down thank you for sharing.
wow amazing and beautiful place 😍😍
Though it must be a great experience to climb that cliff but am amaze by how the workers must have built those chains and iron stairs, wooden planks, stone carve stairs, and those small hollow square box shape to put the feet inside while walking . Big salute to them 👏💐💐
I was wondering about it too. Also wondering was, if those ancient warriors and fugitives seeking refuge, how the hell did they manage to reach the peak or, maybe died b4 reaching the peak.
probably a great experience if you manage to do it when there are fewer people around. Nature and crowds really don't mix well imo
I was wondering, was there any accidents occured among the workers during those period of set this things up
They had ropes lol
@@laicheewai8264 well they do say dead men tell no tales, lol
This adventure is definitely not for bitty hearts like me.These people are really brave to take up such a challenge.By just looking at the video itself is giving me chills!!!
Lol correct!
Same with me I HV Acrophobia...
What you say is true but I lived in China and Chinese seem to have a different way of thinking about these things. They fear death but at the same time they don't respect life (even their own) 🤣 It's weird.
you gotta consume adderall before hiking this
This mountain is very charming. I climbed it last year and also went this place which was called 长空栈道 in Chinese. It's impressive.
not the best video to watch before bed.. my heart is pounding
it indicates that Chinese workers were so brave and talented.
Lukas Karl it was built first by Taoists.
Yep, it built by Taoists in thousands years ago.
chinese people just make stupid traffic because most of them being tourist in their own place and make this more unsafe to many people..they stupid just make real tourist explore with less traffic so they can go fast and more saftey..you can hear he sya it is more crowded,crowded with who you guess?their own chinese tourist wanna be...
Looks very overcrowded, like mt everest
@@celdo84 but the challange is diffrent,mount everest so cold and just a thin air to breath,and this one is normal but they should give more tourist from other country a chance to explore the place rather than local,the cable cant support if more people hanging there..
Good thing I was sitting on the toilet when I started watching this!
haha
🤣🤣🤣
Jayson Allen 🤣
😎😆
U r like me too sitting in the toilet haha 😄
чуть не умерла от инфаркта,пока смотрела!!!
Yes
Я тоже 😊
I can watch this from the safety of my living room . You could never get me up there!😊
This road was first built by a taoist He Zhizhen(1212～1299) who was also known as a stonemason. Before the road finished, he had already built over 70 caves to help taoists cultivate. At the end of the road was the cave he lived for avoiding interfere from disciples and government.
So it's basically tax evasion
@@adityamohanty9474 hhhhh During his time it was Yuan dynasty, a dynasty build by the mongols after they conquered China, so this taoist was avoiding them actually.
kzhead.info/sun/or59mtCyiZaoqok/bejne.html
But Yuan was actually quite supportive to Taoism. Both Genghis and Kublai were fans of some Taoists.
Wow this is an affront to communist way of thinking. Why didn't Mao have this place blown to bits with tnt??
缅怀那些一代代的开山之人，我去华山，听讲过那些路的开辟历程，还有很多华山的传说，我只能说，那是一趟绝对值得门票的旅程。
Вы ещё не слышали легенду про шарвили))) 😆
@ZIYUAN ZHANG 宝莲灯，沉香劈华山救母
the people who build this place are great i am so amazed
Hohooooo niceeeee 😍 we also have Via Ferratas in Switzerland, but nothing so crazzzzzzzy haha. I’ve got to plan a trip there to do that 🤘🏔🤘
I'm Japanese. I watched your video as a beginner in mountain climbing. I don't understand English because I use a translator. I can't even read comments. I want to tell you. Thank you for the best view. I think mountain climbing is the best sport to connect with people all over the world.

If a horse spoke to you and said "Buddy, I think you're swell...would you be my buddy, buddy?" would you be the horse's friend?
The Video is in German, maybe you Fond japanese subtitles
You know what, I'll enjoy the scenery and the mountain from afar, on a flat space where my feet touch the ground and my legs are not shaking... But you do you... 👏
Thanks U Very Much For Vlog Camera
Excelente desde mi punto de vista es desafiante y como debe salir la adrenalina, me gustaría hacerlo desde Vzla, gracias por este video
My hand n legs starts shaking nd I already died while watching this..
Me too
But did u die? Lol
My hands and legs shiverd when i watched this
😂😂
I am curious. So how could you type that comment?
The camera holding man also must be appreciated for his courage ,stiff ness, along with those who built this unbelievable road.
His stiffness comes from looking at the sexy babe in shorts in front of him!
kzhead.info/sun/or59mtCyiZaoqok/bejne.html
Stiff ness? road? not a road, idiot.
Дух захватывает от увиденного, мое восхищение, гордость за людей, что такое сделали в горах для туристов, это фантастика для меня, как!? Как такое смогли построить????? Мое почтение , уважение ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😮😮😮😊🥰🤔🤔🤔. А эти смелые туристы!!! Сильные духом!🙋 Всем привет из России!
Só de pensar em passar por aí já morreria do coração..😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
China's geography is so amazing!
hert mel welcome to China
welcome here for traveling
the food tho bat soap
Not so Weeaboo You don’t go here to bring that don’t you? Can we just enjoy how amazing this place please? Kuddos to the person who manage to have a view with good quality and a nice weather.
Sorry Corona season 😬😬
You couldn't pay me to do this, absolutely terrifying!
Lol, I would pay to do this.
What if someone offered you 1 BILLION? lmao I was just thinking I would NEVER do this.
No amount of money would get me on that!
Seven hundred years ago, I used to go to the top of the mountain to discuss kendo.
The gentle clinking of the carabiner clips is giving me ASMR vibes, yet the reason for the clips is absolutely terrifying. Interesting juxtaposition. 😂 You couldn’t pay me enough to do this!
A dangerous place like this crowded like a metro station
You said right 😂😂😂😂😂
A chest harness isn’t going to save you, if you fall it will come straight over your arms and head, they should only be used with a sit harness, which ties your waist and thighs in as well.
A couple of instances where someone uncoupled both safety harness at the same time.
What is happening at the end? Why u hv to go up back??
More then anything, i'm amazed by how this was even constructed!!!
The 長空棧道(cang kong zhan dao, long sky plank road) according to legends, was built first by a Taoist sage named 賀志真 (He Zhi Zhen) back in Yuan dynasty (1271~1368AD). Of course it has been repaired and modernized many times since then. But He was said to be the first to build it, and the first human to reach the top of Hua Shan.
Thanks for sharing! Isn't it just amazing that people so long ago already climbed this mountain? I wonder what they used to get to the summit?
@@Life-oo2tr This mountain is actually close to the ancient China's capital city, and I mean the great dynasties about 1500-2200 years earlier, and this mountain has played a religious & political part on ancient China. It's steep with about 2000 meters height and there's no record of the 1st one to the summit. However, trust me it must be a lot earlier, and the video here is not on the necessary path of getting summit.
志字辈，是不是全真教？
@@Life-oo2tr someone said he used a string with one end tied to the tree on the summit while the other end tied with the body.
They don’t give you but 2 safety straps?…….damn they would have to give me a hundred of them safety straps before I would walk that plank.💯👍
Love how you only get the safety gear a full minute into the super dangerous walk
I would nevrrrrr evrrrrrrr try this in my life...sooooo frightng....but Hats off to those who r doing this without any fear...i would definitely faint😨😨😨
It's all in your mind! :) Step by step you can overcome everything. Challenge yourself everyday! 👍
Thnks for ncourgng..but I suffer from acrophobia..but in future I will definitely do somthng like this...hop my legs won't tremble😆😆😆
Subala Rai Lama me too, I feel nauseous watching that
I kinda want to try this. Couple years ago, I had been there. But I broke my glasses and couldn't see things clearly. So I didn't try that.
Me too,i never try this ,so scary even to watch,.satoputlo gayo mero ta..
Thank you for filming your adventure, great sight, it felt like travelling along with you, a little bit.
Is not that bad. If anything im more impressed of the workers who made it a walk in the park for everyone.
Wow, keren , bagus, terima kasih sudah berbagi, semoga sehat dan sukses selalu.
Everyone is so brave. Amazing . Thank you for posting .
People casually walking like a day in a park
Ok…. What is this going under people? And why did you go back up? I hope I can find these answers in the comments.
Why did you decide to go back?
I'll never understand how brave people are. I'm a person who's even scared of rollercoster
You speak my mind
I’m literally scared of just climbing to the top of a tall ladder. Doing this plank walk will bring a whole new level of fear to me.
My heart is dropping by watching this journey.
What camera do you use to take great videos?
Hello, we would like to use this video on a Japanese TV show. Can we use with credit to you? Thank you!
作為一個南方沿海的後生仔 看到這個視頻，感覺超級恐怖的！！！！！！沒見過那麼高的懸崖
@故国梦重归觉来双泪垂 牛逼
The people who made the path should have also thought of a return route where you don't interfere with the oncoming traffic LOL. That was an insane video; watching all these people climbing this. Glad you enjoyed it and filmed for us not so inclined to do this haha! Must have been a great experience for you both :)
I totally agree with you
The people who made it are taoist monks that isolate themselves in nature.. well, they never really considered that a hundred years later, it'll be a tourist attraction lol
@@aniusers To be precise, 700 years ago
At that high wearing dark 🕶️ glass ?? It's unbelievable people are so brave 😮
Walked this plank in March of 07 no problem. Cake walk and you can do it too! Good luck!.....At the end of this walk is a temple room inside the mountain for prayers and thanks.
Dangerous adventures. A person can fall from this immeasurable height. Appreciate your efforts.👍👍
I'm scared even watching the video
Me too😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😢😱🙇
Me too.
Never dare to go there.
Cowed
This is not the nessary trail when you hike this mountain, get more exciting for people only.
There used a be a small trail that leads to the top and it takes about 4 hrs to do. Now they have a cable car to bring you to the top in minutes. Along the way you can still see the trail carved into stone.
How many people died while building the temple on top of this peak??
You're a so many different things that could happen on this plank walk! For instance, What if somebody Panics and refuses to go any further which then leaves everybody else stranded on Those little ladders for hours or longer and that's just 1 thing that could happen! It is so crazy to me !
Или в голове закружится, или сердце от страха екнет.....
That's China for you, no health and safety, no welfare or respect for human lives. It's a terrible country. That would never be allowed here, in a trillion years. It's insane and totally and utterly stupid. Sorry, but anyone who dares to walk it deserves to fall off.
那就只能等待景区工作人员来抬走他啦😄
9:56 That man has a tiny office 😂lol
Yes...and imagine his commute to work each day! 🙂
He is a photographer who prints the pictures on the spot. The tourists can collect the pictures on the way back. He should get his money upfront if he is smart

indeed
Amazing fact of mountain...nice..nice
quale medico ha prescritto questo?
oh maan... watching this already scared me whole lots.. i can't even finish watching this...i am shaking still
이 영상을 보는 내내 내 마음이 긴장되었네요. 너무 무서운 것 같아요. 산이 아주 험난하군요. 저 산을 오를만한 마음의 용기와 모험이 아주 대단합니다 ^^
Hola porfavor, no entiendo el titulo en idioma chino, como se llama ese camino turistico? Gracias
Wood!! How thy bring it n how thy make tht place..
What’s amazing, and think real hard and look really close on this one, if someone falls, these “safety restraints” are likely to not save you. They go around both arms so if you simply slip off an edge and both your arms go flying up….seee ya. The harness will come straight off like someone pulling your shirt off from overhead. These straps don’t go around and between the legs as they should which would fully secure the individual. These are feel good straps. Enjoy that thought for anyone who’s taken this route!
Yea, these straps just give people a false sense of security, a peace of mind to climb this over populated unsafe attraction route.
@@Mr.DinosaurPD yeh bloody unsafe lol!
@@Mr.DinosaurPD这本来就是勇敢者的冒险游戏，攀爬之前景区就会让你签生死自己负责的协议！你可以自由选择，没有人强迫让你从这里爬！！！这座山还有其它不危险的路径可以上去

yep!
thanks!
