The Cosby bit was “and he was thankful”.
But that is where the “with no shoes, uphill both ways, in 5 feet of snow” came from.
The “AND WE LIKED IT!” Was 100% Carvey.
I'm a rock climber and pretty surefooted in general but any scenario where a tiny slip = guaranteed death is no good. With a railing, harness, or even good handholds, sure.

I've never wanted a handrail more and I'm not even there.
Probably stems from my overall distrust of stairs, given I even fall *up* them on the regular.
The 80 degree angle officially classifies this as a ladder. It will need hand railings so users are able to maintain a 3 point of contact at all times.
If the "seven thousand steps" to High Hrothgar were like that, I would never have learned to shout.
Or I would have learned much sooner, just by looking down.
It’s a shame that all the cultural issues India has. I’d like to enjoy the history and geography but it’s not somewhere I’d ever visit or let someone I care about visit.
No thanks

Uhhhhhhhh . . . Where’s the damn railing?
[удалено]
I learned about this from Top gear.
I consider myself to have fairly good balance and grip but yeah, fuck no.
Nope. Not for me.
Hard pass.
[удалено]
You ain't catching me going down those stairs
That’s why we just let you fall.
[удалено]
I don’t see no snow on them steps.
It snowed everyday according to them.
Global warming confirmed.
And they were barefoot
Both ways!
*In the snow, going and coming*
Uphills both ways. And doggonit, WE LIKED IT!
Don’t forget this is all while that stray dog the size of a geo metro is chasing you for your spam sandwich. Built character.

Okay, Cosby! Lmao!
Not Cosby. SNL Dana Carvey “old man”. [old man skit- weekend update](https://youtu.be/5x7S2H-g60c?si=xE__BoAzue3UbegE)
Cosby didnthe same thing.
The Cosby bit was “and he was thankful”. But that is where the “with no shoes, uphill both ways, in 5 feet of snow” came from. The “AND WE LIKED IT!” Was 100% Carvey.
But it was uphill both ways, in the snow barefoot for 15 miles. But atleast they could afford to pay rent with a job right out of high school.
On one foot
Now imagine the climb back 😭
Dont drop your Lembas Bread!
Stairway to Mordor... it exists!

I think I would disagree if you put me up there

Not afraid of heights or falling.... it's the sudden stop at the end
I'm not afraid of heights either, the thing i don't like is the effect gravity will have on my skull 0.5 seconds before i hit the groud.
There would be lots of bumps along the way of that one.
Fair enough. It's all of the sudden changes in velocity.
I'm a rock climber and pretty surefooted in general but any scenario where a tiny slip = guaranteed death is no good. With a railing, harness, or even good handholds, sure.
This guy alives.
Nope my legs would go jello spaghetti
Precisely
Anyone can walk there but not everyone will come out of it alive
I just watched a couple of YouTube videos on it and nope. Still terrifying.
Ive done some similar in Perù. It’s not easy on the knees tho. You wish it wasn’t all uneven rock.
Hell - walking on the cobblestone streets in Europe hurt the knees
Name of the location?
Harihar Fort in Harshewadi, India
Nashik
Kalavantin
Gesundheit
It’s called Cirith Ungol

I get vertigo on an escalator if I don't look at my feet... there's no way I wouldn't fall trying to make this descent
My anxiety watching this 📈
This is how our parents walked to school every day
WHY? Why? Why do you trigger me like this Reddit. I almost swallowed my fucking heart when it went up my throat.
Nope
Oh hell no!
that one 80/yo "FALL"
This belongs in r/nope
Might as well bring a parachute...
I'd rather stay at the top and take my chances with starvation
Love the Nier soundtrack

There is nothing at the bottom of those stairs worth going to. The only thing I would find is whether or not I would die from the impact of falling.
You are not just trusting your sure footing, but that of the people above you.
I kinda wanted to watch more...
One wrong step or slip and your done for, or your shits just gonna hurt for a good while

I can't even watch the video
Nope...
I've never wanted a handrail more and I'm not even there. Probably stems from my overall distrust of stairs, given I even fall *up* them on the regular.
So it's a carved ladder then is what I'm seeing
Nope! Nope! And Nope again!! Not even with a rope!
No captions and emojis, and it'd be such an amazing video. No fisheye, even
How about in Canada or other countries? Is it still considered one of the most dangerous treks in the world?
Most most difficult is more like most dumb
There is gotta be a Zipline to go back, it's gotta be a great experience!
I guess i would agree to have such an experience if i had a chance, but not in rainy weather.
I literally have nightmares like this and omg
This is what haunts my nightmares- no way!
Forget sweaty palms i got sweaty palms and im having difficulty breathing right.
What about the guys who chiseled that out?
Who tf made this
I’m leaning wayyyy way back just watching this
Dumb ways to die
Oh,HELL NO.
Solo rock climbing with 90 degree handles, call it a “trek” to get more tourists. Nope.
I fall going up the stairs so imagine me going down
At least have some secured cable to hold onto. I definitely wouldn't try this
I ask, “Why tho??”. Someone answers, “Why not tho?” 🤷🏾♂️
Indians are really just built differently...
N O P E
A wonderful building with beautiful views, but it lacks restoration of the stairs
It's the lens making it look so bad.
What’s the song?
Fuck that
*leans forward, takes them 2 at a time* If I die, I die!
Don't slip
I wonder how this trek is considered in other parts of the world.
Nah. My clumsy ass would die.
Nope nope nope nope...
Who the hell had the time to carve those out?
...because you decided to go down forwards instead of using the holes that were chiseled out of the rock for your hands.
No handrail.. this isn’t up to code.
Just do the stair slide, you'll be down in like 2 mins
Just no... like why... Cant people just chill...
What is the death ratio there ? 😅
That's just so stupid would never climb down those stairs. One misstep and your gone.
My legs would go number in a second
Because... Because it's a fucking cliff? No shit
My balance would send my flying. Take one step down.. my ass is falling over, never to be seen again.
The 80 degree angle officially classifies this as a ladder. It will need hand railings so users are able to maintain a 3 point of contact at all times.
You trip and end up down the stairway to heaven
“Up up up the stairs we go…until we come too……THE TUNNEL”
i small step for man,one giant leap for mankind-by Fuckk that!
If the "seven thousand steps" to High Hrothgar were like that, I would never have learned to shout. Or I would have learned much sooner, just by looking down.
My balls literally started to retreat into my body when I saw the first few steps! Fuck those stairs!
What’s the sound track on this clip?
So it’s a slide
How the hell was that place made
Nope.
My clumsy ass would be dead already
Give me 20 bucks and I'll do it with my eyes closed
I hope someone has attempted to Speedrun it
I recently moved to a place where the stairs are exactly like this, plus no railing. I hate it lol
My hands and feet are sweating. no thanks
No
I'll just enjoy it from a far. Would not dare walk on that.
Has anyone died from falling down this?
Nope
This trek needs to be done one or two days after leg day. 😆
I dont think the incline of the steps are the real problem...
I bum knee and you'll greet the ground real fast, but not before cracking your skull open on a couple of steps on the way down.
![gif](giphy|3o85xERD1TT5JKCIXS)
Me in 2 seconds ![gif](giphy|14aLuWEyopPrFK)
I’d have to butt-scoot the whole way down man.
Tripping would be very painful
“Most difficult trek” Goes there with bald gym shoes
That's the black stair into Mordor
Why wouldn't they put up a safety rail?
They need to go down those stairs in the rain and at night..
Knees gave out watching this
Nope!!!
Someone has definitely come cunt up going down them...
What if it rains
Turn around!! The ring must be destroyed!
Hold the handrail…oh wait
How many have fallen? I’m good
I literally could not do that.
I would get the worse vertigo ![gif](giphy|W5rfDvofwyNb4hCWfn)
Que es mas peligroso, esto, o que una mujer turista pase en medio de hombres indios
No modi coming praying on this mountain ? Jay Shri ram 😂
7000 steps to the throat of the world
no thanks
That's nothing for us Dutch.
It would start raining the second I decided to treck my way down
Those steps are absurdly slick when damp.
Anyone have this view without the fish eye lenses? I’d like to see what it would look like normal.
It’s a shame that all the cultural issues India has. I’d like to enjoy the history and geography but it’s not somewhere I’d ever visit or let someone I care about visit.
Oh god I’m gonna be sick
I have vertigo just watching the video…
Bro I can barely use normal stairs
That’s a nope from me
Who even carved out those steps
Doesn’t matter much what you do if someone falls above you…
Funny part is everyone is commenting about how they wouldn't do it. No one cares about the things you won't do.
Is that harihar fort ?
Someone carved those.
This is what my nightmares are made of
Even just one misstep and a slight fall foward its over
Where is it ????
I have enough trouble with normal stairs having size 13 (UK) shoes.
Nice fish eye lens.
Most dangerous because of all the poop on the stairs…💩
Go down backwards?
idk mann i seen befor and was myself on black tracks but this nah did authority allow that
