My hiking gear better include a parachute if not I don't go hiking on that mountain.

I'm having an anxiety attack watching that video, absolutely no way I am hiking that trail.

Nope, not gonna happen; wouldn't be prudent.

No. Not anywhere.

I like sitting.

Not a fan of heights and that gave me a full-on panic attack. Was able to watch almost a full minute. Those guys are CRAZY....

Drive up to Pali Lookout to get an idea of that hike.

I've been there and frick no.

I don't even understand how you start that hike, most of those mountains are damn near vertical.

Angels Landing. I havent done it but it's certainly on the list. That camera angle made the drop off look extremely severe in some parts.

The camera angle makes the trail look narrower than it is, but the drop off is definitely there. I tell people that it's like climbing a staircase with a 1000 foot drop off on either side. Nobody falls off a staircase, but the view is pretty striking.

Yea, before even watching the video, I figured mentally that's how that climb would have to be approached.

Yes to Kahili Ridge, no to Pali Puka. Kahili Ridge looks like a somewhat used trail and the hike is akin to Angel's Landing in Zion NP which is probably at the edge of my limits.
