It's a famously treacherous path, built high above the Gualdalhorce River. King Alfonso XIII opened the walkway in 1921, and it earned a name that means "King's Little Path." But after a few people died on the pathway in the 1990s and 2000s, Caminito del Rey earned a deadly reputation and became a hot spot for risk-takers. Some adventurers might be disappointed to find out the "new" Caminito del Rey is much safer after its recent renovation, said to cost more than $5 million.
This is what it was like before the renovations LINK

I'd love to do that after renovations. Before? Leaning towards no

Boo!
I liked watching the nuts walk that thing when it was falling apart.

I wonder how many workers died constructing the original path and how much they were paid.

It was built in the early 1900's to provide access to the construction site for a dam. It was probably not any more dangerous than any other construction project of the time. It just fell into disuse and disrepair over the years until it was a crumbling mess.

The new one - no problem.
The old one? I was like - That's not so bad... until the 4 foot long hole part came up.

Yeah, those rusted support beams weren't supporting anything anymore. I was surprised at how many people the dude in the video passed.
