Take A Leap Of Faith And Jump From The World’s Tallest Rope Swing
Have you heard about the Big Rush? It is located in Durban, South Africa, atop the Moses Mabhida Stadium, and it holds the title of the world’s tallest rope swing according to Guinness. Here you can jump 288 feet off the world's highest rope swing and experience a unique adrenaline rush!
Adrenaline junkies can either ride a Sky Car or hike 550 stairs to reach the top, but there’s only one way down. There’s no turning back once you reach the catwalk some 350 feet in the air. Footage shows the adrenaline pumping moment when a man takes a swing and goes at speeds of up to 75 miles per hour. “Three, two, one, jump”!
Watch as this daredevil steps off the catwalk and disappears into the void at Moses Mabhida Stadium. As the<a href="https://rumble.com/v3y5kj-hilarious-rope-swing-fail.html" target="_blank"> rope</a> catches at about 288 feet, the man swings in a long and satisfying arc across the whole stadium with adrenaline coursing through his veins. Yelling in triumph to thousands of empty seats! Imagine stepping to the edge and marveling at the stadium workers below who look like ants crawling through the grass. Incredible!
This object was actually built for the FIFA World Cup soccer games in 2010, and it’s really a work of art. Its beautiful white arches rise 100 meters into the air over the city of Durban and make for a truly astonishing view! Would you take a leap of faith and <a href="https://rumble.com/v39jpv-base-jump-into-nrg-stadium.html" target="_blank">jump from this stadium</a> on a rope swing?

Daredevil Scales Mt. Huashan, World's Most Dangerous Hiking Trail
This is the stomach churning video featuring what it feels like to scale Huashan, one of China's five Great Mountains, which has a long history of cultural and religious significance. Don’t look down as this daredevil adventurer scale the dangerous Chinese mountain trail!
A group of people hiked about five hours to reach the plank road and walk along the mountain at over 7000 ft of height, on pieces of wood nailed to the side of the mountain. Footage shows one daring traveller balancing precariously on a three-foot-long wooden plank, pretending to step off the path, dangling a foot above the drop. The <a href="https://rumble.com/v2zdsm-huashan-cliffside-path.html" target="_blank">bold hiker films himself leaning over the edge of the plank</a>, tethered to side of the mountain only by the slim harness which is clipped to the thin wire that runs down the side of the mountain. That is crazy!
The trail includes steel rod ladders, toeholds carved out of the cliff and the narrow wooden plank walks. It is very dangerous as there are nothing but planks to walk on and a rail of chains to hold on to. A slim harness keeps walkers from falling but there is no one to ensure that walkers wear their safety gear.
The 7066 ft tall <a href="https://rumble.com/v3jt73-hikers-take-on-worlds-most-dangerous-footpath.html" target="_blank">Mount Huashan</a> is considered to be one of the five sacred mountains in China, and locals call it the “most precipitous mountain under heaven”. Impossible pathways have been carved all over the crags, and it is this place that has caught the imagination of adventurers everywhere.
Mt. Huashan has been a place of religious importance after the Daoist temple was established at its base. Since then, pilgrims, monks and nuns have inhabited the mountain and the surrounding area. A network of dangerous and precipitous trails allows them to access the mountain’s five summits, each of which has a religious structure like the tea house on the southern summit. Together, these five summits form the points of a flower shape.
In addition, the paths have been reinforced due to a recent influx of tourists, but they are nonetheless dangerous, and carry a reputation for fatal falls. Although no official statistics are kept, some say that the number may be as much as about 100 fatal falls a year.
