The Elie Chainwalk



Imagine that just getting to your workplace involved scooting along the face of a rock cliff, hanging onto a chain for dear life. Fighting traffic doesn't seem too bad compared to that! But that's exactly why the Elie Chainwalk was developed, to help fishermen get to their boats in Fife, Scotland. Maybe they have a road by now, but the chain walk is still there, and Tom Scott tries it out so we don't have to.

I doesn't look like something too difficult for someone in reasonably good shape.
For that reason it's dangerous as hell. If you're not really struggling it's easy to lose focus and make stupid mistakes. Distracted by the scenery or the shapely butt in front and miss a footstep and suddenly you're hanging on by your fingernails... or worse.
