    This guy is doing this one handed while holding the camera with the other! I couldn’t even have the guts to do it with 6 hands!!!

    To anyone watching this with the intent to do it: I traveled from Oregon, USA and completed this via Ferrata yesterday. While it is only 2.2k and mostly downhill, the elevation change and energy burned from gripping on the bars should not be taken lightly. Even if you hike frequently definitely consider the impact higher elevation will have if you are coming from sea level!! This was an incredibly intense climb/hike and I saw many people come with no water, snacks, etc. a woman died from falling off the suspension bridge near the end last year and while I do not know the details I could absolutely believe it was from sheer exhaustion.

    Hey Jackson,
    Came across your video and the first thing I noticed is that you were using your carabiners wrong.
    NEVER let them both face the same direction!
    It's very dangerous as you could unhook both of them by mistake.
    I did enjoy your video non-the-less.
    Greetings and stay safe out there :)

      @@MikaTennessee Doesn't matter for that rule, the process of unhooking one could also happen to the one next to it by mistake. Having two carabiners of different design would be even safer theoretically.

    You need to oppose the gates on the crabs too, so clip up, clip down, that way there’s no chance of the gate opening during a fall if you somehow manage to knock it open.

    I did this a couple years back... and can’t believe u did it with one hand! Although, I think the open face was more scary than the bridge. *** there were actually some guys with parachutes who casually passed us by on their way to the platform to jump. They weren’t clipped in with a harness either. Crazy.
