1. The swing at the “End of the World” in Baños, Ecuador

The swing is essentially made up of a metal rod with two ropes, and what looks like a small tree branch to sit on.

Without being strapped in, you then swing out off the edge of a cliff. So if you are looking for an adrenaline rush and a great view, book your flight to Ecuador. More info (HERE).

Located on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu, this staircase, which reaches a peak of nearly 3,000 feet, is forbidden by the Hawaiian government due to liability issues and land access problems.

The stairway was originally installed during World War II so military could access a radio station antennae that sat roughly 2,000 feet up in the mountains. More info (HERE)
