'The scariest hike in the world': Chinese walker strolls along sheer cliff face in Guizhou Province

This is the jaw-dropping moment a man walks along a narrow 1.5-metre-wide path cut into a cliff face.

The video was shot in Guiyang, in the Chinese Province of Guizhou. In the videos filmed and shared by the hiker, he was seen walking along a narrow, unprotected cliff edge with a width of only about 1.5 metres.

The area was surrounded by sheer vertical drops, with a steep cliff on one side and a perilous drop on the other. The risky walk along the dangerous terrain astonished onlookers, as any misstep could have led to a fatal fall.
