Guy climbs Mexico

[SirNim]

Give that guy a medal — quite an impressive (even if foolish) feat.

It's already designed in such a way that it's hard to get started up the side... If you look in the photos, there's a large 7'-8' decorative stone wall at the bottom of the stairs. You have to get up and around the side of that before you can start climbing the actual (very steep) stairs. You can't just start climbing the stairs.

Oh I totally know about this. That's what I was talking about when I said that there was a big jump up.

The 6 or 7 foot decorative barrier was not there the first few years Epcot was opened. It was added later for just this reason. You used to be able to walk right up the steps if you wanted. Not really a big deal :lookaroun


Keep on Rockin' in the Free World! :sohappy:

Some guy did this (minus the yelling) when I was there last August, and nobody did a thing. :lookaroun

 

[TakeMeThere81]

LOL, just another reminder of how people can be crazy.

 

[marni1971]

Idiot.

 

[GrumpyFan]

Two things surprise about this incident.

1) There were no CMs or Security to get him down. He must've done it REALLY quick.
2) I thought the stairs were blocked off. Clearly they should be.

Crazy!

*ponders*

Two words: cliff diving

Build a faux cliff out by WS Lagoon!

[Sam Eagle 1776]

I have kinda wanted to climb it...


The sides actually do resemble stairs.

 

[ravensworth]

I would've yelled 'jump'! One less moron to worry about.:sohappy:

 

[DisneyDellsDude]

He was obviously upset that Donald invaded El Rio del Tiempo.:lol:

 

[wdwmomof3]

It does look tempting...:ROFLOL: I just can't believe that someone really did it.

 

[Chape19714]

Why can I see alcoholic beverages not longer being sold in Epcot? Food and Wine Festival, without the wine.

Welcome to the Epcot International Food and... never mind festival!

Maybe he was trying to discover the best kept Disney secret. :lookaroun

 

[brent2124]

They should have an event at next years WDW Marathon were you run to the top and ring a bell to stop the clock. The runner/climber with the fastest time wins!:ROFLOL:

 

[goofntink]

Some maintenance Cm is gonna lose his/her job for forgeting to grease the steps.
