MOUNTAIN BIKING DEATH ROAD in BOLIVIA! - GoPro Hero7 Black
When we got to Bolivia and found out the number one thing to do is mountain bike down something called Death Road, there's no way we were going to miss it!
North Yungas Road between La Paz and the Yungas region of the country is known as the world's most dangerous road, due to its narrow width and the 2000-foot cliff that drops off to one side with no barriers. Over the years hundreds of people have unfortunately lost their lives on this stretch of highway, which has been dubbed Death Road. Surprisingly it's also turned into a tourist attraction, with plenty of intrepid travellers grabbing mountain bikes and riding down its twisting, perilous path.
We signed up for a Death Road mountain biking tour with the company Gravity Assisted, the most reputable operator in La Paz. We left the city and headed to the highest point of the road, way up in the mountains. From there it was a 3600m descent over 60km along the incredibly scenic and slightly terrifying Death Road.
Afterwards we paid a visit to a wildlife sanctuary that rescues endangered animals such as spectacled Andean bears and spider monkeys from illegal trafficking.
It proved to be one of the most amazing experiences of our entire time in South America, and despite the name, we survived.
This video is not sponsored - we paid full price for our tour with Gravity Assisted, and highly recommend them if you're considering mountain biking Death Road in Bolivia.

Death Road Bolivia - On a bike!!!
In Bolivia I decided to cycle the worlds 3rd most deadly road. After the ride our guide told us that 3 people have died cycling this road since December 2015. It was scary as shit but it was also so much fun.
If you are planning to do this make sure you use a good company with good bikes. I strongly recommend
DEATHROAD - BOLIVIA, LA PAZ
Here is my own footage from deathroad in Bolivia (La Paz)
We did it with the Barracuda biking company, which I strongly recommend for their friendly and experience guides.

I joined the death road touring tour. The height of the starting point is 4670m that is the highest place in my life. Many people died on the death road every year.
毎年、数多くの死者を出しているボリビアのデス・ロード

始点となるのは、4670ｍの地点。人生に置ける最高所の地点です。しばらく3400～4300ｍの滞在しているので、特に高ひどい高山病に襲われることはありませんでした。

持参したソニーのアクションカメラのヘルメットにつける部品を購入し忘れたために、同じ部屋のマルタ人から借りたゴープロで撮影。デスロードの様子。転倒して崖下に落ちたら、ほぼ死にます。

Biking Down the Death Road - With Gravity
This is the second time I went down the Death Road. This time with my brother in law. We compiled video from his camera as well for this one.
It was a really excellent experience and I recommend Gravity above all other companies.
