NEPAL — When I clicked on this video, the title said "Driving Through a Waterfall," and I thought, "Wow, that sounds amazing!"
I'm not really sure what I was envisioning, because it turns out that driving through a waterfall is nothing short of purely terrifying.
The video shows a road in Nepal that would be scary all on its own because it's extremely rocky and carved into a very steep cliff side with lots of sharp points sticking out. But this isn't just any dangerous mountain road, this is a waterfall road.

Have You Seen This? The most complicated dessert in the world
This man understands the why of “If you don’t eat your meat, how can you have any pudding?”Yes, the road is literally in the middle of a massive and powerful waterfall. I'm not sure if it was planned that way or if the water came after the road was built, but watching a vehicle of (surprisingly calm) people make their way across this mountain nearly made my heart stop three times.
After watching the video several times over, I can say I sure hope I never find myself driving through a waterfall. If you love getting yourself into terrifying and life-threatening situations, you might think this road looks amazing, but I'll stick to admiring waterfalls from safer distances.
