RE: Visiting the Famous Hanging Coffins in the Philippines

in #travel7 years ago

Ya it was pretty awesome to see but also fascinating. Some of them were insanely high and our guide told us they had been up there 70+ years! I can only imagine what it was like to hammer them into the stone wall so high up with basic tools and next to no safety.

Sort:  

No harnesses even! Sheesh. Ancient people were definitely some tough ones. hahaha

Totally! They have been doing that for close to 200 years, can you imagine hanging off a wall face swinging a hammer with a rope tied around your waist in 500CE? It's absolute madness
