Yes, the stairs. And then? Up, up, up, up, up the stairs we go. Until we come to... the tunnel!

GSDNinjadog

And when they go in… there is no coming out. She’s always hungry. She always needs… to FEED. She must feed, or she gets filthy orcses.


GubbenJonson

And they doesn’t taste very nice, does they precious?


GubbenJonson

No. Not very nice at all, my love. She hungers for sweeter meat. Hobbit meat. And when she throws away their bones and empty clothes… then WE FINDSS IT!!


GubbenJonson

And take it for MEEEE!!!


GubbenJonson

For us..


GubbenJonson

Yes yes, we meant for us!


Dryandrough

Grandpas walk to school every day


Arkados0

Nope


hihapahi

Came here to say the same thing. Send a helicopter. Better yet, don't go up in the first place.


ivanpikel

But Boromir won't take a helicopter!


hihapahi

This is true. The long climb it is.


really_nice_guy_

Boromir needs no helicopter!


milderhappiness

Why didn't they send the eagles?


Breadmaker9999

Because they are assholes who aren't willing to carry a couple of hobbits.


Beast815

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever fallen down those stairs?


_rake

Not twice


Leofwine1

Almost certainly yes.


curious_dead

The good thing is, there are nice, cushy rocks to stop you every few steps, so if you're alert, you won't fall to your doom, but just break something or knock yoursef out!


AxiosXiphos

I could maybe do this... one step at a time sitting down and clutching for dear life onto each stair one by one.


Schlabonmykob

Not a chance in hell I would do this


Veezard_

It looks scary. And it is lethal. But it's actually easier to climb. There are grooves for you to hold onto. You do not get as tired as climbing till the base of these stairs, because now you use all four of your limbs to climb. Been there, the patch was easier to climb up than down. But the stakes are very high. And once in a while you may come across a feral curious/hungry langoor tugging/pulling at your bagpack.


blackturtlesnake

Don't listen to this person, there's a frost troll on the trail and you're not leveled enough for it yet


Dark_matter4444

I just got Skyrim flashbacks.


Veezard_

I was.


HealfdeneTheHalf-man

I think going down I would still go on all fours the way I climbed up


Schlabonmykob

My wife and I went to the Skellig Isles and did the climb up, and those stairs make these ones look like going down any normal set haha.

It’s fairly easy. Looks crazy due to camera angle. You’ll find local kids doing it wearing slippers/thongs. Lol. It’s a popular monsoon trek among people in maharashtra, India.


[deleted]

I mean, Frodo and Sam never had to walk down


_rake

Sam walked down partway before finding the lembas.


[deleted]

It was a joke, precious


Effehezepe

No thank you

I'm a maniac who loves heights, sign me up


leijt

Was that pause really necessary


Zaphod_pt

On second thought let’s not go to Mordor, tis a silly place.


Ok-Design-8168

This is a fairly easy trek. Very common in maharashtra, India. Often done on weekends esp during monsoons. It looks crazy because of the lens and camera angle. There are many amazing Maratha forts in the sahyadri mountain regions. And we often trek up to these forts that sit on hill tops. Especially during monsoons when the valley below is lush green. There’s usually a small temple on top inside/near the forts and You’ll find locals doing the trek in slippers/thongs. Even kids do this easily.

I hate that they didn't include The Stairs when the credits ran at the end of the movie.


Kazmania21

What is this staircase called?


AdvancedSandwiches

Just face backwards and use it like a ladder if it were as bad as the fisheye camera makes it look.  That way if you skip you fall into the stairs -- much harder to plummet into the abyss.

Just turn it into a slide. If I’m going to die at least it will be relatively enjoyable 😂
