Is that the one featured on the Top Gear episode where the guys took a 40, a Range Rover and a Sammie across Bolivia? I think it's posted on here somewhere.

I did. It was worth it. The 40 should have made it to the end of the trail, but the knucklehead driving it apparently forgot how to operate the e-brake. Operator, not vehicle, error.

I honestly think they did that for cinematic effect.....you can never really tell if they do it on purpose though.

They built another hiway to bypass the hiway od death but for the couple of small villages on yhe other side of yhe mountain thei hwve no choice but to take that rd. And half the deaths r all bus crashes.

Yungas Road (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yungas_Road), or as more commonly referred to as El Camino de la Muerte, in Bolivia. Youtube is full of videos about it. I'd love to go there someday, looks fun (and beautiful).
