I saw this video and just thought,
"Holy crap, it's a dwarf fortess!"

That's not so dangerous. He has a little rope to hold on to and everything!

That place looks awesome.  If only I wasn't afraid of heights... and had the money to travel.

I wonder if they ever thought about, you know, putting boards on top of the little metal rods.

I'd imagine there were boards there at one point. The video comment says that it's "fallen into disrepair" so the boards have either rotted away and collapsed or were stolen by animals or something.

Not boards, just concrete walkways, hence why he had to walk across the metal struts at parts.

Wow, this looks like something out of a game. I kept fighting the urge to twitch an imaginary controller to see if he'd catch himself before he fell.

So there's that, as well. It looks like the only chronic problems that water can't cure are nausea and cave spider bites.
Which, coincidentally enough, can be cured by magma.

Not quite dangerous enough,  they need a couple of magma falls to shore up the gaps in their defences

Why couldn't my vampire Hammerer eat someone useless, like a migrant? Instead, she went after my only gemcutter.. but sadly there were no witnesses, so I convicted someone's pet duck as the murderer.  It got off easy, with no beatings or jail time.  >.<

Reminds me of the time I embarked with 14 female dogs and 14 males. I threw them all in a pit and just let them breed. I then made a doorway to the front of my fort and allowed them all through when I was being invaded. I think we all know the rest
