Rec of the day
Something different today... this was posted to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
awesome_places: 10-storey slide in City Museum (St. Louis/ Missouri)
St. Louis City Museum consists largely of repurposed architectural and industrial objects.
One of the most popular attractions are the Enchanted Caves and Shoe Shafts that run through the center of the Museum, all the way to the 10th floor.
In the Enchanted Caves, guests will find an elaborate cave system hand-sculpted by Bob Cassilly and his crew. From every direction, a different creature is staring back.
8 photos of a surreally beautiful structure. I want to visit this place and see it first hand.
bonus rec: Alone on the Wall: Alex Honnold
~4 minute film. Honnold does free solo climbing... scaling mountain faces without a rope, which almost no one does for obvious reasons. Dude actually can't seem to feel fear. It's really fascinating to watch him climb. (Some of the clips are a bit vertigo-inducing, if that's not your thing. That slightly overhanging crack starting at 1:50... gulp.)
