The World's Most Dangerous Roads
It seems perverse that one of the main roads out of one of the highest cities on Earth should actually climb as it leaves town.
But climb it does - just short of a lung-sapping five kilometers (three miles) above sea level, where even the internal combustion engine is forced to toil and splutter.
Then it pauses for a while on the snow-flecked crest of the Andes before pitching - like a giant white knuckle ride - into the abyss.
This is a scientific documentary aiming to research on some of the most fearsome roads in the world. It will take you to South American where the Youngest Road is a journey through hell.

Seems like the Sky Highway there could be fixed by putting singing rumble strips down the road here and there and putting up some scenery along the way every couple of miles that was always different from the previous stuff.
