Mike, I hate to tell you this, but there is a famous one in China and it puts that one to utter shame. It is so dang scary (for me to watch on CNN and then on YouTube) that I had nightmares of it. The cliffs were so dang high.... Its very famous in China. Wish I could remember the name. Maybe Feng knows..

It's on my list of things to do before I die.
I've seen that one in China...It has a restaurant or something at the end. It's definitely more breathtaking, but it is well maintained. The Camino Del Rey is closed off and collapsing (some parts are completely collapsed), which makes it more of a challenge.

That China one is indeed very cool, never saw that before, but it has handrails (chains). Even I would possibly consider trying it, although passing somebody must be interesting. But the other? Yikes!
How long is the Chinese one? Anyone know?

Nah...Its not for me...I get dizzy just looking at the video....:isadizzy:
I can't find the actual name, but I vaguely remember seeing Samantha Brown, or one of those female Travel Channel hosts hike it. There are a few short rappels, and there are guides to help you along the way. A little too touristy for my tastes.
On another note, there are several Via Ferrata in North America that can give you a cool semi-technical climbing experience. Whistler, BC is supposed to have a top notch one (Also on my list).
