google.com can you find 'driving in Bolivia', or 'road of death'?

Question

it was an e-mail my cousin had and she deleted it.

Answer 1

Here is a post about one tourists experience on a "fun" bike trip along the Road of Death. It makes you think :http://www.liebreich.com/LDC/HTML/Climbing/Mountain_Biking_Bolivia.html
The post was by a British former-Olympic-team skier and high-altitude mountaineer (a thrill-seeker) who still concluded the death road was an inappropriate form of entertainment.

Here is another post that is helpful as well: http://dogberrypatch.com/archives/body-of-tourist-found-on-bolivias-death-road/

I was in Bolivia but did not have time to mountain bike down the popular tourist attraction called the "Road of Death". I did have misgivings about doing it anyway, based simply on the moral implications. It's morally questionable, IMHO, to run a tourism system of bike rides and car rides which maximize the allure of the business (excitement) if some customers die during some of the outings [just not yours, but no guarantees, right?]. The death statistics make the road an attraction. And the death statistics include the tourists who are drawn by those same statistics. I think the post by the British Olymnpian left me feeling that I won't ever ride that road, regardless of my intense, morbid curiousity.

There seem to be plenty of copies circulating the net... to list just a few from the first page of google matches:

Some sources dispute the location... from the first link given, "Slides 1-9 are not in Bolivia. Stremnaya Road is not located in Bolivia. That road is known as the tunnel of Guoliang, and is situated on the mountains of Taihang, China.
Slides 10-15 is the road that connects La Paz with the region called Los Yungas. Yes, it is very, very dangerous. "
