10 Amazing Water Towns & Villages
Water villages are settlements that are usually built on the water. Houses often float on the water or are located on stilts and rarely on small islands. This is a list of water villages, which are becoming increasingly popular tourist destinations.
01. Ko Panyi, Thailand
Photo Link
Ko Panyi is a fishing village in Phang Nga Province, Thailand notable for being built on stilts by Indonesian fishermen. The population consists of roughly 200 families or between 1,500 and 2,000 people descended from 2 seafaring Muslim families from Java.
Photo Link
The village has a Muslim school which is attended by both males and females in the mornings. Despite the recent rise in tourism, life in Ko Panyi is still primarily based around the fishing industry as tourists only visit in significant numbers during the dry season. The village includes a floating soccer field. Inspired by the 1986 FIFA World Cup, children built the pitch from old scraps of wood and fishing rafts. Google map.

Crazy Africans
Truly radical piece of ladder application engineering. Possible one of the craziest wish entries we have seen in some time. The men are painting the church clock tower in the northern town of Mussian, (South Africa) on the border with Zimbabwe. The first glimpse looks bad enough, the man is clearly on a long ladder at some height and trying to rub down and paint.The ladder is though longer than you might think, the one the man is on is not resting on the ground....03 more images after the break...

The Most Dangerous Path in the World
Photos & Guide to El Camino Del Rey, El Chorro, Spain
The path was originally constructed in 1905 for workers of a hydro eletric damn set up in the cliffs of El Choro. Since then, the path has deteriorated and is now only for the adventurous. The government of Spain allocated 7 million euros for the restoration of El Camino Del Rey in 2006, however its clear that this has not been spent yet. To get there, catch the train to a town called Alora. Alora is about 12 or 13 km away from El Choro, which is your final destination. 09 more images after the break...

Video and Photos - Aquaskipper: Have Fun with Human-powered Watercraft
I love to have fun with water, especially in the hot summer days. Here comes the new way to enjoy on the water surface other than boats, skis, inner tubes, surf boards, jet skis and even good old-fashioned swimming.

| Aquaskipper: Have Fun with Human-powered Watercraft |
The pictures above introduce all new human-powered water skimmers from Gadgets and Gear Online Store and dubbed as ‘Aquaskipper’.
What you have to do is just climb on board, and start jumping. The spring from your jump will give it the necessary power to propel you up to 17MPH across the water’s surface. Of course, should you get tired and stop, the Aquaskipper will lose balance, and tip over into the water.

The Aquaskipper's patented design, hydrofoil wings and fiber-glass spring let you fly across the water by hopping up and down. Hydrofoil wings have very little drag in the water. Plus, the aircraft aluminum frame weighs a mere 26 pounds.
