You have to turn English subtitles on. I can't tell you how many times I gasped and almost screamed watching this since I'm afraid of heights.

Sorry, but that hiking path doesn't look particularly scary at all. Although in Switzerland for such a route you'd have some chains to hold on just in case.

My kids have measles, there are no toys on the shelves, and I can't afford a steak. But at least there's no sign language interpreter at White House press briefings now.

I can't afford steak and my kids have been home all week after they closed the school because of a measles outbreak. But at least now there's nobody kneeling at the beginning of the football games that I don't watch.
