Hanging precariously off the side of a mountain in the Swiss Alps,
the wooden structure is certainly not for the faint
hearted
It might not look that safe - but at 7,000ft this shed boasts some
of the world's most stunning views.
Hanging precariously off the side of the mountain, the wooden structure is certainly not for
the faint hearted.
It was built to house the operator of a chairlift in the Portes du
Soleil resort in Switzerland.
And with views across the stunning Alps Mountain ranges there
are definitely more boring places to work.
Real estate agent Florin Biscu, from Romania, bought the floating
shed during a recent trip to the ski resort.
He said: "When the fog rolls into the valley the shed appears as if
it is floating on thin air."
But the shack is soon to be demolished and replaced by a more
modern, sturdier structure.
Despite its rickety appearance, Florin says it is resilient.
He added: "It is safe inside, just a little cramped. It is strong
enough to accommodate one person, but no more.
"I was very curious to know why it was there. It is very rustic. It
looks like the home of Charlie Chaplin in the movie 'The Gold
Rush'."
