The Walk to the Edge of the 2018 Olympic Ski Jump Tower

With the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games less than a year away, News4’s Andrea Swalec followed the path the Olympic ski jumpers will walk before they zoom downhill. The athletes will pass through a glass set of double doors and step onto a metal grate designed not to catch on their skis. The ground is visible straight below. Mountains span all around, and then the edge comes into view. A waist-high gate is all that separates the skier from the sharp slope.
