Watch your step, folks. Because we’re easing heading into the terrifying world of “death stairs.”
These are the most heart-stopping, anxiety-inducing staircases you’ll ever see. From rickety wooden steps that look like they belong in a horror movie to spiral staircases that make you dizzy just looking at them, these are the scariest stair design fails people have bravely (or foolishly) encountered.
The Facebook group “Death Stairs” is dedicated to sharing these vertigo-inducing and terrifying pics. Here are some of the scariest.
