Chinese Villagers Zip Line

This cable ropeway suspended between cliffs is the only access to Yushan village in Hubei Province, Chin, which has a population of just over 200 people. The ropeway was built in 1997; before that villagers faced a walk of several days to get to the next nearest village. The ropeway, which is powered by a diesel engine, is 1,000 metres long and 400 metres above the valley floor.

Ricardo Azevedo rides his Honda NX 200 motorbike, which he converted to be powered by water, in Salto, northwest of Sao Paulo, Brazil, August 6, 2015. The Sao Paulo civil servant built the motorbike which can cover up to 500 kilometres (311 miles) fueled by just one liter of water. Dubbed "Moto Power H2O", the bike is powered by a process of electrolysis by which the water molecule is broken down into its constituent elements. (Photo by Nacho Doce/Reuters)
