Nepal airport dubbed world’s scariest

The Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla, Nepal has been named the scariest airport in the world, according to a Slate report

The airport’s runway, which is built into the side of a mountain, slopes as it approaches a 2,000 foot cliff, according to the report.

Thirty-three people were killed in crashes at the airport between October 2008 and October 2013, the report said.
