This is a super trope dealing with Insane Precipices. This deals with the strange properties of these (mostly) fictional features, such as their apparent unavoidability. Bizarrely averted in [[Role-Playing Game]]s by [[Insurmountable Waist High Fence]], which is the opposite of this trope. Usually involved in a [[Climbing Climax]]. Not to be confused with [[At the Mountains of Madness|Mountains of Madness]]. |

* ''[[One Piece]]'' during the Drum Island Arc takes this to its worst. Luffy, in the middle of a blizzard, carrying a sick Nami and an injured Sanji (with his mouth), has to climb a nearly flat mountain that inclines directly upwards. This takes several episodes. At one point, Luffy's fingers ''explode in blood and he ends up sliding down a whole fraction of the mountain, blood flying everywhere, Luffy unable to even scream less Sanji drops from his mouth,'' until he finally regains his grip. This is truly one of the most painful scenes to see in the entire anime and easily turned Luffy into [[The Determinator]]. |
