Bolivian magicians refuse to leave huts at deadly cliff edge

Aymara shamans, or amoutas, in Bolivia are refusing to leave their homes in El Alto despite being just feet away from a deadly fall.

Locals call the cliffside huts “suicide houses” because of the high risk people living there face.

Structures are becoming increasingly unstable due to heavy rains and the effects of global warming.

City officials have warned residents about sliding rocks and are planning forced evacuation if necessary.
