Intro: Instrucciones Para Subir Una Escalera

Siguiendo estas instrucciones aprenderás a subir una escalera sin ninguna dificultad. Te lo prometo.

STEP 1: Observación

Nadie habrá dejado de observar que con frecuencia el suelo se pliega de manera tal que una parte sube en ángulo recto con el plano del suelo, y luego la parte siguiente se coloca paralela a este plano, para dar paso a una nueva perpendicular, conducta que se repite en espiral o en línea quebrada hasta alturas sumamente variables. Agachándose y poniendo la mano izquierda en una de las partes verticales, y la derecha en la horizontal correspondiente, se está en posesión momentánea de un peldaño o escalón. Cada uno de estos peldaños, formados como se ve por dos elementos, se situó un tanto más arriba y adelante que el anterior, principio que da sentido a la escalera, ya que cualquiera otra combinación producirá formas quizá más bellas o pintorescas, pero incapaces de trasladar de una planta baja a un primer piso.

STEP 2: Primer Paso

Las escaleras se suben de frente, pues hacia atrás o de costado resultan particularmente incómodas. La actitud natural consiste en mantenerse de pie, los brazos colgando sin esfuerzo, la cabeza erguida aunque no tanto que los ojos dejen de ver los peldaños inmediatamente superiores al que se pisa, y respirando lenta y regularmente. Para subir una escalera se comienza por levantar esa parte del cuerpo situada a la derecha abajo, envuelta casi siempre en cuero o gamuza, y que salvo excepciones cabe exactamente en el escalón. Puesta en el primer peldaño dicha parte, que para abreviar llamaremos pie, se recoge la parte equivalente de la izquierda (también llamada pie, pero que no ha de confundirse con el pie antes citado), y llevándola a la altura del pie, se le hace seguir hasta colocarla en el segundo peldaño, con lo cual en éste descansará el pie, y en el primero descansará el pie. (Los primeros peldaños son siempre los más difíciles, hasta adquirir la coordinación necesaria. La coincidencia de nombre entre el pie y el pie hace difícil la explicación. Cuídese especialmente de no levantar al mismo tiempo el pie y el pie).

STEP 3: Sigamos Subiendo

Llegando en esta forma al segundo peldaño, basta repetir alternadamente los movimientos hasta encontrarse con el final de la escalera. Se sale de ella fácilmente, con un ligero golpe de talón que la fija en su sitio, del que no se moverá hasta el momento del descenso

yes, but if sombody had posted "how to climb a staricase" in english, it would have been modded/flamed out of existence. there's a reason for that, too. Just because he wrote it in another language does not mean that it's a valid instructable.

I don't think an English version would have been flamed. It's supposed to be funny, not serious. There's been a couple of other funny instructables around (like, how to make a child). And, he didn't write it. He copied it from a famous author (Julio Cortazar).

I GOT A DEATH METAL SONG Entities-Job For A CowBoy Hell stands still with an empty throne, with an audience ignited in a conflagration composed by their lord. Descending to their exhausted knees they begin to apprehensively examine their boiling skin which only crumbles away even at the most delicate touch. Thousands of speachless bodies pile over each other completely motionless. Over and over repeatedly this relentless process of hundreds upon thousands consumed only by their own unmistakable immorality. They can no longer depart from their dismantled remains. Over and over again. Far from its eternal home this demon stand over my crippled anatomy, he burries his weight into my impared lungs and spreads my ribs wide open. This cancer now inhabits my chest in complete dormancy. I lay completely paralyzed with my entirely frozen limbs, my body turns cold, my organs shut down. GO PRACTICE YOUR PIG SQUELE CHILDREN!!!

Autor ORIGINAL: Julio Cortazar. ¿Es tan dificil dar el credito a quien lo merece?
Ademas, no agregaste nada original... Tan solo unas imagenes... ¿Para que publicarlo?

ORIGINAL author: Julio Cortazar. Is it so hard to give credit to whom credit is due?
Besides, you didn't add anything original. Just a few pictures... Why publish this?

Little explanation about what this really is: Julio Cortazar wrote a little history about "How to climb stairs". It's actually quite funny, goes over from what a stair is, what to use in the act of climbing it, and how to employ those devices ("foot") to climb it.

From what I can translate (or what altavista can), this is an instructable on how to walk up stairs? Is it in spanish, so that most people won't be able to read it and leave negative comments or any kind for that matter? You joined this site, so apparently you can read english and understand that this is for instructions on how to do things, so why not write it in english?

Maybe there's an epidemic of stairs in Spanish-speaking countries?
