00:00World No. 4 EJ Obiena won the 2025 Taiwan International Football Championship.

00:12Even though EJ's clear shot was a bit thick, his leap of faith and gratitude were enough.

00:30This April Fool's Day, no joke, is the annual tradition of a group.

00:35Hiking in the middle of EDSA, Quezon City, to conquer Mount Kamuning.

00:42Ian Cruz reported.

00:46So, we've just come from the...

00:51We're climbing up the east face.

00:54The east face of Mount Kamuning.

00:57It's Mount Kamuning!

00:58Standing at 70 meters above sea level, EDSA's Urban Everest is considered to be part of a hiking app.

01:07Going up again!

01:09Not just that, from ascent to descent, you're guaranteed to hear the sound of the mountain.

01:16That's why Albert Labrador is up for the challenge.

01:19Mount Kamuning is their annual summit goal.

01:23Most of its members are mountaineers.

01:27Some have even climbed the April Fool's tradition since 2019.

01:34And there's just one thing they notice.

01:37You can still feel the literal throbbing of the summit.

01:42But since the construction of the 10 million pesos pedestrian overpass by the MMDA,

01:48EDSA and Scout Borromeo have made a few changes.

01:53For example, the installation of a rest area.

01:56This is a landing area to reduce the risk of falling.

02:01It was changed because of the steep and dangerous railings.

02:06But the MMDA said it was based on the guidelines of the MRT-3.

02:12Some still use it.

02:14But just like Albert, it's hard and you have to be careful.

02:19Ian Cruz reporting for GMA Integrated News.
