The Golden God Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 7 minutes ago, Honest Saints Fan said: No I drive over the Kessock bridge with my eyes closed. Drove over the Oresund bridge once and was hyperventilating by the end. I remember going to France as a kid and we drove over this absolutely massive high bridge that came out of nowhere, discovered I might not enjoy heights that day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmen Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 2 hours ago, Honest Saints Fan said: This is genuinely my biggest fear. I worry every time I drive over a bridge it's going to fall down and I'll get stuck in my car and drown. Yes. I'm weird. My wife is exactly the same, her way of preparing for the worst? open all the windows in the car. forget the fact that she'd probably die on impact with the water, she thinks it will let the car fill with water quicker and she can get out without smashing the windows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve driven over the Bay Bridge which is further down the Chesapeake Bay from the Key Bridge, and that has been described as one of the scariest bridges to cross in the US. There are drive-over companies that you can hire to drive your car over if you are unwilling to do so yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 There’s a lot of people on here who’ve clearly never left the Clydeside Expressway to head south over the Kingston Bridge. Bit of a giggle being above a six storey warehouse on Washington Street going round a single lane 90 degree bend at 50mph with only a barrier seemingly made out of angle iron between you and it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This all stems from my childhood and my dad hanging me over the side of a bridge like he was Michael Jackson, or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the scariest bit of road ever. I hate it. Used to hate the Erskine bridge but used to it now. Don't fancy the forth crossing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUcal Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 (edited) If you look closely the footage, it doesn't look like a ship. Looks more like missiles to me. Makes you think.

topcat(The most tip top) Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 It may yet inspire poetry as timeless as this So the train mov’d slowly along the Bridge of Tay, Until it was about midway, Then the central girders with a crash gave way, And down went the train and passengers into the Tay! The Storm Fiend did loudly bray, Because ninety lives had been taken away, On the last Sabbath day of 1879, Which will be remember’d for a very long time.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
