nifty: the world's longest bridge in china

I remember hearing about the plans for this bridge four years ago, and I'm in shock that it's already done! Those Chinese peeps know how to get it done.

It's the world longest bridge. It's 26.2 miles long over the Jiaozhou Bay.

I'm not going to lie... I don't know if I'd be able to drive over that thing. It looks like it's never going to end! There's no sign of anything in sight! Yikes.

It is exciting in the sense that we'll be able to see the possibility of driving over longer bodies of water, though.... if you're brave.

watch: bridge-0, truck-1

I always wondered what would happen if a truck that was higher than the posted height of a bridge, drive-thru, etc. just drove through without paying any attention.

Well, I've now found out.



It literally just kept driving without doing anything! No braking, stopping, caring that there was A PERSON WALKING ON THE BRIDGE.

Fortunately that person [somehow] survived.

Hey, uhh, truck... Your dumpster thing is up, ya moron. Pay attention!
