The last two images appear to be of the same bridge taken from opposite ends. What’s more disturbing is that there is a failed bridge, built the same way, adjacent to the intact one. (The site where I found these pictures now redirects to something, um, not very nice, so I won’t post the link.)

You guys run on ahead. I’m gonna stay here with the cooler and wait for
The Overnight Open Thread.

Dayum. Even though the traffic is light, I wouldn’t cross it, no matter what was chasing me or what was luring me to the opposite side. If I had the cojones to do what that guy’s doing, I’d worry more about some baboso waiting until I got about half way, then jumping up and down on the cables.

But what made the tire tracks in the water? All this and more coming up later on the Overnight Open Thread.
