Nothing is more terrifying than being at a high place, so what about walking while you are high in the sky? Most of the common bridges that are constructed over rivers, railways or roads for crossing from one side to another are traditional and not very high while there are other bridges which are really scary since they are very high and shake when you walk on them. Some of the scariest bridges do not even need someone to walk on them to shake as the wind is enough for making them swing left and right. The higher the bridge is, the scarier it will be. If you are really interested in what is weird and unique, we present to you the following most interesting and scariest bridges that can be found in the whole world in different heights, shapes, lengths and widths.
