Title: Would you drive over this bridge?
Post by: MakisupaPJ on February 10, 2006, 06:32:01 pm

THis is not a funny picture...so I thought it deserved its own thread...it is truly an enginering masterpiece...I would not want to break down on this thing

"The Millau viaduct is part of the new E11 expressway connecting Paris and Barcelona and features the highest bridge piers ever constructed. The tallest is 240 meters high and the overall height will be an impressive 336 meters, making this the highest bridge in the world." HOLY SHIT

That has gotta be a trip when the fog rolls in. Better build those guard rails with extra support.

Yeah, funny that.  Fact: I\'ve driven across the Golden Gate Bridge but I\'ve never seen it.  Huge fog that day.  I\'d love to drive across this bad boy.
