We gleaned photos from across the globe. Our search led us to discover bridges that most people would not believe if they did not see photos.

When mankind started building bridges nobody could imagine. The heights they would reach. But man-made the impossible is possible and built bridges in the most unimaginable places. Some of them are so dangerous that the mere thought of walking these scariest bridges around the world would send chills down your spine.

The moment you take the first step on these petrifying structures you experience vertigo a tingling sensation caused because of the fear of heights. These bridges have made even the radical atheists remember their god.
