Hi Prey


Saw a Pic of it on the morning News, quite the Bridge, 900ft. high. I sure wouldn't want to be on it on a windy day :eek:

Maybe i could get the Boxer Shorts Concession for each end of the Bridge. Instant millionaire :D

I was wondering about the structural integrity of the bridge too. The BBC article only praises it for artistic design. It does not mention how it's going to survive storm and heavy winds.

I believe it's 1.5 miles long. Heard a blip about it on Fox News this morning.
