In one other replace on China‘s record-breaking bridge over the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon – which we’re promised is “almost finished” – new pictures have emerged of the near-complete construction. But they don’t precisely encourage trust in any prospective visitors…

This large feat in engineering could be the world’s longest glass-bottom bridge at 430m-long, and the maximum of its kind, sitting 300m above the flooring of the canyon. The 5cm-thick glass panels have all lastly been inserted, and right the following you'll discover a way to see architect Haim Dotan watching much lower than zen sitting on his own advent (we surprise if he was considering in regards to the time a pitcher walkway on Yuntai Mountain cracked under tourists’ feet):

No have to be fearful though, Haim, because the bridge could be capable to dangle as much as 800 of us at one time, and can eventually host type exhibits and a bungee jump. The views are sure to be spectacular, too, as evidenced via those best pictures below:

The Chinese are trumping their very own work in this new bridge, as their final glass-bottom construction was also a record-breaker (and thankfully that’s the basically factor that was broken).
