I am a great fan of the architectural model, be it historical monuments or modern archetypes. But what fascinates me more are bridges, the small village wooden gateways to the giant structure that truly is one of the manmade wonders. However, what we are going to discuss here is a bit different. Bridges are mostly built to connect two places and make it easy to travel or transport.
However, some bridges across the world will make you squirm and wonder why the hell are they even made? Well, you doubt it.

Let me ride you through the ten deadliest bridges in the world just hold on to your seat!

Hussaini Hanging Bridge, Pakistan, Deadliest Bridges

Hussaini bridge of Gilgit – Baltistan of north Pakistan tells the story of survival. The parts of the region were cut out due to lack of roads and hilly Mountain terrain. Thus, the bridge serves the purpose, yet it is one of the scariest ways to travel. The bridge lays across the Borit lake, is made up of rope and wooden planks.

The wooden planks are merely 4 inches with more than required gaps in between. Now the bridge is more in a poor condition, yet trekkers do take a risk to enjoy the adrenaline rush for once.

Capilano Suspension Bridge, Canada

Situated in North Vancouver, across the Capilano River is the world’s deadliest suspension bridge. The bridge is known for its 450 feet long and more than 200 feet high from the ground.

Taking a look at the mere picture can give chills through the spine. However, that does not stop tourists from across the country to enjoy a walk through the bridge.

Trift Bridge- Switzerland, Deadliest Bridges

Trift Bridge is situated in the Swiss Alps. It was built in 2004, as a result of quick glaciers melting in that part of the region. It was modeled after the Nepalese High Wire bridge. The bridge looks horrifyingly dangerous, yet it is considered as one of the safest and accessible pedestrian bridges across the world.

The walk will be completed by one and a half-hour of a walk, but it will endure you with the most beautiful view from the heights.

Canopy Walk, Ghana, Deadliest Bridges

One of the most dangerous bridges is Canopy Walk. It is situated in the heart of Kakum National Park, Africa. Even though the bridge is poorly constructed, an everyday number of people, as well as castle, walk through this visibly unsafe bridge.

But, trust me, this is one of the deadliest bridges one would come across.

Some ounce of guts is required to cross the bridge, and if you have gained the guts please save yourself from looking down from the bridge. In 2014, the bridge was closed for maintenance and was open next year.

Mount Titlis, Switzerland

Well, if you possess a heart of steel, then with due pleasure take a walk through the suspension bridge called Titlis Cliff Walk. It is almost 3000 meters above the sea level and approximately 500 meters above the ground surrounded by majestic mountains of glaciers.

If the above-mentioned bridges are scary due to its large structure, or the location it is being built, the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge of China is scary for being what it is. Well, the bridge itself is scary as the bottom where the pedestrian would walkthrough is transparent and made of glass.

Nevertheless, these bridges are the giant and magnificent structures that stand tall on the earth but don’t forget, it’s all Man-made!
