Vertigo alert: World’s highest bridge erected in China

Tethered or not, constructing a bridge more than five football fields in the air has to produce a few tense moments. Fortunately, the work is done, and the world’s highest bridge is open for business in southwest China. With a height equivalent to a 200-storey building, the Beipanjiang Bridge linking southwest China’s Yunnan and Guizhou provinces is the highest in the world by the vertical distance from the bridge deck down to the ground or water surface beneath the bridge span, according to the Guizhou transport authority. The conclusion is made based on public data of high bridges that have been completed across the globe.
