China Has Opened The World’s Longest Glass Bridge

China's longest bridgeAfter several tests and PR attempts to assure the public of its safety, China has launched the world’s longest glass bridge. The bridge which connects two mountain cliffs in the Zhangjiajie, Hunan province is also the world’s highest glass bridge. 

The bridge, designed by Israeli architect Haim Dotan is 430m-long and reportedly cost a whopping $3.4m. If you’re worried about safety, there’s not much to fear. The bridge is paved with 99 panes of three-layered transparent glass and even attempting to smash it with hammers don’t produce damage.
