Fun with Bridges

If you ever take someone to the (Golden Gate) bridge, go to the spot where the shadow of the tower is falling on the walkway, tell them to grab the railing and then to look up at the towers. The clouds or fog blowing across the sky, combined with the vibration and swaying of the bridge can reduce most people to quivering, nauseous jelly in an instant. The effect is instant, terrifying and can be long lasting.
