China: Tourists left Dangling from 330Ft High Glass Bridge
The worst thing that can ever happen to a tourist is getting stuck somewhere and recently the same happened with someone. A tourist in China was stuck on a 330 feet high glass bottomed bridge after it was damaged by the wind. The man was left dangling as the panels of the bridge were blown away by the wind.
The incident took place at a resort in Piyan Mountain in Jilin Province which is a popular tourist attraction. These glass bridges and slides are a big attraction in China.
Details of the incident along with the pictures were posted on Chinese social media platforms. The video soon got viral and made its way to Twitter when user Matt Knight shared it on the microblogging site. Check it out here:
Someone was trapped high up on a suspended glass walkway at a scenic spot in north east China yesterday when high winds caused glass panels to fall out around them. They were eventually able to climb to safety. pic.twitter.com/0vkFHasyWh
