Top 10 Scariest Bridges in the World


1. Hussaini Hanging Bridge, Pakistan



In the world top scariest bridges, the Rope Bridge nearby Hussaini village in Pakistan is definitely in the first place. The bridge crosses the River Hunza and has become famous all over the world as one of the most dangerous bridges. This fame is absolutely deserved because when the brave adventurer steps on it, if he finds where to put his feet on, because of the great holes between the wooden steps, the bridge starts to swing and there is a big chance to lose control, step in empty or just panic and freeze! So, all tourists who do not wish too much thrill - do not try this one!

High in the Swiss Alps there is a pedestrian bridge that can actually cause a serious thrill and adrenalin rush.
