    Glass Bridge Shatters, Man Hangs on For Dear Life

    We’re sure you’ve seen those viral videos of glass walkways across very high canyons, or top floors of high rises. This is what happens when one of those beautiful and terrifying foot bridges gets pummeled by high winds.

    In the Piyan Mountain region of China, 93mph winds caused portions of a glass bridge in LongJing to shatter. Towering 330 feet above the ground, one poor dude was living our nightmares.

    Thankfully, the man in question made it off the bridge safely. He was taken to a local hospital, and received counseling for what was obviously a traumatic event.

    The LongJing glass bridge remains closed, pending an investigation.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
