A Chinese man smashes a piece of glass with a sledgehammer during a safety test on the world's longest and highest glass-bottomed bridge over the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon at Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area in Zhangjiajie city, central China's Hunan province, 25 June 2016.
Tourists in China visiting what is claimed to be the world's longest and highest glass bridge have been invited to smash it with sledgehammers to prove it is safe, state media reported. About 30 visitors were invited to try to smash the glass floor of the bridge at the grand canyon in Zhangjiajie in Hunan province on Saturday (25 June 2016), the state-run news agency Xinhua said. The tourists wielding 5.5 kg hammers did succeed in cracking the glass, but a two tonne vehicle then drove over the bridge in safety, according to the article. "Even if the glass cracks, it will not break into pieces. Pedestrians can still walk on it," Chen Zhidong, an official at the park, was quoted as saying. The bridge, 430 meters long, six meters wide and 300 meters above the bottom of the valley, can hold 800 people walking on it at one time.
