Scary! Massive waves on huge road bridge send Volgograd drivers ashpalt surfing



It's not the Tacoma Narrows Bridge or anything.

Actually, it's the Volgograd Bridge in a video taken in May 2010. Seems that it has - so far at least - had a much more successful fate than did good ol' Galloping Gertie. Seems that they've installed 'semi-active tuned mass dampers' to take care of the oscillations.

That must make for far less entertaining driving across the bridge.
