There’s a reason why the word acrophobia exists. The fear of heights is a real and very terrifying thing, which is only accentuated when standing on a bridge that’s either hanging miles above the ground or over a body of water.
Take a look at 30 bridges that have all garnered the title of ‘Scariest Bridge in the World,’ and why in reality, they all seem to deserve it.
Aiguille du Midi Bridge, France
3,842 meters above the air sits an incredible view of the French Alps. You can reach it via a cable car that takes around 20 minutes to get to the best seat in the house, giving you a 360 degree view of the gorgeous snow capped mountains of Mont Blanc. But why not enjoy this view in an even more stunning way by standing suspended on an open bridge known as the Aiguille du Midi, making you feel incredibly vulnerable as you stand thousands of feet from the ground. Plus the shivering from the cold just adds to the overall excitement.
