There used to be hundreds of people passing by at the same time without any problems, so a bus weighing only a few tons is not a problem with the giant glass bridge at Zhangjiajie Park, Hunan.
A Chinese tourism website recently surprised many people when it brought a self-driving bus across a giant glass bridge, spanning a gorge in Zhangjiajie Park , Hunan.
The published photo shows a self-driving bus weighing 5.5 tons passing through the giant glass bridge with ease.
This special glass bridge was opened more than 2 years ago and is one of the major tourist attractions. At the time of its launch, many people were skeptical about the durability of the tempered glass and the feeling of fear when looking down at the abyss. Not only humans are afraid, but also animals when crossing the bridge have to turn pale.
However, officials at Zhangjiajie Park have a very bold way to reassure visitors when using a sledgehammer to smash glass or drive an SUV onto the bridge to prove the safety of the glass.

At 430 meters long, 6 meters wide and suspended at a height of up to 300 meters, it is the longest and tallest glass bridge in the world. Currently, this bridge is temporarily closed for about 2 weeks for maintenance.
