You'll need to take a cable car to the top of Gunung Mat Chinchang on Pulau Langakawi, an island in the Malaysian state of Kedah, to walk along this curved pedestrian bridge, which meanders around the clouds of the mountain peak. (Jim Boud/flickr.com)
Bridges provide safe passage for people and vehicles over bodies of water, valleys and roads, but even the safest and most solid-seeming bridge can seem a little scary. The structures on this list - ten of the world’s most terrifying bridges - are bridges that few would probably cross without suffering a panic attack. In other words: you couldn't pay us to cross them.
Langkawi Sky Bridge is a 410 feet curved pedestrian cable-stayed bridge in Malaysia at the top of the 500-million-year-old Mount Mat Cincang. The bridge, which was opened to tourists in 2005, provides 360 degree views of the Langkawi islands and the Andaman Sea.
