A bridge can be dangerous for a variety of reasons either because it could be very old, narrow, too high, over a quick river or if wooden floors gone missing.  What makes bridges dangerous is that in spite of the condition of the bridge, they are used for various purposes. These are used as pathways or even the only way for the local inhabitants of a small village or tourists to reach a bigger city.  Among all the bridges the most popular are the following hanging bridges.

One of the most scariest and dangerous bridges of the world is the Hussaini- Borit Lake Bridge in Hunza Pakistan. There is absolutely no way this is safe but is actually used on a regular basis by those attempting to travel to the larger cities in northern Pakistan from one village to another. The bridge (if you can even call it that) is very old, missing planks, extremely narrow, and high above the lake. If you are searching for extreme thrills then this bridge might be a delight for you, however for the majority of visitors and locals alike the bridge is truly death-defying and fearful. It is not known exactly how many people may have become a casualty while crossing this treacherous structure, but more than enough.

This bridge has been created out of necessity and in hopes of eliminating the congestion in town due to herds of animals constantly being walked up and down the narrow roads; the villagers in Nepal developed the Hanging Bridge of Ghasa, a very long and frightening suspension bridge, to help curb the traffic. This bridge is used by the locals and the animals on a daily basis so perhaps they are used to its unsteady and dilapidated state. It is pretty high and judging from the photographs it is high enough to seriously injure or kill an unlucky creature if they fall.9 e$ i% n: J$ Q8 {8 T2 s7 J

Danyore suspension bridge is located in Gilgit – Pakistan. It allows vehicles to cross Hunza River. This is a very unique experience and can be a little bit frightening when crossing the bridge.  The old swinging bridge is made of wood and seems ready to break at any moment. In the middle you can feel your vehicle moving as the bridge swings with the weight.  If you make it across the bridge, the road immediately enters a very narrow, dark and scary tunnel.  There is only enough room for one vehicle and sometimes even one vehicle seems like too much! Many tourists take this route on their way to or from Hunza and it should not be missed.

The Capilano Suspension Bridge in British Columbia was originally constructed in 1889 by George Grant Mackay, a Scottish civil engineer and park commissioner for Vancouver. This bridge stretches 450 feet (137m) across and 230 feet (70m) above the Capilano River. The bridge was completely rebuilt again in 1956 after some modifications.
This is a great tourist attraction. This long and incredibly high up suspension bridge has been very exciting with extreme fear of heights. This bridge is considered to be the oldest tourist attraction in Vancouver. Beautiful views thrive here, yet the height is unbelievably awesome and frightening.
