Man left dangling 330ft in the air after glass bridge shatters in China. Scary viral pics

India Today  

Taking a stroll on a glass bridge is quite an adventure for those daring enough to cross it. Last week, a tourist was left stranded on a glass bridge at a resort - built into the Piyan Mountain in the Chinese city of Longjing - after it was damaged by strong winds. Several glass panels of the 330 feet-high bridge were blown off by the wind gusting at a speed of up to 90mph on the Piyan Mountain, as per a report published in the Daily Mail. Although the concept of glass bridges is becoming increasingly popular in China’s mountain resorts to attract tourists, quite a number of them have also witnessed major accidents happening in recent years. In Guangxi province, the same year, a man bumped into the railing and died due to severe head injuries while he was trying to walk on a glass bridge which became slippery after rainfall.
