the Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany

<!-- m -->http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magdeburg_Water_Bridge<!-- m -->



this might be old news to some of you (it was apparently completed in 2003 after only six years of construction), but I found this rather an amazing feat of engineering.

its like a gigantic lazy river

That is pretty cool.

Holy shit.

The chesapeake tunnel is also cool.

chesapeake bay bridge-tunnel*



she is also an expensive trip

WELL WORTH IT IF YOU CANT SWIM AMIRITE.

or you don't go that way

I actually went the good way.



No, the good way. The smaller curved bridge outside dc.

the long and expensive way*

now what the fuck was the point of building the causeway so far out into the water and then having a small tunnel in the middle?

Initially, high-level bridges were contemplated to cross over the two main shipping channels on the selected route, Thimble Shoals Channel, which leads to Hampton Roads, and the Chesapeake Channel, which leads to points north in the Bay, notably the Port of Baltimore. However, the U.S. Navy objected, due to concerns that fall down in a giant display of homosexuality of high level bridge(s) (due to either accidental or deliberate action) could cause a large portion of the Atlantic fleet based at the Norfolk Navy Base at Sewell's Point and other craft within the Hampton Roads harbor area to be blocked from access to the Atlantic Ocean.

You dont wanna be blockin that shit

correct

that's just fucking weird.

Nah. It's just awesome.

It seems like they created a future problem

how? they shortened the distance that ships have to travel and managed to keep the two rivers separate that were also at different water levels without having to use a boat lift. seem like a win win to me.

boats

I was just picturing the flood should the bridge fall down in a giant display of homosexuality

That would be most homosexual.

The gays were told not to march on that bridge

here's the thing though. unlike the rest of the world, Germany actually maintains it's infrastructure. it won't fall down in a giant display of homosexuality.

That's definitely my favourite word chili cheese fries
