For many decades, this nearly 100 year old Irvin S. Cobb bridge was the only way to cross from Metropolis and Brookport, IL to Paducah, KY. This through truss bridge is scary because it's narrow, has a curve on one end, and the grated road lets you see the water below, makes a weird sound, and makes the car feel like it's being pushed over the yellow stripe. The ten spans make this over a mile long as it carries U.S. Highway 45 over the Ohio River.

This video was recorded with a roof-mounted GoPro hero 8 set to 1080p Wide 60fps and Hypersmooth enabled.
