Oh my stars, WHAT IS THAT?? It's my worst nightmare, I can tell ya...it looks like it just pitches off into nothing! I would put my life preservers ON before even getting near that bridge!!

I can't hardly breath, just looking at the picture!

That, my dear, is one of this nation's greatest feats of Civil Engineering. You're looking at the northern approach to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, 13 miles of US Highway 13 spanning the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. To the left (east) is the Atlantic Ocean, to the right (west) is Hampton Roads. The complex include four completely artificial islands and two tunnel segments. This picture shows one tunnel segment ... it's large enough that a supertanker passing through would appear as a small dot in an image this size. The foreground is the southern tip of the DelMarVa Peninsula, the horizon is Virginia Beach.

That's the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel.

Connects Norfolk/Virginia Beach with the Eastern Shore of Virginia. It was even more fun when it was just a single span (two lanes only)

LOL, I see you have the same problem I have. Have you, btw, seen pictures of the French creation? I almost threw up just looking at the thing.

You should experience riding a motorcycle across something like that--it's like flying!

We use to ping the tunnel on the way out to test out sub active sonar.
