390ft High.

Costs £4.5 million to construct.


No more than 30 visitors are allowed to stand on the transparent bridge at any one time.





China's obsession with glass-bottomed walkways has reached a new level.

A theme park in the city of Chongqing has built a terrifying transparent walkway which extends more than 80 metres (262 feet) from a cliff face above a vertigo inducing 120-metre drop (390 feet).

The impressive A-shaped bridge has overtaken another observation deck in Chongqing to become the world's longest cantilevered glass-bottomed walkway.

Accredited by Guinness World Records, the thrilling footbridge is located in the Wansheng Ordovician Theme Park in Chongqing, a municipality with nearly 30 million people in south-west China.

The theme park spent one year and around 40 million yuan (£4.5 million) constructing the eye-catching attraction.

The walkway's total length is nearly 200 metres (656 feet) and it was opened to the public in April.


No more than 30 visitors are allowed to stand on the bridge at any one time.








Over to you, readers, can you walk on that walkway?

Money Fell From Sky As Robbers Blew Up Cash Van In South Africa(Photos)

Money fell from the sky when a gang of armed robbers blew up an armoured security van to get at the £1.5million in cash locked inside.

Ten criminals in three cars forced the Cash Solutions vehicle off the road on the R71 near Gravelette, Limpopo, South Africa by dramatically shooting out the tyres.

They then attached explosives to the van then dragged the guards off to a safe distance and detonated the charges blowing the side and roof completely off the vehicle.

Such was the power of the explosion, parts of the van ended up at the top of nearby trees.

The £1.5million rand raid saw tens of thousands of rands in 50 and 100 rand notes blowing in the breeze on the other side of a fence which was out of reach of the gang.

Part of the roof or side of the van was photographed wedged high up in a nearby tree.

It is not known if passing motorists helped themselves after the gang drove off and before the police could arrive and seal off the area to call in a forensics team.

The gang escaped with cash and firearms belonging to the security guards.

Limpopo Police spokesman Moatshe Ngoepe said the road would be closed for at least four hours while officers searched for clues to the gang that carried it out.

He said: 'There are about 10 men in three vehicles who shot at the van and blew the tyres out to make it veer off the road and then they blew it up with explosives.'

The gang escaped in two Mercedes Benz and a BMW with dozens of cash boxes.

The Provincial Tracking Team has been called in to try and track the gang who are believed to have struck a number of times in the region over the lastfew months.
Money is scattered across the side of the road after the security van was blown up by the men.

5 Interesting Nigerian Marriage Traditions

With 250 ethnic groups, Nigeria can be easily be referred to as a culturally rich country with different ethnic backgrounds and culturally resplendent practices to admire. Marriage traditions is one of such culturally resplendent practices and Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 5 interesting Nigerian marriage traditions to know.

The Fulani Sharo Tradition

In what is referred to as an ‘act of bravery’ by the groom before he marries his bride, the potential groom is flogged publicly just before the nuptial and is expected not to wince, cry or show he is in pain. It is believed that this process will help prove the worth of the potential groom in terms of strength, endurance and resilience because the nomadic Fulani are one group of people known for their hard work, courage and discipline. The tradition is more or less a test of the strength of the groom, and any groom who cannot endure the required number of strokes losses out of the marriage race.

The Virginity Test

This is an ancient marriage tradition that has over time become a controversial tradition hotly debated by two schools of thoughts. One school of thought supports it and believes that a female’s pride is in having her hymen intact, and the other school of thought considers it a crude practice that is a relic of a lost age in these modern times. The practice is typically carried out after the wedding ceremony, when the groom is expected to consummate the marriage with his bride. The family of the groom waits outside, at the entrance of the room, for the groom to come out with a blood stained bed-sheet as a confirmation that he married a virgin. If the bride fails the test, a euphemistic message to that effect is sent to the bride’s family, and this spells doom for the woman because she will have to live with the shame of defiling herself before marriage.

Igbo Marriage Tradition of Fund Solicitation

This is one interesting marriage tradition that has been hotly debated over time and has prevented a number of eligible suitors from marrying their love interests. The custom is a peculiar and largely expensive one that involves presenting a list of gift items, sometimes alongside cash, before marriage to the prospective bride can take place. The list gets more expensive if the prospective bride is a bachelor degree holder, and increases significantly if she has acquired a masters or doctorate degree. Many a times, this fund solicitation has led to the collapse of courtships after the man realizes he cannot meet up with the challenging requirements for marriage.

Custom of Not Marrying Until the Eldest is Married

This is mainly synonymous with the Igbo custom, although it is currently not as widely practiced as it was in the past. It is based on the belief that marriage should follow in order of seniority. This tended to cause a lot of fighting and controversy when the younger sibling will be ripe and ready for marriage with a prospective bride or potential suitor, but will have to wait for the older sibling to marry first. Many men and women who found themselves in such situations, decided to postpone the idea of marriage till their elders tied the knot or, if they couldn’t wait, go ahead with the marriage without the blessings of their family. In the case where it was the lady that was affected, some men would prefer to leave the lady and marry outside such tribes if they couldn’t wait for the lady’s elder sister(s) to get married first.

The Traditional Wedding Act of Prostrating

This is a Yoruba traditional wedding act that is practiced even in modern times. Respect is highly regarded in the Yoruba kingdom and this goes out to every man intending to marry a Yoruba girl. The groom and his friends will have to prostrate to the bride’s family, regardless of what they are wearing – be it imported lace or even gold; there is simply no escaping the tradition. Usually, after the prayers are said, the groom dances in with some of his friends and prostrates before the bride’s family.
