CAPILANO SUSPENSION BRIDGE, CANADA


First built in 1889 and crossing over the Capilano River, this bridge in north Vancouver attracts close to a million visitors a year. Originally made of hemp rope and cedar plants, it was replaced with a wire cable bridge in 1903, and then completely rebuilt in 1956. There have been several incidents of tourists falling off, on or near the bridge. [Details]
