Amazing!!

[FeistyChick]

got this from a friend via email!!

The bridge (or should it be called tunnel) goes under water to allow movement of ships. In order for ships to pass, this bridge is half under the water. You drive down in the water and then come out on the other side. Truly a marvelous piece of engineering! This bridge is between Sweden and Denmark . Picture taken from the side of Sweden.

(can someone teach me how do to do this?? while i upload this picture)

I remember going through the Chesapeake Bridges and Tunnels as I was growing up and going on family trips to Florida. My mum would cringe each time we crossed the bridges. Heh heh

Nice! It would be cool if we did this in America!

i wonder if the lincoln and holland tunnels in nyc count?? hmmm...

 

[Ocie Denver]

I been cross the tunnel in Norfolk near Naval shipyards many times. So is other tunnel in different location (perhaps it's under milliary airport?).

Does English Channel Tunnel count in? Second thought: It's actually railroad tunnel.

More tunnels in America and Canada:

Err... isn't this kind of tunnel kinda dangerous?

I meant, what if there's a flood?

We already did it in America first.

That's in Virginia, not between Sweden and Denmark. In fact, I believe that is the same bridge that Reba referred to.

I wonder if you are talking about Oresund Fixed Link (bridge between Denmark and Sweden)? If so yeah, that does look like what you said. Here's another picture:

Banjo, naw. That is the bridge between Sweden and Denmark. Check this out: http://www.brainfuel.tv/index.php?p=951

Not according to Snopes and this. Okay, this one is a different bridge from Reba's link. So, my mistake on that part.

But, it's not between Sweden and Denmark.

I rarely take snopes' words but I checked the offical Sweden bridge information and you are right. It is not the bridge between Sweden and Denmark.
