China's Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge is set to open this year, becoming the world's tallest bridge at 2050 feet high. Recent footage of the bridge has been released, showing crews putting on the finishing touches. One of the most insane facts about the bridge is that construction began in 2022, meaning it took just three years for it to be built. The bridge is nearly a mile long and stands nine times higher than the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The bridge will cut travel time for drivers from an hour to a minute. It reportedly cost about $280 million.
