Rickety my arse: look how the bridge put itself back together again after it dropped the van, all in time for the next van.

Bridge needs more triangles..

I love this so much, thank you.

Reminds me of that scene from the movie Sorcerer
-
Excellent, excellent reference right there. That bridge scene is absolutely amazing.

I was thinking about Clarkson tbh

Was this an Amazon Delivery Executive?

I wouldn’t be caught driving on that bridge if it was over a bone dry riverbed.
It looks like the classic rickety rope bridge trope
-
So it's a nope bridge
-
Yep, that's a walk or maybe cycle over type of bridge in the best of conditions.

Does anyone know where this bridge is... or should I say was?
Where do they erect such wonky bridges and people are reckless enough to drive over them?-

Russia.

Any developing nation. Especially in more rural areas.

Is Russia a developing nation? I suppose it is.

It's worked way more than it should have for Jeremy Clarkson... So I'm going to say yes.

Did I just watch someone die?

Yaaaaaaay!
Don't worry, surviving in Russia is only a temporary issue. May this man one day succeed in his quest to solve this vexing problem.
It seems likely. That vehicle was just swallowed by a flooding river. It's technically possible the occupants escaped, but unlikely.
I was hoping for a no, but thanks for the realistic analysis.
Probably. That did not look good
I wonder if they had time to think “I shouldn’t have tried to drive across the bridge.”
In theory, they could get out if they rolled a window down before fully submerged or kicked through the back window.
