Bridge over troubled waters. Divorce as I like to call it. On a serious note The Huey P. Long Bridge in New Orleans is about 6 feet wide and made for two lanes of traffic. A lot of tourists have a panic attack while driving across it but it doesn't bother us locals.

Two bridges, now both are rebuilt, but in the late 60's and early 70's crossing the Mississippi River at Vicksburg was enough to give you the heebejeebes and the old Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa -St. Petersburg Fl. on a motorcycle-the bridge has the wire grating floor-in a high wind.

The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct in Wales, in a narrow boat.

It is just an iron trough about 7'6" wide 70 feet or so above the River Dee. A narrow boat is about 6'8" wide. Though there is a towpath with a railing on one side, the other side is just the edge of the trough about six inches below the deck of the boat and then nothing!

The musical bridge in "Sweet Child of mine" by Guns n Roses is quite tricky. It always used to give me bother, but I eventually got it.
