I think we’re gonna make it…

I think we’re gonna make it…

 

Have you ever just made something and let out a big sigh of relief?

Whether it’s getting onto a train seconds before the doors close, getting to the bar just before last orders, or winning that bidding war on eBay seconds before the auction closes…

It brings a sense of fear like nothing else.

But when it comes to driving, you don’t want to be taking the sort of risks that mean you just make it…

Because one day, you might not.

Just like one driver in Florida who was halfway across a drawbridge when it started to pull up…

The video shows the Honda Accord crossing the bridge as the safety gate closes behind him – and you might be forgiven for thinking it was simply a close call.

Until they’re confronted with the safety gate on the other side, which closes just before they make it safely across.

And then the bridge starts to do its thing and takes the car along for a ride.

There’s even a moment when the driver opens the door and appears to contemplate making a swift exit… until he spots the 40 feet drop below.

Yikes.

Thankfully, the bridge was merciful and plonked the car back onto level ground safely, and everyone got away unharmed.

Apart from shredded nerves, of course.
