A grand bridge

The Siduhe Grand Bridge in China is a piece of work. It's claimed to have the highest deck-to-ground clearance: 2,132 feet - high enough to put the Empire State building beneath it with room to spare. The most amazing part, though, is they placed the pilot wire for the suspension cables using rockets.
