Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge
Just 13 days after the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge opened in 2016 in Hunan, China, it was forced to close. Not because it was faulty but because the number of people far exceeded capacity. Built to hold 800 people safely, daily attendance was expected to be around 8,000. When 80,000 showed up each day after the bridge opened, authorities had to suspend operations to make improvements so they could manage all the visitors.
