    This video brings back so many memories. Ever since I was a little kid I always dreamed of going to San Francisco and dreamed of seeing the golden gate. I made that dream come true last year. On our first day there we stopped off at the iconic Mrs. Doubtfire house. From there, we walked down to Marina. I was saving the best part. As soon as we turned the corner into the Marina district, I saw the bridge and started crying. Pure tears of joy. Watching this video bought back them memories and I started crying again because it finally hit me that I lived my dream and I am so happy. Thank you for uploading this!!!!

    I'm 66 now. I would visit my grandparents every summer in the SF bay area starting in 1968 when they moved from our state of Ohio. It was the highlight of my youth and to this day I think of all the places in SF and all over California we visited. I have read several books about the Golden Gate Bridge and always had a love and fascination for it. I have walked it many times and I recall if I am correct that back in the early 1970's there was no fencing and razor wire. Most likely it was rare for someone to jump off to commit suicide. So eventually the fence went up. On another note -around 1978 my cousin who lives in Richmond drove us up to the hills in Berkeley not long before sunset. We watched as the fog rolled in and gradually enveloped the bridge - at the end we could only see the top of the 2 towers as the rest of the bridge was covered in fog. We did not have a video camera back then but if we did it would surely have made for a wonderful video. It was an amazing sight that I have always remembered. People who have never been to SF are missing experiencing a beautiful city. It's not the same as it was when I would visit as a child and then a teenager. I miss the old SF, the Cliff House and the how clean and normal it was back then.

    I guess once in your life you should walk the bridge. I did it, too, mostly because my then twelve years old son insisted. Surely he will remember it all his life.
    But be advised that even on the nicest day, as seen in the video, it is very noisy because you literally walk right next to a six-lane highway, while at the same time there is a chilling wind going on at all times. All of the people in the video prove it, so be prepared.
    Yes, the views are spectacular, especially when a ship passes below you. You can't really plan for it either because, as the narrator says, the fog situation is unpredictable. I definitely recommend it, with the right expectations, preparations, and, of course, luck.
    That said, I have been crossing the bridge regularly by car and even after thirty years doing so, it is still something special to experience.

    One day perhaps you will come and walk our bridge here in Michigan: By total length the Mackinac Bridge, at 5 miles long, remains one of the longest bridges of its kind. By comparison, the Akashi Kaikyō Bridge in Japan, which is currently considered the longest suspension bridge in the world with a main span length of 6,532 ft, is less than 2.5 miles long in total length. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous walk.

    • @susanboatman7913
      @susanboatman7913 Рік тому +1

      By the way, I believe you can only drive across the Mackinac bridge. The authorities allow the bridge to be walked only day and you have to reach midpoint by 10 am so that they can open the bridge up to traffic by noon.

I said to my wife "if there isn't a public restroom on this other side, I'm peeing off the side of the bridge in full view of all the traffic." Fortunately, there was one in the visitor's center, though it was in pretty rough shape.

One thing I would take issue with - you several times refer to it as the world's most famous bridge. It is ONE of. London's Tower Bridge and the Sydney Harbour Bridge might not be as spectacular, but they could also both stake a claim.

    8/2024.....In June of 1988, at about 3PM, when Kathy and I were on vacation in SF, we walked on the bridge, to take in the stunning views. Shortly before getting to the middle point, we encountered an excited cluster of folks. Only 20 minutes before, a man in his early 40s, climbed over the barrier, and jumped to his death into the roiling bay waters below. Groups of tourists and locals alike were shocked and saddened by this unexpected occurrence. Gawkers pointed out the body, bobbing face down, motionless in the waves. He was a well dressed fellow, wearing a bright yellow hooded rain slicker. Murmuring voices in the crowd, said the bay bridge water patrol had been called to retrieve his body. We stole a few glances of that poor fellow, and wondered what lead him to that dire decision. The whole experience seemed unreal, upset we decided to walk back..

      Unfortunately, the vehicular traffic is extremely loud when you are walking the bridge. But it really is the only way of getting to the north bay with a car. There is ferry service, but not for cars. I think the geography of the area prevents them from building tunnels or alleviating traffic some other way.
