    All bridges move.. they are designed that way. Wind, hot weather, trucks etc all carefully calculated out to ensure it holds. Even for& to todays standard. Bolts and conditions incl concrete etc are generally monitored closely& fixed in time esp any type of tourist attractions. So, Wes, you have no worries, even if the bolts look a bit lego-ish.. hahaha.
    I have no issues or fear of heights, but those cave stairs looked like they are meant to do anyone in. Geesh could they have been any bigger and more uncomfi? Holy cow.
    I am amazed Wes braved that slide. Of all things.. that was the one where I thought he'd nope'd out off. But wow!!! He went first!! And after all that excitement too, I figured he'd exclaim, I am done, just wanna go home and cuddle for a while.. ehat a trooper & superstar.
    And O.M.G. that Museum was mind blowing. Equally hilarious due to all of your guys' antics& yet it looked like it was so well done!
    Thanks as always for taking us along your journey!!
    Let us know how that night club went.. cant wait for your next video!

    My wife and I have friends who live in Bristol. You can see that bridge from their flat in a Tower block nearby. We visited them back in 2011, flying over from the US. They took us on a tour of the area. We got to see Cheddar Gorge, Glastonbury, an old manor house inside Bristol somewhere on the other side of that bridge, and then they took us to a little village called Wick, where they had arranged for us to renew our 2006 wedding vows. Bristol is a beautiful area. My wife was a tad homesick for Portsmouth, but we had to take a train to Gatwick Airport to fly back to the US early the next morning. We want to go back to England soon, but we have no idea when we'll be able to afford it. Perhaps in 2024, after I retire.

    What a memory jerker, I can remember being a child and watching the SS Great Britain being towed under the Clifton suspension bridge when it came back in 1970.

    Hi Amy and Wes. Thanks for sharing your sightseeing in Bristol. You looked like you all had fun in the museum. I really felt sorry for you Wes as I have a fear of crossing bridges and going on balconies too. My favourite line from the video was from Wes “Think vertigo wasn’t enough, shall we add some claustrophobia “ Felt for you Wes, but you faced your fear anyway.👍🏼👏 Hope you’re having a lovely Easter. Take care. Nick
