- This past weekend it was really windy in San Francisco. I'm shooting a big timelapse piece on the whole city and thought this sequence was cool enough to stand alone.

Back in 1987, when the bridge turned 50, there were so many pedestrians walking across that the main span actually flattened out. Engineers did some calculating and said there was no danger.
Wow! That's really cool. Would have loved to see that happen.
I remember that quite well.
Yes there are bridges now that are bigger, taller and longer than ever before, but it was this bridge that set the bar on just how massive these types of bridges can be. Therefore the Golden Gate Bridge will always be number one in my book.
2011 "Boing boing boing boing"
2020 "WhuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUoooooooooUUUUUUUUoooooooooooooooo"
Golden Gate: "See Gertie? When you dance in the wind, you have to do it calmly."
1940 Tacoma Narrows Bridge: "Glug glug glug."
Couldn't see it until I focused my eyes at the top of the screen. That's amazing footage.
It's easy to see if you look at the line of lights on each side too.
Wow I see it if I look directly at the road towards the middle of the bridge, it moves up and down! That's crazy, and to think that this was engineered before a time when things could be simulated on a computer before construction. Amazing.
Just Cade I need to look at the line of street lights in the back to be able to see the bouncing 😉 I also found out the bridges architect was from german origin. But lets also pay tribute to the simple people and construction workers who worked their asses off to place this giant beauty safely where it sits today👍
they have to move to release the stresses from traffic and wind!
Wow! No idea it wobbled that much! Amazing!!
I remember during the 80s when the Golden Gate had to be shut down because it was swaying, Swaying noticeably. The local news set up cameras at both ends of the bridge showing the roadway undulating and rolling up and down.... strangest thing I've ever seen there. I have yet to find any footage of that....
Wow I never knew it moved that much . Been across it many times ..now I'll be looking at it especially when walking across the bridge. Lol crazy.
It flexed because I ran so fast to save the planet you couldn't even see me
Nice shot!
Trust me, the Golden Gate Bridge was windy as fuck! we were at the top of the 2nd floor bus!
I definitely know. I've ridden my bike over it many times. Sometimes I would have to walk it in the middle of the span.
Golden gate bridge will Collapse?
Gertie: Hold my beer.
Who think its fake you wrong its REAL;!
I didn‘t see it at first. But you need to focus on the red painted light „line“ that builds a bow between the big pylon in the front and the one in the back. You can see the sides of the bridge swinging up and down pretty fast! Looking into the middle of the pavement didn‘t make me see it (as someone else told to do). Liked! Unfortunately a lot of people nowadays have the attention and the observation skills span of a fish.
It flexes, but does it scratch at a level 6 with deeper grooves at a level 7 on Moh's scale of hardness?
Maybe
Where I live the Verrazano Bridge flexes more and it makes noise like from a horror movie
I wonder do the sidewalks go completely across the bridge ?🤔
They do! I've rode my bike across many times. On the west side (right side in this video), is the bike side and the opposite side is for foot traffic. Going north on the bridge, it's an easy escape from the city into the Marin Headlands.
Did you see something?
Wonder when it will collapse….
I cant see it :(
This looks like 1987
Only thing I saw move was the camera
Imagine collecting 5$ per car in a day 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
It is not gold, and I don't see any gate.
