tells you a secret. Psychologists have found that when a person stands on a shaking suspension bridge and becomes afraid, if another person approaches him, he will be more likely to believe and rely on this person than usual. This phenomenon is called " suspension bridge effect ". So, from this phenomenon, can you see a certain feature of suspension bridge ?
First, let’s introduce the suspension bridge. Suspension bridge, also known as suspension bridge, consists of 6 parts: bridge tower, suspension cable, suspension boom, anchor ingot, stiffening beam, and bridge deck, and suspension cables are used as the main load-bearing component. To give the simplest example, a suspension bridge is like a steel wire hanging in the air when walking a tightrope in the acrobatic troupe. The difference is that there are suspension cables on the suspension bridge to withstand gravity, while the actors walking the tightrope need to maintain their own balance. The designer of the knowledge window
Golden Gate Bridge is named Joseph Strauss. If you visit the Golden Gate Bridge now, you can also see statues sculpted for him on the bridgehead to commemorate him. In fact, the suggestion of building a suspension bridge on the rushing Kinmen Strait was not accepted by everyone at the beginning. Everyone thought it was a fantasy, but Strauss did not give up. Instead, he spent four and a half years studying and practicing hard, and finally successfully built this famous suspension bridge on May 27, 1937. Because of this, Strauss became a highly respected bridge builder.
When it comes to walking tightropes, we will naturally feel fear. No matter what, the state of hanging in the air is enough to make people scare. Of course, walking on a suspension bridge is definitely much safer than walking on a tightrope, but if you look under the bridge, you will also feel scared, so you always hope that someone around you will be brave enough for yourself, which creates a "suspension bridge effect".
Do you know where the most famous steel suspension bridge in the world is? In the United States, it is the Golden Gate Bridge flying on the Golden Gate Strait in San Francisco. This bridge has the world's tallest bridge tower with a main span of 1298m. However, this bridge is considered ominous because it is the suspension bridge with the highest suicide rate. Why do you say so? Because from the completion of the suspension bridge until now, more than 2,000 suicides have come here to end their lives, and people even complain that the bridge is "made specifically for suicides."
