Ever hike across suspension bridges before?

These hikers have too but were not aware of the impending doom this time.

Witness these hikers plunge off a suspension bridge when a cable fails.

Many of us have hiked over suspension foot bridges. They react with our footsteps and bounce up and down merrily on our journey across. This one did not.

In a video shared by Adrien Whistle we see four French hikers in New Zealand that are out for a great backpacking trip. All would have been great if the suspension bridge had not failed.

Check out the scary footage of the accident. What do you think was going through their minds during this terrifying ordeal?
