We’re not kidding either. Located in China’s Hubei province and dubbed “Siduhe Grand Bridge“, this gargantuan suspension bridge (once completed) will smash the current record for highest deck-to-ground distance held by the Royal Gorge Bridge in Colorado (1, 053ft) and could fit the Empire State Building underneath it and still have 360 feet to spare - yikes! But there’s more…

So you’ve erected the enormous towers on each side of the deep valley, deeper than any valley previously bridged. How do you get a pilot cable from one tower to the next? Previous solutions have included: attaching the cable to a kite and flying it over (e.g. Niagara Falls suspension bridge), carrying one end by helicopter (e.g. Akashi Kaikyo bridge) and floating one end on a boat (e.g. Brooklyn Bridge). The brains behind the Siduhe Bridge decided to ignore all those options and break another record instead. They attached the 3,200ft cables to rockets and accurately fired them over the valley, becoming the first people to do so.

See images of the rockets and construction below. It only took four years to get this far and the final stages are in the works.

Just this past Saturday, the long-awaited, painted KRINK x Nike AF1 released at select accounts, including the Nike Sportswear 21 Mercer flagship store in NYC. As you can see above, there was a swarm of dedicated KRINK/AF1 fans braving the semi-cold weather for a fresh pair of kicks. And if you thought there wasn’t any bonuses for standing in line for hours, the first 30 people received an unannounced signed copy of KRINK’s book, and a bunch of people got specially packaged NSW (Nike Sportswear) x KRINK markers as well as NSW x KRINK T-Shirts - next time, don’t sleep! Peep more photos of all the action (and shoes) below, including a detailed look at KRINK’s finished drip-art that we showcased a couple weeks ago.
