Bridge Over the RIVER KWAI.. Foot trafrfic "Out of the Way Please.
See The 2x4 holding the waiting til train passes PLATFORM... Only a 2x4 Holding it up... 50 feet to water....WOW
This is a famous bridge in Kanchanaburi, Thialand. It's a memorial to the POWs who lost their lives building it for the Japanese. Americans, Brits, Aussies, allied forces alike were all brought here under horrific circmstances and forced to construct the bridge until they either died or were killed. Safety isn't much of a consideration to this day. There are no hand rails on the bridge and people walk across it every day. I'm surprized more people don't plummet into the dangerous waters more often.
