BBC Reporter Invited To Hit Glass Bridge Panel With A Sledgehammer

Chances are people who have a fear of heights will not set one foot on the Zhangjiajie Canyon glass bridge, which is the longest and highest in the world, ever in their lifetime.

But the brave souls who don't care about the dizzying view, or the fact that the bridge is made of glass panels which sometimes crack under pedestrian weight, bet their life the bridge is safe.

And the builders of the bridge came up with a crazy way to prove to the world the Zhangjiajie is safe- they invited BBC reporter Dan Simmons to smack a glass panel with a sledgehammer.

Notice they didn't ask Dan to smash a panel already attached to the bridge- the builders are crazy, but not stupid.

That monstrosity is known as a "fatty". With a bacon handle added. Check out the smoking and bar-be-que forums online for recipes.

My husband, upon discovering the existence of such an exorbitant celebration of food that is manly, and to counter-act the mandatory visit to a French restaurant some years ago, gleefully created one of these and cooked it usng his smoker, over hickory wood.

I was disgusted. He and his friends ate it, and he's become a hero amongst the local carnivorous testosteronated crowd. So far, he has made a dozen or so of these things over the past year, each one more appalling than the last. Although the sage sausage one stuffed with provolone, gorgonzola and peppers did smell pretty darn good, I'm not touching this.

The most horrible one, however, was the one he made to appease me somewhat, and failed. Turkey bacon woven over ground turkey, and something lowfat as the stuffing the middle. Eeeww. I tasted it, and proclaimed it inedible. Even the cats wouldn't touch that one.
