Now Playing: Moderate Earthquake Shakes Flexes Suspension Bridge

Description: Not exactly sure where this was recorded; S. America, perhaps? Check out the span of the bridge vibrating after a small earthquake shook the area. Would you want to be on that bridge-- or ANY bridge? Imagine being on the Golden Gate Bridge in San Fran when each quake hits! Amazingly, the bridge appears to be open and reasy for vehicular traffic immeditely after the quake. If this had been filmed in the US, or any other developed nation, the bridge most certainly would have been shut down for weeks as engineers and experts were brought in to determine whether there was any structural damage incurred as a result of the vibration and flexing.
