Paris offering unique view of Eiffel Tower from ‘bouncy trampoline bridge’

Tweet

Melbourne, Oct 18: Visitors to Paris could soon be bouncing across the River Seine on a giant inflatable trampoline bridge, to get a unique view of the Eiffel Tower.

Paris-based architectural company AZC proposed the wacky idea as part of a local design competition, News.com.au reported.

The blow-up crosswalk will be featuring giant trampolines at the centre of three 30-metre-round sections. The bridge will be held together with a cord and will be filled with 3700 cubic metres of air.

Under the right amount of tension, the sides of each section flip up to keep thrillseekers from falling over the bridge.

The architectural company said the bridge is “dedicated to the joyful release from gravity as one bounces above the river”.

The design of the bridge is more sustainable and environmentally friendly than constructing a new one. (ANI)
