James May crossing his meccano bridge in Liverpool across the Mersey (actually a canal). He's nuts! lol...what a star! He then crosses his bridge, but cheats with a harness.
Can they stop switching camera every half second. I'm getting sea sick.

If you are american, you might know them as Erector, they were popular in the 70s and 80s. If that still doesn't ring a bell, then it is like crossing a bridge made of Legos... that's the demography that these toys are originally targeted for.

It was still Meccano, but most that would recall that are are in their seventies to eighties; Meccano was the Lego of the day back in 1935-55. Erector was the American knock off.

@TheG645 I'm not sure if you ever used Meccano, but it is normally used for making bridges that are no more than 20-30cm. What James May did was usthe very same meccano, but lots of it, to make a massive bridge. Pity he had the safety harness, I'd have loved to see him tumble into the canal if the test had failed.

20 feet high? As James said in the book, the bridge was 20 feet above the water level of the canal, and the water level of the canal is low enough that falling in would be like falling onto concrete. From 20 feet high. If you can't imagine it, I would suggest going there for oneself, then you can appreciate the scale. For the record, I have done so.

Come off it, I mean, I'm a bit drunk, but that wasn't very impressive. I mean I could do that. Just the other day I was walking down Cobbler Creek, and there was a torrent about 7 ft across that stopped me in my tracks. So I got a big stick from the path, heaved it across the stream, and crossed that rickety branch like a champion. And who was there to film me? Certainly not BBC. And I bed I had a lot more fun that James. Ah well, I can't say I wasn't entertained enough to watch the whole video. Pretty impressive I guess, but then, it is only mechano.

For all I know it could have been a school competition to construct a Mechano bridge capable of carrying a human being.. If that's the case, this is impressive. If adult human beings were responsible, it leaves something to be desired, I think.
