Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2008-04-04 17:35	Are you sure, 58Roadmaster? The IMDB says this was filmed in Mexico. Could it be a bridge in Mexico built to a similar design?
58Roadmaster ◊ 2008-04-04 19:53	Of course I can't be sure, Mexico it is then! Does draw one's attention to the infamous Bridge to Nowhere, however. http://www.dankat.com/advents/eastfk.htm
