World’s Longest Glass Bridge, 590ft High, Opens In China – Tourists Too Scared To Walk It

 A terrifying wooden bridge in China has just been replaced by a glass one. This, the world’s longest glass-bottomed walkway, is located in Shiniuzhai Geopark in Hunan, and spans 300m (984f) and is 180m (590f) above ground. The floor is made of double-layered glass that is 24mm (0.94in), and is reportedly 25 times stronger than regular window glass.

The bridge had previously been made of wood, linking the two peaks of Stone Buddha Mountain, but 11 engineers working 12 hours a day converted it to glass. Previously, you were considered brave if you steeled yourself to cross the wooden walkway; now, with its glass bottom, the bridge is already being referred to as “hero bridge.”

The fiscal and monetary response to the coronavirus pandemic has been emergent, global, and deep. Some countries have more sophisticated fiscal and monetary tools—and the ability to use them swiftly—than others. The ability to compare policy actions fairly may be key to learning how officials around the world could improve responses to the next global financial catastrophe. Work done recently by dozens of Harvard Business School students under Alberto Cavallo, the Edgerley Family Associate Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School, may provide the most detailed guide yet. “SEEING THE BREADTH OF DIFFERENT POLICIES AND THE DIFFERENT STAKEHOLDERS THAT THEY TOUCH WAS SURPRISING." Cavallo, in searching for a way to explore a once-in-a-lifetime global event like the worldwide economic response to COVID-19, decided to enlist a sophisticated workforce already at his fingertips: Harvard MBA students.
