    RE: robin

    The original Bridge of Sighs is in Venice. It was called the bridge of sighs because condemned prisoners would cross over on their way to be executed. I could post a picture but I don't think it's a possible site because it appears to be only about 30 feet high from the postcard I have.

    There seems to be a copy built in Cambridge, UK.

    RE: robin

    I did a quick web search. Check out:

    http://europeforvisitors.com/venice/...e_of_sighs.htm

    for the one in Venice. As Skypuppy mentioned, there seems to be a couple as well in the UK:

    There also seems to be one in Allegheny County, PA:

    None of these appear to be jumpable. Have I missed one that is?

    RE: robin

    Yes, I confirm that the original Bridge of Sighs is in Venice and is about 10 m high, and it is over water.
    So you do not even need a BASE rig to jump it, but only a swimming suit!!!!! :D
