Big-time mistake to not do so.



Sounds like the "swinging bridge" was a step up though if you were humping something heavy across and someone got it to swaying a bit it could get exciting. Now I'm wondering if this could have been the same place; the bridge we used was supposedly not that old but I can't recall how they described the previous iterations. This was late 60's I would say.
