You think your commute to work can be harrowing, how about this commute: Death Defying Commute.

That dog seems so trusting. You just know that someday...

Imagine moving to the other side of the bridge with your bed, your TV, your television, your stereo, the dog house...

I've actually used a bridge like this, before, except ours was essentially level and you had to pull yourself across.

Yikes! And I thought commuting in and out of Iraq every other day was dangerous...
