The road to nowhere! Norwegian bridge gives motorists a fright (but don't worry, it's just an optical illusion)

It's enough to make even the most fool-hardy of motorists turn their car around. But this apparent road to nowhere is merely an optical illusion dubbed the drunken bridge.

Situated on the west coast of Norway on the Atlantic Road, the Storseisundet Bridge is so dramatically shaped it has featured in television adverts.

It sits on the five-mile long road which was constructed in 2005 and has become hugely popular with tourists

Not so scary: The bridge seen from a different angle is much less intimidating

Be a good picture if you could get a nova on the lip at that angle, would look like it was about to disappear into nothing.

Oh wait. Don't need the bridge for that to happen lol
