New Orleans 4K - World's Longest Bridge - Lake Pontchartrain Causeway

9,500 concrete pilings, 5 ft wide each, across 24 miles of water! This is a little different from my driving in cities content but I couldn't resist publishing this video. I'd like to experiment with more infrastructure related videos. Let me know in the comments if you like it!
The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway is a fixed link composed of two parallel bridges crossing Lake Pontchartrain in southern Louisiana, United States. The longer of the two bridges is 23.83 miles (38.35 km) long. The bridges are supported by 9,500 concrete pilings. The two bridges feature a bascule, which spans the navigation channel 8 miles (13 km) south of the north shore.
Since 1969, it was listed by Guinness World Records as the longest bridge over water in the world; in 2011, in response to the opening of the longer Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China, Guinness World Records created two categories for bridges over water: continuous and aggregate lengths over water. Lake Pontchartrain Causeway then became the longest bridge over water (continuous) while Jiaozhou Bay Bridge the longest bridge over water (aggregate).

New Orleans is the largest city located in the Gulf Coast region of the southern United States. New Orleans is world-renowned for its french style, distinct music, Creole cuisine, unique dialect, and its annual celebrations and festivals, most notably Mardi Gras. The historic heart of the city is the French Quarter, known for its French and Spanish Creole architecture and vibrant nightlife along Bourbon Street. The city has been described as the "most unique" in the United States, owing in large part to its cross-cultural and multilingual heritage.
Tourism
New Orleans has many visitor attractions, from the world-renowned French Quarter to St. Charles Avenue, (home of Tulane and Loyola Universities, the historic Pontchartrain Hotel and many 19th-century mansions) to Magazine Street with its boutique stores and antique shops.
According to current travel guides, New Orleans is one of the top ten most-visited cities in the United States; 10.1 million visitors came to New Orleans in 2004.
A 2009 Travel + Leisure poll of "America's Favorite Cities" ranked New Orleans first in ten categories, the most first-place rankings of the 30 cities included. According to the poll, New Orleans was the best U.S. city as a spring break destination and for "wild weekends", stylish boutique hotels, cocktail hours, singles/bar scenes, live music/concerts and bands, antique and vintage shops, cafés/coffee bars, neighborhood restaurants, and people watching.
The French Quarter (known locally as "the Quarter" or Vieux Carré) contains popular hotels, bars and nightclubs. Notable tourist attractions in the Quarter include Bourbon Street, Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, the French Market (including Café du Monde, famous for café au lait and beignets) and Preservation Hall.
Founded in 1718 by the French, New Orleans was once the territorial capital of French Louisiana before being traded to the United States in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. New Orleans in 1840 was the third-most populous city in the United States. The city's location and flat elevation have historically made it very vulnerable to flooding. State and federal authorities have installed a complex system of levees and drainage pumps in an effort to protect the city.

    It's hard to understand just how long this bridge is without seeing it! I've also seen posts recently on Reddit about a certain "theory" that shall not be mentioned :) that relates to this bridge. Link below to a size comparison of bridges and a great picture from Reddit! libertycruise.nyc/packages/compendium-of-us-bridges www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/cmkrrv/this_extremely_zoomed_in_photo_of_the_lake/

    I enjoyed this bridge video because this bridge is the definitive proof that the earth is a round ball and the water over this span of 23.8 miles is curved and if you viewed it from the water level you would not see a building that was 354 ft high for perfect weather viewing. I just loved watching the things on the shore come up into view as you got closer and they came above the water horizon. If anyone is interested there are also videos of the length taken with a telescope by soundly that show the waters curvature in amazing photos.

    This bridge has survived 94 hurricanes since it was built pretty sturdy and safety checks are done daily. It even has its own coast guard and police force in the case of an emergency.

    We visit there annually and always cross this bridge on a motorcycle. Little did we know how quickly they shut this bridge down because of inclement weather. (And motorcycles are the first to be banned.) Last trip across, during May of this year, we just got onto the bridge when the rest of the traffic behind us was banned due to the rain.( Love crossing that bridge, though! It is super cool!)

    Long bridge with no shoulder for an emergency car stop. if something happens, at best, one line will be blocked and when firefighters and an ambulance arrive, the entire bridge is blocked. Imagine stuck in such a long bridge? No place for maneuver.

The band's singer Phil Anselmo grew up not far from the area we can see here if I understand what he says in an interview I have just watched, and he mentioned the longest bridge in the world. So here I am again on one of your videos! Cheers from Paris.

    Can you play 1440p resolution on your iPad ? Because I can see maximum 1080p resolution on my 2018 iPad. KZread have changed the codec of 1440p and 4K Resolutions to WebM. Earlier it used to be MP4. Now MP4 is there only for 1080p and below. And WebM takes less storage but requires more processing than MP4. That's why Google stopped WebM support on mobile devices altogether it seems.
