Galloping Gertowski

[Batman]

Wild video here. Russian authorities had to close a bridge over the Volga River when melting snow loosened a piling, and it started swaying. Rippling, really. Not as bad as the infamous Galloping Gertie from back in the day, but still awesome to watch.

Gertowski is Polish; Gertowsky is Russian.

At one point, you can see some guy walking on the bridge. What a nut.
