When I lived in Michigan, the worst experience I had on a bridge was the first time crossing the Mackinac Bridge to Mackinac Island. Crossing it at night it was pitch black on both sides of the bridge. So I didn’t know we were on a bridge until I saw the first main suspension part, which was dimly lit and creepy looking. I was petrified going across it because there was nowhere to stop or pull over and it was really long. Yikes!

I don’t have a problem with bridges as long as they’re not too high up. How high is that Michigan bridge? I heard nice things about Mackinac Island. I’d like to take my girl there but if that bridge is high as hell, that might pose a problem Lol.

It’s sort of high. Yes, it’s lots of fun. I enjoyed it.

The Mackinac Bridge is only 200 feet above the water.

Sort of???
200 feet is more than 10 stories up. On a bridge where I can’t pull over or turn around and can’t see shit at night, with a height phobia? Forget it Lol

Well, it's a bridge. It's five miles long. It's not going to be 10 feet above the water. But, if you still want to visit Mackinac Island, you can take a ferry from the shore without crossing the bridge.
