Hi everyone! Currently in Porto and I have one question, isn’t the side bar at the top of the Luís 1 bridge a little low? It’s like 1.2m high, I feel like a small bump from someone could knock the other person over the edge to their death. It’s a 85m high fall.

  2. well if you don’t push anyone off the bridge it will be alright

  4. how tall are you? If you’re 1,90 or 2 meters tall it may feel low for you.

  6. yet, more than 100 years till today and the people that fell was by acts of suicidal

  9. It’s considered good luck to fall to your death in that bridge.

  10. Portuguese people are like 1.50m tall, so that 1.2m is really safe

  11. Never heard about Tripas à Moda do Porto? Where do you think we get them from?

  12. You’re in one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal and what you’re thinking about is committing suicide?

  13. People were shorter in 1881 😁

    Studies show that the Portuguese grew an average of 13 centimeters on average in the last century.

  14. Portuguese law requires all safety bars and railings to be at least 1.10m high, so 1.20 is perfecty legal.

  15. Let me say, walking across that bridge at 12 am with heavy rain was one of the sketchier things I’ve done here but I didn’t die so I guess it’s safe

  16. We like living on the edge, we also use our phones in gas stations.

  17. Regulations indicate 1,10m minimum so it’s quite legal 😁.

  18. Don’t stay too much in Portugal. Just read the comments and learn that Portuguese people are stuck in their ignorance. 

    Learn also that public services and infrastructures will be maintained at the minimum viable. This is valid for public transportation, streets, hospitals and so on. 

    And Portuguese people have a very bad taste. Did you see Campanhã station? Wtf concrete box, horrendous layout, ugly ass design, terrible benches. 

    Something happened after our great leader Salazar died. Now society is really poor.
