Chinese tourists scream after glass-bottom walkway cracks under their feet

A group of Chinese tourists were left screaming in terror yesterday on the side of a 3,540 ft high cliff after a glass pane on a new transparent walkway suddenly shattered.

A visitor posted pictures of what she claimed was the cracked glass on Chinese social media. She said she could feel the shake under her feet the moment when the glass broke.

The U-shaped platform is attached to a cliff face on Yuntai Mountain, Henan Province, and opened to the public on September 20. Authorities have confirmed the incident and closed the tourist attraction for repair works. See more pics below
