The world's longest suspended pedestrian bridge just opened in the Czech Republic.
It's called Sky Bridge 721.
Its name comes from the fact that it spans 721 meters, or roughly 2,365 feet, in length.
That's approximately 311 feet above the ground below.
Sky Bridge 721 hangs over a valley connecting two mountains in the Northeast of the Czech Republic, near the country's border with Poland.
The world's longest suspension bridge was preceded by the Arauca Bridge in Portugal, which is 516 meters or about 1,693 feet in length.
