It's not bouncy, your head is bobbing because those big ears are catching wind.

If I remember right it was an engineering firm from Calgary that took on the project and there are a couple of documentaries out there on the building of it. They are quite interesting.

The building company was ((Jack is going to love this)) "Straight Crossing" from Denmark. I thought they engineered it also, but honestly, I'm not sure.

No fair looking stuff up. LOL Must have just been the Svanen that was from Denmark. From the name, that's a pretty safe bet.

I remembered there were some big write ups in the papers around here about all the different aspects of what had to happen for it to work and that the company was from here. I had to look it up as it was awhile ago.
