Apparently, this is not the second highest Hudson crossing bridge to the George Washington. I don’t believe it – when I was crossing it felt like it was 😂
-
Okay here it is! Very cool, I like the scenery, felt like I was there…and I don’t mind heights so I liked it! Is this your actual voice or some kind of AI made up voice?
-
it is actually a very nice bridge. in fact, i have another video of another bridge I crossed. i’ll upload it some other time. and yes, this is my real voice. i’m feeling ill at the moment so i didn’t want to type stuff out and just decided to do a voiceover as the day was about to end without me posting

I like hearing you say “y’all” lol…I only ever hear that on tv, I didn’t know ppl actually say it 🤭☺️

Oh and hope you feel better fast!

thanks CJ !

Oh wow!! Haha 😆 that’s crazy so how did it feel when you crossed over it?
-
golly, i was scared to pieces Laura. but then, i realized i’d have to drive another 20 miles to avoid the bridge getting back to where i needed to be so i had to drive back through that same bridge and ended up pissing off another dozen or so people 😂
-
A crazy story no doubt 🤣 😆
-
-
-
So how did you get back? Did you have to go through the bridge again?
-
LOL u guessed correctly Iba – and I ended up making another dozen people angry at my slow driving 😂
-
Oh my gosh, the slow driving would’ve just spiked your anxiety, you should’ve tried the F1 🤣
-

-
I hope you found your way back without having to go back over the bridge! 🤔😅
-
unfortunately i had no choice Sara, i had to drive through it again and made enemies out of more drivers lol 😂
-
Hehe…🥹😅

I empathize with your fear of heights. Driving on switchbacks up mountains is horrifying as are bridges that sway in the wind. Great video, Michael. 🙂
-
yes to the switchbacks and overall heights! glad I could share the experience Nancy. the Hudson River crossings are beautiful though, i have another video of another bridge I crossed. I’ll put that one up one day!
-
-
I look forward to it. 🙂
-
Wow, but you got on the horse for the video, without, I presume, any financial incentive?
-
if, the horse, you mean the bridge, yeah – unfortunately, there was no u-turn exit after the off ramp so not only did i have to do the bridge that time in the video but i had to go back through it a few minutes later simply because a non bridge route would tack an hour onto the trip 😢
-
And I take it none of this did anything to reduce your anxiety level? I had a friend in college who had a medical phobia. That sh*t’s real. 🙁

no, i was actually going to make an addendum before but just decided to post the video. i remember when I was young, i fell off of a relatively high ledge (it’s a miracle i survived) but i believe that was where this fear stemmed from. it’s crazy. but i really do avoid bridge routes if i can. the only reason i can do the George Washington or the Golden Gate is because they are all relatively wide and the ocean just isn’t something you feel close to, if that makes sense. Crazy right?
-
I have only one experience with the Golden Gate. I was biking across it on a cheesy tourist bike (after not having been on a bike since I was like 9, and I was in my 30’s then). I was terrified to be between the traffic and the sea. But my fear is more about bicycles than heights, LOL!! It’s all about perception! 🙂
-
LOL i hear that! 😀

You’ve made it. Let that white car overtake because he’s in a hurry. It’s better to be safe.🤭
-
hehe 😀 you’re right Hazel!
-
In addition, you have a beautiful voice. Its something relaxing.
-
thank you Hazel! i always try to speak clearly in videos and i realized that in order to do so, i need to be able to control the volume of my voice – that’s why i tend to sound measured. but i’m glad I communicated clearly and smoothly 🙂
-
I think I’m gonna apply it to my videos, too. I’m too loud to speak, like in euphoria.🤭
-
i forget what it was Hazel but it was a youtube video that coached on how to speak on videos clearly for social media. i’m sure if you search on youtube there are videos on it. i believe I searched “speaking clearly” “clear voice for video” or something along those lines
-
I’m going to check it out; it’s still applicable even though I speak my own dialect. Thank you for the recommendation, Mike.
