There can be a fine line between danger and wonder. Take Norway’s Atlantic Ocean Road, for instance. It is simultaneously one of the world’s most beautiful and yet dangerous things. The 8.3km road is a cultural heritage site and the drive down it has frequently been described as ‘the world’s best road trip’. Yet when the weather turns nasty – as it so often does in that part of Scandinavia – cars are pelted hard with waves of freezing cold water. It’s pretty harsh. But yet so lovely…

The 850ft-long Storseisundet Bridge on the road offers a brain-melting optical illusion which appears to show the bridge dropping straight into the sea! Because of this, locals call it ‘The Drunk Bridge’.
