Um, the video is a rendering, yet it said "aerial photography" in the upper corner. Hm.

Funny. I googled the bridge, went to the Wikipedia page, it said it was only 16 miles over water, much shorter than the causeway--then when I reloaded the page someone had edited that out. Go China!

Why is the area where the bridge should be blotted out on satellite view? Every purported video and photo I've seen so far are low resolution and look like CAD renderings.

The apartment block where I live in was made in China. Typical life expectancy is 5-8 years before it gets demolished.

Google Maps never shows any detail over large expanses of water, it always looks kind of blotted out.
