Leap of Faith: The Annual Bridge Day at New River Gorge

Bridge Day, an annual event at the New River Gorge National Park in Fayetteville, West Virginia, pulls in thousands of spectators to watch brave BASE jumpers leap from the over 800-foot New River Gorge Bridge. This adrenaline-fueled tradition, described by participants as the 'Superbowl of BASE jumping,' marks its 45th anniversary, attracting over 80,000 visitors each year.
