Glass is more flexible than most folks think.
Beyond that ... if you can get past ogling the girl in Post #1, you’ll notice that the bridge is a steel structure with glass panels for a deck. I wouldn’t want to be on it in a major earthquake, but the glass panels themselves would be the least concern.

The second was lower, but jerk college kids thought it was fun to jump up and down. Sounds like the idiots who jump up and down in the elevator to scare their girlfriends...my wife and I were in the same elevator on our way up the Empire State Building. Not funny.

Ill hazard to guess its MUCH less than a 1000 meters above the ground. Yeah... like falling 500 meters would not be as bad.

“Yeah... like falling 500 meters would not be as bad. “
Maybe a hundred feet in the air at best (though of course still a deadly fall).

The Walkway is a 260 meter Cliffside passage suspended over a canyon at 1080 meters above sea level.
So... the bottom is 260 meters away.
