My grandfather was the 2nd to the last person to drive a car on that bridge while it was “galloping”. The other one was in the middle and had to run for his (and his little dog’s) life.

I’ve gone scuba diving underneath it. Concrete blocks the size of a house. Great place for octopus hunting. Or watching.

‘Course that was more than a few years ago. LOL

I was SCUBA diving solo not long ago and had the great pleasure of flirting with a little octopus at about 30 feet, watching the chromatophores, and sort of playing with the lovely little creature. He played back - grabbing my fingers and sort of looking at me from time to time, amazed - then darted away. The whole encounter lasted maybe 15 minutes... Why I like to dive alone.
