You step onto the catwalk with the spray in your face and the roar of the Zambezi filling the air. The bridge arches across a basalt gorge split by the river, a ribbon of steel suspended 111 meters above where water and mist meet. For four seconds you fall; then the cord catches, the world flips, and the gorge answers with a rainbow.
