HOMO ZAPIENS (VIKTOR PELEVIN) AND THE MYTH OF THE RESONANCE IN BRIDGES

-         - Do you know what resonance is?

-         - More  or less

-         - Well then: if a battalion of soldiers marches across a bridge in step, then the bridge can easily collapse- there have been cases- and so when a colum crosses a bridge, the soldiers are ordered to march out of step

It´s a very ugly thing to point out mistakes, something that we don´t want to do in this blog. Ever worse it´s to show exagerations like this, beautiful but fake. Bridges like Tacoma´s felt down because os several causes, not only resonance.

Lont time ago before Tacoma, they said a bridge in Brougthon collapsed because soldieres were marching on it, and Napoleon was known for asking his soliers to march out when they cross a bridge.
