The US$4.5 billion apples and the $800,000 peanuts.
The expensive apples does not float on the water and is attached to 77 concrete pontoons.
" The new bridge was designed to be more stable in stronger winds and raised the bridge deck much higher above the surface of the lake than the old bridge.
The floating bridge is laid atop 77 concrete pontoons that float above the water and are secured by 58 anchors to the lake bottom.[32] "
