is not natural. There are people who care to drive the roots, so that they form those bridges. So much so that some are even paved, albeit crudely.

sagnikarmakar In reply to Strige [2011-08-02 07:47:22 +0000 UTC]

no dude!! I read a journal that there used to be land before but due to an earthquake in 1897 this crack was formed!! As 90% of both these tree's root are in the land so these trees didn't fall apart but the local ppl maintain it by cleaning the path & not allowing any type of vehicles not even cycles!!!

Yhis is some crazy badass nature thing. Seriously, a bridge made of roots, is even more cooler than a bridge made of rainbow.
