How They Built the Golden Gate Bridge In 1933, experts said no bridge could ever span the Golden Gate strait. Violent currents, thick fog, and roaring wind made it look impossible. Engineers built it anyway. Watch how the south tower foundation was built in open ocean, how the towers rose 746 feet above the water, and how each cable was spun from more than 27,000 wires. You'll also see the safety net that caught 19 workers and why the bridge is built to sway more than 20 feet in strong wind.
