TAKING THE PLUNGE

Often times, we "ooh" and "ahh" at landmarks – particularly the pretty ones – without giving much thought to the history behind them. In the old town of Mostar, Boznia-Herzegovina, the Stari Most (or "Old Bridge" in english) comes with a storied past, but it's a time-honored tradition of bridge jumping that really makes it special. The custom dates back to when the bridge was originally built in the 16th century and continues today. Watch this video by DGA Productions to learn about the bridge's incredible background.
