The bridge is in Bridgeton, Indiana. Bridgeton is located in Parke County. Parke County is the Covered Bridge Capital of the world, it has more covered bridges than any other county in Indiana.

The height of the jump was not why this video was posted. This jump was done to celebrate the building of a new covered bridge. The original covered bridge had been built in the 1800 and it was destroyed by fire. The community came together to finance and build this bridge. Generations of local residents had jumped off of the old bridge. The builders of the bridge were given the honor of making the first jump off of the new bridge.
