Is this bridge in Indiana made from blown up pieces of the original Ferris wheel?
In 1893, Chicago was hoping to make an attraction that would surpass the Eiffel Tower's success at the Paris World's Fair. George Ferris designed the very first Ferris wheel, and Hoosier Luther Rice built it. Though it was incredibly popular, it soon fell out of favor. Inevitably it was destroyed after the St. Louis World's Fair in 1906. Legend claims that pieces of that original Ferris wheel were used to make a bridge in northern Indiana. After investigating the site of Dunn's Bridge, the Across Indiana team takes a road trip to The Chicago History Museum to see if the Hoosier tall tale could be true.
