Due to the curvature of the Earth, the towers of the Humber Bridge are 4cm further apart at the top than the bottom. The engineers could not correct for this by simply tilting the towers towards one another, as the main force would no longer be perpendicular to gravitational pull. They therefore had to make corrections in fifth dimensional space, so that the towers appear perfectly parallel to observers in four dimensional space-time.
