In good weather, the five-mile stretch offers breath-taking scenery along the Scandinavian country’s western coast.But when the weather takes an ugly turn, cars are lashed by powerful wind gusts and pounded by large waves that send frigid water crashing over barricades or the rocky shore.With stormy skies above and turbulent waters below, the nearly four-minute video shows the daunting journey from a driver’s point of view.One of the most popular spots on the route is its iconic Storseisundet Bridge, known locally as ‘the drunk bridge’ due to its unusual appearance.It has been featured in advertisements and lures thousands of tourists each year to a route that has been hailed as one of the world's best for a holiday road trip.Now 25 years old, Atlantic Ocean Road passes through an archipelago as it links mainland Norway with the island of Averoy, and is one of the country’s official national tourist routes.Over the six years that it took to construct, workers struggled with the region's wild weather and were interrupted by 12 hurricanes, according to the country's tourist bureau.  There are several tourist stops along the way, including the Kvernes Stave Church, the Bremsnes Cave and popular fishing spots, although the road and its rocky shore have a dangerous reputation.In 2013, an Israeli tourist was swept away after he fell into the sea while admiring the view from the roadside.
