Pearl Jam's Oceans Video: Not Filmed in North Vancouver

pearljam

I recently posted the video for The Tragically Hip's new single, "Yer Not the Ocean".  There's a suspension bridge featured in the video that I'm trying to identify.  A couple of commenters think it's the Capilano Suspension Bridge in North Vancouver but I disagree.

Below is a picture of the Capilano Suspension Bridge and beside it is a screen cap from the "Yer Not the Ocean" video.  As you'll see, they're two different bridges.

Unfortunately, Ontario tourism wasn't clever enough to post their "There's No Place Like This" ad on YouTube so I can't share it, but if you've seen it you'll have seen a suspension bridge that might just be the one in the Hip video.  If you know where this bridge is, let me know in the comments.

Speaking of Ocean songs and videos, Pearl Jam's "Oceans" is still awesome.  Here's the video.
