In Dumbarton, Scotland there is a small bridge over a 50 foot drop where dogs have an uncontrollable urge to jump to rocky area below. No one knows why but many have their own beliefs; the spirit of a woman who lost the love of her life, a place between heaven and earth, or the smells of animals attracting dogs to leap to their deaths?

Find out the stories behind the Overtoun Bridge also known as Dog Suicide Bridge on today's episode of Myths, Mysteries, & Monsters.
