A historic steel bridge in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam is set to be partially dismantled all for billionaire Jeff Bezos

A Dutch bridge will be partly dismantled to allow a super-yacht built for Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to pass through.

Mr Bezos’s gigantic $485 million dollar yacht is too big for the iconic bridge which was built in 1878.

The decision has angered some in the Netherlands after the local council promised it would never be dismantled.
