I once thought of a bridge scenario. It went like this: There is a bridge. Someone, a man, wants to find out whether it will break down in the future. So he keeps driving his car over it. It doesn't break. So he rents a larger car which weighs more, but still the bridge does not break down. He continues this with larger and larger vehicles until the bridge finally breaks down. An interesting part is that the closer we get to the break down of the bridge, the more justified is the man's belief that it will not break. Another interesting thing is that we would not conclude like the man did in real life,
