In reply to dylanfraser98:
We've done a low footbridge here (5ft wide, 15-20ft of rope out). My tips:-
0) Test with a weighted rucsac or better still, 5 gallon drum of water before using a human!
1) use two ropes in a V configuration to stop you hitting things off to the side. Tie them to the anchors with locked-off italian hitches so you can lower the swinger out once they stop swinging, it's much faster than trying to prussik out. Mark the ropes so you know where to re-tie them. It's easiest to tie to anchors on the opposite side of the bridge rather than dangling over the edge working with italian hitches, but see (6).
2) Static rope between the anchors and the last point of contact with the bridge. Dynamic below that if you like.
3) pad all rubbing points thoroughly including the bottom edge of the bridge.
4) jump backwards as far as you can, if you just drop the impact of coming tight on the rope is relatively hard on a narrow bridge with relatively little rope out.
5) have a means of ab-in / rescue ready.
6) ensure nothing can come over the bridge unexpectedly.
