No, definitely not Big T (http://www.bridgemeister.com/pic.php?pid=1991) - not enough detail to the architecture.
Also, there are deciduous trees that are turning yellow (Aspens?). I will guess that this bridge is in the foothills of the northern Sierra Nevada. In fact, it looks like the bridge that I visited with some Bay Area friends for some illegal bungee jumping twenty years ago. I don't know exactly where it is, but the last town we passed through was Angels Camp.

On edit: shoot, no that's not it! Big T Narrows bridge has a much smaller arch to it, now that I compare the two...
I think Matt's got it. I was wondering how they got some of the shots - from eye level of the top of the bridge, but from down-canyon. But there is that little platform on the canyon wall there. That would get that angle.

No, not AFH. Look at the top of the arch - there's no gap in the concrete, like in the video. And the tops of the columns in the video do not have a flare to them.
