The bridge collapse was just a reenactment of Lamar Jackson in the AFC championship game.

Crazy shit. If the fall doesn't kill the folks, falling into all sorts of twisted metal certainly will. |

I HATED driving over that bridge. I tried to avoid it every chance I had when driving from property to property unless no other option.
We have a lot of shitty bridges in this country. Piss poor infrastructure. East Coast and Midwest have a ton of steel garbage we all drive over daily. |

It would be very difficult to restore everything in that short amount of time. I would assume they lost main propulsion as they would've lost all supporting auxiliaries . They would lose hydraulic steering as well. I believe that ship was just drifting. |

When the mpls bridge collapsed, the one thing it had going for it was the low water level. save a few people, and a bus. But the drop.....another oof. And who ever said it...yes, there are a lot of shitty bridges in this country. The term used in MPLS was 'functionally deficient' |

Imagine being on that bridge in your vehicle and seeing it begin it's slow collapse and know you had no ability to get off. That's awful.
