Donβt know if anyone was watching the news but a cargo ship in Baltimore collided with a bridge and took the whole thing down.
It sounds horrific.
Fucking hell that's so bad... How could someone not realise they were about to hit a fucking bridge?!?!
Montague st bridge says hi.
omg the ship was adrift https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/1bo12nv/the_francis_scott_key_bridge_in_baltimore_md_was/
Holy shit... Someone asleep at the wheel in the worst way
Hhhooly shit. That footage is something else. How does that happen?!
Ohh...when you look at the YouTube footage...there's a car with flashing lights. It stops the cars on the bridge a few mins prior. The right thing. But ... Just sitting there....if they'd stopped them before the bridge...
Sorry. Thats a lot. My heart hurts
That bridge was about a third longer than the West Gate, with a similar clearance height. Nutty.
Saw the footage on abc news Just In. Wholly schmowlly. Stuff of nightmares.
