The heart-punding event of the Francis Key bridge in Baltimore put the emergency services' search and rescue skills to the test. The emergency services must move heaven and earth to find the missing people.

Only 6 people doing the maintenance of the bridge at the time of collapse have been accounted for. What about those in moving vehicles on the bridge at the time of the disaster?Something doesn't add up.Condolences to the members of bereaved families.

Reading "moves heaven and earth" reminds me of an idiom which reads as the following, "To leave no stone unturned." I believe it's also applicable here, isn't it? Thanks a million for your efforts!

Similar to the Suez Canal, Baltimore also requires local specialists to navigate the ship till it reaches its destination. The ship that struck the Baltimore Bridge was commanded by two white American captains! Despite a technological malfunction, the Indian crew on board sent out an SOS signal that ultimately saved thousands of lives.

@Charlieson294 2 месяца назад

Why stress, that the captains were white? 😅

From what is known so far, it seems that this port is less oriented and signposted than the parking lot of a shopping mall or supermarket. Don't have signal buoys? Although they are hampered at night by city lights. Are there no navigation charts with a channel or route to be taken?

Heart-pounding= a stressful situation Move heaven and earth=make efforts to achieve something Put something to the test= find out how something works

@joseaugustofigueiredo2796 2 месяца назад

Something in the air happened in Brazil, remembering the collision between Gol flight 1907 and the Legacy plane taken by American pilots, where 154 people died. The question remains. How to hold someone from the country of superheroes responsible?

😊 They're slightly different. 'Move heaven and earth' means to work hard to accomplish something, whereas 'go to town' means to do something enthusiastically.
