Where is your humanity And your sympathy and concern for the people that were killed from the😢 bridge? The media is spending more time about the bridge and not those that were on the bridge.
Bottom line : This accident should not have taken place. Poor judgement period & the owner of the cargo carrier needs to be accountable. No excuse in this day & time. Sorry for the souls lost if any. No excuse.
@@ChadAV69you must not have seen it like I did. I am a 28 year veteran who went fishing and saw it with my own f’n eyes! There was an explosion and the bridge started going down! Don’t care what any of you imbeciles missed!
Your comment is stupid ,no power no control, why didn't the bridge have protection around it to avoid this ever happening again don't rebuild the bridge build a tunnel it's safer, six people killed a tragedy, it could have been a lot worse,😢
@@originalhuggies9740ya that stank to high heaven, this looks like a legitimate screwup I’m a ironworker & watched the footage of the crash forwards, backwards, slow, stop motion & fast, sometimes a crash is just a crash, sometimes it’s the deepstate stealing all a Republics gold
@@deborahkoller9463 The bridge was built in 78, it's not that old at all. But the State should've put protection in front of the piers. Furthermore, ships have to move 24/7. I'm not sure how daylight would've changed anything, but probably caused many many many more deaths
Ding ding ding... I just wrote a longer version of your comment before I saw yours...Blessings... what do yap know, someone else with two functioning brain cells.
It was having electric problems in port,so why wasn't it shadowed by tugs when it left the dock,and made sure it got through the bridge safely.Incompentense in the first degree.
Cause it passed inspection before it departed and deemed sea worthy. These ships go through inspection upon arrival and prior to departure. Much like truckers having to do pre trip and post trip inspections.
All that are affected by this, my gosh, must be tens of thousands considering there are cars and boats without passage, and it's gonna be a while. All that cargo, perishable goods, new cars that will be not delivered on time. And all those ships now trapped in and out of the harbor.
Refused treatment?? That’s sus. There better be a extensive investigation into this and all workers and ship crew needs to be fully investigated as well!!! Explosion??? Hmmm 🤔 Justice for the people whom lost their lives and for their families ✊🏻
Idk about that. My friends and I got into a car crash (car completely totaled). When I called 911 I was bleeding from my mouth and didn't know it was just from a busted lip. The cop that responded canceled the ambulance because we said we didn't really need it.
They'll probably pull the whole thing back to shore. But they need to remove the debris thats surrounding it and on top of it. Now they've got to get the big cranes out. But assess the safety of moving all that metal. Plus being mindful of any bodies that may still be there. 😢
@@user-fe1jh1yf4c ,. It's a fact. It's not rated in the top 15 in the US, and only 9th on the East Coast. And, I mean 9th by far. Millions of TEUs behind.... Automobiles? I'd say Savannah, and Charleston handle the most, with two major Auto manufacturing facilities located in Chattanooga , and the Georgia/Alabama border just West of Atlanta. And they're both further West than Baltimore, with better Interstate access. Yep, once again Biden is lying to America. I'm pretty sure the Wilmington,.NC port handles more TEUs than Baltimore. He's just trying to get the Government to fund 100% of the cost to rebuild this bridge,.because Maryland is too broke to fund it. He needs to get the owners of that ship to fund that bridge. SINGAPORE.....
More concerned about the bridge being out then the people missing, they all talked about the workers on the bridge but nothing about the people in the cars that was on the bridge
The only people on the bridge at the time of impact were the highway workers. Total of 8 2 were rescued. 2 were recovered and 4 still buried under rubble per last NTSB press briefing.
They had 1 hour and 24 minutes to call for tug boats which is required by law to see the large carriers past the ports and bridges They had 1 hour and 24 minutes to drop an anchor. They hay 1 hour and 24 minutes to close the bridge. Even a 3rd grade cave man can figure this out. This act of terrorism came straight from ziden.
The reconstruction of this bridge will be requiring millions of dollars of federal funding thank you Joe Biden it will put thousands of people to work thank you Joe Biden we are going to build back better
Would a sloping barrier around the columns stop the ships momentum? The ship would have to slide up the barrier moving against gravity with a barrier in front of the bridges column.
How much time between this mayday call and the collision? Where is the ship captain? What does he say? How soon will the debris be cleared up allowing ships to pass?
2”. The ship’s captain was not navigating and in charge, a harbor pilot was, he made the mayday call. They think the channel will be cleared in just a few days.
I don't know what kind of seems weird and if you look at the video there's so much time why didn't they drop the anchor and it looks like the power came on before it hit the bridge
They did drop it you dope. The emergency generator came on which does not allow them to use the rudder. There wasn’t a lot of time to stop when you think of how heavy that ship was and the momentum behind it going 8 knots.
The six victims have been found the bridge was built in the '70s The cargo ships were much smaller if it were to be built today it would not be up to code when they rebuild it they'll have to build it to withstand the size of cargo ships today. The black smoke was them trying to throttle back it was not an explosion
That's the stupidest comment of the day. You don't like relying on overseas products? Why did you allow the government to set it up this way? Even things made in America are now China owned. And FYI relying on ships dates back to the 1600's 🙄
@jamestang, thanks clinton, obama, & biden for letting all these greedy company ship manufacturing to china, cheap,labor, from children, & human labor camps, causing all that shipping traffic to bring ths throw away goods back to america where there are no repair shops to repair them,so throw it in the trash & ship it back to china to be recycled in container ships & hope they dont knock down any more bridges on their way out,while FJB promises goverment tax payer,s will pay for all damages encountered. The amsrican way. WOW❤
No! Are you one of those? Conspiracy theorist? That ship was loaded superbly with the exact correct amount of containers containing the exact correct contents. How do you think it knocked down one of the world's longest bridges and didn't lose one container?
Port will be open in a few weeks once they clear the channel of the debris. The bridge will take years. The skyway in Tampa suffered similar fate and it took a total of 7 years from collision to completion of new bridge.
Hopefully they can put in a temporary ferrys boat until it gets rebuild for the the bridge fixed so these folks can go to work and the current president can help expedite that process to minimize the damage and help facilitate the process
Thankfully that number seems to be in the single digits. The ship sent off a mayday right before the collision and they were able to clear the bridge because of that. There were some construction workers still on the bridge unfortunately, but all ingoing traffic had been stopped thankfully.
@lori4804 those 6 people are believed to be construction workers that were on the bridge. Why aren't they mentioning cars that fell in the water? Don't tell me none did, that is impossible
It looked like they lined up on the bridge support and hit the gas to get the most speed they could. Is this a terrorist attack, and they are trying to cover it up
"Accident waiting to happen ! Where are the protective pylons? You know concrete islands filled with dirt, like practically every other bridge! Any shipping lane Bridge MUST have protective burms/islands to protect from just this. Any suspension bridge is vulnerable in the entire suspension and the counter leavers... see how it is one unit. Mess with any part of it and it all goes down. Simple cheap triangle (like the bow of a ship) should be in front and behind (both directions) of Every support and counter leavers. In short this could have, should have been averted... no excuse!!
Is this our titanic moment 😢 smh i promise you something aint right with this whole incident and they dont even care bout the folks who was immediately effected 😢 I smell political rats😢😢😢😢
Where was the br😢bridge worker when this cargo ship was getting aligned to pass & the cameras that are in place to avoid any miss guide through. Sorry.....this should have been avoided.
Wait till daylight? Oh like don't have waterproof LED lights... I've got 10 or more two on my Case SkidLoader which I use in the rain at night all the time... $30 for 4 of them at Costco $45 for two super ones with magnet in handle.... "Light it up"!!!!! EVERYTHING THAT HAS LIGHTING, EMERGENCY VEHICLES AND VESSELS SHOULD HAVE A DOZEN OF THEM.... NO EXCUSE!!!!!
Was this cargo ship carrying explosive material & if so why was it not guided. A full investigation to be is fully warranted.PEROID. loose power....Hmmm.
There's no explosion in the video. Stop spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories. Your idiocy feeds the idiocy of others. You're making the world a worse place by opening your mouth.
Gud time to make it easier for truckers to get their hazmat endorsement seeing how u can't take it more than once every 3 weeks since everyone is unemployed and they don't have anything else to do how about yall pay companys to give practice tests 😂
