Ponte Morandi (English: Morandi Bridge), officially Viadotto Polcevera (English: Polcevera Viaduct), was a road viaduct in Genoa, Liguria, Italy, constructed between 1963 and 1967 along the A10 motorway over the Polcevera River, from which it derived its official name. It connected Genoa's Sampierdarena and Cornigliano districts across the Polcevera Valley. The bridge was widely called "Ponte Morandi" after its structural designer, engineer Riccardo Morandi.
On 14 August 2018, a 210-metre (690 ft) section of the viaduct collapsed during a rainstorm, killing forty-three people. The collapse led to a year-long state of emergency in the Liguria region, extensive analysis of the structural failure, and widely varying assignment of responsibility.
The remains of the original bridge were demolished in August 2019. The replacement bridge, the Genoa-Saint George Bridge was inaugurated a year later. Our documentary looks at the possible causes which caused the structural failure. (i drove over that bridge quite a few times actually on my way to the French Riviera)
There is only one cause of this disaster...
The involvement of the Mafia in the building and construction industry.

Thank you ❤️
Thank you for taking me around the world with these amazing documentaries 🇯🇲
My heart goes to the people who lost their life's and to their family
thank you for FD for sharing
Given the involvement of Italy's notorious mafias in most of the country's infrastructure projects, one cannot dismiss the possibility that corners were cut during the bridge's construction. Coupled with the endemic corruption in local and national government and the repercussions with regard to inspections and maintenance and you have all the ingredients for such a disaster.
Someone failed them for sure. I don’t understand how the maintenance of this bridge didn’t see cracks. So sad😢
It's not just Italy that has infrastructure issues, the majority of countries do. It's how the organization and priority of government's deal with these potential problems.
Money needs to be spent in order to keep the public safe.
Heads should role for such horrible disasters ❗❗
Italy did a great job of rebuilding this bridge quickly and safely.
🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪👏👏
Always a pleasure being notified of a new upload.
Thanks FD crew.
Kenyans hawachelewi kwa comments
The best part...they don't understand
I love this Kenya people
I wish these two men, and others, can move on from this and let it go, just as easily as I and most of us move on from this. So they can have a, overall better quality of life.
And crack a smile for the fact they are alive today. -Blessings. Ivo.
Thank you for this
That foofily dressed engineer is part of the problem. Inspect some bridges and ignore others for 50 years... Yeah, like this one.
Another very good documentary. I always love this
my heart goes out to the lives lost😔. so sad. may their souls rest in peace.
great video, though. so informative and interesting
Thanks
Is that engineer for real? Catastrophic failure doesn’t just happen. It doesn’t take a computer diagram and a sweater vest to know that.
Isn't that more of the same in Italy? In the last 10-20 years infrastructure failure was commonplace. You have great design and terrible engineering.
Don't forget the Cravat! I kept thinking... wheerre's the Smoking Jacket & Pipe!? LOL
I felt like He was just talking in CIRCLES. Like this guy ISN'T... REALLY.. telling us Anything. WHY was SO much time spent on interviewing Him?? Showing the SAME computer generated image.... maybe it could have been this, buuutt.. it couldn't Have been THAT... then this... Buutt.. NOT That either. Why was SO much time spent on someone.. that Didn't even Really Know anything.... well.. Substantial??
@@pistolannie6500 reopen a compromised bridge right away with slapped together materials? Who does he think is going to drive over that if it was even possible?
nice video
Very informative! Appreciate the expert insights and stories.
Dam only 2 ppl survived from the top fall
This is so sad.
20:00 Even a cable stayed bridge can degrade to such a state that it would be considered to not have any redundancy. The Québec bridge isn't quite there yet, but near enough that engineers are sounding the alarm. A very large portion of the cables urgently need to be replaced.
Did it seem to anyone else... that He was kind of... talking in circles... trying Not to REALLY "commit" to One "theory" or idea?? 🤔
That Cravat... I couldn't help but think... Where's the Smoking Jacket & Pipe? LOL
There was a bridge collapse in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA early this year, like around jan-feb 2022.
"Re-open the bridge in three days"!?
Is Cavi insane?
Comparing a Roman bridge carrying Mules over the Rhine to a modern span carrying thousands of tons per hour?
i think it will be nice for you guys to show us the behind the scenes while shooting.
we also wanna see how your cameramen go through etc
Great documentary.
Well There's Your Problem did a great episode on this.
That cat lost 8 of its 9 lives in one go.
Amazing documentary❤❤❤❤
The design of this bridge is a disaster in the making. The builders are murders. Fourth generation of bridge builders. With cousins and all, some three hundred bridges. I think the bridge should never have opened.
27:20 YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
@ 36:51 You can see the cross section of a broken column or beam . . . . it is packed with red bricks!
What kind of structural concrete would ever use such a method?! It must be bricks, I can't believe
that would be part of the design . . . . no wonder it collapsed!
Michele Calvi dresses like the Italian version of Greg Feith.
Except Greg Feith knows what he is talking about.
congrats!!!? great documentary
For a BRIDGE to collapse totally, the structural design is defective otherwise it Will not collapse.
Don't Trust Anything... Don't Trust Anybody...
Well done
Somehow it's a comfort that whole families were "wiped out" togheter. No one had to live on without each other.. seems less cruel somehow.. imagine for a kid to lose both parents just lile that in one sec. Or you being the only one to survive, your lifepartner & child are dead & you probably saw them in such a crushed up state that no one should ever see a human, less a loved one like that..
Reminds me of the Miami bridge that collapsed by the university.
everyone knows that bridges need to be repaired and upgraded every 10 years
Substandard, or corruption,
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE 'NEAR DEATH' EXPERIENCE FOR THOSE WHO CLEARED THE BRIDGE SECONDS BEFORE IT FELL! I'D HAVE NIGHTMARES AND BE VERY JUMPY FOR YEARS AFTERWARD!
I wonder if it hasn't be raining, more vehicles would be able to stop in time.
Quality problem?
that and sloppy upkeep
Was a monument ever made to honor those who passed away?
One word answer: Corruption.
So the most corrupt people in the most corrupt country overlooked the many structural problems doesn't surprise me at all. This is what you get when everyone is on the take. Bravo italy
with ads every 2 minutes, it's unwatchable.
cats are smart and can see danger coming
Awful
Nooooooooo my bridge😭😭😭😭😭😞😞😣
Too little infrastructure maintenance, too much spent on war.
GDAY .SO WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DISASTER….WHO WAS MEANT TO SERVICE THESE BRIDGES…..
Well done, Gentlemen.
maintain your roadways. why wait 120 years?
Does anyone have the official investigation report of Morandi Bridge collapse ?
I think a few to many Italians had a few to many pounds of spaghetti that day... 😢
wow!!!
The sad fact is infrastructure is easy to sell to taxpayers. Fixing things is harder to sell.
Chinese steel?
Great, but totally inappropriate music.
Governments should consider these bridges as if their own loved ones use it everyday, it will change their approach 😉
Too many ads, no conyent
Ok
neglect and local corruption led to collapse and ascot man smells his own farts as eloquently as Cesar.
Too bad you didn't get to the point of actually what whet wrong. Okay, stay fail, why? A lot of theories but no facts.
Whole families killed god im just so upset
Even at 1.5x speed, this one still goes too slowly. I'm not here for the drama. I'm here the science.
I prefer some science mixed with the human experience, I think too often science forgets that real people are going to be affected by the plans and decisions engineers etc are making during the planning and construction.
I watch another channel that you would like, if you aren't already a sub, it's almost too much science for me, when that creator goes deep into the science of the disaster!
🥺🤔
NEEDS MORE ADS... good grief, i got 13 minutes in when the third set of two ads came on, so I quit watching.
❤️🇵🇰
Low effort, bad editing. Not worth your time.
Don't call these disasters great.
Dont give orders, big shot
Normal Italian engineering.
never trust someone that doesn't speak English...
me king of hill not u
All English countries are the kids of ccp, all English people are the grandsons of ccp people 🌚
Almost all of democratic countries voted the anti ccp leaders except five eyes English countries. USA, AU, CA, NZ, UK, All of the leaders are the suckers of ccp 🌚
People just going about their day and had no idea that their lives would be over. Today is the day of salvation tomorrow is promised to no man. Matthew 24:35-39
[35]Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. No One Knows the Day or Hour
[36]“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
[37]But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
[38]For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
[39]""and did not know until the flood came and took them all away"" so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Eternity is a long time to be wrong. Only Jesus saves. Your church, your denomination, your pastor and being a good person cannot save you. There's only one way to heaven, there's one way, one truth and one life JESUS
This is not helpful for the dead, nor the living.
It was made in Italy, maybe a little part of its failure.
Russia did it
It was built by American 🇺🇸
From the same group of all female engineers.....
