50,000 jobs in Port of Baltimore?! Amazing port.
When this story first broke it was 15,000. In a week it'll be 500,000.
If I can say one thing our main distribution comes from Baltimore. I’m sure our products come from there.
for how important ports are, they should've had barriers protecting the pillars. every bridge near ports in america should have some kind of barrier to avoid situations like this
I was thinking the same thing. That should have been first and foremost.
That makes way too much sense. Remember, you're dealing with the intelligence level of government workers making these decisions.
No bridge in the world is designed to take that kind of hit.
Maryland considered that but rejected the idea because it was too expensive. Penny wise and pound foolish.
@@rack9458 Only smart comment, the other two guys have no clue about physics.
I thought it was Elizabeth holmes speaking for a second.😂
Shows you how vulnerable the ports are
Praying they can find the other workers that lost their life's so the families can have closure
Sonar has found them, but the debris is preventing them from pulling them out.
People pass everyday do to horrible circumstances, how many Afghanistan translaters were abandoned and ended by the Taliban. To this day they remain in hiding. Where's the stories on them. The only reason is because they were migrants. That's why we, that's the only reason. How many Bridges have collapsed in America in the last 10 years do to crumbling infrastructure.
@@BeezelBub8IsTbis had nothing to do with crumbling infrastructure
Sorry my comment has been censored, poooof just like that, what ever do I say so wrong.
@@rack9458 wish I could say what I believe, at least you got to bear witness to it.
I praying for all thoes people who are out of a job, and for all those who are involved in the clearance of the broken bridge i pray that no lives will be lost whilst rebuilding and constructing this beautiful bridge ❤
Pray for Joe Biden too!
Would have been nice if God hadn't decided the bridge needed to collapse. Maybe next time pray the disaster doesn't happen.
@@horaceball5418trump would have it cleaned up and rebuilt by now
@@CameronBrooks-ng2cfAnd have Mexico pay for it.
The shipping company needs to pay for all loss, wages, the bridge and all damages to the economy
"trapped under an estimated 2-3000 tons of metal." That calculation appears to place the weight of the entire bridge on the ship. The truth is, they should have already moved that small bridge section from the bow and start pulling on the ship but that isnt happening.
theres hazardous materials in the bow of the ship and the ship bow is touching bottom , I think worst case scenario they'll have to unload the ship before removing that final section of bridge resting at the bow
That bridge weighs 10's of thousands of tons. Your figures are way off. I'm sure your thoughts on the timeline are equally as accurate.
authorities have to do a detailed investigation. unfortunately that meant leaving things still for a time.
Pretty sure that bridge ways a lot more than 2-3000 tons that would be about 1000 cars worth of weight which considering this bridge could support close to that if not more it's weight has to be magnitudes greater.
All of these workers at the port is going to be off for Easter ,,🐣 they gonna be able to spend more time with the family and community. Please make sure you support the local restaurants in the area .
Spending time with family is pretty meaningless when you can't pay rent. Not to mention Baltimore isn't home for many of the workers.
You can look at the Sunshine bridge disaster in Florida to get some idea of what it takes. The new bridge is the modern design of suspension with usually a single tower and a wide channel under the bridge. This design is used all over the world and looks good also. I guess it all depends on the approaches and putting it all together to fit the present roadway approaches. The new Sunshine bridge also has well protected piers.
Yeah the same thing happened to it back in the 1980's, a barge/cargo ship hit one of the piers due to bad weather/mechanical failure and collapsed part of it. Took seven years to rebuild, while doing it they built artificial islands around the supports and installed more concrete pillars to hopefully stop anything that might hit again.
20 years to rebuild a bridge 🌉 wow 😮 that’s just ridiculous
Nope! 3-5 years
How was the Government willing to step in so quickly and not blame the shipping company? Fishy AF
Hmmm… it’s a mystery.
Well, the problem has to be fixed ASAP. Litigation and investigations can be done at the same time. Did you watch the video?
The government stepped in to open the port up. That's the priority. Millions of dollars are lost every hour that passage is blocked. Whatever they covered now will likely be reimbursed as part of the massive fines/settlement proceeds that will be determined years from now.
Because there hasn't been an investigation yet. Use your head
They didn't say they weren't blaming the company but they have been in contact with the company
The port authority controls the movement of ships in and out of the harbor. I recall that a tug boat was helping the Dali until it didn't.
Hey Maryland!!…(and everywhere else in America), two words…
They’re easy ones: INFRASTRUCTURE NOW.
Thank you, Joe Biden
Too bad we've all but scrapped our heavy industry. Now the steel has to come from China.
Instead of the taxpayers paying to rebuild the bridge, does the tanker ship have insurance?
Yes, to cover the damage to the ship. I think the reason a State licensed harbor pilot takes over the ship while entering and exiting port is for liability reasons.
We did just pass a $2T infrastructure bill, one would assume Maryland could take the funds allotted to the state for this. I don't understand why Congress should have to pass a separate bill. Why are federal funds going to what should be a State issue?
You know how long that would take?
Well, I would agree, and I'm pretty sure they will be on the hook to some extent. But, this is the type of thing our taxes are for, not all the frivolous stuff that goes on. That port being shut down affects you, whether you know it or not.
They will get a bill for the damages. A claim will get filed. But for now, Biden
put up the cash...
That could take years to resolve on who's at fault. Both parties are gonna fight till the end. The shipping company and insurance are most likely going to argue for a lower payment or say it was outside their control. And we hope that company has money watch them declare bankruptcy
The first few seconds show the first removal pictures. But then you get off topic and talk about other items, reruns, for the bulk of the video.
Without the port, Baltimore will be crap. Oh, wait.
Know see we're you wrong the port effect just more than Baltimore. Do your history on ports. Worry about we're you from. Lease we will be getting a new much better bridge. Baltimore is strong.
Lol
Too.late lol
@@teemoney94wow, ever learn English?
Yes Indeed! Get the money back working again! Big buck reconstruction! 🎉
My bet is that the bridge will be rebuilt with the same narrow, two lanes in both directions with no safety shoulders as if this is 1975 traffic. All new bridges and highways should include at least three travel lanes and safety shoulders at minimum in 2024.
Fun fact: Pete Buttigieg is Secretary of Transportation.
So something might actually get done?
"Embedded" with the US Coast Guard? Now that is "drama queen" talk...
That’s to stop supplies for us for a while to starve us out
See my comment in the comment section. This is definitely an agenda! Matter of fact.. I'll copy and paste it in the following comment.
In Numerology, Maryland equates to 128, 88, 34 and 47. Those numbers, especially 128, are very important and ill explain why.. this will be long, but definitely worth the read! On December 8th, or.. 12/8, the Netflix movie, 'Leave The World Behind' came out. In the movie, a ship loses control and heads toward the beach. The ship's name is White Lion. In numerology, White Lion equates to 128. Also.. 2hrs and 8mins into the movie, or.. the 128th minute.. you will see a collapsed bridge. Now this.. the bridge collapsed at 1:28am. That's the 88th minute of the day. It stood for 47yrs. August 1st is Francis Scott Key's birthday. From August 1st to March 26th, is 34wks exactly. And from March 26th to August 1st, is 128 days. Salvadore Dali has a painting about a broken bridge. The name of that painting equates to 128 and what is the ship's name that hit the Key Bridge? 'The Dali'. Also.. January 28th, or.. 1/28, the Ravens lost to KC in the AFC Championship Game. From that day to the bridge collapse, is a span of 58 days. In numerology, Baltimore equals 58. It's time to wake up folks! There's an agenda taking place against the American people. No way can all of those things just be, "coincidence".
If only it were that easy.
So where is the cut ?
Another horrific chaotic moment!……
When do we find out why the ships propulsion system suffered such catastrophic failure? Seems to me it shouldn't be that difficult to figure that out.
Doesn't the state already have an unemployment system??? Why new??? Why special??? Same as every other citizen on Maryland.
It seems like the easiest place to clear a shipping channel is where the ship is. The bridge is literally on the ship, and not underwater. The port needs to desperately need to be opened. It won’t be a wide channel, but seems to be the best option.
Edit. Your comments are a cesspool. Goodluck with life y’all.
Shorty was gettin busy 1:08 for a second I ain’t kno what she was doin 😂
Guess who's going to pay for the cleanup? Yup, taxpayers. Not the container ship owner.
Correct. Because a public employee, port authority, was driving the ship at the the of the accident. It's not any fault of the ships owner or captain
@@rack9458Wrong!!! The ship crapped out!!! Nothing to do with the pilot!!!
@@johnp139 It is the Pilot responsibility to see the ship through, in any case the bridge should have had fenders.
The former commander of the US army in Europe, General Ben Hodges, called for isolating Crimea by destroying the bridge over the Kerch Strait, and using long-range weapons to make the peninsula "unsuitable for Russia." In the meantime, the general will train on U.S. bridges.
The workers and business owners need to get together and file suit against the shipping company and its insurers.
Nonsense, why has the city of Baltimore not upgraded the bridge knowing that container ships have grown in size by ten folds since the bridge was built and a similar accident happened in Florida in 1980.
@@iorr98please educate yourself on the incident before you embarrass yourself with ignorant comments like this one that slander my community. The bridge height had nothing to do with the collision of the cargo ship and many port cities have non retractable bridges of the same size within them. Stop putting fuel into an already tragic accident
@@fgerv workers comp is for on the job injuries.
@@dog-qf2lp Bridge height? I was talking about installing fenders around the supporting pylons. It is mandatory for all bridges build since the 90's for a good reason.
@@fgerv there are 50000 people that jobs depend on the port. Those are the people I'm talking about. The ones with injuries or worse can file a claim with workers comp but they will charge the amount back to any settlement that the victims receive.
That union worker getting paid to stay at home acting like he wants to get back to work is pure comedy
No it's not these guys want to go back to work
The work group that owns Dolly should pay for everything
That ship is almost the size of an aircraft carrier. That is crazy… it should be all hands on deck…
I bet the new bridge is renamed, symbolic at the very least.....
I’m waiting for the GQP Taliban to refuse to fix the bridge because they can use it as a leverage point for some other unpopular cultural issue.
Back up!
taxpayer monies usage....
wow you think
You media should all get together and talk about it, 🤣
Why rebuild a bridge? They should build a tunnel instead.
Where are the workers cutting up the bridge?
They're on the bridge
Let me guess, this is going to cause the price of products to go up.
I watched C B S first time in years. The reporting thing is going to gain a audience.
Surely the ship was insured before sailing.
This is an insurance claim, just like any other accident.
Just another reason for tax payers to foot the bill, while the one's in charge line their pockets.
Any and all of the southern ports can handle the load. Politics prevents critical thought.
Insurance should pay to rebuild..not tax payers dollars
Your taxes aren't going up one penny. You'll still be able to by Trump swag.
Actually the port authority is responsible as they were driving the ship at the time of the accident. It will be on the publics insurance not the ships.
@@reggiedunlop5167 I can't afford trump swag due to Bidenimics
@@rack9458Except that the ship broke down.
Port of Baltimore is far from the largest in nation, not even close, scare mongering much?
why the ship owner is not paying for anything?
Because the ship owner didn't cause the crash. The port authority had control of the ship when it Crashed
@@rack9458 oh okay thanks for the clarification. I didn’t know that
@@tfisher5685 👍
@@rack9458Only the ship broke down!!!
9th largest port in America 😮
Well it’s in the interest of corporations to also assist if their businesses are dependent on the clean up and rebuilding
Who owns the port of the United States? Ships are being rerouted to other ports at these ports, owned by America or by China.
They are still working. They still have trucks coming in.
All astern!
Daunting? No. Dangerous, Yes.
I would try to make a tunnel. All the bridges between sea and the harbors of Rotterdam and Amsterdam are replaced by tunnels, because we had ships hitting the bridges too.
Too expensive
Hazmat trucks can't go through tunnels here.

Very sad, small crane maybe two torches for the most powerful nation on earth!!!!!! Disgrace !!!!
Dude, pay attention.
That crane can lift 2,000,000 lbs.
A curse is placed on your ancestors
@@master-oppressor look at world largest cranes on water, get your facts straight, that crane can't come close dead weight on a barge
@@calliepoma2899 Kid, nothing I've said is wrong. Wtf is wrong with you?!?
Then calculate massive weight of Iron
I'm a Iron worker, WOKE
Nothing like when big money is involved.
Has Bootygood deemed it a racist bridge?
Absolutely racist 😅
People are going to get hurt, cleaning up that mess. Would you like to be holding the torch?
The company the woke company that owns that barge should be paying for it and if they don't they should be sued for it and Marilyn you have plenty of funds to take care of this do not put this on the American people we have enough to take care of we understand the Dilemma the great dilemma but we also understand that our country is under water as well as that bridge met everyone rest in peace and this should have never happened but it is not of the Congress or the American people to have no choice into repairing and paying for something that we did not do
Haven't heard much about the investigation, or cause of this. Already removing the evidence?
Go back you conspiracy vids.

Thank you Secretary Pete for your dedication to help rebuilding our critical infrastructure. Please keep your commitment to our POC community to keep racism off of our roadways by hiring only minority contractors to rebuild the bridge.
Why?
Under river tunnel will be better.
How about a bridge
supported by balloons ?
Chinese Spy Balloons
It’s a clownshow
The guys who weld on oil rig columns make $45 to 60 per hour so I imagine these salvage workers make significantly less.
1080i with scanlines? A major broadcasting network has worse video quality than most youtubers 😂
Maybe they just uploaded it to UA-cam in 1080 by accident I know they have better cameras
@@angeloc1340 UA-cam says it's 1080p but those scanline artifacts are just awful. In an age where you can film 4k60 on a freaking iPhone it's just kind of ridiculous.
Where’s the captain?
In a harbor, the local pilot is in charge. With a total power failure, the pilot had seconds to react. The Pilot shut down the bridge and saved a lot of lives.
Using tragedy to rase prices
Why not use more thermite
perhaps they used it all on 911
Interesting on how fast this is happening. Months after the Fire in Maui and nothing is happening.
They are NOT working Easter Sunday. Work will RESUME on Monday April Fools day!!!!!!!!!!
I pray.😢
Why? Maybe you should have prayed for those people to NOT DIE. But you can continue with your delusions.
…build back better Joe…
Yep hurry up before ins can investigate.
If this would have happened in Ukraine, US navy would have been there rescuing people and cutting away debris on the same day…
Just remove/clean the center section
Just tow away the center part to the side way
Crane raises the fell part
The tow boats tow the part
No crane in the world can lift that much bridge, they are gonna have to cut it apart to do so and to do that you are gonna need divers in the water working in almost zero visibility, dealing with river currents and the cold temps, its gonna take awhile.
Surprised the bros didn’t already strip it.
Can't swim!
Ура! скоро мост не будет!
With Pete in charge, I'm sure it'll be handled appropriately. 😮

Did they ever clean up East Palestine? No news channel covers that catastrophic event
This was so rigged, even a cave man can see the truth here.
And how come East Palestine not given this treatment ?
Cause it is in the middle of nowhere. That is the honest truth
Use air bags to lift and take apart when out of water for ships to go through.
Eventually divers will have to cut sections for the crane to lift. Extremely dangerous work.
You are kidding right?
@@rack9458 air bags are used to lift objects off sea floor every day

TEARS OF SORROW = 2024 !!
Tears are the raindrops of the soul
And there's one for all who die.
They are the silent words of grief
As they fall free from the eye.
The shortest verse in the Bible
Is the one where Jesus wept
So, if you hold back tears, shed them
When your pain is too harsh to accept.
Tears are lovelier than a smile
When they come from those you love
As they seek relief from sadness
When you're summoned from above.
Tears are a love-mates humble gift
When it's time to say goodbye
Though the eyes are wet and swollen
With time and patience they dry.

I wish they would cover this better...
CBS sucks.
Thanks Iron workers, riggers, I have more faith in you than any pencil pusher engineers. You get it done. THX.
bro what??? they're both important lmao. iron workers can't build a bridge on intuition lmfao
Yes we must hurry, too much evidence to uncover.
What kind of evidence do you expect? The ship hit the bridge and it collapsed. Pretty simple.
Imagine being ALIVE and above water and only mentioning getting back to work 😏🙄

9th largest port? In other words not that busy.
No, that's not what it means, Forrest.
@@master-oppressor dude the 3rd largest yeah I could see a problem but the ninth ehhh…
There's no damage to the port, they just have to clear the debris from the channel. It shouldn't take very long.
..a month, 4 tops. That's what unemployment insurance is for.
Ahhhahaha love your name. I’m gonna change mine to master-bator.
@gordenstokes5044 See? You're annoying.
When the Panama Canal was widened in 2015, the Port of Baltimore widened they harbor as well to be able to accommodate the really huge Asian Cargo ships.
They average over 2000 ships per yr.
So stop thinking 9th means anything except our other 293 ports aren't as busy.
Thank you, Joe Biden for the $60 billion fund and for the infrastructure bill (exactly how many Maryland Republicans voted against that bill in this state?) that will all help to rebuild this important economy
