our first responders did an awesome job, stopping traffic, and then going into rescue mode! they did everything they possibly could
RIP to all, what a horrific death that must’ve been. Can’t imagine seeing the bridge collapse in real time either, how horrifying
Heartbreaking 💔 wish they stop talking about losing the ‘bridge’ for a while and focus on the worker’s lives we lost 😢
They can’t tell you what they don’t know. The wreckage is making it unsafe to even look as well as they want too. Stop trying to attribute bad motives to these people. They are doing their best.
They are not dismissing the missing 6 workers but this is a huge deal. There are container ships in the Harbor that can not leave, there are 100’s of container ships in the Bay heading towards Baltimore. The bridge is damaged immensely , it will be years before they will be finished repairing.
You must watch too much fantasy and not enough reality.
Yes that was my issues on the news focus. Even the gov all talk about the heroic acts of the police, and how iconic the bridge was, but almost no mention of the lives lost. So sad.
@@PaperMario64 GO AWAY AND GET LOST
So sad for the crew and their families but also for the ships crew as well, they seem like they were trying their best with no hope at all. Even dropping an anchor that had no hope of working but they tried it anyway. As for people saying why didn't they do this or why didn't the police let the crew on the bridge know. It was 1:30am in the morning with a massive ship with no lights on with a notice of 90 seconds. They are men and women not supermen/superwomen. Common sense wouldn't go a miss.
RIP to the lost. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Finally a comment with logic , facts and common sense!!
Why weren’t the bridge workers warned to get off the bridge or was there just not enough time? It’s just so heartbreaking. They were here working hard for their families and now presumed dead. 😢
There wasn’t enough time. They were warned but if you look at the footage, the lights of their vehicles were in the middle of the bridge. They didn’t have enough time.
According to the surveillance video there where 4 minutes between the first loss of power of the ship and the collapse of the bridge.
I'm marvelling at the transportation officials who were able to stop all traffic over the bridge in time. You can see in the video that the last moving car left the bridge 34 seconds before the ship hit the pylon.
@@ObiWahn6890 secs, not 4 mins. I’m wondering why did have two-way radios to be alerted to to drive to safety
I guess it's possible.The police didn't realize that they were working on the bridge.But i've got the same thing also
You can warn them all you want. It is in human's nature to just stand there and watch, not to run away. You see this everywhere. People don't run away when a tsunami is approaching, no matter how much the police are shouting in megaphones. They run towards the water to see what is happening, maybe take a few selfies.
I want ppl to stop complaining about the bridge I get it it’s a staple to the city but what about the families of the workers and their children 😢
The last thing in the world that happens when you lose your electric plant is silence. On the bridge of a ship there can be dozens and dozens of alarms that go off when you lose power because everything has a small battery back up. Believe me I know this from when my generator blew up on a container ship.
Rest in peace to everyone who was caught in this catastrophe
The first two people were reported rescued right after the collapse, one in critical condition and the other refused a trip to the hospital or any treatment because that person was fine, just shaken, which is remarkable!
Yes, this situation is bad… but it could’ve been so much worse.
“… it’s just a bridge … goes ‘round the corner …” - Robert
They may be heroes in stopping the traffic in both directions but they surely didn't warn the crew working on the bridge. RIP
How ?
They're not heroes. If that's the case the person who called for "mayday mayday" is a hero. The police dispatch is a hero. The officer(s) on duty was GIVEN an order to stop traffic at the bridge. It's not like that the officer took the opportunity upon himself without receiving any orders to stop traffic because he seen what was about to happen. I'm tired of these people throwing these exalting terms around to make them look good and to receive sympathy/virtual pats on their backs.
What about them just saying " the officers were luckily able to respond in time to stop traffic from heading onto the bridge" The word 'Hero' lost its' original meaning after the 'alternative' people hijacked it years ago, now everyone's a bloody hero.@@disguiseddv8ant486
@@disguiseddv8ant486you must have fun at a party
@@disguiseddv8ant486- I absolutely agree that they should not be called “heroes“. That’s like saying someone who runs into a burning building to save children is the same as someone who runs to telephone to call 911. A good Samaritan or a good worker or a fast reactor is a compliment and itself, not everything has to be called a hero. It’s just a pet peeve of mine.
Forget the bridge were is the people 😢
Fr, all this talk about the bridge... the people need to be found
Bottom of the sea.
Yep if they were in trucks its gonna be hard to recover them if not they will float to the top within a day or two @@hydrobuu
What do you want them to say? They haven’t found them. It’s unsafe for the rescue workers to even get to them because of the debris.
@@jasonlinton9902
They are missing 6 construction workers. No personal vehicles went in the water.
I’m confused. Why are they just counting the workers? What about those five cars that came down too??
It was just the workers and their vehicles. No regular traffic was on the bridge.
Where did you get that number from? There was no moving traffic on the bridge when it collapsed. Any cars you might have seen belonged to the construction workers.
Thumbs up for both of our News Anchors!!!
amazing content it was really good
That bridge looked like an erector set, not to sturdy and not enough metal, plus what no barriers?... why. Where were the tugs????
Very skeptical
Still never heard the actual MAYDAY call!
now we want to be together as a team of loving people 🙄
Pray for the families, give then closure,,,
😢😢
It lost power way before! Not moments before impact. Why is nobody reporting on this. It’s even on video
4 minutes isn't way before.
Now if someone in Maryland hits the jackpot for the powerball or Mega million I know something 🤔
What if the ship sinks? That would be even worse.
It's gonna be a long time till they build a new bridge.Maybe they can get a ferry ship that can be used to transport cars back and forth.. On the temp
Tell me WHY they managed to stop traffic from both sides of bridge,
WAS NOT NOT ONE CAR ON BRIDGE...
BUT CLDNT GET 6 WORKERS OFF THE BRIDGE IN TIME?
PLEASE EXPLAIN?
Why is that so hard to understand?
The bridge is over a mile long and there was only 90 seconds between the mayday call and impact. There are tolls, and truck weighing stations at either end, so usually at least one cop car is there. Stopping more traffic coming onto the bridge is not difficult. The traffic already on the bridge just kept moving, unaware of the problem.
The construction crew probably didn't know there was a problem until they felt the impact of the ship shaking the bridge.
If they had more time, cops probably would have been on the radio to that crew and told them to leave, but there just wasn't time.
@@jimbobeire whats not hard to understand? Again, EXPLAIN why these poorr workers cldnt get off this bridge in time
It all happened too quickly
@@DawnSchmeltz oh, was that it, ok
@@jimbobeire ,& im not sayim thank god for the fact they stopped all these cars in both directions SO QUICK, but again why werent the workers part of this pain staking drama? Sad is my point
Ship should have never left the dock with electrical promblems they thought they had it fix
2 or 3 yrs to clean up mess 2 or 3 yrs to build another bridge
2 or 3 months to clean mess up
Truss bridges are not as good they said they build them better with concrete pillars that cracks in time what is safe to build a bridge long term they do inspect them
Dali mechanics and crew done screwed up and no support for bridge it wouldn't have done anygood with a vessel that big 😅drag the anchors didnt work
Too many people on public payroll , why so many people at the news conference doing NOTHING ! Just put life size cardboard cutouts of people behind the speaker !
Another news station said 7 minutes
Surely longer than 90 seconds lol. The bridge is a mile long and no traffic was on it when it collapsed. Simple logic and a little math says differently
I looked at the timestamps on the surveillance video. The lights on the ship went out the first time at 1:24:32 EDT. The bridge started to collapse at 1:28:48 EDT.
I don't know how long it took the crew to send the first mayday. The first power outtage lasted until 1:25:33 EDT. The last car entered the bridge at 1:27:26 EDT and left it at 1:28:10 EDT.
Why are they talking about bridge and not the people
Right after the power of the ship goes off, the anchor should have been let gone. It means that the anchor should be let gone mechanically even with out power. If the anchor was secured before clearing the bridge, then thats a problem if something goes wrong.
It can take 10 years to repair bridge
Not sure if that's an extreme of not. Bit I personally think it's a locked definite bet that there will be no bridge opened there for a minimum of 5 years,
🙏🏽
Security cameras all over including approaches to the bridge, direct contracts for people who were making repairs and this should have only taken minutes to find out by the authorities who are on the ball. clearly something is missing just in gathering basic information. everyone on the work crew should have been accounted for and every car that went up the bridge from both sides and knowing the time stamp the video should have been reviewed within an hour of the police and rescue workers arriving. the working time for someone in the water is less than 30 min. so after 2 hours it should have become a recovery and not a rescue. Again, this shows incompetency on the part of both authorities and rescue workers. This should be on a check list for all disasters. Government is the problem here. Am I wrong?
90 seconds? How’d the police direct traffic off of the bridge that fast? Had to be longer
There wasn’t much traffic on the bridge because it was 1:30 AM. MTA Police were likely on either side of the bridge due to the lane closures for the pothole crew
Because it happened so early in the morning..had it happened a couple hours later they would've had a HARD time stopping that traffic..
They didn't _direct_ traffic _off_ the bridge. They stopped _approaching_ traffic from going _onto_ the bridge. It's a long bridge with toll plazas, truck weighing stations etc, and cops at each end, so they don't need much time to just close the lanes onto the bridge. Traffic already crossing the bridge just got across with about 30 seconds to spare before collapse.
@@jimbobeire yes you are correct. My wording was bad. It’s impressive response time I think👍🏼. It was a very short window of time that’s for sure
Aren't there cars in the water and families looking for them
There are 4 workers they are searching for. The families are aware
Temp fix pot holes not a permant fix cheap
Turned out to be bad feul.
Nothing turned out to be anything yet. Internet rumours are not the same as facts. NTSB hasn't even had time to check out every claim yet.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
When will the captain be arrested? If it was normal he been arrested but issue is he Ukraine
Under water drones, able to search for still warm, car shaped, metallic objects, could have peered into the vehicle and magnetically tagged a buoyed line to guide divers.
The cars would have trapped air pockets, and the cold may have slowed the metabolism of surviving passengers in the cars; extending the time for the search.
The rescue boats have sonar. Those guys were dead within minutes of going under
Prayers for all involved. 🙏 Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all. Jesus Christ Saves Souls 1st Corinthians Ch15 Verses1-4
An unfortunate catastrophe? Yeah right.
I believe my own eyes and what I see is a Mayday that made no bit of difference at all!
Today is the day of salivation. Turn on to the Lord who is your creator. You will never regret giving your life to him. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
They said they saves lives ... I get the vibes of a Pastors at funerals says all the good things one can think of to give the family comfort. We all know most of us going to hell just like no one saved any lives. LOL
You Are Correct!.
Ignorant mockery is not a good look. They did save lives by preventing others driving onto the bridge, and also pulled two hard working men out of the water. Have you ever done anything like that, or do you just scoff at people on the internet?
All the women that’s rally for equal right and equal pay and says THEY DONT NEED MEN shouldn’t be working in construction on a bridge at 2 am in the morning
