This is so devastating. i wish those who lost their families at this time much prayers . ❤
Pray? What happened to Devine Intervention?
Wake up!
@@user-wn7ek7eo9hStudf happens. You only pray when horror happens?
@patriciaschuster1371 I am a rational person and critical thinker. Possessed with the ability to see things as they are.
Not a skeep in a cult.
Alot of folks worrying about the bridge itself, but I'm more concerned about the lives that was lost. The bridge can be rebuild but you can't replace the lives that was lost
Exactly!!! I felt like they cared more about the bridge than the poor workers😢. Even the President made no mention of them. My condolences to their families, and may they rest in peace!🙏🕊⚘️
Amazing they were able to stop traffic moments before. Lives were saved in those moments. I am so devastated for those workers and their families.
make sure that the insurance company pays the accidental death INSURANCE in FULL to the families that had lost loved ones while working on the bridge. You know how these companies are when something happens and its not listed in the terms or coverage!
Money money money 😅
The mayday at least stopped the traffic… sad the 6 road workers patching holes likely didn’t get the warning.
You'd think they would have noticed it but I guess not
My prayers are with the friends and families of those road workers. 🙏🕊🕯️
I really wish that could interview the people who crossed the bridge seconds before the crash...that should have a great impact on their lives...they were given a second chance to appreciate life more..and prayers for those who didn't make it....
Or to interview that FIRST CAR that was stopped from going over the bridge ... he gets out of his car . pissed off because those dam pothole guys have blocked the road again instead of doing one side at a time .... and then the bridges drops in front of him.
@TYRONE_SHOELACES that would be epic...people never trust their lord until things become clear...smh
They probably sick right now.This is so HORRIFIC.
Or those at the edge of crossing the bridge that never went over it
Einstein said nothing can fall or will fall until you FIRST take out the force from below doing the supporting of the the thing that can fall. The Equivalence Principle says gravity is not a force & NYC 9/11 was officially gravity..? ua-cam.com/video/R3LjJeeae68/v-deo.html
Prayers for the lost souls and their devastated loved ones left behind. Unimaginably devastating. ....🙏
Pray for Baltimore 🙏
Train Derailments, Wheels
and Doors falling off airplanes, ship crashing into bridges. such a scary time.
This same ship was sited for issues as recently as June 2023. Families should be suing everyone involved in making a decision to put it back out in the water.
I apologize. However I do believe this will be a recovery.
My Heart is with all families affected.
Here in Virginia we are next to you all in Maryland. We brothers and we support the great state of Maryland too.❤❤❤ 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 USA
My prayers go out to the family
I have a friend who lives in Baltimore and I said a prayer for him and the city and the family and friends of those affected by the tragedy. My heart aches for everyone.
It’s tragic that people are crying over the loss of the bridge and not the lives that were lost. I’ll never understand how people can think this way. That bridge can be built back and look exactly the same but those people that died can’t ever be brought back to life.
If you look carefully, you can see two lanes of roadway lying neatly intact across the bow of the boat, the top laced with bridge scaffolding. What a sight to behold...
My condolences to all I've been in tears. God bless all of you in Baltimore Maryland prayers for your loss and your compation. You guys are amazing. From the love of Lorain ohio
If you voted for biden this is your fault
What I don't understand is why these pilings the bridge rests on are not protected against this type of collision. So many modern bridges have sacrificial perimeters surrounding the pilings. One would have thought this would be considered mandatory in such a busy shipping port.
It reminds me of the condominium collapse in FL not that long ago. The first responders had a difficult time processing what they were seeing. The loss of life was great, the rescues, miracles.
I feel so bad for those workers that went to make money overnight :( and lost their lives . I also feel bad for everyone else that drowned :( and also the people on the ship that didn’t mean to crash into the bridge and now most likely feel the guilt heavy on their shoulders such a traumatic event
This is heartbreaking. I don't know if I will ever be afraid of going on bridges, I hope the Bay Bridge doesn't go through that same fate!
Lovely video summarizing this tragic event. My greatest condolences to the victims and their families, my greatest thanks to the dispatch and rescue crews who helped save many lives. God bless Maryland & God bless America 🙏
My prayers are with the entire city of Baltimore. A unexpected tragedy happen in the early hours, lost lives, saved lives, the may day callers, the fast respond of officials to stop this tragedy from being worst than it could have been, to a community that awakened to a devastated tragic accident and the ship crew under the bridge in that awful moment of realization. My prayers are with Baltimore🙏🙏🙏🙏
"The crew" (dramatic pause) "knew there was trouble" -
Tell the @#% story without all the drama.
WE KNOW it was horrible. Quit trying to overdramatize.
The media is always trying to make a buck lol
Terrible accident, my heart goes out to the victims, their families, first responders and the capt an crew. I don't think i could live with myself if i was the capt.
I see, so when the MayDay alarm went off, there were bridge guards to stop cars from crossing? Did I hear that right?
Rip 🪦 to those who lost their lives
I Am feeling heart broken poor Families!!
Im praying for all the victims it’s like a night mare!!
Im so sorry God help all this people, give them a confort ! Lest pray for all this victims 🙏🙏🙏
My ❤is heavy so sad pray for the families
Hope others survived & sad 😢condolences to family members of all who perished ❤
I've been over that bridge 100s of times
Tragic and horrific
Horrific tragedy. 😭🖤
Bless them folk❤ from us Brits 🙏 ✝️🇬🇧😔
All hearts go out to their families
Prayers for the families 🙏🙏
A bridge spanning that water .. supported at either end .. one end gets knocked down .. and the reporter can't understand why the bridge fell?
A steel bridge that is a fracture critical design that doesn’t have significant pile protection will catastrophically fail by removing just one of the piles holding up the steel bridge.
ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE for NOT having massive pile protection in place after similar circumstances of hitting and removing just one pile destroyed the Florida Sunshine Bridge.
I remember that well and studied the failure in my College engineering classes.
I been over that bridge so many dam times.
Can anyone ask why, if they had warning, didn't somebody get the construction workers off the bridge? Don't they have cell phones? Couldn't someone call them? Why didn't that happen? Why is nobody asking about that?
It’s sounds like there wasn’t much time and I’m guessing multiple calls would have needed to be made to find out what company was on the bridge, who was on shift etc. It was after 1:30am so who knows if the person who owned the company was immediately available etc.
It’s such an unfortunate, unexpected event. Prayers to the relatives of the crew members.
Who had warning?
@@stephanielake71 3:05 the toll facilities
No one was expecting this to happen, so no one was prepared in case there was an emergency 🦺
They were in the center span. No time to notify them unfortunately. I live close by
So sorry guys 😢
This is a very sad news.😢😢
THANK YOU
❤to those worker and their families
Praying
Incredible evidence how about the lack of competency to manage that route!?
Wowwww. Rip to the families.😭😭😭😭😔😔
WHO OWNS THE SHIPPING LINE ????
This is from Wikipedia "MV Dali is a Singapore-registered container ship owned by Grace Ocean Pte Ltd. As of March 2024, the vessel was chartered by Maersk and managed and operated by Synergy Marine Group"
If they had time to close the bridge WHY did they now get the road crew off also?!?!?!
THAT'S what I'm trying to figure out!
stopping new drivers from entering the bridge is different than rallying workers about midway through a 1.6 mile bridge to enter their vehicles and escape. they were barely in time to stop regular drivers
That's probably what happened. Also if the state troopers had driven through the bridge to warn them off, they'd be dead by now too.
You answer is in your question...if they had time ...... if they had time to remove the people from the lower floors of 9/11 ...why didn't they remove the people from the 55th floor ? ...... because .....they didn't have time.
@@TYRONE_SHOELACES 👏🏼
And why they don’t drop the anchor? That captain should be accountable
I did work for Maryland Ezpass all those bridges,I service making sure they hade their device and loaded with payments to be able to communicate daily. This is sad prayers for everyone.
Sadness 😢
I hope that they can rebuild and reinforce the bridge
Alhamdulillah 🤲 tank you singapura 👍👍💪💪💝💝
1:30am on the job filling pot holes... to repair the bridge. I heard 2 men found in their truck. I feel like there should have been a loud and clear warning. The power was out on the ship, okay, but no type of manual back up for warning???
💔💔💔
First my condolences to the families and friends of those who were killed. But we are all thinking it. Like, great! Another thing to raise prices. Such a blow to our economy. 😢
Oh sad praying for the victims total tragedy
The worst part of it is that this happened at night, very terrible sad news.
This is so sad how in America we have gotten to the point where we are experiencing so much preventable tragedy that keeps occurring, it’s almost like safety has taken a back seat. This incident should have never happened. RIP to the 6 individuals unaccounted for. I
Classic example of corruption in construction work
That Captain Will never sail again, what he must be going thru.
I feel Your pain.
Not the captain only, but the pilot will always live with this. Horrible. This bridge needed dolphins,but had none installed.
If there a maday called to stop traffic why didn't they get the construction workers off too??
RIGHT 2:33
Key started jotting down the Star Spangled Banner while he was detained on the HMS Tonnant which would have been anchored right there around where the bridge is/was during the Battle of Baltimore in September 1814.
Bridge breaks so easily,
Maybe corruption took place in building the bridge
Very unlikely this is a terror attack but still 1 lost life is a tragedy nowadays...
it's 100% NOT a terror attack. Why is this even being brought up as a possible scenario?
@@klauswigsmith You just never know cause what's going on in the Middle East now you always have to be prepared for anything
@@Fields11oh boy...
6:31 why did the ship turn right to the concrete bridge plyon support hitting it ? the ship should be in the middle of the 2 supports and is wide enough to be on center....there's plenty of room to the ships left and yet it clearly turned right to hit it ? when you drive a car on the highway you always maintain to be in the middle of your lane not extreme right nor left of the lane your on. the ship was clearly on its extreme right not between the bridge support why ? and why is the fed not the ships owner[ships insurance] paying to rebuild the bridge ?
Why should tax payers pay for it have the shipping company pay
Because it's a company from Singapore and they will have issues most likely.
But I'm sure their insurance and company will pay. All of it? Nah. Alot? Maybe
Lastly, to the victims?😢 They gave 2 sh*ts. They gave more respect and worries to the bridge itself than the workers. May they rest in peace and my condolences to their families.🙏🕊⚘️💕
Okay less mourning the stupid ugly bridge(with no guards) because you drove over it. More mourning the PEOPLE.
whats with the smile on the mayors face.
My thoughts exactly when I saw his initial press release
Why did the ship NOT play a loud horn to warn those on the bridge?
The video showed two vehicles two minutes barely missed the collision.
No power omg
It lost power and went dark. Just before the collision the light came back.
They stopped traffic but didn't tell the construction workers to get off?
😮😮😅😅😊😊😊I hope everyone be safe today
Time to stop traffic but no time warn workers
Traffic you just lower the toll arms probably. Workers would need a phone on them & hope they hear ir. And even then idk if they’d be able to make it off in time
Did the construction workers not have a radio? In the same way the mayday call closed the tolls a radio call to those men to get off ASAP would have possibly saved them.
RIP 1969-2024 MDOT Bay Bridge is gone 😭
This is not the Bay Bridge, which is over the Chesapeake Bay. This is the Key Bridge over the Patapsco River which is the basis of the Baltimore harbor. Francis Scott Key bridge, named after the author of the Star Spangled Banner, which was written in the Baltimore harbor at very nearby Fort McHenry during the war of 1812.
Watch other vids, the ship lost power then regained power and turned into the bridge.
What about putting ferry boats in place to eas traffic.i ask because hazmats are going to clog the 695 west belt way.and 35000 additional vehicles
America we are not on top of our game we are loosing focus our minds are on the wrong things. Stop fighting and run the country we need all our energy to protect our people. Come on government govern please
The ships insurance carrier needs to pay the full rebuild cost of the bridge, Not the fed government
and by the federal government, you mean us.
The PILOT was a local.He is there, by law, to AVOID these kinds of things.
Where was he.
And how could he let this happen?
Look also at the PILOT!
In another video i hear the commentator saying, these images were taken by a helicopter. What was he doing there at the exact time?
It was a sudden mechanical failure, which I would imagine is beyond the pilot's control
@@shinyobsessed1271 and after one second the engines are coming on again, seeing all that black smoke belching out?
And what would a GOOD Pilot give orders? -drop anchors- when there is a -sudden- power failure. It will not stop the ship immideately.But slow it down.And when the anchors are downed on the right side of the ship,it will turn into the anchors.meaning in this case,away from the pylons. BUT it needs a Pilot who can act quickly and crew that can execute these orders even faster.Though what surprises me even more, to tugs for a ship of this seize? at least until it has left the inlet and reached the safety of the open sea?
@@benediktmorak4409 I think that for a bridge with no support pylon barriers, navigation via tugboat might be a really good policy
@@shinyobsessed1271 One thing is though for sure.
Far to much is being made of the fact that the Captain of the ship is from the Ukraine.
It is the helmsman who is steering the ship.
And i dont think he will take orders from the captain,who will override the orders from the Pilot. Telling him -ram the bridge -.
Suppose have harbor navigator officer when ships coming in and out?
Nothing can be done when a megaton ship loses power and plows through with no steering.
I believe this tragedy was purposefully done ! GOD soon will hold those accountable !! 🙏❤️🙏
🙏🙏🙏
😢 if you if we work together we can do it
Ukrainian captain of ship is a bit fishy
Which country please
USA,Md
Somebody is fired. How the hack does one crash into a huge bridge???
The ship lost power...to steer.
Ukrainian Captain Sergei Bridgeram tried his best, dont blame him
Harbor tool should have had tugboats on standby for these exact reasons and they failed to do so
Could they have got there in time?
Really? two large heavy duty tug boats on each side of every ship every time a ship goes anywhere it might cause damage? Once that ship lost power no tug boat would have had time to do anything.
So everytime you see the bridge fall you also watching 6 ppl die😱
😢😢😢
Oh Lord, my ship is so large, and the bridge piers so small...,
Unprecedented America.
The day it collapsed? You mean today???
RIP
Why 6 people?
They were a road crew fixing potholes on the bridge. It's typical to work during the night when traffic is lighter.
Bad day at the office.
