    Interesting. The close ups give a more accurate perspective on the real thickness of these steel parts. All we saw up to now was long shots that that gave the impression of an oversized erector set.

    Wow....very interesting! Unbelievable that just those relatively small chunks of the bridge structure each weigh as much as a herd of elephants! The Key Bridge looked rather delicate from a distance (and even driving across it didn't give a full picture) but clearly it was not.
    And yes it is sad to see what's left of it being dismantled....

    • @workingunderwater
      @workingunderwater  Місяць тому

      Yes, the Key Bridge was structurally critical, meaning it heavily relied on the integrity of certain key components. When it was built, cargo ships in Baltimore were 1/3 the size of the Dali.
      Thanks for tuning in!

    those workers have a real Big set of ".....". Working from an 85 ft reach manlift which is sitting on a barge, or a basket hanging from a crane. You have to keep your hand steady enough to keep the Torch in the right position, knowing that the material that you re cutting is going to fall away. 1 or 1.5 inch thick steel.

    • @workingunderwater
      @workingunderwater  Місяць тому +2

      When you're up there above the wreckage fully extended in the manlift and that barge starts rocking in high winds, you better have some kind of faith in God because you're in His hands at that point. After the first minute or two, you just shake it off and focus on the task at hand.
      Good observation, Thanks!

    I will never be able to get my head round WHY the traffic on the bridge when it collapsed was not a priority. People could have been saved from their vehicles - the world watched and watched ,replayed again and again the bridge collapse WHILE PEOPLE SLOWLY DIED in the water.

      I've been on the ground for many urban disasters, and it's widely understood that the freedom of the press allows for documenting events like the bridge collapse. This bridge demolition has been extensively filmed, this video is no different than the thousands of others online.

    • @Climbtodharma
      @Climbtodharma Місяць тому
