Boats hitting bridges, planes falling apart, trains derailing, food and meat facilities burning down. The pattern recognition part of my brain is telling me "Nothing to see here, move along".

But we need you bridges, and you captains, to work this out. Be professional, both sides. (Glares at the bridges. Points menacingly at the captains.) No more hitting each other. I don't care if the bridge started it.
@quesadilla79 wrong.. this is rare but with the massive storms and rising waters with record floods it's still worth investigating who's the idiot that let this happen
@@quesadilla79 Genuine question about that. Is it actually happening more than usual? Or are they just showing us the normal stuff that "happens on the reg" more than usual?
Odd the reporters didn't even mention the bridge collapse by barge in Maryland, recently. Not even concern about, "are barge operators being tested for drugs/alcohol or up to date on licenses?" Has anyone been detained for questioning?
No, it is not normal and I hope more people wake up and see what is happening because we are under attack and guess what administration is behind it???????
Well, why would this be sabotage? I mean outside of a possible insurance scam to get a new bridge built for that island, there is nothing nefarious about this incident. No mass conspiracy to seek to destroy all our bridges. I mean, why would you target a bridge that only goes to a couple small factory buildings and a university campus that just finished up their semester and graduations? Likewise, why would some nefarious power seek to destroy the Francis Scott Key bridge at 3 in the morning instead of during rush hour 5 hours later? Simple facts like this make me highly doubtful of any grand conspiracy going on because none of the events and facts point to it.
Like everywhere else, people are letting the rules that are in place slide. Those doing so have not been educated on why you should follow rules even if you don't get their purpose. Instead, they were taught that the rules made by a corrupt patriarchy, are just to keep them down.
Honestly most the bridges cannot handle the kind of ships and barges that are now around. Cities have cut funding for re-enforcement of bridge structures, and this is the result. A lot of these bridges need to be replaced they well past their experiation date given what now exists.
The water is brownish mostly because of silt, whereas crystal clear water doesn’t have silt, just sand. It may not be entirely clean, but it’s not as nasty and polluted as people think just judging by the color.
@@tangyjoe4326 Yea there is plenty of sealife in those waters...crabs, dolphins, pelicans, seagulls, etc. which is why this news would be absolutely devastating to their ecology.

who touched you? lol boats still leaking, this dude is 10 years down the road in court steaming over a case that has nothing to do with him... keep drinking pal, its doing wonders!
Lol, you do know that these hapends on average 2500 times a year. I mean thousand beyond thousand of boats go under bridges e ery year. Strike are going to happend. Just like when cars hit something
The good news in this is no deaths and the rail line dead-ends at the end of the bridge; not used. I do hope they stop the leaking oil and get that cleaned up fast.
If you ever seen how low this bridge was you would be surprised it made it 60 years, we have bridges falling down all over the state. If they were under regular inspections and repair probably minor damage, leave Greg Abbott in charge for decades and old crap just gets ignored so it collapses.
Why do field reporters always say “as you can see” when there is no need to say that? Better to succinctly describe the area that we are supposed to be seeing.

Kinda weird that something similar just happened like 6 weeks ago in Baltimore. Are these boats all being driven by some faulty autopilot with the same bug or something?
They also won't actually run our economy. The batteries along would wipe out half the planets leftover reserves of lithium. Or something crazy like that. Unfortunately, it's just not enough. Let alone every 15-20 years it would need to ALL be ripped out, windmills, solar panels and batteries and COMPLETELY replaced. No one seems to talk about any of this.

But ALL major exports from the Midwest end up going down the Mississippi.
