The bridge can be rebuilt, the lives can not. Prayers to the families.
Added to the fact that bridge was a toll bridge.
Thank you captain obvious.
what good with your prayers actually do? Make YOU feel better?
@@malahammer If I were victim of a tragedy, I would appreciate prayers. Just the knowledge people are concerned.
All of the missing are Latino, and likely Catholic. Hopefully they feel the same.
@@malahammerwhy don’t you take your negativity and run
So sorry for the families who lost their loved ones.
Someone who worked with the construction crew said (indirectly -- not on camera, this was via a local reporter who had spoken with him) that three of the missing were from one family. All of the missing are Latino, from several different nations, who were sending money back to their families in South or Central America. He said he wanted it known that his friends were all good men. Very sad.
The sheer disbelief in the fire fighter’s voice when he reported that the bridge was gone is stunning. I couldn’t imagine what that must have felt like, seeing a bridge there one second, and then completely gone the next.
Baltimore bridge is falling down falling down oh my god...😮
Imagine what we felt in NYC when the towers went down. For 2 years, everyone was a mess. Nobody dressed up, nobody cared to look nice. You would hear random wailing on the buses, subway, and in the street. It was not until we had a blackout 2 years later that we partied like in it was 1999.
@@justanotherguy469 As awful as we all feel about this, no one really knows what it's like unless you were there when it happened. My heart is breaking for these people, but I can't even imagine what it was like. And I am crying as I wrote this. I have seen suffering in my life...I am a retired nurse, so I get it. My heart goes out to these people and their families, and I am sending prayers for comfort.
@@marymascitelli7913I was down by the World Trade Center on September 11, and I watched as dozens of bodies rained down from the sky. For weeks, if I saw a piece of anything fall to the floor, I would break out in tears. Almost 3,000 people died, and for 3 months, I had to endure the smell of their burning bodies, and became sick from it. I would hear random wailing everywhere I went to. I know what it is like…and then some.

Sending prayers to Baltimore, especially the families of those lost. I say this with tears in my eyes.
Thank you...
And GOD Bless you for caring 💜
Can you imagine being the first car in line that got stopped before getting on the bridge…or the last one to make it across safely? Crazy…
Yes and the last two vehicles that went across, they said 10 seconds before it fell...

God Bless the deceased, their Families of the ones who are still missing.
Bless God, Amen
God have noting to do with that bridge it is man made tell your leader to take care of your people and country and stop think dem can rule de world like dem a ground god
@@oralwilliams830What?? Maybe Reread Your Comment!! Doesn't MAKE Sense!!🤔
what about the migrants and folks due reparations? you got money for a bridge you got money for them.. screw that white mans bridge
🙏🏼 ❤
You never know when it is your time. People spend more time with family. You'll never get that time back. Prayers go out to all who were affected by this tragedy.
It makes you wonder if people on thier death beds ever say, I should spent more money on hookers instead of spending time with my family”
I think that one reporter should not be smiling so hard while reporting on this tragedy.
Smiling to keep from crying 😢
How can you say that! You try doing her job and try to keep it together. You have no idea how she copes with stressful situations. It's a very tragic situation. Let's be kind to each other.
This is not a local news station.
Our local reporters are on a whole different vibe.
But,yes I agree with you
I said the exact same thing
What about the drivers of the cars that plunged into the water? How come nobody’s talking about them?
Maybe They Are The 2 People Rescued From The Water. Or Maybe They Escaped Before The Bridge Collapsed
I heard only maintenance personnel were on bridge
Maybe someone did stop the traffic
You literally saw the last two cars pass the bridge before the collapse..... The emergency call that went out worked at stopping a major loss of life
I said the same thing!
That bridge collapsed like a deck of cards
Yes, a terrible design.
@@mbwilson2625It's actually an amazing design. The failure is they didn't effectively protect the pylons which is the main weak point.
It’s outrageous how easily that bridge fell down.
@@OnlyTwoShoesthat's seems logical this is a FEDDOT issue not to mention who running this country.
This is a huge problem for this supply chain in this country. No doubt. Inflation is going up. Again ... Smh.
Stop the blame game!!instead thank God for lives saved
How can a major harbour like this with a massive bridge and giant ships operate without TUG boats, just seems unbelievable there are no TUGS
Thats just insane
Corporate greed . Costs more
And no concrete bollards to protect the structure from ships...that seems very unwise
@@davidhopper7295 There are tugs active in the Baltimore Harbor. See my post to the OP.
@@richardmckelvey4343 And false. There are tugs operational in the Baltimore Harbor. See my post to the OP.
A mechanical failure can still be a deliberate act of economic sabotage and should be investigated further.
Exactly!
Prayer to the families 😢😢this fuckin sucks

@@richardvolpe7664 what a weird way to troll
Literally she has no respect for God,and she doesn’t know any better. 😢
so does your comment
I know, It happens sometimes
Oh Lord please reveal the people that are still alive and allow them to be saved. Please be with the families of those who have passed away
💝🙏🏻💝
Amen 🙏
Unfortunately i doubt they’re alive. Especially if they were in a vehicle
@@christerry1773 Yeah, they had to suspend the search. The water was very cold, and it was dark at that time of morning.
The federal government shouldn't pay one cent toward the rebuild. The ship's owner and insurance carrier should have to foot the bill.
Yeah, I would have to agree. It's all on them for their negligence. They had problems with this ship beforehand!
You are correct, but likely the ship's owner and insurance carried would not be able to pay.
5:02 why is this reporter so cheerful ?
*WHY IS REBECCA TURCO SMILING????!!!!*
Whats funny about this??
There is nothing funny & definitely shouldn't be used as a political game. Disgusting.
Prayers for the families of those killed 🙏🏼🕊️💞
It seems that the headline should read " bridge destroyed when a heavily laiden cargo ship navigating waters without a pilot on board suddenly went dark, changed course, rammed into and destroyed a critical inforstructure bridge killing several?" It didn't collapse by itself, it was destroyed.
Why don't you wait a couple days till we gather more information @@#@##$%$
It seems a pilot was onboard, and you are not...
Actually there was a pilot on board.
Just curious, why is the reporter Rebecca Turco smiling during her report? It’s a very sad situation. She seems excited that she has the opportunity to report on a disaster.
Demons smile at suffering
That is insane! So scary watching it collapse. Couldn't imagine what the people on that bridge went through. R.I.P.
No traffic on bridge just maintenance personnel. Something fishy here. Maybe money laundering?
Why were the 8 construction workers abandoned on the bridge and left to die?
@athens31415 yeah seems fishy, they had cops prevent cars from going onto the bridge but left a construction crew in the dark an didn't warn them. Their family's need to sue
Those workers were latino inmigrants, RIP
Destinations in 3 places. Keep looking
I can only imagine what the people who just made if off the bridge this morning must be thinking.
I've been thinking about those folks too. And if course the workers 😢
Why were the 8 workers abandoned on the bridge and left to die? They all have families too.
@@athens31415It does feel so sad, especially when workers are often doing jobs that have the least desirable hours, and sacrificing so much as it is.
My husband who is a truck driver just made it off the bridge before it collapsed. Hes shaken up to say the least. My heart and prayers are with the victims and their families 🙏😢💔
@@athens31415 I don’t know that any workers were abandoned. I heard there was a Mayday call made that helped prevent cars or more cars from being on the bridge. If the workers were up in the middle, I don’t know how quickly they could’ve moved to get to safety, unfortunately.
Prayers for the family and friends of those who perished in that tragic collapse. Thank God the ship operators were able to notify LE that there was an impending collision. Just about a minute or so before the crash, there were cars and semi trucks seen on that bridge but LE was able to stop traffic thanks to that call...saved many lives. I just wish they could have got the construction workers out of harms way. It's amazing 2 men actually survived that. Praying the injured one makes a full recovery.
When the ships lights went out the first time. The ship new it was in trouble. My question is... why wasn't the Anchor deployed???
Apparently the port side anchor was deployed but wasn't able to stop the vessel in time
Omg, thats terrible. I have family in Baltimore. Thank God none of them were hurt, some cross the Key bridge twice a day.
Just think if this was at 6pm
It sickens me that a bare mention of human life's lost and the focus is on $$$$ $$$$$$$
Right!!! Thought it was just me
God forbid they not put a perspective of dollars lost in any tragedy 😮 Makes me SICK!!
What els do you expect from democrats? They don't care about people just money and power
Raise your hand if you think this was an accidental electric issue with this ship! Come on electric goes out just in time to hit the bridge. I call BS. Prayers for the families
Ships move slow and extremely predictably. If the crew were competent they would have known the potential of hitting the bridge and alerted the authorities before hitting it.
A better guess would be a fueling problem. They lost all engines, I bet they fueled the ship before it left the dock and system was not set to transport.
Quit.you don't know.
It was reported not long ago, that the Carrier had a Control failure, which was why they were able to call the Harbor.
OMG, everything is not a conspiracy.
I live 1 mile from this bridge, I am still in total shock and my prayers are to the families, i have fished under that bridge at fort armistead, beautiful bridge,but i am just sad at the whole thing
That Singapore company should pay not us
Let's wait for all the evidence.
How old is this bridge?
This very exact ship crashed into a European port back in 2016.
@allenhill1223 not old for a bridge. Chesapeake bay bridge was built in the 50s and is still in good condition
@@allenhill1223It was hit by a 95000 ton ship no bridge nor pillar is made to withstand that
I’m praying for all the families of their missing loved ones. God bless the people searching 🙏🏼💜🙏🏼
You think you're gonna tell God something he doesn't already know?
That is a huge amount of weight on that ship that plowed into a bridge NOT built for that kind of abuse. It’s built to withstand storms and cars not giant cargo ships.
Why would we pay? The shipping company has catastrophic insurance
Maersk would definitely have insurance. Insurance to cover the ship; insurance to cover the cargo; insurance to cover destroying another ship. But insurance to cover the destruction of a major bridge? I don't know.
Assume the momentum of this huge ship was too much for the bridge’s pier barriers. Shows the need of tug boats to escort ships in and out of port. Good the ship captain had sent a warning to close the bridge to traffic.
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!
@@benediktmorak4409things were broken on that ship due to lack of maintenance. Please wait for the full investigation.
@@benediktmorak4409... Apparently the Control System failed,
I remember when the Tugboats were the norm, here.
@@lauriekurad Ich hoffe meine Antwort wird als das gesehen was es ist.
Fragen und Antworten.
Keinen Beschuldigen aber auch nichts Beschönen.
Ich habe damit auch keine Probleme.auch wenn ich das zum ersten Mal höre.
Warum aber dann die riesen schwarze Wolke aus dem Schornstein. Für mich ist das ein Zeichen das der Chefingeneur da - Vollgas - ( - full ahead - ) gibt?
Wenn wohl auch nur recht kurz.
Das der Kapitän Ukrainer ist, hat da mit all dem wohl nichts zu tun.
Befehle gibt ja der Pilot. Und der Steuermann macht dann was ihm der Pilot sagt.
Hätte der Pilot SCHNELL und richtig reagiert,hätte er befohlen, hinten links Anker runter.Dann hätte sich das -systemlose- Schiff weg vom Brückenmasten abgedreht.
-Fremdes Schiff, der Pilot kann nicht alles kennen-, glaube ich nicht.
Wozu ist den sonst der Pilot da.
In einer Episode wurde auch gesagt, der erste Clip wurde von einem Helikopter aus gefilmt.
Woher wusste die Crew da, was wann passieren wird?
Oder wird da der ganze Hafen vom Helikopter überwacht?
Ich glaube in den nächsten Tagen werden wir vielleicht was ganz anderes noch hören?
Und die blöden, hetzerischen und primitiven Kommentare auf youtube sollten gelöscht werden.
They’re trying so hard to make this sound normal. She seems way to excited to be talking about this and it’s all creeps
She doesn't know how to do the 'somber report'
Duping delight.
This whole story is fishy. Why wasn't the horns going off on the ship? Where were it's tug boats? And why did it turn and hit the support beam? 🤔
Should not happen in this day and age.Doesnt that ship have a horn?
@@leeannehudson7314 What's the horn gonna do? Warn the bridge to get out of the way 😂
The mistake was in permitting a ship carrying more than 150,000 tons of goods to pass without an escort of tugboat for safe passage. Loss of power caused the vessel to lose its bearings and strike the support. I am sure this bridge built in 1970's was not meant to allow huge cargo ships carrying more than 150,000 tons of cargo to pass anywhere near its supports without a tow from a towboat. As it is the case here, loss of power prevented the captain to guide the boat away from the supports.
I am so sorry for the lives of those construction workers lost and for their families but something just doesn't make sense to me yet...
Probably an accident. (Which is what the authorities are saying. No one has definitively declared this an accident.) This same ship damaged a dock in Antwerp 8 years ago. The Danish shipping company that chartered the ship was fined, just last year, for firing a whistleblower who complained about safety issues. The crew issued a mayday, allowing police to shut down traffic on both sides of the
bridge, saving lives. The investigation may prove otherwise, but right now it sounds like human error.
@@marysueeasteregg This may be human error but I doubt it. I talked with my Lakota Grandmother a few times last year and she told me about huge food warehouses that were intentionally set on fire and she had done healing using pure organic foods for 40 years I think.
Hundred billion to Ukraine. 500,000,000,000+ spent on illegal aliens. What about us and our bridges and roads Washington DC
There's plenty of money in the US to take care of all those things. You make a completely invalid point. Nobody plans for a massive container ship destroying a bridge.
Hush stop whining
Our government don't give a fuck about nobody here in this country period point blank
Biden already passed the 1.2 trillion dollar inferstructure bill which the GOP tried to block and trump kept bragging about how he was going to do it for 4 years but never did,So stop whining about our inferstructure, Biden has that covered
I totally agree 💯!!!!
Why is your female reporter so cheerful
She is a demon.
Maybe she’s nervous!!!
The news is that traffic was stopped just in time. However, six construction employees are still missing. It's hard to imagine what would have happened if it was rush hour traffic. I remember when the I-35W bridge collapsed into the Mississippi River.
Are they driven by satellite? It was headed for the supports and then lost power?
Prayers to those who perished!😢
Settlement checks for those who survived.
Prayers for those who lost loved ones….from Canada!❤🙏🏻
Thank you, and GOD Bless you 💜
no power for steering? reverse engines? ships horn?
That was so quick...a lot of leverage on the bolts
The whole ship lost power
My hometown... I am heartsick at what has happened to the city and the people of my youth. Baltimore Proud!
My God those poor people. The water is ice cold God be with them and their families
Rest In Peace to the workers who lost their lives.
Prayers to families that lost love ones
This same ship was involved in a wharf crash in Antwerp Belgium 💀
I'm not a bridge designer but "total collapse" in a split second seems maybe under engineered to me?
Gotta love people on the internet not understanding basic laws of physics.
Look like a bridge made out of sticks ........total collapse probably planed out by a bridge engineer for the government funny how they hit such a perfect spot
@@athens31415💯 not to mention being out in the elements for 47 years.
Bridge was 52 years old, it was not designed to take a hit from modern cargo vessels of such size.
Also I believe truss type bridges like this are very reliant on their support pillars, they help the bridge distribute its load in addition to holding it up.
If the pillar is compromised the loads transfer in an attempt to stabilize but it was too much and a cascade of failures happened causing the rapid collapse.
Yep. Maybe not the bridge itself, but the protection for the pilings was most definitely underdesigned.
I really want to hear from the person that was pulled from the Water. I want to hear from them. This is amazing
And what do you expect or want to hear?
It's amazing that many people died? What are you expecting to hear? The bridge collapsed due to the ship. That's it. Weirdo.
Why were the 8 construction workers abandoned on the bridge and left to die in the first place?
This isn't amazing psychopath
@Jame❤❤s.G.Ireland
Why is no one talking about WHY it hit the bridge?
They are just not here.
It lost power and couldn't direct it!
Whenever they flat out deny that there's any malfeasance - without even an investigation being started? That's a coverup. It always is.
Sigh. Will you please listen to what he ACTUALLY SAID?
The spokesman says (verbatim): "I want to be clear. There is no specific or credible evidence to suggest that there are ties to terrorism in this incident."
*Grammatically and logically, that is NOT a flat out denial there was no malfeasance.* It is saying there is no evidence at this time the incident involved malfeasance. Those two statements are significantly different. Maybe the investigation will reveal evidence of terrorism.
But in saying such evidence does not currently exist, he is stating the plain, simple truth.
There IS evidence at this time suggesting (not proving) it was an accident -- the reports the the ship lost power, and especially the ship calling in a mayday, allowing traffic to be halted on the bridge. Terrorists don't commonly take action to minimize loss of life, although it is not unknown.
Or maybe an accident as we a saw.
They don't know exactly what happened here. But within hours of the Moscow Attack they knew who did it !?
What?
They knew on Tuesday and the attack was Friday I believe
because not every situation is the same, get that foil off your head its frying your brain.
@@mist4727their mind is not anywhere your statement is rude. Many Americans are scared, confused and confused.

Well, ISIS almost immediately took credit, with pictures!!
That would kinda be a clue, maybe?
I passed, what I assume was that crew, last night around 9PM on my way home from work. Traffic is light in the night time hours. I didn't listen to the news this morning and thought the closed access ramp was just for road repairs. I was shocked.
Be thankful it wasn’t a few hours later. We just never know. RIP those workmen.
Is that the only bridge that goes across?
Thank the Lord you’re still here🙏
@@LockedNloadEED There are two tunnels but the bridge was the most pleasant way to travel north. Very scenic. I will miss it.
@@LockedNloadEED Indeed, I am heart sick over the lost workers.
There's something rotten in Denmark.....
The Danish shipping company that chartered the ship was fined last year for firing a whistleblower who reported safety issues.
The power failed and it course corrected I mean drifted right twice into a key support pillar? I have questions.
We did see the power go out before the ship approached the bridge but then the lights were on when the ship made a bee line for the bridge pylon.
I think you guys would've gave the family a little respect before you start worried about cars being imported. Worry about the deceased family's. This News Channel is a joke.
Agreed. No respect for human lives in a demonic greedy world

First day on the internet?
It's called reporting the news, it's not a touchy-feely session. It's their job to report the who, what, when, where, and why. There are other agencies that will take care of the your main concern.
They don't inspect the condition of the bridges?

Paul is dead man miss him miss him,,,,,
The main story is … oh the economy blah blah blah. And to come outright and say 6 ppl are dead. Wtf kind of broadcast is this.
The bad kind like CNN & MSNBC does.
Zero compassion
Maybe because lives depend on the economy? Do you have ANY idea what the impact of this will be? Maybe have some compassion with people who's entire livelihood depends on these cargo ship lines? Don't be so arrogant. Economy may just be a word to you, it means paying rent and putting food on the table for many many others.

The way the media talks about this, makes you wonder what actually happened
Whenever they have all the details the second it happened, it’s always fishy.
The whole purpose of the media is to make you watch advertisements. I remember when the Daily Show on Comedy Central was a parody of the news and not one of the most accurate sources.
yeah, right away, they are " this is not a terrorist attack" how do they know? so quickly..fishy
Maybe 🤔... Just a hunch!! Just maybe it's the fact that shit happens 🤷 💁
@@strayspark1967methinks you're catastrophising. Calm yourself. Good night. ❤️
How can they say "there is no ties to terrorism", and they have even cleaned this horrible catastrophy up yet , let alone fully investigated. How can they be that positive this early on?
Because they are democrats
It would not fit the demonrats agenda if it was a terror attack@@RStark-ek7mh
smh Will you please LISTEN? The spokesman and the reporter are not saying there are no ties to terrorism. They are saying *there is no evidence this was tied to terrorism.* Those two statements have VERY different meanings. It would be irresponsible for the authorities to say "there are ties to terrorism" when there is no evidence at this time! And there isn't evidence of terrorism at this time. The evidence right now (evidence is not proof) suggests this was an accident. The ship reported losing power, the ship put out a mayday, saving lives by traffic being shut down on the bridge.
This is like finding a college student's intact body in bed in the dorm, and the police putting out an initial statement: "There is no evidence of foul play." An investigation might reveal otherwise, but at the time, it is the simple, plain truth. NO EVIDENCE.
Because there are no signs of terrorism. Ever thought about that?
That ship loaded was about 850,000 ton ! What would have stopped that 😮
Facts
Exactly! People just don't engage their brains.
Watch the whole video of the ship leaving dock..... you can see the power go out several times...... it took a while for it to drift and make contact with the bridge

Corrupt biden will use this bridge damage to brieb voters of Maryland by forcing all repair costs for this bridge to be paid for by American Taxpayers, not Maryland State Taxpayers.
To keep Biden's economy afloat.

I rode that current/new silver bridge on US 35 between gallipolis, oh & point pleasant, wv yesterday morning. You can see the silver bridge, the kanawha river bridge & the kanawha river & ohio river junction. The silver bridge has what looks like a recent paint job, it looks good. Great views!!
Why was a barge so close into the bridge.or over loaded.
That was no barge. That was a fully loaded (no reports of it being overloaded) seagoing container ship weighing 95,000 tons and headed for Sri Lanka. It reportedly lost power and drifted off course.
I remember when the bulk carrier Lake Illarwarra took down the Tasman Bridge in Hobart Tasmania back in January 1975. Now every time a ship goes under the bridge they stop traffic. You would think that the world would take note of our disaster when they look at bridge safety.
How on earth did the bridge fall so easy
Not enough Riprap around the base. I want to know why the anchor wasn't dropped early on.
It's called basic laws of physics. Most people are vastly underestimating the sheer size and weight of that cargo ship.

It hit a beam
An experienced engineer said it shouldn't have
I hope they let people know how this happened but they will probably lie to us the way they have been there
My full condolences to All victims family involved and friends.🙏.
Really sad and heartbreaking,
I drive a rig for Old Dominion Freight Line which is located on Hawkins Point Rd. just off exit 1 on the Curtis Bay side of the bridge and I drive across that bridge every morning around 5:30/5:45 heading for Harford county on my first run of the day. I drive across the key multiple times a day and I cant begin to tell you how many times over the last 19yrs I've been coming across the top of the bridge as one of those ships is passing under it at the same time never thinking that the ship might hit the bridge. It just goes to show that you never know when your number might be called, what a terrible tragedy .
They say that same ship hit something in 2016, they should have set it down for more than 8 years, now that same ship had another accident and took ppl lives, it's scary to go to work knowing if you're gonna die or not, jus think of working for 30 and 40 years and you loose your life not of old age but for some shit you have no control over 😢😢.. shit sad ppl need to start duin what they would die trying to do not die working for others, this shit hurts my heart that these ppl lost there life working to take care their family left behind their families and friends..jus to wake up and your other half isnt there and you calling no answer and you don't know whats happened until you see the news is terrifying!!
Honestly I wish we didn’t have to put our lives on the line daily 😔 especially when this stuff could be avoided.
How about insurance payment for the bridge 😮
Biden already said our country will pay to rebuild the bridge at the conference today. You know that's you and I tax money.
@@thanhdrummer2462 how about insurance
Has to be insured...traitor Joe is blowing his horn at our expense...he's known to double dip👍🇺🇲🙏
To the workers on the bridge - Rest In Peace, and my deepest condolences to their families.
This is the worst disaster in the history of mankind. How do they know terrorism was not a factor? Thoughts and loving prayers to the millions that lost their lives today. May God give comfort to all the family members, and the few survivors. I once took a day trip from Monterey, California, to Morro Bay, California, and we had to go over so many super high bridges. I was absolutely terrified each time we went over a bridge, and I have not gone over one ever since. Way too terrifying for me. 🌎😭🙏🙏🙏🙏
Umm... Are you fair dinkum...? You must have missed your last 2-3 covid booster shots...
this lady reporter has a smile how heartless
Pretty little bleach blond smiles as she tells you about the plane crash ,dirty laundry........
Why were the 8 construction workers abandoned on the bridge and left to die?
They were literally in the middle section doing repairs. There is no way they could speed down the ½ mile stretch that isn't a steel truss section
So ship did not blow horn?
