Can't help but feel grateful it was 1:30 am, when most people are in their beds, can't... don't want to imagine what it could have been 7 or 8 hours later.
Awful ! Imagine the death toll if it was rush hour .
I’m sure that was Plan A
It looks like traffic was shut off prior to the collapse as the ship was having problems
It looks like safety vehicles on the bridge
@@Justmekpc in some videos with better angles, you can see semis and many cars passing before the bridge was struck
@@bored2028 yes before but it looks like they shut off traffic just before the collapse
Totally ages Agree
That bridge fell apart like popsicle sticks and silly string were holding it up. Prayers for those involved.
Not sticks , steel and concrete. Boats the problem. They could build bigger caisons.
You seem to be not understanding of the massive size and weight of that boat. 8 knots with a boat that size will do damage easy, especially to a support structure.
@@Sanic55 exactly, look at skyway bridge caisons . After that bridge accident they are much bigger now so when ship hits it won't reach bridge.
Thank God it wasn't heavy traffic! 🙏 for the people that was on the bridge at the time of collapse.
If you watch the live video, there are no cars or semis on the bridge. There are only construction and service vehicles. It was a direct hit, no accident. This was intentional.
@@universalmother If you paid attention to live video you would have seen that the lights on the ship turned off and back on twice just before they hit the bridge. They were having power outages and probably had no control of the rudder and engines at the worst possible moment.
@@EAAFalkenauge It is not very nice of you to try and deceive others. We already know this was planned and executed perfectly. We are one of the few insiders who get to speak freely about what is. Don't believe us? Just look at our video history. 😎
@@EAAFalkenauge Why are you trying to deceive others? This was planned. The evidence is clear regardless of red herrings.
@@EAAFalkenauge The evidence is clear. This was no accident.
Isn't it everyone's nightmare when on a bridge having it collapse. Ever think how deep will my car go and could I get out. Poor people.
p sure the ship called mayday long before so the bridge was already shut down

I usually don’t think about it, but yes
No.@@communionshaped
@@communionshaped no, cars were traveling along it
Praying for all involved...
This is absolutely horrible...
Imagine the people trapped in the car, it's hard to open the car when submerged in water. This was sudden and unexpected.
Watch the live feed of the collapse. No cars or semis on the bridge at time of collapse. Only vehicles are road and service vehicles. This was intentional. Watch the trajectory of the boat at double speed.
The cargo ship lost propulsion in the currents took it into the bridge doubling its speed.
@@JT-un7dc You actually believe that? Okay... 🫤
Get a glass breaker.
@@universalmotherIf it was intentional, they would’ve waited for rush hour.
It’s blocking the Baltimore Harbor! A major harbor. This is going to get so much worse.
That's what I was thinking as well. The wreckage is blocking the harbor from new shipping, and the trucks that use the bridge instead of the Baltimore tunnel will now have to reroute.
It’s a crime scene.. incalculable damage and death.. that needs to open back up immediately.
These are the disasters city and state workers have nightmares about cause they never happen.. and when they do people die. This is REALLY bad news. Like.. no good comes of this, it’s just terrible.
Billions of tax dollars the state doesn’t have will be required.
@@Errcycobreath there were very few vehicles on the bridge and it’s clear the ship was having power problems
@@Justmekpc doesn’t matter people lost their life due to this doesn’t matter if it was fewer vehicles or not
@@monyerivers397 yes it does as losing a dozen or a thousand is a huge difference
It looks like they stopped traffic luckily and yes I care that anyone died
My condolences to all the families🤯💔🙏🏽
thanks but mine is OK.
@@auang not 100% you are part of them
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
It went down as if made of toothpicks !
So do you when you get leg swept by 100K tonnes
Made in USA🤣😂
One of the two major pillars was hit by what looks like a 150,000 ton cargo ship…of course it’s going to collapse
Cheap Chinese steal
@@user-gs1ji1up1lFor a bridge built in the 70s, ok, sure, if you say so
Nobody gonna mention the ship did the same thing in the movie - LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND
Such a horrible way to die 😢
There are much....much worse...
@@redsable6119 nobody said it was the worse. stop comparing deaths to each other. A man who drowned in a 7 foot deep pool is as dead as a man who drowned in a 70 foot deep ocean 🤦🏿♂️
@@redsable6119 For example, the napalm bombs that America dropped on the Vietnamese.
@@auangYes being set on fire, a fire that can't be put out is one of them.
@@redsable6119who asked you d*mn goofball! It’s always some weirdos like you that want attention
This is towards the top of my phobia list. This video doesn't help... my heart hurts for those families of the people who were on that bridge.
Red flag event as usual. what phobia?!!. Stop trying to scare people these freak show events are staged one after the other!.
Prayers out to whoever was on the bridge 🙏
How does an entire bridge collapse over a ship hitting one of the support columns?? You’d think with all of the engineers required to build something like this, they would anticipate something like a ship hitting it. Doesn’t make sense.
It was a power issue buddy reported by the ships crews (they don’t know if that’s the only reason) it was also hit by a ship that was 984-feet long, and 213 million pounds which was to much for the bridge to handle
do you understand how heavy a freaking ship is
R.I.P For those who died including my grandma and my aunt
God save the poor souls on the bridge.
too late
Seems the ship approached the bridge on course when it left the dock but shortly before going under the bridge it steered to the right and hit the support. Seems weird as there should have been a pilot guiding the ship out, the ship had been there before and the bridge did have plenty of lights on it. Wonder if technical issue. The ship weighted over 95,000 toms plus it's cargo of approx 10,000 containers, so it would have been near impossible to stop it in time or correct the corse error..
It either lost steering or propulsion as it approached the bridge, possibly both. Yes, it would have had a harbor pilot on board, mainly to help them exit the river and enter the bay a few miles beyond the bridge. This looks like a series of failures to me.
@@chrisdraughn5941 Ship lost power. Lights went out twice. Watch video
In another video it showed the ship lights shutting off at least twice prior to impact. This suggests the ship was experiencing power failure prior to impact. Large plumes of black smoke pouring out of the funnels too. Maybe the engineers were trying to reverse but it takes a long time to stop a fully loaded cargo hauler in water.
This is just speculation based off that video though. I'm sure more information will come to light in the coming days.
Possible sabotage. Our country is under attack. This bridge was named after the author of our National Anthem.
@@DerpyPenguin4747 Yes, I just found a much higher resolution video that showed the ship’s lights going dark and coming back on. They also dropped the port-side anchor and tried to slow its forward movement by going into reverse. I suspect that’s what caused it to turn into the pylon. Perhaps they would have stayed in the channel if they just let it drift? I’m sure it was a tense and chaotic moment on the bridge.
My prayers are with those missing this is major that bridge was a life line for so many I also want to thank from the uk the brave emergency services on the ground
Captain called authorities before the crash to let them know they lost steering control. Not sure why they couldn't get a couple tugs out there to push the vessel out of harm's way. Scary how the bridge collapsed so (seemingly) easily.
Or drop anchor?
Who was driving the boat? Where’s his picture?
So sad and scary that one ship could take the whole bridge down.
They need bigger caisons around the piers
20-yr old bridge with new technology shipping vessels.@@robertbiondo
Oh please help everone involved, JFC, this is terrifying.
You have no idea waitt till wore starts. Read the Bible atheist your time is short.
Prayers to all. This is so sad. 😢 God bless all involved.
Why don't they show how the barge made a sharp turn straight into the pillers?..
People still in the water. Container ship trapped in bridge wreckage. Baltimore Harbor closed. Figure 1.2 trillion to replace bridge. 10 Million lost each day harbor closed.
No way 1.2 trillion. But clearly politicians and mates will be taking a nice cut of any bridge replacement sadly.
That ship company or employee will pay a lot of if corrupt, the tax would be used.
It's a recovery , they are dead
What a tragedy! That ship needs to be hold accountable! 😡
They will. It’s absolutely on the captain. The only thing that will get him out of this is if his engines went down about four minutes before they hit the bridge. But the bridge itself was clearly not well designed the fact that hitting one part of it took the whole thing out is pretty ridiculous.
@@elizabethstanley4541 Or the pilot. In those waters the ship would have been navigating under instructions from the harbour pilot. But this looks like a mechanical problem rather than human error.
@@mirandahotspring4019 the human error came when they didn’t close the bridge immediately after that ships power went out and they did know immediately because the ship had to have been telling the port authority what was going on. They waited to the last second to stop the traffic from driving through and that is why that crew was left on the bridge. If they had considered the lives of the people working on the bridge, they would have absolutely stopped traffic the minute the power went out on that ship. Everyone who was on the radio and was there focused on the situation knew that the minute that power went out that ship was more than likely going to hit the bridge no matter what they did. They were way too close to the bridge. Already to have any issues.
@@elizabethstanley4541 Why don't we wait until the investigation is completed and made public before blaming people.
It does take time to put plans into practice. But there were vehicles with flashing lights on the bridge before the ship struck the pier.
From the sounds of it, the ship lost propulsion and the ship sent a mayday to the shore telling everyone they had lost control of the ship.
You just never know when your last day can be 😢
That had to be intentional
Yeah sure, it was a boring day in heaven so god reached down with his finger to a random ship in a random part of the world and gave it a tiny flick...
Why didn't It go up under the high part, instead of straight into the support beam pillar.
Very sad, heart-breaking accident !
Absolutely unbelievable. Been on that bridge many times. I hope all those people that were on the bridge make it.
Is it just a coincidence that the ship hit that bridge where so much cargo comes in to the country looks super fishy to me !!!
Have Mercy!
how the hell did they hit that theres so much space to navigate
Also happened in Tampa Bay FL some years back but at least it was in daytime.
The Sunshine Skyway?
Nightmare
My heart goes out to the families of the victims, and I hope a thorough investigation will be made to deal with the firms involved.
Where the ship is from?
The port
@@bignuts850 💀💀💀
Sad prayers to the family's loved ones so sorry 😔
The bridge did not collapse on its own as so many videos say, it was hit at the pillar causing the bridge to be dismantled.
All the videos give the impression that the bridge was in a bad state that made it vulnerable leading to its collapse.
I hate bridges in general because of this idk if I’m ever going on a bridge now if there is a boat/ship under it
My nephew is in the Navy, I just got a text about this a few minutes ago. His comment, he thinks this is deliberate. A passage of a ship under a bridge is carefully calculated. There’s something nefarious about this you watch. IS TAKING DOWN THIS BRIDGE A WARNING SIGN?
No, you're a paranoid idiot. The ship lost its engines and power twice, as seen in the full video. They tried to steer away after the first power loss but lost their engines again.
It wasnt deliberate. You literally see the video of the crash. The ship was having electrical problems. Lights on the ship was turning on and off. They was trying to get the electric problems fixed. The current pushed the ship into the pillar. It was too late for the ship to get back on course.
@@TheBlazersfan22 these days anything can happen. I guess we’ll find out soon enough. But it had to be with great force to bring that pillar down. do you think a current pushing ship that sign over to the left into that pillar would be that strong. I’m sure we’ll find out
@@TheBlazersfan22lmfao just because it was having problems, doesn’t mean it wasn’t intentional
Why is the barge not floating in the fairway?
Ok, so the ship looses it's bow light(s) when it first colldes with the bridge, but strangely the entire ship is in total darkness, no lighting visible whatsoever along it's entire length...Very strange to see...onboatd power or electrical failure...??? 🤔
Ship lost power and engines twice before the collision
That’s just terrible going 8knots and to collide into the pillar.
Can't believe they don't have the pillars of the bridge guarded
Well maybe now they would be adding those for future bridges
Stopping a 100 tons would be incredibly expensive
@@jrdavis8062 well right off the bat we can tell you don't have a clue what you're talking about! A 100 tons try more like 165,000 tons. And protective bollards are the norm for most bridges these days and yes they can stop a ship
Many modern bridges do have protective surrounds of piers. A very similar event happened to the Tasman Bridge in Hobart Tasmania decades ago. It was / is made from reinforced concrete not shabby looking steel sections.
@@deannelson9565 So, it wouldn't be expensive?
That bridge went down rather easily, bridges should be built to withstand accident hits but ships and boats.
This would be similar to a mac truck carrying a load of concrete running into your house and people complaining that the house should have been built to withstand it.
You can see the construction vehicles on the bridge and them falling when it collapses so scare and sad! Hopefully they look into it and the propulsion was the problem because the ship did come from Japan?
Why didn't they drop their anchor?
I look at that, and wonder why they never protected those supports with a man made break, consisting of those star shaped concrete constructions they use around breakwater’s etc, like concrete Tank traps. Or some other protection. Placed around the pillars at sufficient distance away would have stopped that ship. 😔
Such a beautiful Bridge. It is truely So horrific what has happened prayers for all the victims and their families pray that they are found and return home to their loved ones.A sad lose the the community God Bless you all . warm and hopeful wishes 🙏💗💐🌈From RSA
Was it deliberate??? it looks deliberate
my same thinking if you watch the whole vid it seems very intent
Agreed, that happens all the time and it doesn't collapse like controlled demo.
Are you asking CBS to explain what you see with your own eyes?
Use your brain.
Trust your gut.
@@godswarrior2952 you conspiracy nuts don't waste any time, do you?
@@jonq8714they lack common sense like these ^ do
Unthinkable
Someone's insurance company won't be happy campers this morning.
Not really, in Maritime Law the victims are liable. The shipping companies are protected by the Limitation of Liability Act.
All of them. They purposefully share this sort of risk. Billions and at least 5 years before it's sorted. The claims adjusters job will suck
why have you not shown the whole vid before it hit bridge ??????????????
Thank you! If they did, maybe fewer idiots here would be screaming about it being intentional!
Wow! People who work over the bridge. Hope there is another way for people to get to work.
How? I feel for every individual involved my goodness but being a common route, how does a ship miscalculate that bad
Edited from this morning?
May God give eternal rest to those involved in the accident
Was it on purpose?
Absolutely. It corrected the steering before it hit. My gut says the immigrants they let in are starting their attack.
I think so💯😡😡😡😡
I noticed that the ship light were on but then went out before the impact then on again at the moment of impact. Strange.
Whoever was steering the ship may have lost control somehow and couldn’t change the direction of the ship or stop it.
@dtksoulchaser1 Why would immigrants be responsible for this? Being a sailor like this would require months if not years of training, and knowledge of the routes boats take.
no it wasn't
I believe I will do tomatoes and cucumbers in my new 4x4 garden bed with marigolds. What to you all think?😊
Looks to me like the power was lost a second after impact. Not a minute before as reported.
Why are there cameras looking a video on the ship when it collapsed that seems like they just put the cameras there other than bumped into it to be cool
I hated bridges under water ima hate them even more now.
From a long video of the collapse it appears that traffic was shut down at that time.
They probably got word to close the toll booths.
The only people on the bridge were probably construction workers and police directing traffic around the work area.
It’s incredible that this has never happened before. There can be all kinds of undercurrent in the water that can easily move ships like that especially if their engines go out. When were they radioing for help because their ship was well off course before it ran into the bridge.
Who's ship and did they do it on purpose?
I dont remember whose ship it was but it wasnt on purpose it was a technical issue
Relaxed regulations and complacency no doubt.
Look at the video. It's not a accident.
ISIL- K.
100%
Stop it. Damn I hate you ppl
It's an accident. One thing gives it away.
@@controllerbrainyup… that THING
The workers can be accounted for. They clocked in this morning so the company knows who is missing. So family can be notified. Such a tragic incident. Those cargo ships are huge. And hard to control. But it looks like the bridge wasn't very securely structured either. It just crumpled so quickly. I hope everyone is found. Maybe a suspension bridge can be made in its place and made higher for ships to go under. Pray everyone is found. So sad this happened.
I saw the video and I find it odd that it turned TOWARD the bridge plus they're happened to be workers in the middle of the bridge to clear traffic....... also where was the tugs or pilot inboard to navigate through as required and FYI diesel fuel doesn't ignite so I hope they do an investigation
It didn’t turn, it lost power and current took it.
The reason workers blocked the bridge is because the ship sent out a distress signal and the bridge was warned before it was hit.
How has this not happened b4 now , human error is a very real thing?
Yes it has. Florida YOU CAN RESEARCH BEFORE SAYING DUMD SHIT
How are you on a RESEARCH TOOL AND STILL DUMD AS HELL. GOOGLE WILL LET YOU KNOW YOU ARE WRONG DUMD ASS. I HATE YOU IGNORANT PPL.
Dear geechi, I believe they are asking about this bridge not the one in Florida...😆
Your car ever break down
That bridge collapsed like a cheap erector set.
It's because of the design of the bridge. They're sturdy if the supports are there, but all of those metal supports are under load, so once you lose that one support, the whole structure is gonna go. I read that the bridge has been standing for 47 years, so it wasn't badly made.
@@JanGoh-jb5ge or it’s because it was intentional
Was the ship on fire were there other boats there in the water
I hope it was a mechanical error and not negligence from the captain. Good thing it happened at night when there were a lot fewer people on the bridge. It could have been a lot worse.
“A lot fewer”… jfc.
Ship Captain and his engineers have to be questioned
Hoorble design if taking out ONE column causes the entire one-and-one-half-mile-long bridge to collapse!! Amazing and frightening video of the collapse!
The same thing would happen to any bridge if it loses a column 💀
@@heartofthestreetsproductio8578 I'm sure you are right, but I believe if money wasn't the determining factor bridges could be designed to be safer by not depending on a minimum of columns to hold it up.
Premeditated or otherwise, it's bad omen, simply not good!😮
Let's hope that wasn't an accidental terrorist attack nowadays everything and anything that happens is absolutely suspect to some serious bulshit
They would have did it in the daylight. Go back to the drawing board
Barge never goes alone, wheres tugboat and pilot boat? Rigged
Those looked like emergency or law enforcement vehicles on the right side of the bridge. I see a lot of flashing lights on them.
Construction crew
@@fdlc4LRoad repair crew to be more specific, filling potholes.
Tomato, tomoto
This is incalculable damage. Not to mention the brutal deaths of anyone who was in that bridge.
It’s a crime scene and also a MASSIVE traffic artery. You talk about a bad situation? 👆that’s it. My heart with the people that died and their families. No one deserves to go like that except Ruby Franke and Jodi Hilderbrant.
Crime scene? Because the ship lost all power twice before hitting the bridge?
Singapore ship, huh?
Yup apparently 22 crew members were in that cargo ship.
WOW!!!
A bridge in a major waterway, without reinforced pillars?? Bad idea...
Bigger casion
Just seems odd the entire thing would go down.
Look closely at the top left to right explosions the boat is a decoy look at this hand 😥
Who owns the boat? Where was the shipment headed?
Trump boat
Heading for jail
@@bignuts850 no it’s evidently owned by Singapore
This is either one of three things. 1. A terrorist attack that’s being covered up 2. Pi diddy 3. A ship that was in disrepair
4. It ran out of power. Stop the baseless conspiracies
The ship lost power. The crew issued a mayday which helped prevent more cars from going on the bridge.
Captain was on TikTok
Any ship in the harbor is supposed to be piloted by a Maryland harbor pilot NOT a captain. If a captain was at the helm somebody will have his guts for garters. If a licensed Maryland harbor pilot backed a ship into the bridge there is going to be a massive investigation.
The bridge looks rather unhealthy, can't believe thousands of people were traveling on it
Exactly what does a healthy bridge look like? Especially in the dark?
It was demolished. U can see it look close.
A ship struck the bridge and the bridge collapsed. Why is the ATF involved?
Because they suck?
ATF involved in a marine shipping accident? I fail to see the connection. Care to explain?
@@suzannek3406 that’s what I was wondering, what are they doing there? Have they run out of lawful gun owners to harass?
Was this an attack ?
Who owns the cargo ship? That was insanely negligent.
There should have be pilots (who know the waterway like the back of their hand) onboard to guide the ship out to sea.
Grace Ocean Pte and managed by Synergy Marine = Singapore
If this were gun violence, the perpetrator would be on the news with a mugshot already
Typical heavy hauling ship they say. Failure at 8 knots.
@@jmdec20 7.9 I heard.
Something fishy here.
Probably a few fish with headaches.
Interesting fact, did you know that the ship was operated by a captain from Ukraine?
It was american its in your law of country
I didn't see a tractor trailer drop in the water
So your telling me there was perfectly a camera at the right time watching this go down? Seems suspicious.
The camera recording is a live camera that is on 24/7. Do your research.
You asked that without researching? Seems ignorant.
Terrible 😮 pray for all 🙏🙏🙏
