It did look like after the control was returned, it seemed to target the pillar instead of try to avoid it. I would like to see the control room cameras from the steering area.
That accident could had been avoided had the US government authorities had installed concrete barriers in front of the bridge foundations to prevent ships from hitting it, like they do with new bridges. It was negligence on the part of the government.
Yeah these things happen. Governments only do what we require them to do.
Exatamente.
Sai baratin.
wow, you should have written them a letter telling them to do that,
I'm sure it was scheduled as part of Trump's Infrastructure Week.
Utter nonsense.
It couldn't have been any worse for those poor souls who died there
Yeah, the real reason might not have been exposed. That would've been worse.

“Too late 😢😢”
honestly? Emojis??
The sun will never cease to amaze at how unprofessional their journalism actually is…
Its Port authority of Baltimore responsible,not covering all the possibilities.
Poor design, a bridge over a shipping channel that can be destroyed from one pillar being knocked out. Negligence at its finest.
So very sad to see. At least 6 people are known to have fallen into river during this accident .😢😢😢My prayers go out to their families.😢😢😢
Surely the bridge should have been made strong enough knowing that its possible, a boat could hit it? Should have always been ready for that type of thing..
Boats today are three times the mass of what would have been planned for in the 1970s. Nobody thought to retro-fit the piers with fenders as the need for them developed. After this disaster, we're going to see a lot of exactly that.
@@jpdemer5 it's a shame that it came to this first.. I pray this will be the only one.. it's like the UK's underground.. as much as it's always fixed ect.. the ventilation in the summer is something that needs investigating.
@@zoebo18 Bit late for it to be the only one. Look up the Sunshine Skyway Bridge disaster.
@@jpdemer5 ok are you in America? .. just asking as then you would know more than me.. but if you're not.. well you know your stuff.. guess they won't learn..
@@zoebo18 We're stuck with politicians who only do what the very rich want done.
Yeah, that bridge came down WAY TOO easily! There was NOTHING of strength surrounding the supports! That bridge was just an accident waiting to happen and I can't believe the builders didn't know that all along! Negligence!
Why wasn’t the ship being towed out by tugs, one on the bow and one on the stern being attached to the ship, and one on the port and one on the starboard side which would be used to push against the hull if got into difficulty. The bridge construction leaves a lot to be desired with no defences around the bridge supports.
How this even coulded happen??? Tragedy. Innocent people passed away by this tragedy. Vessel can be fixed, bridge can be fixed. But people you will not return. Tragedy of course😥
well remember the titanic
At 0:46 you can clearly see the bow did take down the pillars before the pier did stop ship. Pillars were not protected at all, in 1980 similar accident happened, but bow only did "chip" pillar.
The ship's lights went out, as did the steering. I'd look at the generators if there was a total loss of power like that. There should be a backup system in place, and I'd want to know why that failed as well.
That bridge fell apart faster than my marriage
The collision is too convenient to be passed off as a bonafide accident. There were many places around the harbor the ship could have run into and grounded, but the bullseye was the bridge pier. Three commercial jets found their target with ease. There needs to be one imperious person in charge of the whole cleanup or there will be delays and a lot of buck-passing.
And we didn't land on the Moon, and CIA and Mafia killed Kennedy, and the Earth is flat. Anything else you want to add?
ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਲੇਖੇ ਹਾਂ ਤੁਸੀ ਇਸਨੁ ਇੰਕਾਰ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਸਕਦੇ ਸਭ ਸੱਚੇ ਪਾਤਸ਼ਾਹ ਦੀ ਮਰਜ਼ੀ ਹੈ ਮਗਰ ਜੋ ਇਸ ਦੁਖਦ ਦੁਖਾਂਤ ਵਿੱਚ ਮਰੇ ਹੋਏ ਨੇ ਓਹਨਾ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਨਾਲ ਮੇਰੀ ਹਮਦਰਦੀ ਹੈ 💐🕊️❤
So many things are accidental to call 'coincidence'.
No tug boats. This bridge was whacked on purpose as a blind man could figure out in about 30 seconds.
I think they lost steering, not the mains. The lights run on generators separate from the mains. Also 7 knots is kind of fast. That speed limit should be 3 knots. Was it foreign flagged?
Singapore flagged. Very few cargo ships are US-flagged, since we have inconvenient regulations.
You’re saying it could be worse. It should never have happened . It is a lose of life wether it be 6 or 1006. Families lost loved ones.😢😢😢
Lost Steering??? Was It hacked or not?
Well the ship is on way out so river current is the same way maybe that set the direction
This raises more questions. I do not trust the narrative one bit.
That title is so stupid, don't need a expert to know it could of been worse smfh
If this were an accident, in afternoon...worse
Was It hacked or not?!
Yeah, that would be another Hallifax. Another reason to look closely at possibility of sabotage.
Как и обещали-уничтожили.😂
Hacker Attack!
Dig a tunnel??
This is a big tragic of HUMAN ERROR by the crews member on board. it caused her Power Main Engine failure and Generator shut down and The Crews member looks like they never done of the Emergency Steering Drill when her generator Black Out to control Course Heading by manual Steering Gear Pumped . also she late dropped her port Anchor. that's why she was drifted by Sea Current and lost control to avoid collision to The Bridge and she looks like DEATH SHIP.
OMG‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼
god bless the who lost there lives
The bridge looks like made of paper.
Exactly! Tooth picks or pick-up sticks!
Not a lot.
😢😢😢
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿😔
Hahahaha 😂
This is not news i dont care at all
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it's a f****** set up from the Democrats you thank i do just saying every one it is trust me
Украинский капитан выполнил задание по уничтожению моста!😂
it couldve have been worse if it was peak hour traffic
The entire bridge was brought down by the collision alone. How could an explosion have made it any worse?
