At about 1.30am, a vessel crashed into the bridge, catching fire before sinking and causing multiple vehicles to fall into the water below, according to a video posted on X. “All lanes closed both directions for incident on I-695 Key Bridge. Traffic is being detoured,” the Maryland Transportation Authority posted on X. The Baltimore mayor, Brandon M Scott, and and the county executive, Johnny Olszewski Jr, said emergency personnel were at the scene and rescue efforts were under way.

In a movie, the bridge would take about 5 minutes until it collapses after the crash. In real life, it took less than 5 seconds. It is devastating how fast your fate is decided when you are at the wrong place at the wrong time.
18 seconds to be precise
Lol
Are you saying the movies aren't real?
I think it depends on bridge.
A bridge as massive as the red bridge from San Francisco could take alot damage, until it collapses.
This one is just basically a wooden plank.
What do you mean wrong place at the wrong time??? I'm pretty sure most people did this in their daily life the bridge falling was not their fault?
That bridge took about 5 years to build (April 1972 - March 1977) and less than 30 seconds to collapse entirely.
4 seconds to collapse

To all those who r wondering about civilian casualties, The ship reported a power failure before impact, which enabled officials to stop traffic on the bridge before the collapse.
Thanks.
@@QuilaGee Seems unlikely. Judging from the video, there appeared to be very little time between the power loss and the collision/collapse.
There are reported 6 people missing, so idk man
@@tituskriswanto5110they were construction workers working on a repair... 2 of their bodies recovered 😕
Unfortunately the crews that were responsible for stopping traffic were on the bridge and died

You can kinda tell by how slow it falls
Any comparison? I live in California btw lol

And it doesn't show that this ship is 1000 ft long and weighs 140,000 tons. The bridge stood no chance.
people don’t realize this is a san francisco bay bridge sized structure collapsing into one of the busiest shipping channels in the us
Yeah, I admit I thought the boat was like 3/4 the size it actually was until I saw video of it this morning OMFG. Now I understand

How could this happen? They say there were people working on the bridge at the time. Do you know if that’s true?
@@rhondafromupstateny The ship appears to have lost power and drifted into the bridge, and people have definitely died unfortunately.
@@TheRealTaco We will definitely have to wait and find out what happened. Could it be the captain’s error? Or some sort of foul play? It was brought up that they were working on the bridge when this happened. Something doesn’t sound right about this.
I've been on this bridge multiple times before and even sailed out of the port for a cruise. This is insane to watch this happen.
It's crazy how a heavy and strong steel bridge can collapse like a house of cards in a matter of seconds.
A ship of that size making contact is basically a few tnt exploding.
@@josephp9141 Yet the ship was left almost unharmed
I always wondered how sturdy a huge, long bridge would be if it's balancing like a seesaw on what are essentially metal sawhorses and then it gets hit by something. Now I know. [Sn4-21-24-1328E]
It was like a house built on a weak foundation.

within seconds
Yes. This is NOT possible.
Bridges are strong, but only against forces in specific directions. Seeing huge sections go with it makes sense; they're designed to hold onto each other. Seeing a ship hit a bridge doesn't make sense.
@@lauralauren6432several thousand ton boat hitting it at potentially 20 knots, lotta kinetic energy there
right in my backyard and it’s now worldwide news. crazy to actually hear the insanely loud noises it made and have no idea what actually happened until hours later
That's straight outta Final Destination. Praying for everyone involved 😢
That’s what I was thinking but you said it!!😢
Whenever I cross a bridge like that and see water I think about that possibility.
Sure
Bro, what did Mordecai and Rigby do this time?
For some context:
- Baltimore is the 8th busiest port in America. This will close it for months. All shipping in and out is done.
- The span is 4 lanes, and a mile long. The abutting structure is even longer. Even at a late hour, it is safe to assume dozens of vehicles were on the bridge.
- I-695 is essentially the "Baltimore beltway" - it's designed to allow traffic to skirt the main highway tunnels closer to the city.
😢😢😢
there were only 8 city service vehicles and 3 civilian vehicles on the bridge during the collapse. so if anything the casualty number is gonna be really low.
Reports so far say only 11-12 vehicles at the time of collapse.
I saw this on Facebook and was like this can’t be 😮 my lord I was wrong
@@SapphiresAbyss That’s still bad no matter how many lives are lost
Calling a container ship a “large boat” is absolutely ridiculous
well they aren't wrong
I am fairly certain the definition of ship is 'very large boat'
@@roleplayingpain4349It's not. A ship is a particularly large vessel that relies on boyancy through the shape of it's hull to stay afloat. Unlike a boat
@@benjaminpadilla1464Yes, now tell us all about sloops and dinghies and man-o-wars and barges and cruisers and... and just accept that literally everything outside of a frickin' jetski is referred to as a boat by people that don't give a toss about boats.
@@ObscuraDeCapraNOOOOOOO 😡😭
Must be friggin terrifying to be on the bridge when it collapsed. Tragic
Reminds me a bit of what happened in Hobart in Tasmania, Australia in 1975. A cargo ship hit a pylon of a large bridge and brought it down cars and all. Only in that case on top of the ship that promptly sank.
I am a former seafarer from the Netherlands..... and am deeply shocked to see these images. my condolences go out to the family, friends and acquaintances of the victims of this enormous tragedy.
question sir, can a ship lose control because it run out of power????
@@mchepenthink about it if your car loses power do you have power steering or control ?If you lose power on a boat and ship in this case you are at mercy of the water currents

This is such a tragedy. I don’t live near Baltimore, but this disaster has deeply affected the entire country. I’m just thankful they were able to get mostly everyone off the bridge after the ship out an SOS. But there were still casualties.
So 7 construction workers missing, along with 4 personal vehicles equaling up to 20 missing. Ship appears to have lost power in the minute leading up to the crash, where it drifted into the bridge at 7 knots and collapsed it.
Does that affect the steering though?
@@theeggtimertictic1136 yes it affects steering, without power it is just drifting in the water without any ability to control its direction. So the current, wind, and last rudder position could all affect the direction the ship goes once the power goes out.
@@Plorxium ok so that could be an issue. Bridges should have some sort of protective barriers to their pillars ... They are very vulnerable!
@@theeggtimertictic1136 Yes, especially for a port that can only be accessed by crossing under that bridge, you would think there would be some kind of concrete barriers to protect the bridge. It's also one of the busiest ports on the east coast too.

Narcissists
Show the footage of before it hit, the boat had a power blackout and there was smoke billowing out of the top of it. This makes me mad you only show it hitting and people are blaming the Captain.
This was a strategic AI attack meant to cause hysteria during one of the most important election years of the 21st century 2024. Think about it. This ship suddenly lost power moments before it crashed into the bridge? Who else would have the exact coordinates of this ship? Who or what has access to power grids to manipulate its use? This was a test to see how conditioned humans actually are. We must question everything. We can no longer rely on our five senses to help us distinguish what is reality. We must rely on the sixth as well. That guy intuitive feeling that ignites us all to ask questions. Our bodies recognize truth before our minds. As humans we must lean into that more in this new era of AI. Our civilization is not safe. Question everything

Yes! I'm dumbfounded that there's no room for human error here. It's not IF a ship will hit a bridge pillar but WHEN. It's only a matter of time when you have ships passing under bridges and it should be expected that one will hit and therefore have a system in place to stop the bridge from collapsing like this. This is insane.

You just see all those blinking cars on the bridge slowly go down that is tragic
I think the harbour is blinking but not the cars. Still tragic.
those were people who evacuated the bridge, all but 6 vehicles were empty
How tragic- you can see the construction workers’ vehicles sliding off the bridge as it collapses. I just hope they didn’t realize what was happening.
These ships need stricter controls! How can such a large vessel lose power!? It seems completely in sane! My heart goes out to the victims and their families. I still hope for survivors!
How? By losing power from the engines. Like any other form of transport, they can break down. The fact all the lights went off a couple of minutes before the collision, it looks like they didn't lose their engines, but all electricity to the ship. It then came back on, but they would have been without engines power at that point as it takes a while to get all the systems back up and running. It would then just been at the mercy of the tide/wind etc My dad was 2nd engineer in the merchant navy and was in the engines room for their voyages. You'd be surprised what can go wrong on a ship. If you lose your engines in a storm/high seas, you're f****d!

With that much of the bridge collapsing, it's hard to believe they're only looking for 7 vehicles.
If it had happened during the day, there would have been many more vehicles involved 😕.
This captain has a history of running on other ships and bridges. That’s why they let him under traffic-free bridges only
It’s like 1am on a Tuesday, everyone is asleep
@holdfast453 if he has a history of it they shouldn't let him drive one at all.. and this is proof of that.
Personnel on the ship and radioed a Mayday that the ship had lost power and and they had completely lost control of it. Bridge workers were able to shut down traffic crossing the bridge so there weren’t that many cars on it when they ship hit it. Still a horrible tragedy.

There are two surviving parts of the bridge.

Yep. Physics is real.
Watch the 8x speed video of the "power outage" and subsequent drastic course correction directly into the bridge piling with black smoke billowing from the stacks. If you can find it.
The smoke was from the crew trying to restart the engines. Only enough power was produced to keep the lights going, but not the engines.

Why does it look like the bridge has small explosions at 0:04 top of the bridge to the left in the black smoke area
Powerlines shorting out and their shielding being burnt as a result
Power lines duh
Because there was one, power lines and wires will do that
that water is cold about 40 dig farinhight pray for thoes in the water.
How horrific 😭🙏💖🇦🇺
The water is freezing cold, the fall came suddenly from high above, debris on top & don't be fooled, in the real footage it took like two seconds for the ordeal to be over. I'm not holding my breath on too many survivors. They're already talking about recovery.
Holy spelling!!
@@jnfe Fair 'n' height! 😂
Pray for your spelling.
Those poor people... My condolences.
Prayers to those involved.
Can you imagine all the people who travel across that bridge to get to work? I would be looking hard right now for a campground spot on the work side.
Dude! I've seen controlled demolitions fell structures less slowly! That was crazy fast!
They say there were workers at Bridge 🤔🙏🏻
If people only knew what a major artery that bridge is. That will complicate lives for a lot of people who cross that bridge on a daily basis to get to work.
First thing I thought of as well. Oh my.
I don't live anywhere near it. I'm happy. 😊
Oh no what’ll we do 😢
That’s not as important as those on the bridge at the time.
@@Wh4L205 I fully understand that bud. But there are people unfamiliar with how people get around in that region of Maryland.
