WWL-TV link includes video

quote:

The video shows warning gates going down to stop traffic from driving across the Racine Street Bridge. The bridge was being opened to let boat traffic from the [July 4th] fireworks show pass through.

The woman rides through the open gap between the warning gates, almost crashing, before falling into the opening bridge gap.

After a short time bystanders got out of their cars and rushed to help the woman out of the opening.

The bridge operator was made aware of the incident and did not move the bridge span until everyone was off of the bridge, the Menasha Police Department said.

The woman was taken to a local hospital and treated primarily for facial injuries, police said.

she's lucky someone saw her otherwise I'm sure getting crushed by drawbridge would be a terrible way to die

though I wouldn't be surprised if she was drunk so she may not have ever known until it was too late

Doing a faceplant on a drawbridge = drugs.

Well that was better than the bs drowning video. At least this one was sort of funny. But you have to be incredibly stupid to do that, the kind of stupid where you're probably mentally challenged...then it's not so funny. Maybe she was drunk since it was night at a 4th July celebration. I will stick with laughing.
