you should know what to expect from this, so dont click if you dont want to see.
life and death are so fricking random, and fate is cruel beyond belief at times.

It’s not really that impactful in terms of carnage.

Notice the people on the walkway on the right side. Go sliding down to the ground like we used to do at recess.

Such a shitty thing to happen, but gives me hope seeing all these people get out of their vehicles so quickly.

quote:theres a video i saw but cant find now showing people run out of the surrounding buildings toward the bridge, seemingly to help. dozens of people, maybe over a hundred. its actually kind of inspiring. i truly believe that people are essentially good, that what Chaplin said here is true...

That school bus on the right. Could have been a lot worse.

Whoa. Did the guy on the crane boom survive? That is brutal
Posted on 3/17/18 at 12:48 pm to MastrShake
Look closely in the crane area...there was a guy on the roof of the walkway. If he survived, he's not feeling well

Crazy.
The bridge dropped so fast that dude was suspended in mid air for a second.

I still think it failed due to the precast strands in the top left corner.

A school bus just a few cars back, this could have been so much worse

Not sure what that means.
Are there cables running through hollow sections of concrete to reinforce it?

It's what happens when you give advantages to "minority owned" in contracts. That company is Cuban and has had issues before this.
Posted on 3/17/18 at 2:17 pm to MastrShake
Can't believe those guys weren't tied off!

Looks as if the crane had just placed something on top of the roof span, causing the floor span to snap due to the weight
