The guy is a structural engineer. Stop asking him about the ship.
-
Never let a toddler write your interview questions about a topic you haven't even bothered to self inquire about.
-
Engineer: "Looks like a ship mighta done it."
-
Can hear them now: "We've investigated OURSELVES and have concluded no wrong doing." Yea, you betcha!
-
i love how the engineer breaks it down to the level of the reporter: not a faulty bridge but a faulty ship
-
That cargo ship is super massive, a fully loaded ship can be well over 150,000 tons. No bridge new or old could withstand that force slamming into it.
-
That ship seemed to steer right for that main support.
-
This guy's voice is so relaxing. The bridge didn't have safety bollards, and the ship was having major electrical problems the night before because too many refrigerators.
-
Note for the reporter bridge supports are not designed to withstand hits from ships
-
Anyone else flabbergasted at the fact they made the reporter ask such a brain dead question and she asked it with such emotion lol
-
Wasn't a bridge collapse. It was a ship wreck. Come on AMERICA.
-
Nobody has addressed the main question: Assuming that the steering was gone/ineffective, why the hell did the captain not put the engines in reverse and drop anchor immediately?
-
I do not understand how an interview can offer so little real information and still garner 4,100 likes.
-
Why didn’t the bridge have island buffers around the pillars?
-
Have you ever noticed how there are concrete posts surrounding gas pumps? They protect the pumps from errant drivers. Having grown-up on the water, ever bridge I have seen have massive pilons surrounding the structural supports, to protect them from such events. Why does this bridge, that is so important in so many ways, have no structural protections?
-
Why haven't they addressed how the ship was steering away from the pillar and then corrected itself at the last minute to go directly into the pillar?
-
The ship's lights were NOT flickering. Flickering means shining unsteadily, fluctuating in brightness. The ship's lights went completely dark (off) instantaneously as a result of complete loss of electrical power for as-yet known reasons, and it happened twice.
-
It could have been much worse at another time of day.
-
Ship somehow managed to hit the right spot to cause entire structure to crash....
-
The lights did not "flicker" as stated, I've seen the video, there was a shipwide blackout, just as the ship veered off course & struck that pier perfectly. No port pilot could have steered that ship any better. Just as if it was a perfectly executed sabatoge job.
