I heard that one of the janitors on the boat smoked a joint a couple years ago so it was probably him that caused it.

I just don’t know why we let boats near bridges jn the first place. Why didn’t the boat just go around it?

the guy who built the bridge must feel pretty embarrassed that a boat could destroy it with such ease. i bet he texts his other bridges every day to make sure they're ok

They should build a bridge for the boat so it can go over the bridge without hitting it. Science!

back in the day you could gently caress a bridge for 99 cents. now you're lucky if you find one under $50, and when you do the goddamn thing collapses. no, no. i'm an isthmus man now.

It's inflation. Around here you are lucky to get a handy from a two lane country bridge for $50. It's a least 4 figures to go down on a fancy city bridge with huge spans.

SCIENCE



According to a local on Reddit, they recovered the last body yesterday and are ahead of schedule on progress.

https://www.reddit.com/r/OnPatrolLive/s/sNT4fjA1fL

quote:

Key Bridge Update

Not 100% show-related but y’all have been so kind about this situation that I wanted to share some updates that may not have made it out of the local news.

Five weeks after the collapse, the last body was found earlier today (5/7/2024). 6/6, they’re all coming home.

The first container ship made it back to the port earlier this week. This is the size of the ship that took the bridge out originally and the bread and butter of the port traffic. The original estimate was six weeks; we did it in five.

The Domino sugar ships have been coming in for two weeks (still cracking up at someone’s comment from the Live Feed a few weeks ago that it was a slow way to get a pizza…dude, I needed that laugh.)

We’re coming back slowly but steadily. People are getting back to work. The current estimate on a new bridge is 2028. We’ll probably get one in 2027. We like exceeding expectations around here. 💜

I'm actually really glad they were able to get all the bodies, so the families can put them to rest. You don't know it until you lose someone important, that knowing where their body is/how it's being treated in death becomes a huge comfort to you.

I dunno how big a safety perimeter gets done for building implosions, but the Dali is almost a 1000 ft long, so telling the crew "Stay at the stern and inside" should be sufficient, right?

Yeah I wanted to joke about there not being any bridge blood in the news coverage but people died so.

Sure. Demolition explosives are very small and controlled, and exploding a steel frame means there won't be a lot of small debris. You won't have random bricks or chunks of concrete flying out like in a building.

I have a scrap of memory from something on tv, mythbusters or something, that minimum safe distance for buildings was twice (?) the height of the building. The bridge wasn't 500' tall even when it was standing.
