    Did anyone see where the ship hit the bridge in baltimore. The bridge just crumbled. What a disaster and tragedy. Were there many people on the bridge? Did something happen the ship to cause it to hit the bridge.

    Saw that. No idea how the ship managed to hit the bridge, think there are about 10 people missing.

    I would imagine people wouldn't last long in the water. Some probably in their cars. How did so much of the bridge crumble so quickly and not just the section that was hit?

    This according to reports, is one of the longest bridge of its type in the world. Looks like a central support was damaged and when that part of the bridge fell it dragged the rest down. It was an iron bridge. Had it been masonry it may have just collapsed the section that was hit.
    May have been lucky that it was in the early hours, otherwise it may have been worse.

    The ship lost power, it sent a mayday message to port authorities but it was too late.
    6 people still missing, they were part of a crew that were fixing potholes on the bridge at the time.
