    May those who lost their lives in this terrible incident rest in peace 🕊️

    I love the way the Mayor nicely got that reporter together that asked about how long it would take to rebuild the bridge. "Listen, we shouldn't even be having that discussion right now. There are people in the water that we have to get out."
  • @lillieslux9714
    “We’re battling darkness “ such an understatement.
  • @MessOfThings
    Any other hour in a day and this would be much worse.
  • It is hard to believe a bridge that took five years to build crumbled so easily. Praying for everyone involved.
  • Try to remember their lives going to be lost not to joke about this very serious very sad praying
  • The crazy part is, like 4-5 cars crossed right before it hit. It almost looked like no one was on it when it got hit. I hope they find everyone quickly.
  • My heart goes out to those on the bridge, and please protect the first responders during their diving and search. May they find those folks❤
  • @lizzykayOT7
    Good Luck Baltimore, sending love to all the rescue workers out there.
  • @sabresfan1959
    This reminds me of the Tampa Sunshine Bridge collapse. It will take months to a year for the bridge to be rebuilt. I sincerely hope there were not a lot of people on the bridge at that hour.

    What a tragedy. The question is how did this happen? The captain of the ship needs to be held accountable.
  • This is just devastating…the way that bridge just collapsed is scary and worrisome!! I pray for everyone involved!!
  • To answer the reporters question. In Japan it would take 2 years...in the US 20 years. It took 6 years to add an HOV lane I-64 in Chesapeake VA.

    Who or what the hell falls into freezing cold water from a collapsed bridge, and then refuse help and goes home? Terminator
  • @clubsportr08
    Sometimes the reporters just ask the stupidest follow on questions after they've been told that search and recovery is the focus and they are asking about the boat and the pilot.

    The problem is that once a car is in the water the power windows fail in a few seconds as the electrical parts short in salt water. Cars should still have handles to roll windows down manually in such an emergency. Current car windows don’t shatter easily even when hit with a hammer.
  • This is so horrific, praying for all involved and hopefully all will be found alive and returned to their families. So very sad .
