Here's a longer clip, looks like the ship losses power and regains it right before the impact.

If you watch some other clips, it looks like the ship lost power twice. After it regains power the 2nd time, you can see the captain or whomever has control of the ship, pouring the power on.

Crazy shit. If the fall doesn't kill the folks, falling into all sorts of twisted metal certainly will.

that too. Read in an article, you have 1 - 3 hours to survive in that temp water before hypothermia sets in.

1 to 3 hours? That seems way longer than I would assume.

I used to operate main propulsion and the electric plant on my ship, during my time in the Navy. I believe you are correct that ship lost power. And when it did come back it appears that all the same lighting did not come back with it. Which tells me they only restored power partially.

It would be very difficult to restore everything in that short amount of time. I would assume they lost main propulsion as they would've lost all supporting auxiliaries . They would lose hydraulic steering as well. I believe that ship was just drifting.

oof.

When the mpls bridge collapsed, the one thing it had going for it was the low water level. save a few people, and a bus. But the drop.....another oof.

And who ever said it...yes, there are a lot of shitty bridges in this country.

The term used in MPLS was 'functionally deficient'

I imagine there's a decent chance your car would get pinned underneath the top half of the bridge that falls on top of you... terrifying.
