Bridge collapse

Ditto, what a horror!

I watched the video and what struck me is it looks like the Lousieau family dropped that bridge. No, no consipracy theories here. But that entire middle section broke free at the same time. If one support broke, I could see a section tearing away and a corner falling off or cars driving off that corner. No, this was as if someone took all four corners and disconnected them at the same exact time, dropping the road section down. It looked too 'perfect' to me.

Very sad, prayers to all.

I don't think it was a conspiracy, but I noticed that also. We have demo'd many bridges in our work, you always have one end fall first and then the other end would have to be physically removed from the cap. Just like New said, this fell straight down like it was disconnected on both ends at the same time. Very interested in what the final determination will be.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all involved.
