Baltimore bridge disaster, here is what really happened. When the M/V Dali struck the Francis Scott Key bridge, in a dramatic turn of events, it immediately collapsed, destroying not only a key bridge but maiming or killing at least eight people. We will look at what happened based on what we know now.

The boat engine stopped THREE TIMES and had to be restarted??? When a car engine stops unexpectedly (and it's not out of gas), it's usually because rainwater found its way into the tank. What about this boat engine stopping?

This is a poor summary of this event. I was a USCG Marine Casualty Investigator & I am a graduate of the US Merchant Marine Academy where I earned a license as a 3rd mate and QMED for then Engine Room. There are numerous errors here, most minnor, but I will point out 3 key errors. 1. The emergency generator on the M/V Dali is very small and has the capacity to support minimal systems. There are a total of 4 generators on board the Dali. 2 Main Generators and 2 Auxillary Generators. There is 1 emergency generator. The event sequence was initiated with a loss of electrical power. This results in a loss of propulsion when fuel, lube oil & control air was lost to the main engine. 2. The anchor is not going to bring this vessel to a stop, at most it may slow it, but is more likely to create drag on the ship and perhaps shift the direction of travel and move the bow away from the south bridge support. 3. The large amount of black exhaust from the ships funnel is the result of main engines restarting after the first attempt to restore power. As a slow speed diesel engine starts, incomplete combustion is common and that is what you are seeing. It has nothing to do with astern propulsion. When there is astern propulsion applied on the prop, there is a paddle wheel effect that will pull the stern in the opposite direction that the prop is designed to turn. That inturn, will bring the bow to starboard where it did impact the bridge. I find most of the other errors, humerous, such as Radar radiating? Good visuals, thin on accurate facts. This was a good attempt, but the lack of understanding of the facts and the inability to understand the fundamentals of seamanship points to the fact that you might be a little outside of your wheel house.

No the port Authority should be held accountable! they failed to upgrade the bridge protection as the ships got bigger. Yes it had protection for the size of ship in use at the time it was built, but they done sweet FA as the ships got bigger and bigger. but give them their due, they did dredge the channel to get these larger ships under the bridge. they could have saved money by saying NO these sized ships are not allowed under the bridge because it is too shallow. but Come on Man! just think what $15 million dollars a day could make us. just think about the cut of that $15 million dollars the port was making from that in harbour fees, where did all that money go? one thing we know now! it didn't go on upgrading protection on the bridge! now look at how much that negligence is going to cost.

There isn't enough assets if they sold every ship the company owns, empty every bank account, sell any assets, and get the maximum out of the insurance coverage.

Beyond Facts is a very apt name for this channel. As a mariner for nearly 50 years I can say the random montage of utterly unrelated video clips, along with the nearly complete lack of understanding of ships and maneuvering, is truly embarrassing. What made this channel think they had anything useful to offer on a subject they clearly don't understand is a mystery. The cause of the loss of generator power is where the question lies, and will be the focus of the investigation. The behavior of a ship without power and control is what followed, and from initial reports it would appear that most of the actions on the bridge were as good as they could have been. However, the decision to order full reverse is unfortunately the reason for the sharp turn to starboard, as every ship handler knows a single screw backs to port and the bow falls to starboard.

@ 7:40 - first error, dropping the anchor(s) while absolutely one of the correct moves to take, will very rarely quickly stop any vessel of that size moving at 8 knots! That only happens in movie scenes not in real life. Those anchors are designed to hold a ship in place once it is fully stopped. Trying to use it as an emergency brake might work in very rare situations, but for the most part it is simply going to drag the anchor for 1 to 3 nautical miles before the ship stops fully. It might have helped pull the bound report had enough anchor chain been let out but that does not appear to be the case from the video. Your second error is saying that with a loss of power they could not have dropped the anchor. That is absolutely and completely incorrect. Having worked in shipping for many years, the chain lock and the brake on the anchor windlass are manually controlled - before a ship leaves the wharf any electronic or hydraulic automated systems clutches are disengaged so that specifically in a situation like this, the anchors can be dropped with no power available very quickly.

I still say dropping anchor was a good call by the crew, as if the rudder was unresponsive and momentum kept the ship moving forward, there was little else to do than hope dropping anchor would at least slow the ship down enough to potentially avoid disaster. I mean yeah it didn't work but still better than doing nothing. When you have something that big moving at that speed, any attempt to halt the ship from colliding with something else is welcome.

There is good reason why they can announce that with confidence is that it is nearly impossible to ‘hack’ modern ships, even despite the fact she likely had a purely computer controlled engine room. Mostly this is because the automation computers are not on the internet. Even modern ones are still very simple and pretty much are only designed to take readings from the engine room, do math to them, and send signals to various control valves. What is infinitely more likely here is that some combination of factors (loss of cooling water, faulty sensors, clogged lube oil filter, etc.) caused a failure of the main generators and one of the most inopportune time possible. This resulted in a loss of propulsion and steering, and they were unable to regain sufficient control early enough to prevent the accident.

That was the engine exhaust of the main diesel engine. The ship was put into reverse as the pilot tried to stop the ship. In reverse the rudder loses control and the propeller has a siseways force that turned the ship into the bridge pylon. The main issue is that every ship needs to be guided by tugs until the bridge is passed by. There were no tugs.

Definitely on purpose, the more the MSM and "THEIR" Experts, try to distract us the more deeply we look at the actions of the ship in the last few minutes that they explain away as a ship out of control! Why does this ship suddenly give her engine full speed ahead, (the ship's engine is diesel not electrical, and already warm from running during the passage from the dock to just before the turn, they say (their experts say) the engine requires a start-up procedure which is why all the smoke during the turn! Bulldust! The diesel engine was already running, check the black Box that will prove it) the strong smoke exhaust coincided perfectly with the hard turn to Starboard and the engine smoke continued almost until impact on the target. the ship miraculously straightened the rudder up to prevent the turn from continuing and possibly missing a direct hit on the pier, the more extensive the explanation by their Experts? the less believable it is! The ship turned into the pier under full power, and the ship's diesel engine did not need any electricity to run? (how do you stop a diesel engine when there is no electricity? you can manually stop the flow of fuel to the engine!) gosh, who knew! not the Experts, there is no evidence of dirty fuel either, if dirty fuel was a problem the engine exhaust smoke would give intermittently visible puffs of smoke during the progress towards the bridge? no none of that, the engine was running just fine the ship was at low speed on course until the full speed turn into the bridge pier. killing 6 people their Families need to get a full and honest report of why they died, what's the point of having a Black Box that can mysteriously stop recording just before the turn? This is an evil intentional act. in my humble opinion.

So much misinformation on this video I would ignore most of it. For example they know the speed of the vessel thanks to AIS and you don’t need power to drop the anchor, unless it has been snubbed in which case you need to haul slightly on the chain to be able to release the snubber, but normally in the harbour environs the snubbers have been removed in case you have to drop the anchor in an emergency and all it takes is for someone to undo the brake

So much is wrong in this video. The bridge was almost never tide restricted: the bridge had a max air draft of 185 feet, Dali could easily go under at any time, and tides there are only a foot and a half anyway. It takes a few minutes to restart a marine diesel and even longer to stop the screw before it can go into reverse. Anchors don’t stop ships under way at 8.5 knots, they can only slow them down slightly and maybe pull it off its course.

I was in the Coast Guard & have seen it cause problems in one instance & have seen it used to good effect in maneuvering a single-screw Cutter in a tight space on another occasion. & yes, dropping an anchor in mud wouldn't stop that ship in less than some hundreds of yards at any speed that allows steering...

Why the hard turn to Starboard? All wind and current issues were coming from the Port side, and the Autopilot or Harbour Pilot were adjusting for the wind and current variations that affected the ship's course. the mayday call had been sent and still, the ship continued on the course because the rudder was still working, they had dropped the Port anchor but didn't let out enough chain as shown after the crash the chain is hanging down meaning that it had not been dragging on the bottom. so the Anchor would not interfere with the course change into the Bridge Pier. My understanding of modern-day ships, a ship loses power to the propeller, the ship will continue on the course it was on before the loss of engine power, and the weight and momentum of such a heavy ship will never accidentally turn like the video shows. Remember the ship's electrical supply is from one of several Diesel Generators that the ship's electronic Autopilot controls to the Diesel motors controlling the Hydraulic rams to the Rudder and will keep working keeping the ship on the course set by the Harbour Pilot, remember that the ship was on course to pass under the bridge when the lights were turned off, without electric power to the Autopilot the rudder will remain on the set course while it was adjusting course for any wind or current variations, then when the lights (electric power) came on again the ship auto-pilot would automatically resume the original course settings before the power loss, But! The video showing the sharp turn onto the target had nothing to do with the lights, or Autopilot or wind or currants proving that The HUMAN FINGERPRINT is all over this deliberate turn into the Bridge. Heavy smoke from the engine funnel is caused by a sudden increase in fuel to the engine, providing strong water pushed onto the now hard-turned-to Starboard rudder, then again the ship rudder was adjusted to Port to stop the turn because the ship needed to make a direct hit not a glancing blow against the target. This was intentional closure of Americas 5th biggest port! No question about that! But was it the US Government extremists or their FBI, or CIA! Did Terrorists sneak on board and overpower the crew? Was it blackmail of the Harbour Pilots and captains and engineers, no matter why? It is “who are they” that must be discovered because 6 people are dead because of this deliberate act by some of the People on this ship!!!!!!!

As a harbor pilot, what did the pilot do correct and what did he do that you would not have done? Just asking. How long were you a harbor pilot, and how long did it take you to be a harbor pilot, and where? Just asking for information, because I am interested. Not to lay blame. I was taught that if I didn't know, ask someone who does.

@@mt3311even as a pilot it’s very difficult to say given so many facts aren’t yet known. The best analogy I can give is imagine being in a canoe paddling down river and you lose the paddle….. you can no longer use any power or steer, you’ll go were the current takes you. On the known facts, I’d applaud the pilot and ship crew for doing everything they could under the circumstances to stop this happening. The quick mayday call saved many lives.

Why does this ship suddenly give her engine full speed ahead, (the ship's engine is diesel not electrical, and already warm from running during the passage from the dock to just before the turn, they say (their experts say) the engine requires a start-up procedure which is why all the smoke during the turn! Bulldust! The diesel engine was already running, check the black Box that will prove it) the strong smoke exhaust coincided perfectly with the hard turn to Starboard and the engine smoke continued almost until impact on the target. the ship miraculously straightened the rudder up to prevent the turn from continuing and possibly missing a direct hit on the pier, the more extensive the explanation by their Experts? the less believable it is! The ship turned into the pier under full power, and the ship's diesel engine did not need any electricity to run? (how do you stop a diesel engine when there is no electricity? you can manually stop the flow of fuel to the engine!) gosh, who knew! not the Experts, there is no evidence of dirty fuel either, if dirty fuel was a problem the engine exhaust smoke would give intermittently visible puffs of smoke during the progress towards the bridge? no none of that, the engine was running just fine the ship was at low speed on course until the full speed turn into the bridge pier. killing 6 people their Families need to get a full and honest report of why they died, what's the point of having a Black Box that can mysteriously stop recording just before the turn?

You think? I think you should take a look closer to home, say like the port owners and the port Authority. they are responsible for the safe navigation of the port. they failed in there duty. Ships have got bigger over the years, the protection of the bridge might have met regulations when it first was built. But the owners and port Authority failed to keep up with the times and to upgrade the protection for the bridge, thus using your words it was there carelessness that help with this accident. did no one ask the question, what would happen if one of these super heavies were to hit this important bridge? Not it was just greed for the green back, once they knew that they would have to dredge the channel and that these super heavies could only sail at certain times, they knew the bridge could be hit, but that didn't stop then saying No the ships can not go pass the bridge. they knew building a new dock downstream would cost billions, compared to building new protection for the bridge which would have cost less, but doing that would be dead money, but not no more, now it is going to cost an arm and a leg to rebuild the bridge, but that is American short sightedness for you, make as much money over the shortest period of time. Well that's worked out until now, but not only have you lost the bridge but also the $15 million a day the port was bringing in, not including the loss of traffic on the bridge. so tell me who were the careless ones again?

Simple. The smoke is from the smoke stack from the ship. When power came back on the Captain attempted to restart the engine. When u start a diesel engine on a ship the initial start creates a billow of smoke from the smoke stack. Unfortunately the ship lost power again causing the engine to fail again. The captain then dropped the port side bow anchor but too little too late. The ship was victim to the wind from the port side and the river current as the rudder and engine were dead. Now was it a cyber attack that shut.down the power? Possible. But don't think it was the captain or port pilot.

This video has so many blanked out spots on it, it becomes a waste of time watching. The narrator says that these are their 'theories'. Well none of that explains WHY the pilot ordered the tugboats back to port BEFORE the Dali had even cleared harbour. It also does not explain that, while there are DOZENS of cameras dotted around the harbour (and that fact was from an engineer who works there), we only have footage being published for ONE SINGLE Camera.....far enough away and front on, that you really can't see the explosion on the pylon seconds BEFORE the ship hits it. When the NTSB did their inspection with videos and cameras immediately following this situation, there was not one bit of soot or smoke damage on the front damaged part of the ship, AT ALL. Now according to that video footage from the harbour camera, there was a massive explosion on the pylon ......and any fool knows that when and where there's an explosion, there is soot and burn damage. WHERE is it? Something else I would like to know is, since this bridge was built in 1977, did they not KNOW there was such a thing as 'tides'? So why did they not build the bridge high enough to allow for ships to go underneath at full tide? Sorry mate, but there are way more LOGICAL questions than the poorly put together THEORIES (not facts) in this video.

At best, the manuveur would counter any starboard movement of the vessel and hopefully shift it slightly port again as it drug along the floor. It is not stopping it at all. One of many things I can't quite understand given these facts.

@@stephenludlum9746 Well yes there wasn't much dropping anchor was going to do, but I still think it was the right call considering how fast this all happened. Like, even if they had emergency steering and the like and even attempted it, the ship's momentum was too big to do much of anything. Every little bit helps in a situation like this. Currently, my theory is that I think they dropped anchor as an extra way to steer the ship away from a direct head on collision with the bridge, and it seemed to have (mostly) worked, but still the ship was just too far to the right for it to have more effect. Also even some slowdown of a ship like this is a good idea especially if it's carrying hazardous materials, any higher speeds could have made this far worse as if the collision hit the wrong way it could have ignited the cargo. I mean, imagine if those hazardous materials ignited and exploded? Yeah, the bridge would be the least of your worries.

My 2 cents on black smoke: They restarted engine..they put engine Full Astern, engine overspeed and shut everything down. The big question is-why aren't tugs escorting very large vessels for bridges and sand bars transits.

Because they have pilots board the ship that know the topographical layout of the waterways like the back of their hand.

If thats true then the pilot was dead wrong, the actual video shows him speeding right at the support pillar, he must be held accountable.

Shipment person responsible for this accident as well as pay for peoples who were on bride to pay them good compensation and help to build to bridge a lot more stronger. 1- also under the bride only 2 or 3 places make a more wider so ship can pass easily. That area has to paint glowing yellow lights around it so ship 🚢 knows only that one they can use. Enter right exit left so no accidents. Exit only one side wider just like road with signs on the bridge.

Maybe should have added a circle of large cement pilings around the bridge supports. When it was built, there were probably not ships this size passing through there.

I thought the spark and smoke on the top rail of the bridge was the electric line snapped that supplied lights on the bridge, it sparked and flashed when the bridge fell.

To simplify this accident. This ship is 984-ft long, and 157ft-wide according to some of the information out there the draught is 49ft. In this video says 36ft. and the depth of the key bridge water 50ft in the middle of canal. Normally a for big ship water depth should be 70-100. This is a 95 ton ship without any load. Now it can carry more than 116,000 lbs.I don’t know the total capacity at time of accident. The ship lost power and drifted into one. column/ Pillar /post. Don’t know if it was intentionally. As we know it’s an accident Unfortunately lives were lost but. That’s accidents. you never know when it will happen because it happens in seconds. There lot more to this accident that we don’t know about. Reason for comment: I personally have driven over this bridge in a 10 year period. this bridge is very unstable very wavy on the road way. And shaky. To me in my opinion, I’m driving a 4,700 truck at that point in time. It’s been there maybe 30-40 years I don’t know the history. On that bridge I always hated driving on that key bridge. I’ve drove through both tunnels. It’s not as bad, but I’m like what happens if the tunnel starts to flood. Because the walls are (tiled) and you will see tiles missing all over the walls. That tell me moisture is building up on the walls. There lots of exit door. Hopefully this never happens. This tunnel run underneath the water about 2 miles long. 2 lanes traffic. But now they will make the bridge better and stronger. Hopefully

As a lay person, it seems to me that the major question to be answered is why the sequence of power losses? Someone suggested that the type of fuel was being changed from the low sulfur type required to enter the port to the less expensive, high sulfur type that would be used at sea. Did the change of fuel cause interruptions in the delivery of fuel by the fuel pumps to the engine? Was this the first time such a change was attemped while underway?

Actually such exchanges are very common on ships, it's a practice that's been going on for decades. Still the chances of something going wrong with the interchange is still a possibility, something as simple as a clogged nozzle can lead to catastrophe. I mean that happens with airplanes so why not boats? Yes the chances are very low, but that's why they are always so surprising.

Having worked in a few shipyards on the West Coast, I have witnessed the deplorable state of maintenance and general upkeep of merchant vessels! Owners don't like spending money. USCG inspection items are often ignored and the convoluted maritime laws make it even more difficult to enforce accountability.
