It's so weird to go watch these and see Grady from practical engineering.

Those colour photos of the West gate under construction are images I’ve never seen before. That alone makes this video well worth watching.

Traveled the West Gate Bridge many times in my hometown. My dad used to be a tour coach driver and would always remind any people on the journeys of the collapse as they approached the actual span that collapsed on the very tall bridge!

[@christhorney]

my grandpa was a crane operator on the westgate bridge, it was the largest crane in the southern hemisphere at the time. he was supposed to be working when the bridge fell but he had swapped some shifts with his work mate because his work mate had some family stuff on, and the guy died in the fall. 3 months later after pulling all his mates out of the water and staying on the job without a break, my grandpa had his first of 3 heart attacks that he had during his life. he was only in his 40s when he was building that bridge

The Latchford bridge is an arch, but it rests on abutments that take the lateral load, rather than using a roadway under tension to "tie" it together.

My grandfather took me to the Westgate bridge many times after it collapsed, before it was rebuilt. He knew some of the 35, he would go there to remember them.

Melbourne has lovely people. But a crappy beach! But, such a cosmopolitan city. I love visiting this city when in Australia. Visitors to Australia generally want to go to Sydney, but, Melbourne is better if you can spend time with the locals. If you're just a tourist, then go to Sydney on your package tour. If you're a traveler then go to Melbourne & get invited to at least one party, which will be a blast.

Hydraulic Fracturing (fracking)is used in most gas fields and some oil fields. It has been known that wastewater injection wells can cause earthquakes for a long time, but the earlier wells were for sewage disposal and few in number. So, the effect was noted, but it was not thought to be a problem. Some of them were eventually used for fracking water disposal until the Pawnee earthquake happened and changed everything.

Well done , just enough information

[@elainelott9644]

Very interesting video !!! The engineering marvels are very amazing !!! I learned a lot !!!

[@Emily_M81]

I got to see the Corvette Museum before this happened :(

[@skbthoughtslearneveryday5579]

I would like to know what's the dia of those steel hangers & bolts in arch bridge

[@patmcbride9853]

Came to see the bridge collapse, saw car garage collapse.

[@bjgarbacz1]

Grady what!?! What's up dude! Lol

[@Bobrogers99]

Because each bridge is unique, perhaps it takes a failure or collapse to show what parts need to be inspected carefully. And then it's too late.

[@jeffcollins1097]

"I feel like I own this part of the road" - What a tool. lol

[@NjK601]

Wasn't that bridge on an earlier episode? For a different reason

[@walterwilliams4354]

They were just cars. NO big deal!

When I was growing up in Brooklyn, N.Y., I felt deprived because my father did not have a car. When I was mature, I realized we had something much better, subway. For 10 cents, I was able to ride from Brooklyn's Boro Park to the Bronx Zoo or Yankee Stadium comfortably, if not in rush-hours. Most cities of the US lacked such transportation, thanks to a General who became President of the United States to end the Korean War. He entered the White House in January of 1953. It took him until late in 1954 to reach a truce with Kim Il Sung. We never reached a peace treaty with N. Korea. All we have is the truce! We are fast to go to war, but on a slow train to reach a peace! Did God Bless Americans ?
