Going under the Key Bridge was one of the highlights of sailing out of Baltimore. I'm praying they find the missing workers still unaccounted for!

The water is 50 feet deep there. You would need a lot of boulders to pile up to at least another 25 feet above the surface to block the ship.

Quote: When the Francis Scott Key Bridge was built between 1972 and 1977 the average container ship carried between 500-800 twenty-foot shipping containers - known as TEUs in the shipping business. But advances in engineering allowed ships to balloon to an average of 4,000 TEUs by 1985. Since then, carriers have continuously scaled up capacity, and Dali, manufactured in 2015, had a capacity of 10,000 TEUs. According to bridge experts, no bridge pylon could survive being hit by a vessel of this size. The continuous growth has pitted ports against each other to attract bigger vessels. The expansion of the Panama Canal in 2016 upped the stakes, with ports along the East Coast racing to dredge their harbors to accommodate the larger ships now traveling through the canal. The Port of Baltimore expanded to accommodate supersized ships in 2013. Since, it has grown into the 9th-busiest port for receiving foreign cargo. Aging bridges.

Possibly emergency lighting to liferaft and lifeboat embarkation stations. 02:33 Signs of dense smoke emitting from the funnel, possibly indicating a main engine firing up from idle or being given a high revolution input on the engine telegraph (e.g. "Full Astern" to carry out a "crash stop" manoeuvre). 02:40 Further illumination of the forecastle deck. 02:46 A visible change in aspect of the vessel (relative to the camera) is becoming apparent, indicating that she is no longer maintaining a steady course through the dredged and buoyed narrow channel, and there is an increasing rate of turn to starboard. 03:00 The dense black smoke from the funnel now very clear and persistent. Appears to indicate moderate winds on the vessels port side. 03:20 Turn to starboard now more-so apparent as we are now seeing more of her port bow. 03:28 Second blackout. Note that there is still light visible in the vicinity of the deck level access to the accommodation this time. This is possibly emergency lighting at lifeboat and liferaft embarkation stations. The navigation lights on the main mast, forward mast and starboard bow also appear visible during this second blackout. 04:01 Power to the forecastle area lighting is restored. 04:16 Both main masthead and forward masthead navigation lights are visible. Notice the aspect of the vessel has changed significantly to an almost head-on view where both masthead nav lights align. 05:35 Allision with bridge

I found my way to the livestream roughly an hour after the collision, so things were still quiet enough to easily scroll back up to see what the chat looked like at the moment of collision. The chat logs prior to the collision was only 5 messages from channel admins totally unrelated to the collision, so no one was actively watching it live and chatting abt it. Channel admins popped in to chat real fast though, which was interesting on its own, but they didnt say anything particularly notable. Didnt take any screenshots and obviously cant remember word for word what was said, but two admins were chatting in the immediate aftermath before the livestream got any attention. First message after the collision was an admin simply stating that a ship hit the bridge, potentially listing the time as well but I dont remember. Next few messages are a lot harder to recall but still just admins, most of whom were expressing shock and confusion, alongside dismay at the potential loss of life. For the next half hour 90% of the messages are from (presumably legit) journalists requesting if they can use the footage in news coverage. From there a slow trickle of random internet users arrive, most of whom being conspiracy theorists.

There wasn't time. I work on roads for a living. (not in Maryland) When you're out of the truck patching potholes, as that's what was reported the crews were doing, you're unable to hear the two-way radio (if their trucks had them) and often times phones are left in the truck. If they had their phones in their pockets, they're difficult to hear or feel vibrating when you're out working.

Why would an unescorted ship be allowed to approach infrastructure such as that bridge? Why aren't tugboat escorts mandatory? Didn't anyone realize that bridges can be knocked down, so that both surface traffic and shipping could be stopped? Is there no thought for security? Are all of our ports so open to either accidental or intentional attacks? What preparation has Homeland Security planned for such potential since 9/11/2001? And it's right there in their backyard!

Just because power is back on doesn't mean that they have full restart and control of machinery yet. Also steering may have been very limited at that speed. These things don't turn easily. Also it seems that they tried to go full astern to reduce impact speed. Captain will also be taking advice from engineers and the port pilot. Unless you're on the bridge in that situation it's hard to know the why and why not answers.

@@user-mp4pn3rl4m They where pretty much in the center iirc (there are lanes for shipping so they probably adhered to it), it just turned at the wrong place and wrong time. They where doing just above 8knts which means they had enough waterflow over their rudder to steer. Of course it will be investigated as basically every maritime incident does. It's just the case that currently we don't posses all the information (the public at least) but we got enough to get a decent picture. Could be wrong but it's a good guess I would say.

For an emergency anchor drop at speed on a ship this size to work a few things need to happen: 1. Without power you need crew in place to physically deploy the anchor which is life threatening given the size and weight. 2. The anchor needs to hit a good place at the bottom where it won't skip. On a ship this size your talking about momentum orders of magnitude more than a 747 in flight. No matter how big or heavy the anchor is it's likely to just pull up any ground or bedrock it makes contact with (likely what happened here.) If it's mud it'll pull up. If it's rock it'll either not catch or dig in and then rip it up. Think of this like you running and dropping a fishing line with a hook at the end of it and expecting it to stop you in your tracks if and when the fishing hook digs into the ground. 3. Even if the anchor catches, are you far enough away from the object you're trying to avoid? If the anchor catches at speed it's likely to shred the metal around it's casing and then the 1000' ship with probably at least 300' of anchor chain is pivoting around that axis. The back of the ship could still hit the obstacle you're trying to avoid once it pivots around the chain

And, for all we know, they might have been illegals who didn't understand or hear any radio commands to get their a$$es off the Bridge. Or they have gotten so sick and tired of having to clear off the roadway because they were in the middle of a job and wanted to get it over with ASAP....I too find it strange they weren't radioed to physically run off the bridge or hop in their cars and just LEAVE as soon as they heard the "MayDay" warning....

Listen to the audio of the first responders. They got the traffic stopped at the north end first, and two police units headed for the south end, and then there was the following exchange [transcription by the NY Times]. Times are from when the first alert went out (1:27:53 EDT) 0:32 DISPATCHER: Is there a crew working on the bridge right now? 0:36 OFFICER approaching south end: [inaudible] 0:42 DISPATCHER: Got it. 0:44 OFFICER: Want me to stop traffic along this side right now? 0:49 DISPATCHER: Yeah if we could stop traffic, just make sure no one’s on the bridge right now. I’m not sure where there’s a crew up there. You might want to notify whoever the foreman is, see if we could get them off the bridge temporarily. 1:06 OFFICER: 10-4, once the other unit gets here I’ll ride up on the bridge. I have all inner loop traffic stopped at this time. 1:24 OFFICER [to other southbound unit]: Once you get here, I’ll go grab the workers on the Key Bridge and then stop the outer loop. 1:34 [ship strikes bridge] It is very likely that the construction crew could not see the ship approaching. Their worksite was lighted, and there were lights on the bridge, but none in the river and few on the ship, so they wouldn't have been able to see much if anything beyond the bright area they were in.

Ship is big. Alot of mass. Only a single propeller. Big turning circle. Takes a long time for an emergency stop. Ship lost power and was out of control. Big span is rather small and tight for a big container ship to navigate through. A dangerous hazard. 1970s? Construction. Lightframe to create the span. But it's supports have no chance against large ships like containers. Its not surprising that it collapsed. Potentially it's modular Construction might be an advantage. The rest of the bridge either side still stands. The major question is, does Baltimore have a tug fleet? Or have they been scrapped to save money? & Whilst concrete structures in front of the supports wouldn't stop the Ship. They might deflect it enough to reduce damage. I don't know whether other bridges in America or in Europe. Have more substantial protection in place? Potentially some neglect could be tugs and bridge protection structures. But this is not surprising. Big Ships can cause all sorts of damage to other structures during other port accidents.
