#Baltimore #Bridge #Crane
I think there’s a bigger one up in New York
Because the victims were Salvadorian and from other countries they focus on recoverying debri and recontruction , had it been white and blks victims they would be outrage calling for investigation and the captains head and focus solely on the bodies being recover.
One misdirected ship takes out a prominent crucial bridge,,,but its perfectly understandable 🤷😳🤷
Yeah, when 330 million pounds traveling at probably ~15mph makes contact with a structure, it’s likely going to collapse. I’m not sure this equation works here, but if it were a projectile, it would hit with 2,309,999,999,994lbs of force. Understand now? Or are you being misguided on purpose?
2.3 trillion lbs of force to be concise.
Must be hard for a pea brain
And the moon is made of cheese
@@Harper2.0 well you are DEFINITELY MISGUIDED!!lolllolllol
@@donnapierson1636 🤦
Can anybody tell a naive Canadian why workers from a foreign country are working at on a bridge in Baltimore?
They still haven’t recovered 4 of the bodies. They said the water was too murky… with all this activity to move debris I think that means it’ll take much longer for their bodies to be recovered. Such an unfortunate situation. Also, our government is a joke. Saying they’ll give 60 million dollars when it’ll possibly cost billions? Yet we’re throwing billions of dollars to Ukraine and Israel? How about HELP AMERICANS!?
So how much money did the government provide to Maui ?? Oh that’s right. Nothing
Its not Giant..
Translation: The Mexican Dude that is Missing, Worked in America and sent Money to Ma and Pa in Mexico. Hence When he retired from his Job in America he would return to Mexico and Live Like a King. Wake up Murica. I have the same thing at my Job.
To the poor?????????????? We are all dumb why?
More of man’s incompetence……
Build Back Better
1000 tons pound????😂😂😂lol, you americans cant even measure😂😂
Be safe and may God watch over you all 🙏
Why is every single Democrat city a dumpster fire?!?
It’s amazing how small the steel pieces of that bridge look next to that huge ship
Sending prayers
And they call a Tonka toy a giant crane. SMH. That is not a giant crane, and is like taking a thimble of water to a house fire. Who do we think we’re fooling here?
This is such a stunning blow to American economy. It is hard to imagine a worse accident.
Welcome to America this is what happens when you take Americans jobs. You rest in peace.
This makes you appreciate the Human workers, and Human Ingenuity that have built the machinery and developed the knowledge to handle such a massive task. I hope we understand and appreciate human workers before we hand it all over to robots and Artificial Intelligence.
I hope this wouldnt happen in my country, because local govt took 2 years to remove a truck that crashed in a house. 🙃
Will they be having the crew members disembark during this operation?
God be with you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
8000 jobs available for the illegal immigrants…
Are we sure this crane is giant? Those things are pretty big usually. It might be just a regular sized crane. I’m gonna need to see a certificate.
It was an inside job
I love how the government gives pennies for the bridge rebuild but trillions to you know where. 🙄

PRAISE G👑D🎉🀄🙏💜
HELLO “LESTER”👄💘💙⭐🏆♦️👍👌
THANK YOU 🥰🤗; HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT ” GOOD FRIDAY🀄” G👑D BLESS YOU & YR FAMILY
😘🥰😇
In JE❤US’ Name Amen 🙏🙇♂️🙇♀️
So sad and unfortunate 😢
They pledged 60 million to the project, but give Ukraine 200 billion
Show the crane.
It’s very easy to cause an accident. It happens that the most difficult thing is to eliminate its consequences.
Just pains me that the cargo driver was not skilled enough or paying attention and now so many people died.
They blew up a girder bridge across the Mississippi here some time back. Had it all cleaned up in a week.
Um, it’s a land crane on a barge…
I also like how Captain Obvious is telling us what we can see with our own eyes.
A 😮😮😮😮😮😮 bad and nasty😮😮😮😢😮😢 retired director from General Dynamics, previously worked in San Diego, probably more than 85 yrs old now, is abusing US Gov’s monitoring satellite to harass normal US civilians, inside USA & all over the world for his own entertainment & amusement.
These remote sensors of the monitoring satellites are capable of interpreting the words you’re thinking in your mind, may be, by air vibration or by scanning the brainwaves from your brain.
The Israeli IDF are using similar satellite technologies to spy on the Hamas leadership hiding deep inside the Gaza Tunnels. IDF once released footage of these videos in much degraded resolution.
This could also have been the way how our intelligence services obtained classified information on Xi Jinping’s missile deployment within China.
This retired General Dynamics director could have been the mastermind behind the plane crash killing the Secretary of Commerce Ronald Brown of the Clinton Administration, in the plane crash in 1996 in Croatia.
The United States as we learned and studied in American high school does not exist anymore; it has been destroyed.
United States have been dead. American citizens don’t have human rights.
This retired Director of General Dynamics is indeed a national disgrace of the United States.
If this America disgrace wants to harrass any American civilian, he just puts this American into our Gov. blacklist for monitoring, and he can harass this American civilian.
The ultimate financial responsibility should be on the shipping company and their insurance carrier. NOT the American public.
Let’s hope that real professionals will resolve this disaster, not HR-hired idiots complying with stupid rules created by leftist administration.
Never would i have thought that my Temu package would made it to the news before me 💀
They don’t even care about the innocent lives that were lost all you see is them talking about re opening the bridge!
Get some Mexicans to do it they built the bridge too
It can’t lift a thousand tons
They hide from people that it was an attack
So…why isn’t the shipping company and/or their insurance paying for this? Why are the taxpayers having to foot the bill for this at all?
This will go as well as bidens Afghanistan withdrawal.
white collar created it, blue collar gonna fix it
The team who put this together deserves a raise – they did an awesome job with this report.
their is no fix for what happened ..ship’s don’t hit bridges airplanes don’t crash and car’s don’t have automobile accidents …..till they do…..bummer man.
Back in the day people would just have taken care of it….local welders, metal workers construction workers, firefighters would have been climbing those beams without safety harnessess getring it done. They never needed “underwater drones” to build bridges or clean up messes in the past. Now-a-days theres so many laws and regulations and meetings this is going to take 10 times as long to recrify. Sad. Life was better when there was less bureaucracy and regulations….everything moves slower and is less efficient now. God bless those who are actually helping the situation. ❤
Biden paying the bill for them to destroy our bridge. How many more bridges are they going to destroy at our expense ? Biden letting them get away with the DELIBERATE ATTACK on the United States.
BLACK SMOKE TELLS THE STORY ! THEY WERE AT FULL THROTTLE !
Check it out Mr Biden . Their insurance company is liable to pay for the destruction of the bridge !
Expensive way to create jobs!
Media loves to use big word to make the story more interesting than it really is.
no problem, biden has 4bil lying around for ukraine that he doesn’t want to give them
$60m glad they said its a a drop in the bucket, exactly what went through my mind. Pretty sure the majority of Americans would rather get that area replaced than give another country billions. And im not agains helping others. But 60m?
This is a crane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfJLsm6bIIw
God punishment
One big nothing burger. You didn’t tell me anything new.
Hey Ukraine we’re gonna need the tax payers money back…
This must be why my packages are late
youre gonna need a bigger boat and crane
Muslim religion says there is a GOD and there isn’t and think they have power over women 😂
Guys, there are never any real accidents or coincidenses in this world. Everything is orchestrated with a specific purpose, both good and bad. This is not a physical universe, its a spiritual universe where everything is energy and mind. Everything that happens is to bring you back home to divine love. Your beliefs makes it real, but its all an illusion. Enjoy the show. Remember to buy popcorn and coke. 😃
It’s very commendable that they are removing all the wreckage keeping the sand totally free and clear of any hazards
I’m curious about the underwater visibility we haven’t seen any videos of that. It must be very dark even if it’s not that deep.
Okay we want to see why this happened. Just like with COVID we want to know.
I paid about 40% more for a newsed car because covid hit. Now I’m thinking I’m glad I didn’t wait for prices to go down as the prices of cars will probably go up again. Wait and see.
It’s her plague Covid by the god of this world the Mother Satan not the Father GOD 🤷🏼♂️
Мало је један мост сви да вам се поруше🤣
Black box missing the last 2 minutes before crash, cover up is underway…
One would think, after the Sunshine Skyway tragedy, this sort of accident would be preventable.
Can a woman have a baby or vitro fertilization without a man in the flesh who created man?
How do people have power and control of things GOD a spirit created man not by the Mother 😂
In Crane We Trust. xx
Giant crane? I watched the whole video, and have yet to see that giant crane? Where’s the Mammoet?
Typical media b.s. and poor research. The Chesapeake 1000 is a shear leg and it’s still enroute. It’s not even the largest crane on the east coast. The Left Coast Lifter has a maximum capacity of 1850 tons but it has also been out of service for over 5 years since the Tappan Zee Bridge project was completed.
Красота👍👍👍👍👍

Multi billion $ on what exactly?! Bridge construction?! Lol!!!
pockets
i should call heerema cranes
Rest in peace to the workers que pena que se murieron así
1:39 SUCH outright LIES….. I have cruised in & through, & under that exact SPOT, and anchored (closer to shore) in the Patapsco River & many other different areas and sections. We’ve cruised the river there & the Chesapeake Bay…… The water and the bottom of ANY parts of the river and bay ANYWHERE near there is DISGUSTING & NASTY….. It could NEVER…. In a BILLION years, EVER get, or be clean…. If you’re ANYWHERE near 15 nautical miles of that area, OR the Inner Harbor waters, the bottom of that river is a muck filled, black, muddy, garbage filled DISASTER cesspool from all the years of dumping, and ions of ships use. Just drop ⚓ anchor from YOUR boat ANYWHERE near shore or near there 🚤😭🤦♂🙏⚓🤬 Your anchor will come up with BLACK, DARK permanent INK, MUD substances, that will destroy your fiberglass boat, AND nearly soak into & melt your skin off 🤔🤷♂😟🤬 It is absolutely horrid & disgusting…… They’re so worried about climate change, use of fossil fuels, diesel ships, etc. etc. again, ANYWHERE near 15 nautical miles of that area, the bottom of every inch of the Patapsco River & anywhere NEAR there looks like the BOTTOM of anyone’s charcoal grill to the 10,000th power, BUT way worse…… & WET 😭😟🤬🤦♂🤬 For years, they charge extra to register our boats all kinds of additional fees for “Save the river & Chesapeake Bay” funds AND you have to PAY a toll to cross the Key bridge !!!🤬🤦♂😟😭🤷♂🤔🤬🤬🤦♂😟😭🤷♂🤔🤬🤬
This WHOLE operation will be NOTHING but another cover-up of Maryland’s democratic strong-hold shake-downs off & on citizens rights, AND out of control Washington DC spending. MORE, waterway kickbacks against insurance companies, some other company, citizens, fish & wildlife. There is something 100% NEFARIOUS orchestrated by many, many people & organizations AFOOT with this ENTIRE operation, and events. MILLIONS & MILLIONS of human lives, AND MORE $$ will be LOST here…. AGAIN……. STILL…… Those waterways could NEVER, NEVER, EVER be cleaned UNLESS the water was drained & sterilized by the SUN !!!! RIP to the victims……. We will NEVER know what caused OR happened surrounding this whole incident. NTSB is ANOTHER cover-up government organization. WHO’S WATCHING THEM 🤔🤷♂😟🤦♂ I can guarantee, SOMEONE is getting RICH & RICHER with this whole event 🤬🤬🤬 STARTING with members of our government. AGAIN RIP to the victims……. Taxpayers will foot the bill……UNTIL….. AS USUAL, Democrats will weaponize the government AGAIN, against the shipowners & insurance companies to cover-up for Maryland leadership mismanaging the bridge. WHERE ARE the DOLPHIN protective structures TO prevent ships from HITTING the concrete pillars THAT HOLD up the entire BRIDGE !!!!
Temporary amenesty in USA, Canada
Wow they didn’t care about Maui and New Palestine??? Sorry for the loss but this administration is a joke as usually..
@:21 Sounded like the twelve days of christmas
Is 10 tugs going to be enough? With 9 barges and 7 cranes won’t they need a few more tugboats out there to move those things around as needed?
deleted comments
The Shipping Company should rebuild the Bridge, They Destroyed it.
That bridge went down almost as fast as the US economy after Xiden took office.
Be sure to have the shipping company pay the bill not tax payers
Why don’t Baltamor get Farry to get people a cross the river something like NEW ORLEANSLA
The money goes to re-building the bridge is better than sending money to other countries for the sake of war😑😑
Stop stacking em 2 high
What is going on here in the US. Another cargo ship or barge crashes into a bridge in Oklahoma earlier today. Thankfully this bridge didn’t fall.
The super crane was photographed just south of Chesapeake Bay Bridge 25 hours after Key calamity — that indicates pre-preparation for / pre-planning of the calamity.
I hope they have crane operators and engineers that can calculate the effect of current and drag so that they don’t end up with cranes sitting on top of the wreckage.
Here’s the question that needs to be answered. How long was it known the boat was without power? As a port city Baltimore had to be tugboats docked near. Why weren’t they used to divert it from hitting the bridge, instead huge cranes to clean up after impact? Had that been done this wouldn’t even be a news story. Who dropped the ball?
OPEN CHANNEL AS FAST AS THEY CAN I NEED CORN AND SUGAR 😉
Send sleepwalker Joe to enjoy this spectacle.
What’s really mind boggling is that 50-85 million people died during World War II. It’s also mind-boggling that these types of errors were not planned for in the beginning. Hopefully more people start to ask the question, “What if____?” The answers to “ What if _____? Lead to preventative measures for the future. How so many monstrous ships have been allowed to navigate this portion of the body of water there without tugboats it beyond my comprehension. What about you?
No doubt the salvage company just donated to Biden’s campaign.
Synergy Group and Grace Oceans need to speak or show up ???? Why are yall not talking about the them
There are much larger marine lifting rigs that can lift entire ships. Also once it’s broken into sections more crews could be working simultaneously round the clock. The first stages would be slow however to avoid mistakes.
