Dunno if anyone was curious about this and hadn’t seen any comments/questions. Anyone who is curious about the open top orange (red?) boxes on the roadway with all the small almost round looking objects scattered around in the pavement, here’s what they are. The boxes (obviously) held the scattered objects and are usually stowed in the bow, amidship, and stern areas. They are called knuckle boxes. They hold knuckles which are the roundish looking objects scattered around. Knuckles are placed into the bottom corner post holes at all 4 corners of each container. They lock into the top corner posts of the container below it (or The deck for the bottom container) thereby locking the whole stack together. The knuckle boxes are offloaded at every discharge terminal and as the container comes off, longshoremen remove the knuckles and throw them into the knuckle box. Before a container is loaded the longshoremen place the knuckles into the corner post. The boxes are labeled with the ship name because they are assigned to the specific ship. All the trivial info you probably never really cared about and regret the time you wasted reading this!

Jeff, as you face forward on a vessel, port is to your left, and starboard is to your right. So when you're facing the ship from out in front of the bow, it's reversed, with port on your right and starboard on your left. This is so that no matter which way you're facing on a vessel, you can always specify the side without the confusion of "Left" and "Right"

@@billrehm3590 luckily my commute to and from work is no longer in that direction. I used to take one of the tunnels and would use the bridge as a back up for tunnel closures or bad traffic.

My oldest son drives hazmat vehicles and his commute time is hugely affected but he’s on the clock so it’s he deals with it. But his company probably isn’t happy with the loss of productive work hours. Locally, it is DEFINITELY felt.

It’s astounding seeing the vastness of the bridge sitting on the ship. I never imagined that i’d be seeing images of the actual roadway of a bridge that I had driven over. Get such a sinking feeling seeing it like that. It’s still unbelievable that this happened.

You will be amazed when they finally put properly positioned "Shape Charges " on the remaining portion of the 5K tons of bridge . They will take a wedge out of it and pull the remainder off the deck with the top rails of the bridge and with a delayed charge cut it into manageable pieces as it jumps deck.

@@jimnalgrin3515 That's bad rigging. There should be a box of sand wrapped around every large charge to keep that from happening. Cutting charges shouldn't be big enough to make the pieces they're cutting it into go very far. They want it all to drop straight down or tip over predictably. The safety zone for this will be 99% water and the rest will be really easy to clear in any case. That part of demolition is SOP no matter the situation. See @TheLoizeauxGroupLLC channel for tons of examples of how to do it right.

Thank you Jeff for posting these incredible pictures and video clips. For those of us who traversed this bridge daily, it’s bittersweet to see the quite large bridge looking so mangled. Obviously the loss of life is the worst part of everything. Many memories of people roaring past on the two lanes each way bridge. To see those dividers still standing was surreal.

@10:06 - That shot...that is how you pre-weaken a truss for placing of the copper-coated shaped charges. Anyone who has watched demolition recognizes this. The charges are strapped on the inside and outside of the outer portion of the beam leaving a clean cut and ample separation room.
