    The horn was for the people on the ship and nearby. The camera people were way out of the danger zone, so the horn was apparently not loud enough to reach them.

    @@gregggoldstein3449How did you come up with this conclusion? 😂. Yes that is exactly what happened. They done hired some clumsy ass demolition workers, probably the whole crew’s first demolition as well, to come figure this out and set up some big and dangerous explosions. Apparently a set up with cords just hanging loosely down and other cords just a mess on the floor where one could possibly trip over. Why the crew would be walking back and forth and stepping on the wires and cords at this point in the mission is anyone’s guess really 🤦🏻‍♂️😂.

    A competent reporter should obtain the design from the Maryland Department of Transportation for the "dolphins" which are those round concrete things which are supposed to protect the bridge piers from vessel strikes. They are too far away and should be slightly into the channel. The ship shouldn't have been able to reach the pier. There should have been more. There is both a mechanical engineering - the ship's power and a civil engineering failure - the collision dolphins here.

    Since they have to make sure everything is out of the water before the ship can move away plus the rest of the bridge has to go, and do redesigns of the bridge. I'm guessing the new bridge won't be done until 2035 (depending on the design, how far, how tall, and how much stuff they need)

    Wonder if rebuilding this bridge will see any new innovations to prevent lives being taken in the future? Perhaps the peirs holding the weight of the bridge protected by an impenatratable barrier to prevent collaps, or possibly skips placed between sections to prevent the dominoe effect from pulling down more than one section , preventing so much unsustainable damage from happening ever again to a future bridge design rebuild. And an emergency channel created to by pass this area if ever needed to divert traffic to another shipping channel to prevent shipping delays.

    Revelation 3:1-6 1 AND UNTO THE ANGEL of the church in Sardis write; These things saith HE that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know THY WORKS, THAT THOU HAST A NAME THAT THOU LIVEST, AND ART DEAD. 2 BE WATCHFUL, AND STRENGTHEN THE THINGS WHICH REMAIN, THAT ARE READY TO DIE: FOR I HAVE NOT FOUND THY WORKS PERFECT BEFORE GOD. 3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, AND HOLD FAST, AND REPENT. IF THEREFORE THOU SHALT NOT WATCH, I WILL COME ON THEE AS A THIEF, AND THOU SHALT NOT KNOW WHAT HOUR I WILL COME UPON THEE. 4 Thou hast A FEW NAMES even in Sardis which HAVE NOT DEFILED THIER GARMENTS; AND THEY SHALL WALK WITH ME IN WHITE: FOR THEY ARE WORTHY. 5 He that OVERCOMETH, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I WILL NOT BLOT OUT HIS NAME OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, BUT I WILL CONFESS HIS NAME BEFORE MY FATHER, AND BEFORE HIS ANGELS. 6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
