Four men who were working on the Francis Scott Key Bridge when it collapsed are still missing. Divers have also located a pickup truck in the waters of Baltimore Harbor. Meanwhile, the NTSB will examine the recorders for insights into why the container ship lost power and couldn't turn before ramming into the bridge. With much of the ship traffic in Baltimore Harbor halted, thousands of jobs could be affected. NBC News' Tom Llamas and Tom Costello report.

    Why is the media focusing so much on the structural integrity of the bridge? Even if it was in absolute perfect condition it would not have been able to handle a crash of that scale. Bridges are not built to handle collisions of that size and speed.

    That 18 wheeler is so lucky. He missed it by literally seconds.

    This makes me cry every time. The unimaginable suffering these families are going through right now. It is absolutely heartbreaking. Thank you, brave responders.

    RIP to those that died. Sending love from Canada.
  • Closure is needed for those families waiting for their loved ones who are missing and found dead โค
  • @blackdiscompose
    Maybe the company of the ship should cover the funeral expenses, and have the families do it however they want. That would be the decent thing to do to show compassion to those families. Imagine the fear they must have felt..no words.

    Father, please keep these families of the injured and dead victims of this disaster in your loving arms. Our prayers with all those involved including the men on the ship.
  • @user-gz5vo4ju5e
    This is so sad prayers for the families of these people who were simply working
  • @user-sd5go4rr4i
    There are no more survivors. It was a horrific accident and I wish the families well. But anyone making it sound like there is a chance is cruel.

    That man that rode that bridge down 200โ€™ into the water, without injury, won lifeโ€™s lottery.

  • The construction workers or anyone crossing the bridge when it hit only knows that they were falling to their death when the bottom fell out and bridge collapsed. How terrifying, and only one man was rescued and found alive..? I pray for this lone survivor. I canโ€™t imagine what he or she is feeling at this moment. My condolences to the surviving families of these victims missing and or deceased. Simply devastating. The country if not the world are grieving with you. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

    I donโ€™t think I could ever cross the bridge again knowing it took a family member.

    Bridge collapses from being hit by a ship are rare but they do happen. On the 27 of February 2024, a empty cargo ship hit the bridge supports of the Lixinsha Bridge in southern China. The bridge collapsed and two vehicles fell into the water and three other vehicles landed on the ship. Five were killed and one crew member was injured. In the past, there have been bridge disasters. The Tasman Bridge in Australia was hit by a ship and the bridge fell on top of the ship killing seven crew members and five motorists died from dropping 150ft into the water below. The supports of the Bold Street Bridge in Sydney Australia, were not hit by a ship but by a train. As the train approached the bridge it became derailed and slammed into the bridge supports. The bridge collapsed on top of the train killing 83 people and injured more than 200 others.
