A Mexican Navy Ship Hit the Brooklyn Bridge
A Mexican Navy ship hit the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday, killing two crewmembers and injuring over 20 others, half of them critically.
A bunch of tourists were watching from shore, so there's multiple angles of it. Crewmembers were standing on the masts when it happened and were left dangling when the masts snapped.
Officials said the ship was never supposed to go under the bridge. It lost power and drifted down the East River in the wrong direction.
277 crewmembers were on board. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said yesterday that the two people who died were a sailor and a 20-year-old cadet.
It immediately brought back memories of the crash that destroyed the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore a year ago, killing six construction workers. The container ship in that one was much bigger though. This one was an old-school sailboat. It was built in 1982 but in the style of ships from the 1930s.
Officials said the underside of the Brooklyn Bridge got banged up, but none of the damages are structural. They're still looking into exactly what led to the crash.
Some idiot in Miami was caught on video knocking a waiter's tray out of his hand, just to be a jerk.
