Damn, that first video is nuts.

Would not want to be the container ship’s owner today. 

Yeah the Coast Guard, NTSB, FBI, etc are going to do a number on them.

PS I would stock up on some gasoline and or diesel if in that area just in case.....their major terminal operations are inside the area of the bridge 

The 30K vehicles that rely on the bridge daily are fucked.

Jesus, that's insane. Nightmare fuel. Prayers to everyone on the bridge. 

As someone who has a very serious fear of bridges, yeah. This is definitely one that is going to cause some nightmares.

In the video, it looks like the ship had a bunch of lights turn off for maybe 30 seconds or so about a minute before impact.

Almost like they lost power, then got it back.

Yep, looks like power issue.

Once a ship loses power, it’s at the mercy of the water and wind. Sad situation.

Your first sentence is almost completely true.

Not suggesting this was avoidable.

Damn, I watch that yt channel all the time, cool to watch the ships come in and out.  They usually train the camera on the port during the day, lucky to have it facing the bridge last night.  Rewind about 7 hours and you can watch the whole thing unfold, sickening how slowly it happens.  Prayers to all the workers on that bridge..

As someone that drives over the Crescent City connection bridge quite a bit, these kinds of scenarios pop up in my mind. This will not help that at all. Prayers for those victims and their families.
