There was a tornado not too far from where I live that destroyed an entire neighborhood including a house where the owner had just baked a cake. She put it on a cake stand to cool and then left to run some errands. When she got back, her entire house was gone, but that cake, the cake stand, and the cabinet she'd sat it on were still perfectly intact. That cone reminds me of that cake.

That did not go the way I expected it to. They left the low end of the girder intact, and it looks like that obstructed the detached pieces from falling farther away from the ship. Some pieces hit the bottom and slid down the hull. So they likely have more work to do to get the iron away from there to get Dali free.

Sal, I was watching the army corps of engineers general on the AP channel yesterday. They did flood the first two compartments with 10,000 tons of water. This is so the ship would not move because the bridge structure is estimated at 4,000 tons so they wanted Ensure that there was no movement when they blew the bridge

I don't know if it's a lack of resources, location, coordination, or ??? why it's taking so long.

I know of a few bridge disasters that took more lives, a few that took out larger Bridges, but nothing on the scale of a 2-mile roadway being dropped across every single channel for a major port. If they pull it off, they will have completely restored the channel access to the port within 60 days. And they had limited access long before that. Heck, the house that burned at the end of my street a year ago still hasn't been fixed by the contractors. I'm just surprised anything is done these days and anything less than a year.

Don't be so sure. Anything designed by humans can fail and at the worst time. Who was that, Murphy, who informed us long ago? I think all responsible parties should be looking for the next "opportunity" for a shipping disaster. In fact, the who ecosystem of shipping expects numerous disasters. The insurance system is built to spread the known risk.

Well, some years ago it was decided to use explosives to take out a dam just up river from Fredericksburg, VA. It was a concrete structure. It was to be removed both to "restore the river" and because the structure was "deteriorating." After the smoke cleared from the blast the bridge was still intact. The second time was the charm in this case.

I had to pause and go back to confirm what I’d seen- really gives you perspective to see 4 lanes of highway laying across the bow of a ship to realize how really massive modern container ships must be and how much business would normally be flowing through the port of Baltimore. Fascinating stuff and I’m learning tons from Sal and the other sources he recommends.

Hi Sal, I saw an interview with an Army spokesperson shortly after the detonation. He reported that additional water ballast had been added to the bow so that Dali would be less likely to move without the weight of the truss. He also stated that they wanted to remove the material that could be holding Dali so that she could be moved onto port and then remove the debris on the bow with equipment there. I don’t know the name of the Army person but it was on an interview on KZfaq. Earlier views from Capt. Andy showed that all the windows of the ship’s bridge were covered with plywood…easier than replacing lots of glass. Thank you for all of your coverages of marine content.

There is the other half of the beltway, plus two harbor tunnels that are still fully functional. The Key bridge was never meant to be a major road. It was only supposed to be an alternate route for hazardous materials that weren’t allowed through the tunnels. And that was even before they built the I-95 tunnel.

@@ktrimbach5771wrong. It is a major route for people like myself who live on one side of the bridge and work on the other side. My commute used to be18 miles and now it’s 24 miles, which isn’t a big change, but now it takes me an hour to get to work instead of 20 minutes. Think about an Amazon employee who lives in Curtis Bay and has to drive all the way up and over and then back down to the other side of the shore when they used to have a 5 mile trip. On top of that is now the increase of accidents that occur because of bumper to bumper traffic and those hazmat trucks now have to go all the way around the west side of 695 to get back to 95 when going the other way over the key bridge is a shorter distance back to 95.

The accident, the loss of life, the massive damage, and the effort to remove the bridge and clear the channel, bring to mind two somber events in our history: The terror attacks on 9/11, in New York and the D.C. area, and the attack on Pearl Harbor, in 1941. In both instances, the terrible scenes of death and destruction, and the importance of clearing up the wreckage, and finding the bodies of those who were killed. One remembers as well, the constant air raids on London during the war, and the resulting death and destruction. The London Fire Brigade faced these grim events on a daily basis. Hats off to all those who respond to such tragedies, wherever they occur, whether in time of peace or time of war.

Great report! US ACE knows how to blow things up. One of the biggest was the Birds Point Levee in MO, several years ago. If you haven't seen it, it's worth the search / watch. The mini-documentary by nearby KFVS TV is pretty good, for one... Hopefully the good progress in Baltimore will continue. 🙂

I live very close to the scene and that's exactly what we thought! I thought it might be muffled, but nope! Pretty impressive indeed.

Great movie reference. One of my favorite movies of all time. Of course, it features the prisoners whistling to the tune of the Colonel Bogey March. I’m sure they whistled it, instead of singing it, because the words are obscene. Google if you want to read them.
