  1. ship was built by Hyundai.

    no wonder they lost power in the middle of river.

    my hyundai locked up engine in the middle of highway.

  2. A power failure and subsequent reverse attempt ( to stop its forward momentum) may have caused the ship to diverge from the outbound shipping lane. There are reports that the port anchor was deployed. To little to late. Takes a lot to stop that much ship.

  3. its shows 2 things – Singapore cant see properly and USA the so called First world Infrastructure is failing. Hope all the people effected are safe!

  4. Ship lost power a few minutes after leaving port of Baltimore. MAERSK DALI was outbound from Baltimore, destination Sri Lanka.

  5. 🙄 if only there was some kind of technology that could have prevented this,, like high intensity lights, having people on duty watching for ships, hight sencing devices, checking a ships height before they get close to a bridge 🌉 being guided by tug boats, a rapid response team in helicopters to drop down on the deck etc, etc.. or you could just hire some old person for night watch that falls asleep 😴

  6. Ships entering ports are normally under the control of a local pilot. If that is the case, all responsibility falls on the pilot.

  7. Anybody remembers this |ndian terrorist by the name of Sai Varshith Kandula? |ndia could be behind the collapse of this bridge.
