Collapsing Bridge


During the rush hour, just after 6pm on Wednesday, 1st August, 2007, the central span of the Mississippi River Bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, suddenly gave way. The structure and deck collapsed into the river and onto the riverbanks below. Approximately 100 vehicles fell with the span and 13 people lost their lives.

The collapse was recorded by an outdoor security camera.
