It was apparently some sort of "instant bridge" that was installed in just a few hours. Seems like someone didn't quite go through all the details like you would when planning the construction of a traditional bridge. Seems crazy to risk it if it was a sort of experimental technology. I wonder how many of these have been installed before, if any. In any case, seems like tragedy resulting from hurried decision making.

Terrible no matter what the case.

It’s called corruption

Who needs code when money is exchanging hands

OSHA's gonna pitch a fit and fire or fine two people to make it all right.

They’ll fire a bricklayer and dock some engineer for the time he spent under the debris.

So walk that way I guess.

There's some engineers and safety inspectors feeling like complete crap tonight. Justifiably so.

Parts of Puerto Rico are still without water and power.

I cried.

'Karma' down the sleeve, 'what goes around comes around' on the back. 96 in big numbers on the back like a football shirt. Shirt is red.

What else can it possibly be a reference to?

Hopefully Goof and Q-Man see this.
