In the current news climate we see that some figures and events tend to dominate the front-pages heavily. Still, there a
Plot to stop Trump getting re-elected obviously. Foul play in politics involving water. Maybe someone could come up with a catchy name for that.
What are all the small explosions on the bridge just before it came down? Even if they have wires in the structure for the aviation lights, would it cause an explosion of that magnitude if the wires broke?
I'm not an expert but it seems to me a cargo ship ramming into a bridge could have caused systems on the bridge to fail catastrophically.

All you need to do is pause this video (before it's removed that is) frame by frame. Are there any electrical engineers itt that can explain it?

Don’t worry ,
It’s just a practice of an 9/11 take 2 coming soon .
Homeland Security raid P Diddy's home. Details of investigation aren't specified but online suspicion abounds of sex trafficking.

I would have thought the bridge would have been built strong enough to survive a slow boat. Really odd.
I'm sure if a canoe hit it everything would be fine.
civil engineers have been saying for a while trillions of dollar are needed for American failing infrastructure, the maintenance capex deficit accumulated is outrageous, in the high tens of billions per years for decades, but decarbonizing, pleasing teachers unions, keeping military bases in Europe and Japan, letting people retire at 60, and so on is more important so here we are.

Don't forget that church in Alabama that had to close for covid.
That was bad but isn't a different priority for public money expenditure, so it has nothing to do with it.
Every time you spend public money on something (which represents a portion of a FINITE quantity of real resources) you are saying everything else is less important.
That's how real life works.

I’m not sure many bridges could stand that type of hit by the ship of that size
They don't. They also don't plan for airplanes hitting buildings.
ship collision protection for bridges is standard engineering practice , example
in this specific case
https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/exper...
if you don't scale protection devices with increasing threats you add unmitigated risk.
doesn't mean even state of the art collision protection would have prevented the disaster in this specific case.
but lol at implying 1) buildings wrt airplanes incur in anything analogous 2) it's "obvious" this was inevitable (it isn't).

What "systems" will cause simultaneous small explosions on the other side of the bridge that wasn't hit? That was my specific question. If you can't answer it, don't try to brush it under the rug like you were programmed to do.

I haven't tried to look at any of the footage but it's going to be really hard to determine if the explosions happened before the hit, plus there could be stuff going on underwater that's not visible to cameras.

There's a high tension power line next to the bridge, I'm not exactly sure but it looks like at least a hundred feet. Even if the explosions happened after the hit, what would cause that in a bridge which is made of metal? I'm just literally dumbfounded that every news station keeps showing that clip but no one is asking "why are there little explosions of fire like we see in a controlled demolition on the opposite end of the bridge"?

I don't know which explosions you are referring to, I didn't see any

Sparks from the power line shorting out/breaking on the metal bridge?

I don't know anything about this incident or the timing of these sparks but a lot of juice flows through these bridges to power the movement, lights and sounds . You pull one of these cables out without shutting off the power to it, you could potentially have a crazy amount of live power that could ignite anything it grounds against.
I mean pulling a starter wire that draws 150amps while a car is running can cause a hefty spark and a puff of smoke. We are dealing with a little more here.
