Some idiot not knowing their mast heights / clearance. But it's going to get compared to the Baltimore collapse and a bunch of retards are going to start arguing as if the Brooklyn Bridge just got taken out. The bridge didn't even notice that ship.
>Mexican flag
Lol. Icing on the cake.
Yeah, sailboats hitting bridges with their mast are frankly a dime-a-dozen, and a wooden mast is going to scratch the paint and maybe bend a few bars on the truss (not even major structural damage).
But yeah, I can absolutely see the usual tards try and say it's totally the same as a container ship losing control even though it was sailing without a tug like it should have.
Must be from that math is racist crowd
I used to live near a bridge that had an underpass. You'd be surprised the number of times a truck would try to drive under that didn't fit.
Yeah there’s whole YouTube channels dedicated to trucks hitting specific bridges. This one has been hit probably hundreds of times lol

"People are stupid" doesn't debunk every conspiracy theory but it does this one
Hang on. Ain't nobody else notice that the ship is going in reverse?
Why the hell is the ship reversing through a bridge?
Just a guess but they lost engines and were just floating with the current?
That seems pretty fast for floating with the current.
Hell, if they were floating, it probably would have just stopped. I don't think the inertia would have carried it entirely under the bridge.
Someone call Matthew C. Perry.
COLD STEEL
A vessel full of Mexican nationals fearing for their lives and fleeing New York was mercilessly destroyed by the same nationalistic infrastructure that Trump has repeatedly endorsed, confirming that bridges are indeed racist...
Needs more "The phallic bridge towers and offensively rigid deck were oppressing the womyns as they were in the womanly fluid embrace of the river".
The analogy is perfect because the river is full of shit and has killed thousands of depressed men yet remains cold and indifferent.
Yeah - I’d guess this particular type of “crash” happens about as often as trucks slamming into low overpasses (that are clearly marked with the allowed height)
Edit: lol - saw another angle - stupid thing was being pulled by a tug boat, so you had not one but two captains at fault here
This ship belongs to the Mexican navy and was being operated by the Mexican crew.
Which tells me that the media and Mexican government are going to blame Americans.
Obviously, the original designers of the bridge and those who maintain it today were ableist in how they failed or more likely REFUSED to take into account the blind and
retardedmentally-impaired who cannot see the bridge or know how high it hangs over sea level. Climate change also caused it because it probably caused the river to rise higher or something. Either way, they need to shut the bridge down and build it higher RIGHT now so that those people can be properly accommodated!“Why does the Brooklyn bridge not have clearance listed IN SPANISH numbers?
Be better fellow whyte people!”
That too! Or as they would say, "iEso Tambien!"
It was actually a mexican ship. Mexican navy
It will be a few days before they can no longer hide that it was a woman captaining the ship.
I thought I could scrape under the ridge,
But I got high.
Now my masts are gone,
And I know why.
(Why man? Yay-HEEYYYY!)
Because I got high! Because I got high! Because I got hiiiiiggghhhh!
La-da-da-da-da-da...
We need to sink those damn Mexican boats. Call in the Mario Bros.
Trump could use this as a casus belli, declare Mexico an enemy nation and start the mass deportations. By the end of his term he could have deported half the 11 million illegals.
There were definitely people on the masts. Seems one there are a few critically injured too
Oh is bridge hunting season open already?
You hear that, "Can Opener" bridge?
The hebrews are at fault for this
Well it's going backwards at a weird angle, where even if it fit under the bridge it would hit the shore. My guess is that it was adrift and did not intend to go under the bridge at all.
Yeah, there's an angle from on the bridge here: https://x.com/TheImmortal007/status/1923951713641431081 That shows a tugboat trying to push it away and it slips by.
