The recovery of two individuals who perished in the tragic collapse of Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge has been confirmed, following the bridge's collision with a container ship. It is feared that four additional lives have been lost. Construction workers engaged in pothole repairs on the bridge were the victims of this calamity. Amidst the chaos, two survivors were pulled from the water, with one receiving urgent care at a trauma center. The incident escalated when the vessel lost power, leading to an emergency closure of the bridge. The ensuing footage and maritime expert analysis depict a catastrophic event, narrowly avoiding an even graver outcome. Jennifer Homendy, Chair of the National Transportation Safety Board, announced on NBC News that the voyage recorder data from the ship Dali has been secured. The repercussions of the bridge's downfall are anticipated to ripple through the economy, potentially affecting consumers from the East Coast all the way to the Midwest. This bridge bore the name of Francis Scott Key, the author of the iconic poem "The Star-Spangled Banner." Check out the video on YouTube! @Surreyim5G
