A Bridge Too Far
Let's rewind a bit. A semi-truck, full of who-knows-what (probably not kittens and rainbows), decides to have a little too much fun on the bridge. Next thing you know, it's hanging off the edge like a bad hangover. The city of Louisville must have thought, "Great, just great. Another day, another crisis."
QuickTip: Reread tricky spots right away.
Operation: Get That Truck Back

That's right, a crane. Not just any crane, mind you, but a super-sized, muscle-bound crane. It was like watching a tiny ant trying to lift an elephant, but with way more cables and hydraulics.
The Great Escape
Slowly but surely, the crane started to pull. It was a tense moment. Would the truck hold? Would the crane buckle? Would someone start singing "I Will Survive"? Thankfully, the truck made it back onto the bridge, like a triumphant hero returning home.
A sigh of relief swept through the city. The bridge was saved, the driver was rescued, and everyone could go back to their regularly scheduled lives. Well, almost. There were still a few traffic jams to clear up, but that's a story for another day.
