How Heavy Was That Ship, Anyway?
So, let's talk about that time a ship decided it was auditioning for a demolition derby and took a swing at the Baltimore bridge. Talk about a bad day at the office! The ship, let's call it "Captain Oblivious," decided to play a real-life game of "Crash Bandicoot" but without the cute factor.

The Ship That Could (and Did)
Now, the question on everyone's lips (or at least, it should be) is: "How heavy was this behemoth?" Well, let's just say it weighed about as much as your wildest dreams of owning a personal island, multiplied by a thousand. It was like a floating mountain with a serious attitude problem.
Tip: Jot down one takeaway from this post.
Imagine trying to park a skyscraper. That's basically what the captain was dealing with. And to think, some people struggle to parallel park a Mini Cooper.
QuickTip: Repeat difficult lines until they’re clear.
A Bridge Too Far
The bridge, on the other hand, was just minding its own business, probably dreaming of retirement in the Caribbean when bam! Captain Oblivious decided to pay it a surprise visit. Talk about a rude awakening!
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.
It was like a scene from a disaster movie, but without the dramatic music and the obligatory slow-motion shots. Just a big, heavy ship doing its best impression of a wrecking ball.
Tip: Break it down — section by section.
Aftermath and Aftermath
Needless to say, things got a bit chaotic after that. Traffic jams, angry commuters, and a whole lot of "WTF just happened?" But hey, at least it gave people something to talk about at the water cooler.
The good news is, the ship and the bridge are both getting the TLC they need. The ship is probably feeling a bit bruised and battered, while the bridge is probably thinking, "I need a vacation."
So, to answer the burning question: While I couldn't find the exact weight of the ship at the moment of impact (it probably lost a few pounds after the collision), it was definitely in the "whoa, that's heavy" category.
Let's just say it was enough to make a grown man question his life choices.
