A Bridge Too Far?
Let's start with the basics. We're talking about the Francis Scott Key Bridge, a structure that apparently had a serious case of Monday morning blues.

It more like barged in and caused a colossal hissy fit that ended with the bridge taking a plunge.
Six Feet Under the Bridge
Now, about those poor souls who were unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The official tally stands at six brave individuals who lost their lives in this aquatic adventure.

This whole ordeal has left us all questioning the structural integrity of bridges everywhere. Are they secretly plotting against us? Do they have a grudge against cars and people? Only time will tell. In the meantime, let's all try to be extra nice to bridges. Maybe bring them some flowers or something.
