A Bridge Too Far?
Imagine you're chilling in your PJs, minding your own business, and suddenly you hear a boom. You look out the window and see, well, half a bridge isn't there anymore. That's basically what happened to Baltimore. It's like the city decided to go on a crash diet and lost a major artery.
Tip: Don’t just glance — focus.
Fish Out of Water
Now, you might be wondering, "How many people actually fell into the drink?" Well, let's just say it wasn't a swimming competition. Only two people managed to escape the watery grave. Talk about beating the odds! They must have some serious luck (or amazing swimming skills) on their side.
Tip: Reading in chunks improves focus.

The Aftermath
The rest of the story isn't exactly a happy one. Sadly, six people didn't make it. It's a tragic reminder that even the strongest structures can crumble. But hey, let's focus on the positive. The rescue efforts were nothing short of heroic. Those first responders deserve all the medals.
QuickTip: Focus more on the ‘how’ than the ‘what’.
So, there you have it. The Baltimore bridge collapse: a dramatic event that left us all shaking our heads. But remember, even in the darkest of times, there's always hope. And maybe, just maybe, it's time to invest in a good life jacket.
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.
