Fricken awesome footage of it too.
Last report I heard was 8 dead/flat.

That drop would have been a rush.

Anyway RIP to the victims. My uncle lives in St. Paul and told me his wife travels on that bridge every day. Crazy

I used to drive that bridge everyday to work in the mornings, and my buddy drove over the bridge 15 minutes before it dropped.

its gonna be bad.

Wo0t! That's +2
I said the footage was awesome, not the tragedy (if 8 dead people is a tragedy) ya snooker.

if only one person died and that one person was you, then no, it wouldn't be a tragedy. but other people died, so its a tragedy.
