New video of the collapse raises questions!

Dresden- A previously unknown video of the collapse of the Carola Bridge. It raises questions!

The clip shows the accident that happened on Wednesday from a completely different perspective. The footage appears to have been taken from the bow camera of a ship moored there.

This video shows much better than any recorded footage, how the important Dresden bridge apparently suddenly collapsed at around 3 a.m.!

Immediately afterwards, a flash of lightning followed as the falling bridge parts came into contact with the river.

It is still unclear what the cause was. It may have been the reaction of water with electricity.

In any case, overhead tram lines were present on the bridge.

What is particularly frightening is that at the time of the dramatic incident, a transporter was also driving over the bridge!

At first it looks as if the car is about to disappear into the Elbe – but then you realize that the car is not on the affected part of the bridge.

As it became known the following morning, initially only part C of the Carola Bridge – on which the trams run – had collapsed.
