I’ve seen footage of it (when people were driving on it, and when it fell); absolutely incredible. The whole roadbed ripples like waves, and lampposts sway with them. I believe the last car on there fell with a dog in it (the driver ran off)...
Call me crazy if you want and you might be right, but I’d have come off that bridge with my dog or gone down together with it. I can’t imagine leaving a dependent animal in my care behind to die like that.
