  • Title: 35 W Bridge Collapse 8/1/07
  • Artist: Purple_Pixie_670
  • Description: 1 year ago Mpls, MN 35W bridge collapse at 6:05pm. We lost 13 people and several injuried. It is a day every Minnesotan will never forget. The picture I posted was take one week after the tragic event took place. If was very hard to get too close to the bridge without the possiblity of getting arrested. The red car I believe had a mother with her baby in that car and survived. I posted a reference picture that was taken 2 months after.

  • Thank god for zoom lens. It still amazes me to this day that we didn't lose more people because the bridge collapsed during rush hour. Around the bridge there was A LOT of police and they were arresting anyone who crossed the yellow tape and I wasn't about to take that chance.
