Description: #history #bridge #disaster The Silver bridge was an Eyebar link Bridge in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, United States which spanned the Ohio River . It was opened in 1928 but was designed for the lighter vehicles of the time as it was thus not future-proofed for more modern heavier traffic. On December 15, 1967, the Silver Bridge had a catastrophic failure under the weight of rush-hour traffic, resulting in the deaths of 46 people. The collapse would be attributed to many theories including a low flying aircraft and even mothman, but would be due to a minute crack and its non-redundant design.
