Genova, Italy. Another chilling image from my native region: a lorry stops meters from the gap left by a stretch of the suspension bridge which collapsed on the A10 motorway in Genoa this morning. #morandi pic.twitter.com/w2GpIMl5iU

The reporter said the bridge "appeared to collapse". It didn't appear to collapse; it did.
Typical Italian work
This is what happens when your nation is run by a guy who only cares about his bunga bunga parties and no money is put into infrastructure and it's people. I'm pretty sure even the rescue recovery is the bare minimum.
Don’t trust the sun fake and chavs newspaper
Is he sayin oh dear ??
R.I.P. ? best wishes to our lovely neighbors from switzerland…
Design flaw at the V-shape piers: No steel links to hold the two fingers of the V-shape piers, making it intrinsically weak, and eventually collapses as the bridge ages. It is bad idea to use the viaduct as link to hold the V of the piers together. Bad design causes peope die.
Now that's one convention no one wants to see.
wth did it explode or something
Oh boo hoo build it better next time lay ass italians and their long lunches.
God please be no deaths the UK sends love. ??
Ohhhh this is devastating i feel so bad seeing this. Lord rest those souls.
I’m going to Italy on two days ?

Live and learn
Zionist Jew termites!
Did all the news just get real bad real quick
…I drive on that bridge EVERYDAY to go to work… I feel something strange.. I don t know
соболезную.
Sporco putana
Were any of Francesco Schettino's relatives involved in designing or constructing the bridge?
Oh dear oh dear oh dear.
This is the same company that built the bridge in Miami.
Tragic tradegy, imensly saddening
