Now this is why I disagree with grippers in some regards, using them for lifting like this is just a disaster waiting to happen! View attachment 82266

must've felt it and probably thought he'd gotten away with it ------ he was obviously well clear of the subsequent collapse, or he'd have been under it all

Must of pulled it off with him, looks to of cleared it initially then clipped on the exit.

I had to laugh, saw a picture of a box van near it afterwards and everyone was saying that’s what did it

How many bridges are built with that sort of sideways movement in mind?

 

[Lancs Lad]

In fact .;

average impact force of a 36-tonne truck traveling at 40 mph ranges from 586.7 tonnes-force (if it stops over a distance of 1 meter) to 1,173.4 tonnes-force (if it stops over 0.5 meters).

There was a pic of a Merc 8 wheeler from a skip company under the bridge with the destruction behind it - I guess that’s the chap who’s been arrested.

exactly ... looks like the parapet stonework just moved out the way and let it drop
