I think the bridge that collapsed in Minneapolis yesterday might be visible in this picture I took while landing at MSP about one year ago. It could be the structure visible to the left of the Metro Dome.
I might ask my Minnesotan friend Tony Collen, who probably still reads this blog. What do you say, Tony?
Either way, it’s scary to think that while you are merrily driving along, a bridge might collapse under your feet. Still, from a purely statistical point of view, we take way greater risks while driving every day, even without poorly built bridges.
