any idea  where, when, who, how? Kinda looks like the intercoastal, but thats assuming it was in the US.

edit: this link has some intersting comments claiming it was thunder bay (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2Wn2RDzsvg&mode=related&search=)

Ok edit again, here's the article: http://www.boatnerd.com/windoc/

You can make out that the bridge is still lowering as the ship hits it.

Looks like it's late afternoon, a half a bottle at lunch, assuming it's
not a half gallon of chianti, is going to be metabolized pretty quick.

What's that blogcomment there that says the bridge operator died?  
As he/she lowered the bridge?   Could have been a late lunch, perhaps?

I'd guess the bridge was locking  down for the night.  Maybe it was
5 o'clock, street traffic  backed up, and the operator was going home.
 
Oooops,  you guys were scheduled to go thru here over an hour ago!
 
G. forbid there were any bottled ablusions aboard the Windoc....
after loading dusty metric tons of grain all day!:rolleyes:
