I don't understand why people are calling this a black swan event. Put a bridge over a shipping lane and at some point, probability says it will get hit.
By that logic, a big part of the Pacific fleet could be trapped in San Diego; drop Coronado Bridge
They know they don't need to drop the Coronado Bridge...odds are higher a nigger welding or doing some other work will set the stupid ships ablaze.
Good point. Having a ship burn for, what, 5 days pierside, is amazing.
