Army COE got footage, just seen it on the news at lunch.

All I could think of the whole time was 'what in the hell was going through the minds of the people driving those cars that are at, or halfway over the edge' Then the talk about the guy swimming in the river looking for his daughter. I cannot begin to imagine how that must be. My thoughts go out to all of them.

indeed

my thoughts go out to all those involved.



as the falling part... the odd thing is you probably won't think anything because the interstate is going down along with your car, have the funny feeling in your gut until 65 feet later.. splash. That would be about 2 seconds.

when it is your # is up. It is up regardless of where you are at.

^ Exactly, that arguement works well when bike shopping with the mrs. too.

This is a truely sad thing to have happen, as all the people were innocent. Being in the wrong place at the wrong time really sucks.
