@amazeifystore: A freighter doesn't stop for a concrete column that wasn't designed as a bumper. 🚢💥 In 1980, the Sunshine Skyway disaster proved that bridge supports alone aren't enough to stop a massive ship. Modern engineering now uses "dolphins" because that energy has to go somewhere else to prevent a catastrophe. It is a fascinating look at how we learn from the math of the past to build a safer future. Did you know these massive barriers were designed specifically because of this event?
