I said it was not designed to endure the flexing the placement of the subway trains causes, and that's the truth. All suspension bridges flex, but not in the twisting manner we see in this movie. The designer never considered such flexing because he never designed the bridge with heavy rail on the outside. That was a later change. The repair job strengthened the structure to withstand it. |
