Watchful Eyes on the Key Bridge: The Unfolding of a Timeline
Speaker: Mike Singer, Founder of the Facebook group “Baltimore and Chesapeake Bay Ship Watchers”
Imagine waking up on a Tuesday morning and finding out that your video is now the most famous clip in the world. That's just the position Mike Singer found himself in on March 26, 2024. Mike is the founder of the Facebook group “Baltimore and Chesapeake Bay Ship Watchers.” The Facebook group was started as a community of shipping enthusiasts. The group is deliberately apolitical to discuss all things relevant to local shipping in our beloved Chesapeake Bay. The livestream video used by the group captured the last minutes of the Dali's voyage. Experts and journalists have used the video, overlayed with AIS or Maryland Transit Administration police dispatch to provide a second-by-second breakdown of the incident. Since the crash, Baltimore and Chesapeake Bay Ship Watchers has been a leading source of factual information for all aspects of the salvage operation. Mike will share the history of the group and the timeline of events associated with the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse. Mike is an engineer, and he lives in the Baltimore area.
The Zoom link will be posted on the home page a week before the program.
