Oops.
A 35-ton concrete truck drives over an Ohio bridge marked for six tons. Truck is written off, driver makes monkey of self.

doh!

The internal monologue went something like this: Sure wish I had time for that second cup of joe this mornin'. dum dumm dum Not much traffic today. doot de doo Ah, man, look at the time! I gotta get this load out there or the boss 'll have me in concrete overshoes. I'll take the Morrow Bridge--cuts off twenny minutes. OH SHIT
-
And there's probably a brief moment of "I'm gonna die! I'm really gonna die!" when the bridge and truck starts sinking.

Your old schoolteachers were right: math and science could save your life one day.
