No need to be an engineer to know that this adventure was not going well

 

The only possible way to cross this river is through a ferry, but despite its archaic aspect, both the drivers and the platform were optimistic enough to think that it would cross this river in Veracruz, Mexico bearing the weight of three loaded lorries.

What is really surprising is not that the ferry has collapsed during the course, but rather how it has remained balanced for so long!
