When a Bridge Went Wild: The Tacoma Narrows Bridge Collapse of 1940 | Whiteboard Animation

On November 7, 1940, the brand-new Tacoma Narrows Bridge—nicknamed Galloping Gertie—went down in history for all the wrong reasons. Just four months after opening, this massive suspension bridge began twisting violently in the wind before collapsing into Puget Sound in one of the most famous engineering disasters ever caught on film. In this whiteboard animation, discover why the bridge behaved like a living creature, how a powerful force called resonance and a phenomenon known as aeroelastic flutter tore it apart, and the lessons engineers learned that changed bridge design forever. 🌉 What you’ll learn: Why the Tacoma Narrows Bridge earned the nickname Galloping Gertie How resonance and wind forces caused its destruction The iconic footage that shocked the world The engineering lessons that still protect modern bridges today If you love history, engineering, and fascinating true stories, this video will keep you hooked until the final frame.
