Downstate Illinois residents watch as the 78-year-old Seneca
bridge gets imploded. The steel truss bridge, which was 48 feet above the
Illinois River, was replaced two weeks ago by a new bridge at a nearby
location.

  • oh crap how do we get back across

  • blew my load on that bridge!

  • ARE YOU KIDDING ME WE MISSED IT!

  • Thank You Chicago Tribune!!!! Way Better than the Nasty Stuck Up Jerk Anchors at WGN who were too busy Ripping on the small town of Seneca (My town, by the way!) to actually capture the full footage of the implosion! Thank you for actually show casing the deep history of the bridge and what it meant to the good people of the town!

  • My grandma lives near there, I wish I was with her when it blew up 'cause that mofo went

  • @cabbitboy I have seen the old Marseilles bridge and have driven on it before! That was scary as hell, too!

  • "it scared the living Je-heebies out of me"

  • i fucking know jack cunningham he owns a marina there i had a boat in his marina man they finaly blew it up and i missed it

  • WHAT??no slow-mo?

  • Downstate? Seneca is not downstate!!! Springfield is where "downstate" begins. Seneca is relatively north. Silliness.
