The Moment the Indonesian Bridge Collapses

 

As of this moment, 11 people have died and more than 30 people are still missing after an Indonesian bridge, built to resemble San Francisco's Golden Gate, collapsed.

Tourists filming the bridge from nearby Kumala island captured the moment the 720-metre-long structure collapsed into the Mahakam river.

Witnesses heard a loud crashing sound as the structure buckled, sending a public bus, cars and motorcycles plunging into the water.

Survivors desperately swam to the shore, screaming in panic, while others were trapped underwater beneath the debris.

The cause of the collapse is currently unknown.
