Description

The collapse of the I-40 bridge in 2002 was a tragedy, but its aftermath was a story you simply couldn't make up.

It begins with a barge, a bridge, and an impostor, and it ends with a prison sentence, Vladimir Putin, and cheque fraud in Alaska.

A show about engineering failures and disasters. We examine the technical, human and organisational causes of failure, and explore why our decision-making is not nearly as rational as we’d like to think.
