I like to blame the contractors.. just to be different. :D

It does help if you ever hope to actually get a job in engineering ;)

Do you mean the Tacoma Narrows Bridge (or 'Galloping gertie' as it was known)? I think the stupid comment is a bit unkind. A lot of big engineering failures early on were more to do with a lack of knowledge. Before the first failures related to fatigue or constructive oscillation, people simply didn't know that the problem existed. Fatigue has only comparatively recently been understood.

Do you guys remember watching the WTC's collapsing? Perfect example of an engineered infrastructure failure.

People always remember the "Fuck up's" and the saying "It's only a fuck-up when it goes out then door" is commonly used in engineering.Scuse the language,its kind a hard to clean the saying up.

yes it is because of the flutter effect it is actually a classic example of flutter in the aeroelasticity course in almost every aerospace engineering faculty
