    Well, it seems that the video is blocked from viewing Australia.

    I think Australia is getting "heavier" as a country, so its not that it would be offensive. I'm guessing the video is just too fat to fit through the tiny internet pipes.

    Well, at least the bride and groom seemed to take it in good humour.

    That was funny. Glad nobody got hurt.....other than their pride.

    It's fake: notice how the videographer cut the scene at the moment the structure fails. Most structures do not fail instantaneously like this, there are redundancies built into most structures. This is about as fake as that whole 9/11 thing.

    Ah, yes they do. Redundancies built into a crappy domestic pier? Nah.

    Very memorable for all concerned.

    This. Its not the Verrazano-Narrows people. And it looks home built; and probably didn't have it reinforced for all that excess weight either. Americans are enormous.

    Very memorable for all concerned.
    Although can they ever be sure if people are laughing with them, or at them?

    Thanks Krute.

    I've been away for a few days, but I was able to see it with Taky's alternate link.
