Mexican Navy Ship Crashes Brooklyn Bridge

Here are some fried facts (spicy, surprising, or little-known details) about the Mexican Navy ship crash into the Brooklyn Bridge in 2016:

1. The Ship Was a 'Tall Ship' – But Not That Tall

The vessel, ARM Cuauhtémoc, was a three-masted barque used as a training ship by the Mexican Navy.

Despite its 267-foot length and 170-foot mast height, it didn’t fully clear the Brooklyn Bridge’s clearance (about 133 feet at high tide).

2. The Crash Was a 'Slow-Motion' Accident

Unlike dramatic Hollywood crashes, this was a slow scrape—the ship’s mast grazed the bridge while passing underneath.

No injuries or major structural damage occurred, but the top 20 feet of the mast snapped off like a twig.

3. The Ship Had Just Celebrated the 4th of July

The Cuauhtémoc had been docked in New York for Independence Day festivities and was departing when the accident happened.

Ironically, it had just participated in a parade of tall ships—only to become a viral news story hours later.

4. The Captain Blamed the Tides (But Was Still Relieved of Duty)

The Mexican Navy claimed 'human error' and tidal miscalculations caused the crash.

The ship’s captain was temporarily relieved of command pending an investigation.

5. NYC Had a Mini Panic Over Bridge Safety

Even though the bridge was fine, New Yorkers briefly freaked out—after all, this was the Brooklyn Bridge, an iconic landmark.

Inspectors quickly confirmed the bridge was structurally sound, but the incident became a meme-worthy moment.

6. The Ship Had a Nickname: 'The Ambassador of the Seas'

The Cuauhtémoc was known for its global goodwill tours, making the crash extra embarrassing.

After repairs, it continued its mission—minus a few feet of mast.

Bonus: The Ship’s Name Honors an Aztec Emperor

Cuauhtémoc was the last Aztec ruler who resisted Spanish conquistadors—fitting for a ship that fought (and lost) against a bridge.
