Editing Dames Point Bridge (section)

==Accident==
On May 15, 1989, while inspectors were checking the bridge for cracks and fissures, the boom arm holding a bucket snapped, leaving the bucket tilted on its side. One worker fell into the river below and the others were at risk of plummeting 145 feet down. The man in the river suffered a dislocated shoulder but was able to swim to safety. Rescuers rappelled down the side of the bridge to the other three workers and successfully brought them all to safety.<ref>"[https://www.news4jax.com/news/2019/03/11/a-look-back-dames-point-bridge-celebrates-30-years/ A look back: Dames Point Bridge celebrates 30 years]," ''News4Jax,'' 11 Mar. 2019</ref><ref>"[https://www.news4jax.com/news/2015/10/30/jacksonvilles-dramatic-rescues-caught-on-camera/ Jacksonville's dramatic rescues caught on camera]," ''News4Jax,'' 30 Oct. 2015.</ref> The story of this rescue effort was aired on ''[[Rescue 911]]'' on September 12 of the same year.<ref>Shatner, William (host), "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwa_sirrVNs Rescue 911 - Episode 1.2 - Dames Point Bridge Rescue]," ''CBS.''
