Video shows dangerous falling ice that forced Mackinac Bridge to close last week

Bridge was closed for consecutive days

Video shows ice falling from the Mackinac Bridge last week, a danger that forced the bridge to close for multiple days.

Video from the Mackinac Bridge Authority shows the moment ice plummeted from the arches of the bridge, through the air before crashing and shattering onto the roadway below. (See the short video in the player above)

The Mackinac Bridge was closed for multiple days last week due to the falling ice. Drivers were asked to avoid the area.

The Mackinac Bridge Authority also shared a couple of photos from the ice-related closure last week:
