The video shows the ship losing power & all it's lights going out prior to hitting the bridge.

Apparently, it's not the first time it's collided with something though.

EDIT: this other video analysis shows it better, https://youtu.be/N39w6aQFKSQ

  • T-4 min: loses power, going at 8.7 KN, starts drifting off course
  • T-3 min: regains power, starts slowing down
  • T-0: impacts bridge, at 1.5 KN

The video shows the ship losing power & all it's lights going out prior to hitting the bridge.

Not the video I've seen:

Before crash

Bridge falls onto ship

After crash

All lights on the ship seem to be on, except for the ones that... well, stop being attached to the ship.
