This dramatic footage captured by Corso shows the moment a Mexican navy ship collided with the Brooklyn Bridge, leaving at least 19 sailors injured.

The vessel, ARM Cuauhtemoc, was en route from New York to Iceland when strong currents in the East River pushed it off course. Around 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, the tall ship slammed into the underside of the bridge, shearing off its 147-foot masts.

Falling debris struck several crew members, with at least four reported in critical condition, according to Mayor Eric Adams.

Authorities are now investigating the cause of the crash. The bridge, which has a clearance of 135 feet, was not closed at the time of the incident.
