    Did girder buckle before it fell? See for yourself on video - By Shelby Sebens, StarNewsOnline.com, NC
    Oak Island | A video released Friday shows a 121-ton girder apparently buckling before it collapsed Wednesday morning, killing one worker and injuring two others at the construction site of the second Oak Island bridge.

    Kyle Thomas, the town’s new public information officer, was videotaping the construction Wednesday when the girder came down.
