Did it fall because of wind-induced vibs that caused it to vibrate at the bridge's freq or was it just built wrong and the cars would've made it fall? ALSO, did it vibrate when no wind was blowing? Thanks guys

it should have definitely fallen due to d resonance freq being varied at d middle of it..
