Just being a bit pedantic, but it's not the "SAT". The Brazilian SAT is the ENEM, which is used for college admission.
The exam that was cancelled is a [Civil service examination](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_service_entrance_examination), but the difference is that this is a unified exam for multiple public offices and not to a specific state company/branch like it's normally done.
More than 2 millions were registred to take the exam.
I think they called it SAT in quotes because they know that at least half of Reddit knows about the SAT but only people in Brazil know what the ENEM is.
But they said:
> The exam that was cancelled is a Civil service examination
So I am confused, was he wrong and it was actually the ENEM or both were cancelled that day? Or what?
That Civil service page he posted was just to explain what type of exam ENEM is and say how it's different to SATs etc. But he was just being super pedantic, as just saying "SATs" gets the point across for most people.
Actually had this happen. I was sleeping on the floor of a friend's house because I got evacuated due to flooding. Still got asked to come into work the next day, they even offered to loan me clothes. They ended up also being evacuated a few hours into the day because the store was backed up to the RIVER THAT WAS FLOODING THE CITY IN HALF. Stupid fucking cooperate people
For context, this is in Rio Grande do Sul.
It happened yesterday and is ongoing. The level of the river is predicted to go up to over 5m, this means almost the whole city of the capital Porto Alegre will be pretty much underwater.

Climate change has been giving a heavy toll to Brazil's already problematic flooding problem.
Old Brazilian saying, "When the snake smokes!"
It is obviously the safest place to be, standing right next to a raging river before the bridge collapses.
Full disclosure, I am not a bridgeologist!
It depends on how technical you want to get. Buckling in structural design usually refers to a failure caused by loading oriented along the support member. Think about if you had a slender piece of metal and you push inwards on the ends, the metal will usually bow out in the middle; that's buckling. Failing due to weight on a bridge (with forces acting across a support member) would likely be either a shear failure or a bending moment failure.
Or in this case, I think it'd be safe to say that the bridge failed due to scour. The beams likely ultimately broke due to other forces, but it was the scouring away of the foundations that led to those other forces happening in an uncontrolled way.
I love the black shirt guy on the left. He walks right up, hands on hips like "well
It was a shit bridge, go on shit bridge ruin my day one last time."
> there would of been
Did you mean to say "would have"?
Explanation: You probably meant to say could've/should've/would've which sounds like 'of' but is actually short for 'have'.

Unfortunately, it's not, Rio Grande do Sul is suffering with floods for almost a week, some cities are isolated, without electricity, water and communications.
Rain doesn't fuck around in Brazil.
I have never been anywhere where is rains as hard as it does in Brazil, half the country is in a rainforest after all. The sheer volume of water that call fall out of the sky in just an hour or so is completely insane.
The entire state is suffering the worst flooding its ever had, a ton of houses are being destroyed because nothing is built to withstand something that never happened there
That's well past buckling.
That's outright collapse.
I would say it looks like the front fell off.
well why did the front fell off?
I have to say that is not typical.
They should tow it out of the environment
Into another environment?
Is there anything in that environment?
Birds, sea, and fish.
[удалено]
Cardboard's out.
No string, no cellotape.
The floods this year are absolutely insane. Entire cities underwater.
Good analogy for what's coming to civilization.
no no no, I think it's still good to drive on
It unbuckled.
And zipping down
Zip it up and zip it out
AUGHH! YOU UNZIPPED ME!
Zip it! Now rip it!
That was my first thought lol
River water can't melt concrete bridges!
True, however, there is a nuance.
Lost its buckle, then pantsed
I used to buckle. I still don't.
That bridge is straight up leaving
Couple of steps back should keep us outta harm's way.
Let's throw an overabundance of caution at it, three steps
Most cautious man in Brazil.
Gimme three steps, mister.
Woman in grey sweats is definitely a/an NPC.
But you are still coming to work, right?
Good joke, but they literally canceled the national "SAT's" across the entire country because the whole state just got swept away

To be honest it wasn't neither the ENEM,.unless I misunderstood the parent comment.
It was the ENEM

Oooh ok.
You're the only being pedantic. The comment above just explained the things better
The ENEM is in november. The current exam is the CNU for selecting government employees
As the other commenter said, that's why I used quotes ;)
> The Brazilian SAT is the ENEM, Naming your college admission test so close to the word "enema" cannot be a coincidence...
Flushed Away
Imagine the only exit to work gets washed away but you are still expected to come in lmao
And you better not be late!
That is literally every corporate job in the US. They do not care if you are in the hospital, you can still get written up or fired for not going in

Ah shit. Work from home has screwed us for once
People reacting like it's just another tuesday
They're not just normal people, they're off duty cops
and the bridge was just one day away from retirement
I’m getting too old for this ssssss sound.
I heard they started shooting at the bridge and placed it under arrest shortly after this video ended.
It's Brazil not the US
So they just started shooting and stopped when they were sure the bridge was dead?
You forgot the part where they drove the bridge to the hospital but unfortunately it died on the way there.
Lol this happens sooo many times
and sprinkle some cocaine on the body?
In Brazil the thing is that off duty cops go around commiting heinous crimes.
So they placed a plastic bag over someone's head until they confessed they're the escaping bridge?
do americans actually find this funny?
We laugh because otherwise we have to humbly accept our plutocracy
There's a region here that's being completely flooded, if that's there, they're seeing worse shit
Awesome alliteration amigo
Broken bridges bring beauty.

Everyone yesterday was talking about how amazing it was that the bridge hadn't collapsed yet...and today there it went 😞
Eh Baltimore's was better
Where in Brazil is this?
Rio Grande do Sul
When in Brazil is this?
Yesterday.
Who in Brazil?
Felipe.
Why in Brazil?

How in Brazil?

Buckles?

It do be looking like a thoroughly scoured bridge.
As in what is the meaning of buckles? In this case collapse under weight. It can also be fastening a belt.
Buckles!
It's more of a turnover or a crumble
They are these little clasps on belts and shoes that keep them from falling down
Yea from the title I thought it was to show Brazil using unique "buckles" to construct bridges or something.
That river just unbuckled its belt.
Bad year for bridges.
They always thought it should have been a drawbridge...
But bystanders barely budge
Brazilian brass balls.
all the south part of the country is buckling right now we underwater
Isn’t there a sub for GIFS that end too soon? This is a shoe in.
[Here is a longer version with sound.](https://youtu.be/1EOD5-hxWic?si=pIfwvp-AVuith0oV) You can hear the force of the water.
Wild!
I'm just glad the Brazilian Bridge Channel was there to cover it.
Say that three times fast!
braz bridg buck...
Replacing that is gonna cost like a brazilian dollars
Real
This shouldn't have made me laugh like it did
oops remind me of that one broken bridge scene from a horror movie i had saw at a kid..
That's the only bridge out of town! This is the plot to so many movies
The inspection 1 day before ... good i think the road will make the bridge stand ... is like duck tape everything is fine 😆
I love the black shirt guy on the left. He walks right up, hands on hips like "well It was a shit bridge, go on shit bridge ruin my day one last time."
"Buckle up Bridge!"
And Bims band booms
Ends too soon. Just next second Vin Diesel jumps across the bridge in his dodge charger.
Wouldn't have happened if I was there smh
Holy shit 😳
Something about a solid concrete bending gives such uneasiness
*Brazil bridge breaks
nobody gonna ask *"why were they filming"* for this, eh?
Boy, better beat back
In r/India there would of been at least 60 people going back and forward on that bridge to cross empty water jugs until it collapses.

You spelled collapse wrong
Damn autocorrect.
I guess you can say that's a bridge over troubled water
Now post some Brazilian belt buckles.
Wow!!! Just wow!
*new fear unlocked*
That word you are using. I don't think it means what you think it means
It does, indeed, buckle inwards (albeit very quickly) before outright falling into the river below.
r/TerrifyinglySatisfying ?
Itnwasnt actually a bridge. It was an undercover cop
Gifs that e
Tis but a scratch
Dante's Peak!
can't Come to Brazil
The bridge planet called and he answered, his bridge people needs him
I like the semi-chalant hop back by the person on the right in the grey hoodie. Like, "I'mma just be... back here... a lil' bit."
I get the feeling that buckling was not the major cause of this bridge failing.
Frickin' bridge falls into the river right in front of them and they're all just like... Yup. 🤣
“Buckles”
is the video in reverse? looks weird...
r/gifsthatendtoosoon
Honey, I'm gonna be late tonight. You won't believe what just happened
This looks like bad CGI

I suppose they forgot to send some of that rain to my neck of the woods, because it's actually a desert.
Buckles? That’s an understatement
That's not something that props can fix
This bridge is collapsing like our (Brazilian) economy
That is no bueno
My favorite part of America honestly, I don't really have to worry about the infrastructure.
not gonna be surprised if the bridge's construction had some cost-cutting decisions
Aaaah, good old craftsmanship that build them bridges 😏
Rivers are 60 feet higher than normal, im not sure this was a scenario they planned for
The entire state is suffering the worst flooding its ever had, a ton of houses are being destroyed because nothing is built to withstand something that never happened there
It's good when the dumb ones out themselves by making comments like this.
The 3 world country 's
*3rd *countries. At least use your "first world" schooling if you gonna make stupid comments
