Sunshine Skyway Disaster
Sunday marks the 30th anniversary of the disastrous collapse of the Sunshine Skyway bridge in 1980.

Vehicles, including a Greyhound bus heading for Miami, plunged into the water, leaving 35 dead. Hear the "Mayday" emergency distress calls from several witnesses to the U.S. Coast Guard.
