At the end of the movie, it states that the cause of the bridge collapse was never determined. The real Silver Bridge is known to have collapsed due to a failure of I-bar 330 on the north of the Ohio subsidiary chain just below the top of the Ohio tower. The failure of a single I-bar brought the bridge down due to lack of redundancy in the design of the structure. Traffic loads far exceeded what the bridge was built to carry.
