Looks somewhat underwhelming but on the other hand I am no demolition expert or structural engineer.
- 1100 kg of explosives apparently, but yeah wish it was more spectacular
- Judging by the video, the Russians seem to have placed barriers around the supports as buffers against this exact sort of thing. The explosion's centre seems to be at one of these barriers rather than at the support itself. It'll take another drone to go through that hole and hit the support, I think. Of course, I'm no expert - I'm just trying to interpret what I'm seeing.
- Probably not suitable for tanks or heavy supply convoys anymore.
  
  would like to see them try anyway and make dozen or so tanks become submarines
  
  Their navy does need to be enlarged...
- Kind of makes me hope for a delayed reaction like the dam explosion in the movie Force 10 From Navarone.
  
  Do you mean this one?
  
  No. The sequel to that one.
  
  How did I have no idea Harrison Ford was in that?!
- Underwater shockwaves are no joke. The bridge is still standing though, wonder how long.
  
  Torpedos explode below the target for a reason!
  That displaced water has to go somewhere
