Well, at this point, the ends of the beam are overhanging the supports. Not much to land on, but something.

Yeah, but what if one point of contact breaks, but not the other? Ugh. Seems to be breaking some fundamental rule of safety in my mind, but I guess that's why they pay those guys the big bucks.

I guess I'm not sure what all the safeties are that exist... Maybe it's just an accepted risk?
