What the hell are people debating here? A 150.000 tonne object crashed into a structure made of thin sticks (comparatively speaking). There is no doubt that the bridge would collapse. Especially since an arch is only stable if it is undamaged.
Mean, median, and mode are measures of central tendency aka average. It’s usually context that indicates which measure we are using when we say average. A lot of the time, when speaking of the average person, we’re using the median or mode rather than the mean.

Yes, but you forget: lots of people are stupid.
George Carlin never fails to be accurate: Think about how stupid the average person is, then realize that half of them are even stupider than that.
He’s not accurate, though. That’d be the median person. With the average person I’d expect much more than half to be stupider than that.
What measure are we using? Standard IQ is normal distributed so the mean and median are the same
I was joking

How many fingers does your average person have?
I was joking and also didn’t know that average in English can be any one of them.
How dare you insult our nation’s precious little conservatives!
