Here's Something You Don't See Every Day...

[Sad Max]

...a cargo ship dumping its load after a collision off the coast of India.

Hope no one's awaiting a shipment of hardware offa that ship...

 

[Doc Bernard]

I hereby claim salvage rights! Now to figure out how to get over there and get it.

 

[Nathyn]

That's what I'm thinking. eBay here I come.

"Great price on the camera...but what's that slosh noise...?"

 

[Brandon Rice]

lol.

Reminds me of the A-Team movie... saw it again last night.

 

[Jim Brennan]

I'm no expert, but I wonder what it could have collided with to cause that kind of damage? It's friggin huge and visibility looks pretty decent.

 

[Al MacLeod]

As a wreck diver. I've read a few accounts of collisions at sea...there's a lot of "Let the other guy turn, I've got the right of way here" going on.

 

[Sad Max]

Yeah. Combine that with ships that take miles to stop or make a turn to begin with, and...

...*CRUNCH*.

Nothing like a million tons of steel to make you brave.

We were only a couple of hundred miles West of San Francisco in the recent Pacific Cup when we got in a bit of an argument with one of these guys...sailing vessels have the right away, but the freighters are a lot bigger, it can be a bit nerve wracking...

Generally I prefer being alive to being right...

 

[Rick Meyer]

The captain's probably thinking, "I shouldn't have eaten that one last doughnut."

 

[Jim Brennan]

My Dad always told me that I could generally choose between being right and being happy.

 

[ilauzirika]

I always ask myself... what happens with all those parcels that vanish deep into the ocean or get burnt in a traffic accident..........

 

[Rick Meyer]

My Dad always told me that I could generally choose between being right and being happy.

Was that on your wedding day?

 

[Jim Brennan]

Was that on your wedding day?

Close enough :beer:

 

[David G. Smith]

The captain's probably thinking, "I shouldn't have eaten that one last doughnut."

Or, "....Had that last beer"!

 

[Zissou]
