Ship sinking Richards Bay

we were surfing the south pier that day! haha was awesome

Next titanic

Planned accident?  Damn close to the shore and not in the shipping lanes.

Being on a sinking ship will be my last time going on a ship...

Hard to watch with constant zooming and panning

well shit I buckle I the midde

That's the Pacific Rim theme in the background

I would think her engine flooded, but yet her lights are on.

omg theres my beach!!! <3 :D:D:D

what a waste... 150 000 tons of coal

Check in the video description, there's a link to the video of the ship the next day, the back and front separated completely :D

next time invest in an anchor.

do i hear pacific rim music ? lol

Better Waves!!!

Lekker man, lekker. Just think it could be a badly missed new reef. Once cleaned up if it's left there, but I guess part of it will be sticking out of the water it's not very deep there.

PS: that ship might have hit a sand bank, but damm it's also very close to shore,

problem, this one they not simply re floating, this they might pull 100m and it will start sinking immediately with it's back broken, new diving spot, or not since it is in the shipping lane.

Nice waves. Fun left. Apart from the ecological disaster, RB will now get some fun waves of that boat as the sand banks shift. jokes aside, this is not cool. I seriously thought the Kiano Sato was gonna end up like this at Buffelsbaai last week. Massive surf was pounding that ship for more than a week. Lucky to get it off, and good work by all involved. Would be interesting to see if the owners of Smart are gonna pay for this like the aforementioned ship's owners did. Lets wait and see!
