Ship Splits In Two
I just read an article about an accident in the Strait Of Gibraltar. A 35,000 ton ship smashed into rocks in extreme winds after two tug boats failed to save the massive ship. Fortunately, all of the crew members were saved thanks to a successful rescue effort. Even though strange stuff like this does happen, I find this kinda odd. The ship got pinned against a rocky cliff despite two tug boats pulling it away. I don't understand why this ship would be out on the water next to rocky areas in the middle of an extremely strong storm. Although I'm sure they have a schedule to stick to, I would think they would put the crews safety first, or at least that's what I would do.
