Lol mate, stop reading grayzone & rt.com.

The UK Daily Telegraph is reporting that all four perpetrators were caught trying to flee to Ukraine. The DT is very anti-Russian.

They've reported the FSB said that. Which is obvious bullshit to anyone with a modicum of common sense

The same FSB that were responsible for this pearler:

Waiting for the FSB to post something like this, from the desk of Vlad.

Jesus. Not surprising if the supports are taken away

Only good thing is it would be really early in the morning over there/late at night so less people on a commute.

How that happens in this day and age is beyond me. Was the captain drunk? Then again we had a ship trying to do a u-turn or some s**t in the Suez a few years ago and Costa Concordia about a decade ago.

Happened in slow motion. Surely the pilot was on the piss.

Could this happen on the Westgate? Guess protection will need to be installed around pylons from now on as a mitigation against this stuff.

Apparently those ships only have one engine, so could have failed and he couldn't turn. Who knows.

Columns normally have protection and are designed for accidents but that's as per the code. I dare say this bridge wasnt designed to be rammed by such a large vessel at a certain speed.

That's a don't come Monday by the ship captain.

AFAIK the Westgate support columns are all land based so a runaway ship couldn't ram them.

Apparently there was a power failure. Lucky at was at 1am and not at peak/during the day. Could have been much worse.

Was still pretty s**t. 6 workers still missing. One of the biggest international ports out of the US is now not operating.

It's a pretty big disaster no matter which way you look at it.

Bradesmaen Bojan KantKick * I hate golf. You always play just well enough that you don't quit on the spot throwing your clubs in the lake.

First game since NYE.
55 going out... Putrid. 40 coming in with 5 pars.

Reminds me of my game in Mauritius (also last time I played), few pars, few shockers. Got a par on a par 5, 2nd toughest hole on the course after landing it near the flag in 3 (severe dog leg)
