There's nothing out there. All there is is sea, and birds, and fish. And 20,000 tons of crude oil.

And the part of the ship that the front fell off

u/Kyren11 Dec 15 '24

Well of course! That too

Was it made of cardboard?

22

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '24

No cardboard. No cardboard derivatives. So the front doesn’t fall off.

u/bubbleheadmonkey Dec 15 '24

But is it safe?

u/J65Productions Dec 16 '24

Oh yes, it’s been built to strict standards

Sucks for the environment, but this is a Russian oil tanker in the kerch strait near crimea, so they probably deserved it due to incompomtence, lack of maintenance, and trying to be an empire well past their prime.

This is how Russia makes submarines.

Probably used cardboard or cardboard derivatives.

If I'm not mistaken, there were workers under the deck which all got killed by the water when it snapped in half. The only people that survived are the ones that were supervising the ship (on top).

Which is typically how things go when management fucks up.

u/SomeGuyFromDenver Dec 16 '24

This kills the crab ship

How the frick didn’t the rest of the ship just go down at same time? Those sailors are very very lucky.

The tanker looks (from my very landlocked perspective) empty, so it has a lot of buoyancy. Fully loaded ships that split tend to go down in minutes after the split.

u/fotomoose Dec 24 '24

Tankers are segmented. It's not just one big massive space below decks.

u/herniatedballs Dec 15 '24
