Nice, but where was the orchestra? When a ship sinks, isn't there supposed to be an orchestra?

The sound of the salty sea dogs murmering "fúckkk" is orchestral enough for me.

The World Trade Center was somewhat efficiently hauled off to China to be recycled...

I know that's a big-ass chunk of iron in that boat- and I would parlour-assume worth breaking up an making new steel out of it? Ground it somewhere during really high tide, and cut it up and haul it off somehow or other.

Then again, maybe I better stick to giving flyboy free, outside advice on how to operate his aerplanie and leave Per alone on his shipeeee descruction?

Plenty of YouTube videos out there showing beaching, and break up of ships in India and other countries.
