Chinese Cruise Ship Hits Bridge


Well, file this one under the heading of "why you need to recheck your figures more than once" department. When you make a balls up this big, generally , its a bad day. Could be worse, in the bad old days they would have just shot him and moved on to the next in command :twisted:
I suppose for the complete trifecta of fail, he could have brought the whole thing down on top of the ship, which then would capsize and sink...

That would have been one expensive bridge to replace!

So the captain forgot to figure certain conditions into his actions. D-uh!

This is not a good way for a ship to start its time of service. I wonder what this ship's maiden voyage will be like. What's Chinese for "Titanic"?
