[Closed] Costa Concordia - righting live

wish they'd go faster ! 😉

The highlights might be better viewing.

12 hours to right it. Paint dries faster.

Righting the ship is expected to take up to 12 hours.

I think I'll check back later 😉

They'd do it much faster if they strapped a few dozen jet engines to the side of it....

I could do this ship-righting malarkey.

to paraphrase a famous film producer "it would be quicker to drain the med" 😉

That was my thought too Klunk 🙂

i quickly clicked on the link thinking "oh no, i hope i haven't missed it" 💡

This is even worse than the "very slowly run over by a road roller" scene from a Fish Called Wanda!

Still more exciting and unexpected than watching the X factor though.........

It seems a bit like when they lifted the Mary Rose in the Solent back in the early 80s.

I remember our history teacher making us watch it for an hour - sheesh that was boring!

Are they planning on doing a Benny Hill style speeded-up version when they're done?

Where Captain gets chased around the slimy decks by scantly clad lovelies?

they'll have to drag him out of a lifeboat first.

unbelievable that its taken so long to get to this point!

Are they planning on fixing it or scrapping it?

It's going to the scrappys

A pile of dogdy transit pickups driven by Irishmen sitting dockside just waiting and ready

I wonder if the passengers get any personal belongings back which can be traced such as luggage, items in room safes etc. or if it all belongs to the salvage company?

Going for scrap. Eventually.

Surely wins the award for dullest live streamed event of all time. Ship unsinks very slowly. Still better than looking at this project plan.
