The ship was the old FF(frams). I was there and now I have several types of cancer. No disability pay alloted for any ills.
you have like 30 seconds to sit there and wait for a 300ft wave to come your way! Crazy! Maybe you could survive in an airtight chamber -- if the ship ever resurfaced...
Totally amazing video, what a great explosion
