O God, thy sea is so great and my boat is so small…
I suspect they are just trying to home, probably out of the Bay of Biscay, so they can stop vomiting their baguettes and fois grois...
More seriously; think about the advantages a submarine has over a surface ship, even one that might have a helicopter aboard (but can't safely launch or recovery it in this weather) in either running away, or trying to kill the surface ship. Even if the surface ship has a towed array (yank, tug, snap, one might think)---getting weapons on target as opposed to being the target seems like it would quite a challenge.
What are they running from?

That was awesome! I thought it was just surface exfoliation at first, which I've seen first hand (it happens every time it freezes hard), but I was WRONG! That was really cool, never seen a fault snap like that before.
Sifting.

How cool would that be to see?
Volcanic Eruption of Mount Tavurvur (shock wave included)
so minimally that far... this was pretty good from wiki:
Shock waves form when the speed of a fluid changes by more than the speed of sound.[3] At the region where this occurs sound waves travelling against the flow reach a point where they cannot travel any further upstream and the pressure progressively builds in that region, and a high pressure shock wave rapidly forms.
Shock waves are not conventional sound waves; a shock wave takes the form of a very sharp change in the gas properties on the order of a few mean free paths (roughly micrometers at atmospheric conditions) in thickness. Shock waves in air are heard as a loud "crack" or "snap" noise. Over longer distances a shock wave can change from a nonlinear wave into a linear wave, degenerating into a conventional sound wave as it heats the air and loses energy. The sound wave is heard as the familiar "thud" or "thump" of a sonic boom, commonly created by the supersonic flight of aircraft.

Amen brother. I just find the whole thing sad.
The guy obviously wasn't well. Maybe he was an asshole in life, maybe he just snapped one day. Either way, it would have been nice if he could have gotten the help he clearly needed.
And just for the record, part of that is to spare the cops. I disagree with artician and I don't think they'll rest easy after that.
My final thought: One mitigating factor with this specific happenstance in lieu of your general point is that this guy very obviously wanted to die and wanted those cops to kill him. He was apparently doing whatever he had to to get the cops to kill him.
Bottom line we can all agree on: it sucks.
The Coup -- Magic Clap
[Hook x2]
Clap
Magic Clap
It's like a hotwire, baby
When we put it together
When the sparks fly
We'll ignite the future forever
This is the last kiss Martin ever gave to Coretta
It's like a paparazzi picture when I flash my Beretta
I got scars on my back
The truth on my tongue
I had the money in my hand when that alarm got rung
We wanna breathe fire and freedom from our lungs
Tell Homeland Security
We are the bomb
[Hook x2]
Hurry up, get in, close the do'
This here the meeting for the overthrow
Waiting on that concrete rose to grow
Doing lines that ain't quotable
Counting up all that dough you owe
You ain't sposed to know its opposable
We are not disposable
Muscle up kid
We got blows to throw
Til the folks have risen
There'll be no decision
We make the motor move
They chauffer driven
Right now we can't shine right like a broken prism
I figured out the 14th is a broke amendment
[Hook x2]
Good evening
Tonight we bring to you
Worn out streets that'll sing to you
.45 shells that'll dance to the beats
Stomachs so loud it'll cancel the speech
Checks that vanish if you blink an eye
Grace getting locked in the clink to die
A salary cap on a birth certificate
Notarized lies that burst in triplicate
Morning prayers for the car to start
A man and a whiskey in a heart-to-heart
Hope in a track suit to flash and run
While agony chases with a badge and gun
Poetry shouted from the squeal of the bus breaks
Hands in the air try to feel for an escape
Flash in my eyes like candid snaps
When we slap back, it's the magic clap
Panama Canal ship accident
Probably a cable on the left (right from our POV) snapped (or winch failed). People on deck seem to run there as if something important was happening there. It would also explain the movement of the ship.
Daily Show: Australian Gun Control = Zero Mass Shootings
@harlequinn, you do realise that NZ actually has quite sensible gun laws? You can own semi-auto rifles and so on but to do so you need a firearms licence. This includes not only a police check, but the cops will actually come to your house and check that you have adequate storage provisions for your guns. On top of that
To me those are perfectly reasonable and sensible restrictions.
@scheherazade, ah yes, the libertarian argument. I want a gun and fuck everyone else.
Kids getting shot at school? Fuck 'em, not my problem.
Random nutjob mows down a bunch of people in California? Fuck 'em, not my problem.
The fact is that guns do cause harm. The "people kill people" argument is beyond infantile. Of course, people kill people.... with a gun. It's a lot harder to go on a mass killing spree armed with a stick.
Here are the indisputable facts:
- There are some sick people out there. Some are just fucked up, some are in need of help.
- Sometimes these people snap.
- Sometimes when they do, they get a gun and kill a bunch of other people.
- If they didn't have a gun, the harm would be less.
I'm assuming no-one disputes those facts.
Now there are two solutions to this:
- Pro-gun advocates take the position that citizens need guns to defend themselves from this kind of situation. They often argue that instead of taking guns away from everyone, we should focus on either helping the mentally unbalanced or stopping them by shooting them.
- Gun control advocates take the position that if the shooter didn't have access to a gun in the first place, then maybe the whole mess would be avoided or at the very least minimised.
To me, it's a simple matter of practicalities. Option 1 is simply not working. We're decades (possibly centuries) away from completely understanding mental illness, that's if we achieve that at all. Meanwhile, crazy/insane/evil people are still going on shooting rampages.
And stopping them after the fact? That's pretty cold comfort to the people that have already been killed.
I am genuinely perplexed as to how people don't understand this.
Gun control works. In every other developed country in the world, there are reasonable and sensible laws restricting firearm ownership, and there is nothing like the kind of insane shootings we see on a regular basis in the US.
No-one is arguing that all guns should be taken away. No-one is saying you can't hunt or target shoot or even defend your home if necessary (although again, in the civilised world, most of us have no need for that).
But jesus, maybe you don't need an AR-15 with a massive clip. And is it that unreasonable to check to see if someone is mental or criminal before selling them a gun?
Apparently, in the US, it is.
Fully customizable smart phone & 3D printed case
of course, it could be used in reverse as well, a camera sized tool that snaps onto a larger device as a controller or a hard drive, or just the computing power that drives the larger device. I mean it's a portable computer with endless connections and possibilities...
Fully customizable smart phone & 3D printed case
Imagine the components that could be made though.
From Cameras to speakers. this style of device could be the next wave towards a true tri-corder device.
One device that transforms to the niche of every user. fully customizable hardware.
The best part is the consumer can upgrade the parts they care about the most. One person may remove the camera, the next will insert a 50megapixel zoom lens camera. It's up to the developing community to devise the components but the entire concept is sound!
Think of a musician, maybe they could snap in a mini keyboard, or an advanced Mic, or maybe some Bose speakers.
A doctor could snap in a mini scanner or blood testing device.
An engineer could have tools that he may need or there could be tools aimed at any job or hohby out there.
Fully customizable.....
Record Rainfall Allows Kayaker To Hit The Falls
Wow, snapped that paddle good.
The things we do to attract the ladies......
Interesting sound ... like a metallic bongo [snaps fingers in approval]
A 'mouse trap' trick shot you have to see to believe .
This could be the first video ever and maybe only video in a *nosurpriseending channel.
I kept expecting some kind of unintended result, like the trap snapping on a finger or her missing the pompom and shooting the camera instead.

World's Fastest : 270.49 mph Hennessey Venom GT
I like to get my car up to 270 like this, then do the E-brake and snap a U-ey
