That is NOT going to rub out

This video is nearly silent until the last 20 seconds or so. Apparently, a ferry in the Canary Islands had a steering engine failure---went to full port rudder---and although they tried to slow it and dropped the anchor (you can see it dragging)--that wasn't enough to stop it from smashing into a pier/wharf.

I loved how it hit the only part of the wall where there were vehicles and equipment and stuff.

Watching it, I couldn't help but imagine Patrick Stewart jiggling around in his chair and shouting "brace for impact!"

What's going on with the windows in the center of the ship between 1:42 and 1:47?

That would be the sun reflecting off them, because it's a boat, and it's in the water.

That's what I thought at first, but I re-watch it a couple of times because something just didn't look right. I watched it frame by frame and it doesn't look like a reflection. You can see the sun reflecting off the other windows in the front and back and even the middle windows as yellow flashes, but the whole time the windows in the middle of the ship are white like they have blinds closed behind them. Then suddenly at about 1:42 they seem to open, then close about 5 seconds later.
