You might be having a bad day, but it’s certainly not as bad as the captain of this vessel.
NOS reports that a ship with containers hit the Willemsbrug in Rotterdam, causing several containers to fall into the water.
Hans Mossleman, an eyewitness from a nearby restaurant, reported that “I just wanted to grab my phone when I heard a familiar sound”. According to him “I have lived in the area for some time and this happens every three to four years.” He managed to film the incident on his phone.
