Doesn't say where it was. I expect the captain was Greek.

Or a grey disguised as a Greek.

I don't know why, but this reminds me of a helicopter "crash opera" video I have a link to:

I know it's not PC and there were probably fatalities, but it cracks me up every time I watch it.

Absolutely hilarious

It happens more often than you'd think.

As an example, in the waters surrounding Britain where the one man bridge watch is generally employed on most short sea and coastal shipping routes, an average of six ships a year go aground purely as a result of the watch-keeper falling asleep, becoming incapacitated or being absent from the bridge. Since 1993, sixty groundings have occurred for the same reasons.

What with coastal erosion, rising sea levels, tsunamis, and now the fear of ships I'm really glad I never bought that guesthouse in Blackpool after all.

It was a Norwegian ship and it hit a house on a canal in the Netherlands. Captain dozed off, apparently.
