1. I was not expecting that. Crazy!!!

2. Could we make the same thing happen unter the crimean bridge now?

3. The explosion instantly killed the 40 merchant marine sailors and 29 guards on board. It also sank a nearby ship and damaged many more. What’s left of the ship lies deep in the Philippine Sea.
