Cargo ship stuck in Suez Canal is 400m-long, 16m-deep and not moving.
A cargo ship the length of the Empire State Building remains trapped in the world’s most important shipping lane. This is how long it could be there.
There is a temptation to view the stranding of giant cargo ship the Ever Given in comical terms. You’ve probably seen the memes already.
Or maybe you’ve taken the deep dive into the wacky conspiracy theory pedalled by Qanon that the 200-tonne, 400m vessel is being used for child sex trafficking by Hillary Clinton.
Yes, that really is a conversation being had on messageboards among conspiracy theorists.
Or perhaps you were drawn in by the gigantic, crude rendering of the male anatomy that eagle-eyed shipwatchers pointed out when analysing the ship’s path through the Red Sea.
All of that is a distraction from the reality that the situation has implications for far flung parts of the world.
To put into context what it means to have the container ship blocking the narrow strait that connects the Mediterranean with the Red Sea, you first have to understand why the Suez Canal is so important.
IMO, I think it was done deliberately (how do you steer a massive ship like this to run it almost aground in a narrow passage where all you have to do is go straight. You could do it sleeping?) for a number of reasons. Block a major thoroughfare for shipping. With that being said, to hike the price of oil up and pay more at the pump. Puppet mastery at play or some ships Captain seriously has a problem with the meth. What do you think?

On a non conspiracy note, I think people can be that retarded. Maybe the water level was down or it needed dredging. I dunno.

Suez Canal traffic jam data shows scale of the crisis
The world is watching a traffic jam of epic proportions grow bigger and bigger as efforts to free a 200,000-tonne cargo ship go absolutely nowhere.
The world’s most costly traffic jam continues to hold the public’s attention as the 400m-long MV Ever Given remains firmly wedged on the bank of the Suez Canal.
But without a livestream of the efforts to refloat the 200,000-tonne vessel that veered off course and ran aground in a sandstorm on Tuesday, it can be hard to stay up to date with the latest developments.
To fill that space, interactive maps are showing the sheer number of vessels lined up at both ends of the canal waiting in hopes that earth movers can somehow expel 20,000 cubic metres of sand around the bow of the ship.

The wind must have been cat 5 hurricane to move the 200,000 tonne ship. Most likely it was the wind from Biden's arse that knocked him over. The butterfly effect.

I think that shit is coming from his mouth. Had anyone told him he needs some toilet paper to wipe his mouth?
