Dramatic Video: Raging fire kills 2 on Norwegian cruise ship

[eviltobias]

Vi var på vei inn til land og vi hørte små eksplosjoner. Da vi nesten var framme så kom vi også for fort inn og koliderte med ett smell jævlig kraftig. Båten lente seg over til siden og alle trodde den skulle tippe.. (Folk som gråt også). Da den slutta å lute ble vi fort tatt ned på land. Jeg var en av de få som hjalp til med å få ned noen av folkene som var ombord.

Verste historie på hurtigruten.

[eviltobias]

Jeg var på den båten da den eksploderte. Vi var i Møre Og Romsdal da det eksploderte. Jeg var nesten i midten av båten på vei til lugaren vår da vi hørte ett kraftig smell. De som gikk i koridoren var helt forskrekket. Jeg løpte tilbake til familien min helt først i båten.(De hørte også eksplosjonen) Etter en kort stund lukta vi noe som brent gummi. Det begynte å komme røyk inn, så alle måtte ut av båten.. Veldig liten plass. Vi gikk ut og helt fremst. Det kom en ekkel brann-alarm. Fortsetter...

[pjvenner]

To all those saying 'JUMP!', this is off Norway, not the Bahamas. You'd be lucky to last 20 minutes in the water. It does seem strange that the crew didn't deploy the lifeboats though.

[3ggt3]

smog check?

[jimships]

Where is the CO2 systems and why is the problem not being handled from the bridge?

[a10fjet]

oh boy, how are we gonna get all that water down there, all the way up here? I cant do that!

[MatthewCayananVideo]

TITANIC 2012

[stiigern]

wtf har det vært brann på hurtigruta???!!!!!!

[sundance2005]

What the hell are they doing just standing there under the life boats???

[EwanStewartFan]

@sundance2005 do you really think a PASSENGER knows how to put a lifeboat on water? Didn't think so!

[SuperBigronnie]

God bless are norweighen friends there having such shit luck lately xxxx jei elsker deg Norway xxx

[Angxkizza545]

Sink it sink the boat now

[harr77]

Fuck cruising the industries quality has fallen off greatly they are not safe anymore.

[hanmaenen]

@harr77 And tomorrow you will get into your car and face the much greater dangers of road traffic without the blink of an eye. This accident says nothing about the safety of the shipping industry. Accidents do happen. I have booked a Christmas cruise on the Midnatsol, and I will certainly not do what you probably would do: cancel the trip. My condolences for the families of the crew members who died.

[harr77]

@hanmaenen Okay just mentioning that lots of cruising accidents have been occurring lately lets take it down a notch chief.

[swminnesotatrappin]

jump off reatards

[Fuxser]

@Norwegian733

Skal ej bare drepe morra di og faren din?

Hvem bryr seg, det er bare to stykk!

[desertfeathers]

Good lord baby jesus!

[vaidisovaismine]

What a terrible year this is developing into for Norway, deaths followed by deaths...

[Norwegian733]

@vaidisovaismine For noe selvmedlidende tull. Det er to stk. Hadde vi snakket om 300, så kunne vi snakket.

[vaidisovaismine]

@Norwegian733 So you mean the two lives were worthless? What kind of Norwegian are you trying to be? It really is a shame that you have "Norwegian" in your name! It doesn't suit your behaviour at all.

[Norwegian733]

@vaidisovaismine What an idiot. Where did I write 2 lifes were worthless you dumb fuck?

You are pittying yourself hoping people will feel sorry for you. Look around - thousands of people are dying in accidents and other tragic reasons every fucking day, and you claim Norway is struck really hard because of this?? Pathetic.

And why the hell do you even answer me in english? I`ll use your own frame; what kind of norwegian are you??

[vaidisovaismine]

@Norwegian733 Hahaha, you really felt that bad? Don't know what you're talking about mr Norwegian, but Google Translator is always your best friend :) I don't understand why you reacted like a dumbass, but what I originally meant to say was that so many deaths in one single year compared to the total population of Norway is unusual. But the July incident alone took nearly 90 lives...

[vaidisovaismine]

@Norwegian733 ... Whatever, 2011 will be a remarkable year for Norwegian history. And to clarifiy; I am not a Norwegian, or neither I feel that bad for your people and country. See ya, retard!

[Burnz2much]

Job openings!

[3rewster]

The lifeboats are for display only.

[Zosysash]

бедные люди...

[keyholeartists]

Vouchers are on the way ... we dont need your adress coz you are being constantly monitred ... Welkom to the New World Order. Show me your ticket :-)

[keyholeartists]

Fuxachem I hope the passengers are ok

[dowhatuwill]

@keyholeartists Umm I'm guessing the 2 that died are not OK.

If i was one of the others I'd be wanting my money back, or at least a discount voucher for my next cruise.

[wahahn]

Fucking Norwegians! They dug up The Thing too!

[spongah]

JUMP!

[TheHitherto]

I am a little puzzled this got so much attention outside our borders. I can see why the terrorist attack two months ago created worldwide headlines, but this incident, albeit serious for those involved, was hardly that significant news in a global perspective.

[santran]

The captain was drinking ØL

[RimK5000]

FUCKIN JUMP

[LegSpreader69]

+1 internet

[OSAMAxxxxxxxxxxyz]

Just 2?

[TrollogyExpert]

DO A BARREL ROLL !!!

[yaahme]

Al Gore should have included this clip in his 24 hour BS science porn with another Man Made Global Warming result - sorry, it is a sad situation, but I could not resist to add what the world was subjected to - again from the pseudo-science cheerleader.

[luckyowl249]

In a fjord a fire may be ok., but not off-shore!

[Ageira]

Sad to see the M/S Nordlys in this state. Been on it many a time myself - seems like they've stopped it from capsizing in Ålesund for now, though. : )

[Habbosdify]

@Ageira Virkelig?

[Ageira]

@Ageira I følge NRK og flere andre kilder, ja. Kan da sjekke selv. Om du snakket om at jeg hadde vært på den flere ganger, så er det ikke så ekstraordinært å være nordmann og ha tatt Nordlys før.

[Wivanunu]

Did the ship sink?

[TheNotoriousJesus]

quick! jump to water!

[LarsFawkes]

@TheNotoriousJesus the water is very cold here in norway

[Sharkteeth08]

1:20 they are still enjoying the view though :P

[Ettoredipugnar]

No damage control party ? WTF. No fire hoses. ? Who owned the vessel? pakstan ?

[EnjoyFirefighting]

@Ettoredipugnar well it's kind of hard to get the fire hoses and and fire-fighting equipment, when the fire station on board is right next to the smoke pipes, on the level where the smoke from the fire came out

[Ettoredipugnar]

@EnjoyFirefighting Souldent they have the equipment on the engering decks ? Hose stations fire exting. ?

[EnjoyFirefighting]

@Ettoredipugnar perhaps there was also some equipment, but you don't know it looked like down there

[firepower01]

Norway just can't catch a break....

[JacoblCanada]

that must have been terrifying

[DeltaKLMPilot]

And not I have to find sabaton1231's comment...

[jonahfox]

Seems like an inside job.

[AlienFreak69]

damn ice bergs

[187SicknesS]

wheres the death?

[Friss99]

Ships CO2 emissions are way too high. Just look the smoke that comes out from a chimney. Where are green communists?

[IceSurfbumb]

try the life boats

[ITSbigwillystyle]

THEYRE SURROUNDED BY WATER BUT THERE'S A RAGING FIRE ON BOARD! OH THE IRONY!!

[EnjoyFirefighting]

@ITSbigwillystyle gets even better: the fire station on board is right next to the smoke pipes.

[TCfoxs]

@ITSbigwillystyle

It happens quite often.

[bkr360]

False flag for Norway since the latest problems...

[TheNova1960]

Maybe it was a nuke from Iran? 

[DancingDesman]

Why does RussiaToday always have the best footage of this type of thing?

[MissileD11]

I am surprised the Kremlin....I mean RT has not blamed the United States for this incident.

[prjerry7]

@MissileD11 don't give them any ideas

[cofa74]

wtf is uo with this ship acciedents

[declaration963]

ups, sorry i just make a barbeque and.....

[JMMT7022801]

This totally reminds me of the Trade Towers burning on 9/11/01. It was probably an inside job.

[NyCFrEsH100]

@JMMT7022801 yea everything tragic that happens is automatically an inside job

[firebird0u812]

Must be a cummins under the hood.

[AbdulNasirkonopka]

Hey why did nobody go take the rescue

[EquipaPatriot]

I'm guessing this fire originated in the engine room since smoke is coming out of the smoke stacks.

[dragon00749]

@EquipaPatriot

Why are you guessing..!? Video description already says that..!!! "passengers had to evacuate the ship after the blaze broke out in the engine room"

[EquipaPatriot]

@dragon00749 I read the description, but I must have skimmed over that part.

[zigyzigy13]

Where is the next MOSSAD?

[Kevin19700]

An explosion and subseqent fire took the lives of at least two crew meembers. Thee "Nordlys" is currently docked, the fire is out and she is listing at 10 degrees. There is a possibility that the water cooling system for the engines has been damaged and that water is intruding into the burned out engine room. Divers have noted bulges in the hull plates but no actual holes have been noticed. For those with direct satelite reception, you can watch live coverage on NRK1 or possibly NRK2.

[habatrosh]

titanic 2012 !!!!!!

[Fredrik1ST]

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

90% of RT's commenters shouldn't even be allowed on the internet.

R.I.P. and my condolences to the deceased's friends and family.

[2tur]

Aww. :(

[Shipsimvids]

Shut up with this nastycoment it died two in this accident...

[capucchan8]

that sucks

[gary97209]

I hope the whole thing doesn't pancake into the sea. :)

[1beinki]

It's just a flesh wound. I've had worse.

[Zyworski]

I don't see any steam in that smoke, that fire is running free.

[Parapon3ra]

Where there's smoke, there's delicious meat...

[tedmaulz]

*waits for the free fall collapse*

[qpae123]

Nato should bomb it to save the people from a slow death ! XD

[washington542]

Muitos certamente estão chorando pela perda de duas vidas. O mínimo que podemos fazer é respeitar as perdas.

[OghamTheBold]

Good job the captain was not drunk - drunk people do strange things - he might have rolled the boat to put out the flames

I repeat - nobody was drunk

[Devilock79]

Not those damn Christian terrorists again...

[WowEvanwoW]

looks like there was norway out

[lukeyboy118]

it was dem mooolims dat dun it!

[cabooses1fan]

Did you turn the coffee pot off?

[Redsage1122]

is my poptart done yea, OHH SHITTT!!!!

[Sovietassbuster]

WTF is wrong with all of you, 2 guys die and you make jokes about the incident?.

Retards 12 years old chilldren with internet.

[comradetirer]

what a bad year for norway

[Skudgeboy]

C'mon.... we all know it was HAARP folks.

[svettsprekk]

@Skudgeboy no it was the jews -_-

[McClaren15]

It's funny how they have the submarines on the sides and they arent lowering them. Fucking retards

[Fredrik1ST]

@McClaren15

Living less than 1 km from the harbour I can tell you this much:

1. Those aren't submarines, they're lifeboats.

2. They're about to be lowered in the video, hence why the passengers are lined up along them. Right now they are all in safety, at a local hotel.

You could've kept those last words for yourself.

[Dookiedolf]

@Fredrik1ST I wouldnt let comments from the likes of McClaren15 bother you.

Most of the comments are from stupid little schoolboys.

.

Im sure some of them may grow up to be sensible adults.

[admiralcrash1]

Linked to al-qaida.



[hospitaler808]

someone fucked up.

[TCfoxs]

Looks like NATO...

*puts on sunglasses*

...tried to save them.

YEEEAAAAH!!!

[adamgreen222]

Uncontrolled fire below decks, ship rudderless and adrift with the tide, yet no lifeboats even set to deploy. I wonder how many thousands of gallons of fuel is onboard and how quickly that cruise ship could go down if an explosion breached the hull.

[mymiddleleg1]

why the fuck was no one letting down the life boats

[A7S8A6D]

Blame the Muslims.

[KDashPerfect]

A fire on a boat ? Surprisingly the boat didn't collapse at the speed of free fall

[JermStone]

@KDashPerfect

I see what you did thar!

[DigitalDNA]

@KDashPerfect Unfortunately, only a few will understand that.

[stupideuropeanss]

@KDashPerfect That is because a fucking plane did not crash into it and it

is not a building and it does not have a cement floor to cave in.

[xaxawehn]

@stupideuropeanss ahahahahahhahahahha an aeroplane

[Stealthsuit07]

@stupideuropeanss Or maybe because it isn't subject to controlled demolition. Besides, KDash was probably referring to WTC7, which didn't get pierced by a plane.

[stupideuropeanss]

@Stealthsuit07 With a controlled demoltion you need a consistent

sound of multiple explosion going off. With the videos of building 7

there were no sounds of explosinons going off.

[analyzingfunny]

@KDashPerfect You are correct my friend. We have discovered a new branch of 9-11 physics called, "the kerosene-effect". Just like in the WTC 1 and 2, all we need is fuel to cut steel to perfect 26 foot beams. By all means that boat should chopped to pieces. More importantly, buildings now collapse into its own footprint all because of kerosene. Do you want to go into business with me demolishing buildings with jet fuel/kerosene with our new-found 9-11 knowledge?

[zxctzs]

@analyzingfunny

It doesn´t cut through steel,,,it weakens it ,and then it just magically explodes aha

[LegSpreader69]

@analyzingfunny that is very "innovative" that kerosene effect.

[5T34LTHcamoT4NK]

@KDashPerfect ya i know, kinda ironic huh ;P

[santran]

@KDashPerfect I don't get it?

[KDashPerfect]

Welcome to reality

[DrClawman4]

this does not look like a fun cruise ship

[froet213kil]

2 people just died, and others who still live happily in front of their laptop make jokes about it. what a wonderful world isn't it?

[analyzingfunny]

@froet213kil look, all we are saying is, this was inside job, and the boat should collapse at free-fall speeds, and be cut into perfect 26 foot beams. Kerosene is some powerful shit. Did you not read the 9-11 commission's report? We have a new branch of physics called, "the kerosene effect". You should really get with the times, and not be so stupid about this new science of kerosene that turns buildings and ships to dust. I wonder if that ship will be molten for 30 days like at the WTC?

[Seneta0fficial]

2 people die and everyone makes jokes.....

[MarijnMoritz]

Israel is behind this, they were afraid the boat would go to Gaza..

[4vermin]

Every night in my dreams

I see you, I feel you

That is how I know you go ooooooooon

[biita05]

the ships name is Nordlys,,or Northern Lights. Hurtigruten is just the line of ships. Hurtigruten means fast route.

[ALITHAARTIST10]

well done making jokes when 2 people died! really nice

[bastardusnorvegius]

who let breivik go?

[ferdin12]

Fire on a boat while its in the ocean? I wonder how they gonna get water to put out the flames..

[thaGkillah]

@29billyclementine

thanks now my life is complete =D

P.S. höhö

[4vermin]

It is hard to masturbate to this video

[InCMPunkWeTrust]

Think this was another Israel attack?

[stretch34318]

2011 Cannabis cup held on cruise ship.

[emhean]

Hahahahhaah :D

[azascan]

This fucken sucks.....I haven't heard ANY good news in months....WTF...

[m0mbuster]

@thaGkillah stup...

[bradq]

that smoke is very deadly from what I understand

[xBzarr]

Daum

[yuriythebest]

the ships name is "hurtigruten" - of course things will go wrong

[hoosierhiver]

Looks like NATO tried to save them

[sabaton1231]

@hoosierhiver 2 people are dead and you crack a joke about NATO? who are you, american FFS?

[zx169]

@sabaton1231

Around 160,000 people die every DAY. According to you, we must never ever crack jokes

[sabaton1231]

@zx169 is people dying the only form of humor to you? seriously? are you that fucked you can't see anything funny outside of death? the dead she be respected, not disrespected. jokes are part of humanity and can't be stopped, but it is not ones place to piss on a grave in the name of humor!

[zx169]

@sabaton1231

Dude, you don't know these people and more so, you really don't care about them.. really... It is a tragedy for their friends and families yes but this is life there are freakin 7 BILLION of us, ALL with problems. Why don't you go and sympathize with all of them? The world is messed up as it is, we need more positive energy like humor.. And who the hell said I find death funny? I find YOU funny though...

[kajjagoogoo]

@hoosierhiver They weren't delivering aid by any chance, were they?

[Terje1337]

@hoosierhiver omg, I laughed!

Am I a bad guy?

[lukeyboy118]

@hoosierhiver HAHAHAHAHA

[blackeagle681]

@hoosierhiver haha i thought the same
