Incredible images of the sinking of the Costa Concordia,
Images: http://elpais.com
There were scenes of panic as the Costa Concordia hit a sandbar on Friday evening near the island of Giglio and listed about 20 degrees. Most people reached land by lifeboats but some swam to shore. At least 50 people have not yet been accounted for, Italian officials say, but they caution that the passenger list may not be fully up to date.

  • Who picked this music???? lol

  • The captain who did this wants keel-hauling in shark-infested waters.

  • footage taken by the captain..

  • so lucky..its near the land...

  • just like titanic just they werent stupid that wuz an accident. This gut did it on purpose and put many lives in danger and killed ppl. he needs 2g2 jail for like the rest of his life...

  • I hate that bastard who did this. He was never sopost to go that close. Now they cant get any1 else out cuz it they do there scared the boat my fall off the reef and sink... why is he so stupid... That makes me never want to go on a cruise ship again. but of coarse other captians would make this mistake like captian stupid (aka Francesco Schettino)

  • @ri2kh4n They first hit rocks at 8:30 at night... Not sure where you're getting your information from, cause it definitely wasn't day... The only reference people had were the lights of the city in the bay.

  • @ri2kh4n being near the coast saved them (btw if the ship had stayed away from coast since the beginning it wouldn't have sinked) the similarities with titanic exist, they both hit something (rock/iceberg) and in both the crew lied to the passengers to prevent a dangerous panic. And in both this happened because someone wanted to show off. (there are passengers who said that the moments before they hit the rock, the musicians were playing Titanic's theme song .__. I hope this was a lie)

  • @ri2kh4n I agree, but I must correct you, it was night, so it was dark, and it's winter so water was cold, not probably so cold as titanic's but cold enough that a man died for the shock of diving in the water, In a different situation the victims would had been 4000, fortunately the ship didn't sink completely because they were near the coast as you stated, so they managed to stay up there waiting for help and the rescues went there quickly.
