About 2 years ago this ship has almost exploded in Rotterdam; becouse some cargo inside (TDI) came in contact with water. As result came a chemical reaction, that increases the volume of the product up to 5 times more in a short amound of time.
It was towed to sea and left there for several days untill the reaction was over.

dude, that is stupid.

It's the Stolt Inspiration, built i Fredrikshavn, Denmark 1997, she is 37000 DW, a very nice and good ship.

Hello! Sorry, but I do not know the name of this ship. If it helps, I can tell you that the ship was departing from Quintana Beach near Surfside Texas, almost directly south of Houston. Truthfully, this was a candid shot. I happened to have my camera when I noticed this massive ship was moving through the jetty. Thank you for watching and commenting on my video!

I like standing on the jetties at Surfside to watch the ships go out. I've seen some big mumbo jumbos, too.

I agree! The surfside jetties is a pleasant place to observe and think. And there are always so many humble people fishing! I have always been tempted to climb on top of that one light beacon perch at the very end of one of the jetty (opposite of Zeus). There are no signs saying you can't climb it, and it has a very stable looking ladder...!
