Quote:
At least three people were killed and scores remain unaccounted for as a giant cruise ship keeled onto its side after running aground near the Italian island of Giglio on Friday night, local emergency officials said Saturday.
Quote:
On the ship, there were 4,234 passengers and crew on board, said Linardi. Of those, he said 52 of the passengers are children.









I'm going to guess a rock like this will ruin almost any ships day:


Links to an Italian website that has pictures of a HUGE rock in the side of the hull:
