Mol Comfort Splits in two!

http://gcaptain.com/mol-comfort-incident-photos/ I find it fascinating how a ship like this can simply split down the middle! Some of those pictures are amazing! Surely this is a very rare occurrence?

Fascinating shots alright yeah sure lower a lad down the side with a welder and a few checkerboard plates of metal or even better duct tape it you can do anything with duct tape. Amazing to see, is that becasue the ships "back" was broken so all the stresses were on the metal seams itself then I wonder and was it caused by bad weather etc or incorrect loading.

She's a total loss now.

What could have started a fire in the bow section?
