Wrecked Oil Tanker Threatens Sicily's Coast | The Salvage Masters | Autentic Documentary

Video Description

In March 2012, a chemical tanker ran aground off the coast of Sicily, threatening a natural marine park near the UNESCO World Heritage site of Syracuse. Stormy winds and a strong current pushed the ship against the cliffs, and the 19 crew members had to be rescued by helicopter. A year later, it was finally time to remove the old steel tanker from this historic, 2,700-year-old city. The men and women entrusted with this task are today's high-tech cowboys of the seas. They operate huge machines, rappel down, and climb in dangerous environments to dispose of the oils and chemicals. It is a highly dangerous, large-scale technical task set in a breathtaking location. ______ Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@AutenticDocumentary/?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/autentic.documentary TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@autenticdocumentary Website: https://www.autentic.com Autentic Documentary is the ultimate source for captivating documentaries on a wide range of topics.
