The boat's surely at fault here, right?


Level_Rule_7911

I'd say it's the camera person for turning away.


Deathrace2021

Agreed, a longer video was posted yesterday, but it's at a much further distance away


w_a_w

Absolutely. The person with the least ability to steer gets the ROW.


GravitationalEddie

ROW, ROW, ROW yer boat Out the fuckin' waaaaay!


w_a_w

Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily A prop just hit my brain!


xWOBBx

Did anyone get hurt? I hope Kevin O'Leary was driving the boat this time.


w_a_w

Yes, from what I've read, 2 of 4 from the boat sustained non-life threatening injuries. Plane was ok.


Top-Reference-1938

Yup, COLREGS pretty clear on that. Yet I am getting downvoted in the other thread for saying this.


CaptSnafu101

The plane definitely had the right of way, but i could see the pilot being at least partially at fault in this scenario. The right of way hurts sometimes...


veganthreshershark

The pilot is in no way at fault. Boats ALWAYS give way to float planes.


ETVG

If the plane has the status of boat when it's on the water I think not. It came from the right and both are motor driven vessels with the same nautical status which gives the one coming from the right the right of way, which is the boat. Unless there's a local excemption on that country's rules.


curiouslyignorant

The plane always has the right of way. They do not have the same status.


Sweaty_Secretary_802

Which would make the plane the larger vessel for which the smaller boat has to give way no?

No. That harbor is specifically dedicated to sea planes and they obviously have total right of way and pleasure boats aren't even supposed to be there from what I read. This is the equivalent of driving your car across the runways at JFK Airport... The moron in that boat, if he survived, is about to be in a *world of shit.*


CaptSnafu101

Ya, but if there was a car on the runway at jfk, the pilots wouldn't take off. Coal harbour isn't dedicated to sea planes at all. Source, i work in the port of vancouver. The boat definitely shouldn't be in front of a plane taking off but the plane shouldn't be taking off near a boat


Marijuana_Miler

That is where the planes take off from. It’s well known. My guess is that the boater was trying to get to one of the docks or the floating gas station and wasn’t following the proper path.


Elegant-Raise-9367

I see you are getting down voted for saying this too. It's not a banned area, it is a high caution zone. Plane and boat failed to maintain a proper watch, plane failed to take avoiding action in time, and so did boat. Oddly enough the boat was hit in the port side so technically they had ROW. Plane is required to keep clear of all vessels. Boat is required to keep clear of airplane operating zone. Both are at fault and both are going for a skate.


Kryptosis

Wronnng. Planes have ROW always.


Elegant-Raise-9367

Lol Let's start here "A stand on vessel does not have any right of way over any give way vessel, and is not free to maneuver however it wishes, but is obliged to keep a constant course and speed" And move to here "A seaplane on the water shall, in general, keep well clear of all vessels and avoid impeding their navigation. In circumstances, however, where risk of collision exists, she shall comply with the Rules of this part." "A WIG craft, when taking off, landing and in flight near the surface, shall keep well clear of all other vessels and avoid impeding their navigation. A WIG craft operating on the water surface shall comply with the Rules of this part as a power driven vessel."

MrPlaney

In normal water, yes, but this port is specifically designated for seaplane operation.


Odd-Collection-2575

There was another angle of this and the plane started way further back, should’ve gone airborne by that point


tremens

Sea planes take much longer to take off due to the friction and density of the water.


Cartdude2

The boat has the right of way, seaplanes are lower on the ranking, they must steer clear of other traffic


Aschvolution

I too like talking out of my ass


Cartdude2

How so? The rules of the road say that seaplanes must stay clear and are the give way vessel, but if I’m wrong please educate me


Aschvolution

[From another thread of the same event](https://old.reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/comments/1dbfxzz/sea_plane_crashes_into_boat_today_in_vancouvers/l7qwy0j/)


Cartdude2

Point 1 was valid, I didn’t know the specifics of that situation but in general seaplanes are the give way, the pecking order is Not under command Restricted in ability to maneuver Constrained by draft Fishing Sailing Power driven vessels Pilot Seaplanes Wing in ground craft


Aschvolution

I see, sorry for being rude there, I just woke up, and thought let's start the day as an asshole for some reason.


Cartdude2

No worries! 😌


Poetic_Pigeon

Fuck that camera guy, goddamnit


zmeowiez1

It's not like there was an explosion, it literally caught everything that was needed


real85monster

Terrible time for that video to finish! What happened from there, anyone have the story?

Thanks legend


Brilliant_Tonight_35

Why does the camera man always turn away at the "best" part for lack of a better word, your already recording something fucked up, let us all see the aftermath if your gonna post it


The_Charskull

It makes more sense when it’s something violent like an explosion that is near them, since fight/flight could kick in causing them to move in such a way that the camera moves with them. In this case it really doesn’t make sense. They are very far away, so no immediate danger to justify a hard flinch or jolt.

The_Charskull

Good point.


Kilsimiv

Could be subconscious aversion. But apparently, it was rhetorical


Illustrious_Car4025

Why is it human instinct to fling the camera downwards when something happens


yesterdays_poo

Because your eyes jolt up and away from your phone so you can see it yourself. You flying the phone down out.of your field of vision


Deritatium

I already saw this but from another angle. Crazy to see the same accident from different perspective, the same day.


Infinite-Condition41

Dumb accident, but I'm glad we live in a world where this is the third camera angle I've seen of this.


UnknownPT2

/killthecameraman


foxfrenzy

Downvote cus the camera looks away right when anything happens


haarschmuck

Why does every idiot filming turn the camera away when something happens?


winter0rfall

Ugh


Icy_Chocolate_6453

I hate when people take away the camera


chipcity90

Why can't people hold their phone straight

I just hope everyone is okay.


MojoRisin762

Reports say that everyone on the plane was good, but 2 out of 4 on the boat were 'seriously injured'.


zonazog

So the plane is now down under


lord_hyumungus

Time to throw some shrimp on the baaarbie


savemysoul72

Oh shit


karutura

SEND IT!


DaddyBurton

I can tell you what happen, ain’t no stop signs.


DrunkStoleATank

GTA. Keeping under the radar to get the MC business sale done


BigD3nergy

The ocean is vast emptiness… move your boat so I can fly!


brianhot11

What exactly happened? You deliberately shut the video off early


brianhot11

I get downvoted for stating facts? Too many man babies in here, wearing diapers


TelMinz007

Maybe because not everyone is a desensitized redditor. Maybe they wanted to call for help. Maybe they didn’t want to potentially watch a bunch of people die. Maybe they aren’t a surveillance bot that records shit like a brain dead automaton.


Master-Seesaw-3567

Damn double homicide


Glittering-Count-291

Person filming sucks at it


skinnydudetattoo

I fell asleep watching the other video. Wtf did you not record it all. Why post it?


satanssweatycheeks

wtf is wrong with society? Like you are aware most sane minded people who aren’t addicted to their phones would stop filming to call 911. But nope you and the rest of trash ass society would rather let the people not get help or saved and we just sit back and record their slow deaths so you can get a good video watched in only for you to hope to the next video 30 seconds later. Seriously think hard about that dumbass take away whining why they stopped filming.


Mental_Cap7631

Exactly 😅 I’m positive that if I just witnessed a possible multi person decapitation I would drop whatever I was holding.
