the boat that is clogging the waterway is one of the largest ships ever built.
the cargo on that boat, and more importantly, the cargo on the hundreds of slightly smaller boats, is not something you fuck around with.
this shit is all strict and by the book, there is protocol.
whats crazy is these ports and canals all have native pilots that are familiar with the waterway, before entering an area like this a boat that literally says "pilot" on the side of it drives up to the container ship that is about to enter, and takes control of the boat.
so the person who did this got on that boat just before it happened.
then they drew a giant GPS dick, then curved to one side and slammed it into the other.
the area-expert pilot sped up, then quickly hugged the left bank then a hard right into the embankment, wind doesn't pull you in one direction then push you in the exact opposite.
and they did this in one of the only spots narrow enough to clog both lanes of traffic.
it was intentional and they wanted the world to see it.
no
this is trillions of dollars.
