This is just awful, no one should have to experience something like this. As a united world, we need to make an investment in travel infrastructure.

Re: Boating Disaster in the Democratic Republic of Congo
The boat went under because of the excessive weight in combination with the terrible unbalance weight concentration. The lack of weight distribution at the center of the vessel doomed this vessel. Fore-and-aft and side-to-side discrepancies were clearly an attributing factor when the vessel began listing. Sad to see all those people drown.

Like that sailboat that tipped over off of Sicily. Except much clearer video, and no billionaires on board THIS boat. Wonder if the boat later sank completely. |

100% on the owner and crew for overloading the boat to sell more tickets and then going too fast while unbalanced. smh |
