Not at all. I finally went and looked at it. Wow.

It's like one of those stunts in an adventure movie, like laying a motorcycle on its side to get under a semi, or tipping a car up on two wheels to squeak through a narrow alleyway. Amazing. I can totally imagine the skipper pulling an "I meant to do that" afterward, pulse pounding in his ears, astonished that the universe let him get away with that. Can you imagine the next day? Trying to tell yourself that it really happened? Holy crap! Those tugs are BIG. And HEAVY.

Wow.

I'm impressed. Can you tell?

Wow.
