In a dramatic maritime incident off the coast of Palma, Mallorca, Spain, a powerful storm unleashed its fury on August 27, 2023, causing a cruise ship to collide with an oil transport tanker. The vessel in question, P&O Britannia, found itself at the mercy of relentless winds that snapped its mooring ropes, propelling it towards the neighboring tanker and ultimately onto the unforgiving rocks. The force of the collision was captured on video by @millermanuk, an eyewitness aboard the ship. Despite the harrowing encounter, reports indicate that the integrity of the cruise ship remained intact, and a team of tugboats swiftly maneuvered to guide it back into position.
