At the time of writing, the ship is slipping further over and rescue attempts have been suspended. Many people are still missing and presumed dead. It is amazing that so many arrived at the nearby port safely.
Costa Concordia
Cruise liners get bigger and bigger every year, and now hold several thousand passengers, plus many hundreds of staff. How they manage to stay upright is a mystery to me. They all seem "top heavy" to me.
However much money I had, this is not something that appeals to me, and after this catastrophe it is completely off the list!
