It’s not your fault… what happened. I know. Um, what? Actually, you don’t know. It’s totally your fault. But… we were kids, and it was awful.

STATION ELEVEN — 1.10 Unbroken Circle

[mybodywakesup]

KIRSTEN and JEEVAN in Station Eleven, 1x10: “Unbroken Circle” No one finds people from before. So it matters, getting anybody back.

I have no idea what's going on here and the notes aren't helping, but I'm afraid I'm going to find out.

The Evergreen is a cargo ship that got itself stuck in the Suez Canal. It’s effectively blocked all traffic because its almost completely perpendicular to the canal.

It’s blocking something like 10% of the world’s cargo carriers right now (at least that’s what I read this morning).

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

i get so freaked out by like. pictures of really big rope

[clintwaffle]

I’d like to say that’s normal but I’m a frayed knot

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

i’m so fucking annoyed at this, just for that you don’t get photos of the rope

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

i changed my mind, this is just too horrifying not to share

it’s called a Hawser and is the thick cable or rope used for towing/mooring a ship

in conclusion, i have nightmares beyond description

[arithmeticanimaniac]

NO it would NOT be cool

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

well i fucken disagree

[goeswiththeflo]

@scumrunner do you have any cursed facts about hawsers to share ?

As a fiber nerd, i am personally very enthusiastic about them….

[scumrunner]

Ohhohohoho DO I EVER. Meet the “snapback zone,” not an area with cool hats, but instead the unintuitive range at which a hawser can kill you if it breaks under tension.

[cloud-and-proud]

What if we kissed in the snap-back zone? 😳 😳 😳

[talus-the-broken]

I don’t think you guys understand how much force this is, a tow rope used to move a 20 foot boat snaps under tension with enough force to dent metal, shatter glass and seriously injure anyone in its way. A Hawser on the other hand… Well I’ve seen a concrete pier with a chuck the size of a sedan ripped out of it by a line failure, and anecdotally, I’ve heard of a 2 ton heavy cargo forklift being skidded sideways, then knocked over. These lines snap with enough force to noticably dent the hull armor of navy ships.

This is a line designed to hold in place a moving object that can be easily in excess of 10000 tons. AND THEY CAN BREAK FROM THAT TENSION ALONE.

THESE THINGS ARE TERRIFYING RUBBER BANDS FROM HELL.

[derpyhawker]

oop dont wanna get your ass snapped with one of those

[ro-a-r]

Apparently a good way to prevent these types of accidents is with a snap-back arrestor.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

holy shit this was both fascinating and terrifying. looking forward to the nightmares :)

No big deal just Angelina Jolie and Michelle Pfeiffer looking like a married couple.
