It sounds like something straight out of an action movie—but this wild scene actually unfolded at the port of Nakhodka, Russia.
A tugboat suddenly went rogue, slamming full-speed into another ship before making a dramatic getaway, all of it caught on video.
Full-Speed Collision Caught on Camera
The tugboat, named Bikin, was seen on footage speeding straight toward the Solveiga, a larger vessel docked peacefully at port.
There was no sign of braking, slowing, or even swerving. The Bikin barreled into the Solveiga’s port side with full force, causing significant damage.
What makes the incident even more bizarre is what happened next—or rather, what didn’t happen.
No Apologies, No Inspection—Just a Fast Escape
Instead of stopping to check for injuries or even to assess the damage, the captain of the Bikin quickly shifted into reverse, turned the vessel around, and fled the scene.
Witnesses were left stunned as the tugboat disappeared from view, leaving behind a damaged ship and a whole lot of unanswered questions.
Authorities Launch an Investigation
Unsurprisingly, the incident didn’t go unnoticed by officials.
The Nakhodka Transport Prosecutor’s Office has officially launched an investigation to figure out what exactly went wrong—and why the captain took off.
In a statement released afterward, the Far Eastern Transport Prosecutor’s Office confirmed the incident was under review, adding that, fortunately, there was no oil spill reported as a result of the crash.
What Comes Next?
For now, authorities are digging into the details—whether it was mechanical failure, human error, or something more suspicious.
As the investigation unfolds, one thing is clear: this chaotic crash-and-run at sea has left more questions than answers.
Stay tuned as more details surface about this maritime mystery.
