I viewed that video many years ago. It was a miracle. The skipper had to do his laundry right after the incident!

Aw, that's happened to me many times. Only, I wasn't driving a tugboat, wasn't in the water, and I hit my head so hard that it *seemed* I was still afloat.

They were well prepared too. Only the captain stayed on board, the crew were on the barges. All safety doors were closed. And there was concrete in the bottom to make the boat self-righting.

"Weebles wobble but they don't fall down" - Weebles have a heavy weight at the bottom that keeps them upright - ths tug had several tons of cement ballast in the bottom of her hull. Imagine being the guy driving the boat - who was still at the sticks when she came up.

"The drawbridge did not open in time", says the description on KZitem. That was not the problem. The barges were deliberately pushed through a fixed part. The safest way. The tug was disengaged and was to go through the lifting section, but that maneuver went wrong.
