$1.5 Million Yacht Plunges Nose-First Into the Ocean from Gizmodo is a true story.
That $1.5 million yacht slipped right off its sling when being lowered into the water and bam.
It ended up upside down.
Snopes.com confirmed the story.
A marketing representative with Carver Yachts confirmed that this explanation is basically correct:We are aware of this accident. The sling broke while it was being placed in the water. They are legitimate pictures that you have forwarded on to us.
Thanks Judah for the tip.
