And the photographer just happened to be passing by and snapped this picture, luckily he was holding his phone horizontal.

The explosion hurled a 37-metric-ton (36-long-ton; 41-short-ton) chunk of armor plate from the ship into the battleship République moored some 210 m (690 ft) away, which caused significant damage. Splinters from the exploding ship sank a steam pinnace and killed fifteen men aboard the armored cruiser Marseillaise, nine aboard the battleship Saint Louis, six aboard the armored cruiser Leon Gambetta, four aboard the battleship Suffren, and three aboard Démocratie.

Evidently the Great Lakes are hard on ships, especially overloaded ships.

And capsizing?

Yes, and capsizing. Don't worry Griff, it's too buried here to matter.

Call it Boats Don't Bend.
The Edmund Fitzgerald found that out along with the likelihood of an over-bold
