A brand new video of the TS Taipei shipwreck reveals the extent of the catastrophe that’s unfolding in northern Taiwan because the vessel continues to interrupt up and spill gasoline and containers into the ocean.
The ship ran aground March 10 and has been slowly breaking up, with fears that each ends might capsize at any second.
