Terrifying moment 300ft superyacht crashes into smaller boat leaving passengers screaming

It might be 'rich people problems' but it's still really scary

A pretty unnerving video shows the terrifying moment a 300ft superyacht crashed into a smaller boat, leaving its passengers screaming.

I mean imagine, you’re just minding your business, chilling on your little yacht on holiday (like I said, use your imagination) when an absolute monster of a boat comes straight at you.

A monster a whole three times bigger that is. The 90.1-meter Llurssen superyacht ‘Ice’ was cruising along off the coast of holiday hotspot Yalıkavak in Bodrum, Turkey, at the end of August when it crashed.

And dramatic viral videos show it seemingly going into 31.08-meter Numarine yacht ‘A.Mey’ at full speed.

Reportedly worth a whopping £84million, Ice went directly into the path of the smaller yacht.

The crash can be audibly heard as eyewitnesses watched on from dry land and the A.Mey ended up in chaos as the superyacht continued to seemingly push it along the water.

Superyacht Times reports that the extendable platforms at the stern of Ice may have been open. And this suggests that the whopper vessel might have been experiencing a technical or mechanical failure resulting in this scary collision.

Sources told the outlet that A.Mey was having to undergo repair work as the upper deck was ‘completely torn off’. A little unsurprisingly to those who have seen the terrifying moment, the vessel has apparently suffered ‘serious damage’.


In various viral videos the smaller boat is shown getting dragged a short distance by the front of Ice before being crazily spun around the port side of the superyacht.

And one video shared to TikTok in particular taken from onboard the A.Mey shows the sheer panic of the collision.

The Ice towers over as it gets closer and closer, ramming right into the littler boat and causing passengers to scream, shout and fall in the quake.

While many TikTok users slammed the incident as ‘rich people problems’, plenty agreed the ‘big boat is completely at fault’.


Others wrote: “Holy moly that was a huge boat that hit u guys hope everyone is ok.”

Many couldn’t understand how this could possibly have happened, which makes it likely people’s theory the A.Mey was anchored, while the Ice had a technical problem is true.

It doesn’t seem anyone has been reported as injured following this incident, but it’s clear the boat must be at least a little f**ked.
