The crew of the $1.3 million dollar yacht, The Victorian, stunned a crowd enjoying a sunny day along the Thames River by smashing into the Richmond Bridge in southwest London.
Strong currents were possibly the cause for the watery crash. The river tide came in quickly and the water levels rose to at least seven feet.
A witness to the crash told The Mirror, “We saw the boat coming and thought ‘there’s no way he’s getting through in that’.”
