Watch: Big Ship Crashes Into Beach for Scrapping and Recycling

The M/F Ostend Spirit, also known as the MS Pride of Calais, was a ferry that spent most of its life doing the shuttle route across the English Channel. She’ll now be completely broken down, piece by piece, for scrapping and recycling at a ship breaking yard in Turkey.
