Just so everyone knows.....winds did not lodge that ship. If that is the "news" you are getting, consider alternative news sources.

Was it the Illuminati?

Im just going to assume the Captain was drunk on Russian vodka.

No not every hour.

It's like $1B a day.

Lloyd's List, a London-based shipping-news journal, estimated the value of cargo goods passing through the canal every day at $9.7 billion on average, with $5.1 billion traveling west and $4.6 billion traveling east.

Me thinks that canal should be a bit wider?

And I saw another at 6-10billion a week and another at 400million an hour. Not "billions per hour"

That ship is almost as long as the Empire State building is tall. The canal actually allows for 2 way traffic which surprised me.

I don't think that many commodities go through there do they? Lots of petroleum products and consumer goods. On the radio they said that many of those containers are filled with toilet paper. The radio guys were claiming it may lead to temporary shortages to the area it was being delivered to. No idea if that story is true or not.

Oh no, not that shot again!

The ships keep getting bigger anytime the canals get wider.
