Its been more than a month since an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon oil rig killed 11 people and blew out an undersea well that continues to gush oil into the Gulf of Mexico. In the following weeks, there have been attempts to contain and control the scope of the environmental damage. But so far none have been successful. Over the weekend, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal announced he intended to proceed with plans to construct sand booms to protect his state’s shoreline — without waiting for federal approval. Meanwhile, engineers for BP are working feverishly to prepare for their “top kill” maneuver, hoping an injection of heavy mud will stop the leak. Dead sharks and dolphins are washing ashore. Crabs, turtles and birds are being found soaked in oil as the slick sloshes into Louisianas wetlands. South of New Orleans, chocolate-like globs of oil have shut down the public beach. Coast Guard officials say the spills impact now stretches 150 miles. Some scientists fear the spreading plumes will catch the ocean current to the Florida Keys and up to the eastern seaboard. Photographers’ images, some of them chillingly beautiful, can only begin to hint at the enormity of the disaster.

okay, some of them were also from how the gulf was before the disaster. There weren’t so many shoking images like I saw in other videos.
.– This doesn’t mean that I wanna say it’s a bad video. Gosh, no!
But there was still one, that shocked me so much, I can’t describe: the last one… the nest. Can you imagine what happens to the chickens when they hatch? *starts crying* I can’t believe that! And BP still didn’t properly apologized, have they?
@selearemus good for you im not going to argue with another random person over the internet. but we all have different shit.
@mrrelentless279 wrong im atheist xD
im romanian
@selearemus i guess your jewish.
@mrrelentless279 yea but he wont because hell doesn’t exist
aint my fault…the guy who fucked up everything deserves to go to hell and have his nuts cut off then put back on then recut off(repeat for ever)
lol half the bloody images are shit. a picture of a planes engine? oil pips? least show some devastation if you want your point to get across
I used to hate BP too but it’s not all that bad. Most of the oil is already gone so who cares if it ever existed. I don’t see no mo so that’s all right with me. Let’s start drilling the rest of the oil outta there cause watcha want to waste dat oil fo. Dats crazy talk ! Look people…if we don’t get that oil the other country will and that’s like stealing from our own babies. If we let that happen oil will cost us more and less food for my family. So BP, I say ” let’s drill baby drill ! “
this broke my heart
watch: crude the real price of oil
do something about it BP! i think its time tht everyone makes a video to BP… help me people. like this comment to tell others. then go to one of the BPs videos and make a video responce. if 10 people do it they wont bother if 100 ppl do it they will look if 500 ppl do it they will act. if the whole world does it they would end it.
Why did D!ck C`hainees parents call their kid “D!ck”?! They must’ve been really smart parents!

Its about big government,remember bobby jindal and volcano monitoring?
Let me refresh watch?v=6cY7xG3-s1k
Why should we have oil rig monitoring either?
@AngelWillGetYouBitch, Its an absolute HORROR, the worst part tho is WHY DID THE PREZ DO NOTHING?
gOt this infO frOm a friend.
The gulf oil-platform disaster was caused by what the Kremlin is reporting was an Israeli Submarine that launched a mini-sub with two torpedoes. The report will eventually come in that it was a N Korean sub but Obama ordered the hit in order to draw us into conflict with N Korea.

Deepwater Horizon was a fifth-generation, RBS-8D design, deepwater, dynamically positioned, column-stabilized, semi-submersible drilling rig.
They give it this big fancy name but could of easily saved us a headache and called it a 5th Generation Piece of Shit Oil Rig.
She was built in 2001 in South Korea, is owned by Transocean and was leased to BP plc until September 2013.The rig drilled the deepest oil well in history at a vertical depth of 35,050 ft and measured depth of 35,055 ft
@AngelWillGetYouBitch soon millions of humans? are you kidding?
beautiful images !
