Russian Ghost Ship Devoid of Any Life Except for Thousands of Cannibalistic Rats Threatens to Land Upon England
— Ace

F*** you, oceans.

This is the Telegraph.

This is a great story and I wanted to post it, just because it's fun. But note how almost everything in this is a pure speculation.

A Russian ship had been abandoned by its crew (over nonpayment for their services) in Canada. Later, storms set the ship adrift out into the Atlantic.

Everything beyond that is just sort of a big make-'em-up.

The 300ft Lyubov Orlova has been floating around the North Atlantic since being set adrift off the Canadian coast a year ago and coastguards believe a series of storms blowing in from the west have driven her thousands of miles towards UK shores, according to The Sun.

Since being abandoned by her crew, it is feared the 40-year-old Soviet vessel may have become home to hordes of rats, which would have had to eat each other to survive.

Or they could have starved. Or there could have been not too many rats in the first place.

Since we don't know, it's perfectly fair to jump to the wildest, scariest conclusions.

So, we don't know about these teeming hordes of cannibal rats, but we do know the ship is afloat and bound for the UK, right?

Well... no.

...

The 4,250-tonne shipÂ’s position remains unknown despite several attempts to find her.
In March last year satellites identified a mystery object large enough to be the ship off the north west coast of Scotland but search planes found nothing.

Salvage hunters are keen to trace the liner in order to cash in upon her £600,000 scrap value.

Pim de Rhoodes, a Belgian-based marine missions specialist who is looking for the Lyubov Orlova, told The Sun: “She is floating around out there somewhere.
“There will be a lot of rats and they eat each other. If I get aboard I’ll have to lace everywhere with poison.”

Experts believe the boat is still afloat because her four life-raft transmitters have not been set off as they would if she sunk.

Two distress beacons were activated last March but they are thought to have come from life rafts which broke away from the ship and fell into the ocean.

If I'm reading that right, they think the ship is afloat because its four life-raft transmitters did not go off, which would have happened if the ship sunk.

Only two of the beacons were activated.

So, you know: Watch out England.

Or, as the last quote of the story says:

"We must be vigilant."

7 Keep in mind that the only rats that will survive are the ones that are big enough and bad enough to take out their brethren and then feast on their corpses. Those are the rats that will make the landing.

Anybody else got some suggestions?

So there are four liferafts on the boat and their beacons have not gone off.  Except for 2 which have gone off but they think they fell off the liferafts.

 

Am I reading that right?

 

What if those are the only two beacons that worked and the others were broken?

Posted by: buzzion at January 27, 2014 03:43 PM (LI48c)

20 It is kind of odd how they make the ship like an animate object that is going to "sneak up" on England. This is more like "Event Horizon" than "Predator".

Posted by: Aetius451AD at January 27, 2014 03:43 PM (TGgNi)

21 Of course, if there are coffin-like boxes filled with dirt on board, it's probably best to keep the ship in quarantine.  And not  go on board at night.

51 Thank you Ace for pointing out that this story is about 98% conjecture masquerading as a legitimate news story. People have been breathlessly repeating this story when the only fact we can be sure of is that at one time the Lyubov Orlova was floating in the Atlantic. All other details - pretty much made up.

That said I do think we should be preparing more for a Rat Men invasion since they're unlikely to be content with a UK megacolony.

56 The likely explanation is that the rats have grown sentient and have taken over the ship and actively navigating it themselves. They only need to reach landfall to release the second Bubonic Plague!!!!!!!!

Close up of one of the men standing in the life boat, screaming "We're getting the hell out of here!" But something was left on board... Scientist/Historian guy "A fortune in Nazi gold was left behind. We are going to get it back." So they went looking for one of the only men to get off the "Orlova"... Alive... (Close up of the man from the first scene- with his hair white, working in a fishery. Think Robert Shaw in Jaws.) "If'n you want to go aboard the Orlova, you might take the gold, but you'll leave your lives." Next Summer...

89 Okay, so a tug with a Hero, a cute chick, a Nerd techno guy and a guy that we all know is going to die 15 minute in, all set sail to find this ship because the cute chick's mom needs an operation and the only money they can get is the salvage on this ship.

First show them tossing about on the waves, then a closeup of the bow wave of the ship then the tug, then the ship.

Wham they run into each other but they manage to get onto the ship before the tug goes down.

they then proceed to wander through the ship while the nerd tries to start up electronics and stuff so they can get rescued.

The red shirt guy dies mysteriously when he gets separated early on.

cue closeups of scrabbling shadows in the dark and squeaky noises.

Meanwhile the Russians are trying to find this ship because it was carrying a supply of bubonic plague virus that they were going to sell to the IRA. The board and the hero, chick and nerd proceed to hide from their squad of Spetznatz.

All comes to an end when a gigantic oversize rodent the size of Michael Moore eats the Spetznatz squad and goes after the Heroic trio but is stopped by the Canadian Coast Guard who have arrived on the scene and they blow the enraged rodent back to the hell it came from.

Of course everyone's now infected with the plague and everybody dies.

102 Experts believe the boat is still afloat because her four life-raft transmitters have not been set off as they would if she sunk. Two distress beacons were activated last March but they are thought to have come from life rafts which broke away from the ship and fell into the ocean. ===== Are the life raft transmitters different from the distress beacons? Because if not, I'm either reading this wrong or the two statements contradict each other.

110 My solution is to land 10 people on it  but the women wear high heels and the men forgot their bag of goods  (poison, flame throwers )on the helicopter and the ship sinks  and no transimissions can be heard. Then let the fun begin.

For instance that Ft Stewart in Georgia is named after Jimmy Stewart and Ft Myers is named after Mike Myers from monster movies. Who was the idiot in Bush's administration that named these places. There are some good names that we should be proud of such as Ft. Lee in Virginia named after a black woman named Sarah Lee who helped slaves escape during the civil war and Ft Jackson in South Carolina named after Rev Jessie Jackson. I call on President Obama to rename these Army Forts to something that does not offend any race or color. This another piece of the right wings stupidity to divide us as a nation of peoples of all colons.

I want to know why salvagers weren't all over the rat ship if it was left to drift off. Somebody would have known what was going on and some of the crew would have tipped them off. There's big $$$ in that shit.

427 400 comments into a thread on rats and no one has added this Python bit yet?

Wha's for afters?

Rat cake, rat sorbet, rat pudding, or strawberry tart.

Strawberry tart?

Well, it's got some rat in it.

'Ow much?

Three. Rather a lot, really.

Well, I'll have a slice without so much rat in it.

436 I'd be looking for an oblong box nestled in Eastern European dirt on that ship. During daylight hours.

438 Bill Clinton:

You are NOT the Father!!!!!!

Cut to Hillary's face; smug and smirking (puts arm around Huma)

pan to Chelsea's face: relieved yet sad.

cut to Full stage shot:

Maury's is grinning, Hillary's laughing, Chelsea's tearing up, Bill's looking surprised and Web (on remote camera) is laughing his ass off.

439 On our last thread about this I commented that I remember a Twilght2000 module with a similar scenario --- looking for that module has cost me several, otherwise productive, hours.

441 This ship story reminds me of the Mary Celeste:

"The Mary Celeste (or Marie Céleste as it is fictionally referred to by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and others after him) was a British-built American-owned merchant brigantine famous for having been discovered on 5 December 1872 in the Atlantic Ocean, unmanned and apparently abandoned (the one lifeboat was missing, along with its crew of seven), although the weather was fine and her crew had been experienced and capable seamen.

The Mary Celeste was in seaworthy condition and still under sail heading toward the Strait of Gibraltar. She had been at sea for a month and had more than six months' worth of food and water on board. Her cargo was virtually untouched and the crew's personal belongings including valuables were still in place. None of those on board was ever seen or heard from again and their disappearance is often cited as the greatest maritime mystery of all time."

443 Any British subject that attempts self-defense against these nutritionally-challenged rats will be prosecuted.

The rats will be given an ASBO, and released.

444 Oh yes watch out England because its near (maybe) northwest Scotland or Ireland. Cut to Irish coastguard...

445 "Since we don't know, it's perfectly fair to jump to the wildest, scariest conclusions."

That's so funny!  I read about this a week or two ago and thought the exact same thing.  They have no idea what's on the boat, sooooo it's probably loaded down with wild cannibal rats.

And even if it was true, don't you know how easy it is to kill hungry rats that can't run away?
