The ro-ro ferry the Estonia sank in September 28th, 1994, in the earlier hours of the morning, with the loss of about 852 lives; only about 240 people were rescued. Most of the survivors were healthy young people; the old and the very young perished. The accident took place off the coast of Finland and this video gives the author's personal view of why the Estonia sank; which is not the same as the 'Official' view.
