Oil Spill Gone Wild

The story of the Gulf Oil Spill has mostly been told through pictures and harrowing stories. Now after weeks of delaying the inevitable, BP has relented and posted video of the main leak. The oil company even kicked in a suspenseful clip of the giant containment dome being lowered onto the site.

Scientists can’t predict how much oil is coming out of the well from the first clip and we learned that the underwater dome failed earlier this week. But if you know anyone who doubts the severity of the spill, sit them down in front of these clips and let the enormity of the volcano-like eruption sink in.
