Chilling footage shows Bayesian superyacht slowly disappearing from view during raging storm
Security camera footage from 650 feet from where the Bayesian superyacht sank Monday shows it slowly disappearing.
In the chilling video, the lights from the boat go out of view as the storm rages.
A witness told Giornale Di Sicilia that they rushed to watch the tape after learning about the ship.
What to know after a tornado sank the yacht Bayesian off the coast of Sicily:
- A superyacht capsized off the coast of Sicily after a tornado hit the area early Monday, killing seven passengers.
- British tech tycoon Mike Lynch was identified as one of the bodies pulled from the wreckage. His teenage daughter, Hannah, was the final one to be recovered.
- Lynch — known as “Britain’s Bill Gates” — had invited guests from Clifford Chance, a legal firm that represented him, and Invoke Capital, his own company, on the voyage, according to the Telegraph.
- Security camera footage shot from 650 feet from where the Bayesian sank Monday shows it disappearing.
- A rare and unexpected “black swan” weather event may have led to the Bayesian’s speedy demise, maritime experts say.
“Of about 20 cameras installed in the house, only one was not disturbed by the wind and rain. You can clearly see what is happening,” the witness said.
“There was nothing that could be done for the boat. It disappeared in a very short time.”
