(Bonus) The Curious Case of the Glenesslin
The Glenesslin mysteriously crashed into the cliffs of Oregon in calm weather.
In 1913, the fully-rigged British vessel Glenesslin strangely sailed straight into the rocks on the coast of Oregon, despite relatively calm weather. Locals reported the captain and crew were drunk, and rumors of insurance fraud swirled. Many questions still remain about why this beautiful ship was wrecked on the rocks.
