      Looks like the Strait of Hormuz has turned into the world’s slowest drive-thru except everyone’s ordering oil and nobody’s getting served.

      Validity of the video is questionable.

      I’m quite certain I’ve seen this in another context before the Iran war.

      Ima call bullshit on this one.

      Gonna throw in my 2 cents here and say that this is in fact *NOT* the strait of Hormuz. Firstly, what on earth would an Airbus A319/320 from United be doing in the Middle East. Those airplanes have a range of ~7000Km or ~4500mi. Look at the image I attached. Not to mention, all flights from and to the Middle East have been suspended by United airlines. If this doesn’t prove this video is completely unrelated, I don’t know what does. Remember kids, not everything you see on the internet is true.

    4. I am like 95% sure that this is a plane landing at SIN (Singapore Changi International Airport) and not the strait of Hormuz, its well known amongst aviation enthusiasts for this view of cargo ships when approaching from over the sea, I will include a Photo for reference and feel free to type “Singapore airport approach ships” in google images and many pictures will pop up, I knew instantly this was most likely fake, and the fact that the nearest Active commercial airport to the strait is Dubai International which is 100 miles/ 160km away……

      The sailors on those tankers legally cannot get off those boats so they’re just stuck there. They also don’t get extra money for the time stuck there.

    6. Waiting for that one Captain to have had enough Vodka to say “fuck it” and put the hammer down 😅

      This is most certainly from when the Suez was blocked. Source on this actually being Hormuz?

    8. Its like Squid games. You’re dead if you’re still moving after music stopped.

      Time to start up a foodboat like the trucks that visit job sites. The grub-tub is what I’ll call her.
