Possible solution?: blow air through pipes in the ground to make the sand fluid.

  Good point. I guess they’d have to dredge the canal afterwards. I’m curious what the solution will be, but I’m most disappointed about the lack of photos, videos, reports about what is broken (it’s taking in water ; did it have an electrical breakdown? why did it draw a d... before entering the canal? pilot immaturity?). I guess it’s a side-effect of being ashore far away from population. We’re pretty much left with 2 images of a digger, a satellite, and no public communication from the Smit Savage company (who’s in charge of the multimillion salvage). Not all the world is covered with handheld reporters, finally!

    There’s a village right by it. The Egyptian govt is telling locals not to take pictures; Suez brings in a lot of revenue for the govt, so they won’t want to dissuade people from not planning their route through there
