Wind and rain dislodge boat trapped on rocks above Niagara Falls for 101 years.
A boat stuck on rocks above Niagara Falls for more than a century has been unmoored by high wind and heavy rains.
Thursday’s harsh weather pushed the vessel away from its rocky perch and closer to the falls on the Canadian side, according to the Niagara Parks Commission.
It’s the first time it’s moved any appreciable distance for more than a century, according to CNN affiliate CBC.
In a video produced by Niagara Parks Commission on Friday, an official, Jim Hill, said the barge, while not currently moving, appears to have “flipped on its side and spun around.”
Heavy rains and wind managed to move a massive boat that has been stuck on a rocky perch near Niagara Falls for more than a century. It’s now just over 2,000 feet from the edge of the horseshoe falls.» Subscribe to NBC News: http://nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC
