Zim Kingston Container Ship Fire

The container ship Zim Kingston was traveling from Busan, South Korea to Vancouver, BC, Canada. The ship lost approximately 40 containers in rough seas off the coast of Vancouver Island, BC. While traveling through the Strait of Juan de Fuca, some of the shipping containers caught fire. The ship is anchored in these photos and videos. The videos photos are taken from the Victoria waterfront, near Beacon Hill Park and Clover Point, using a Canon EOS 70D.

2 of the 6 containers on fire contained 52,080 kilograms of potassium amylxanthate (used for separating material from ores). Don't know what was on the others, or the ones which fell in the ocean.
