Dive Bomber: When Boats Fall from the Sky

In a surreal scene straight out of a cartoon, a boat with a peeling paint job, a green-tinged hull, and rusty parts made an unexpected entrance by crashing down from a roof. While boats aren’t known for their aerial acrobatics.

Since the early days of transportation, advances in materials science and engineering have led to significant improvements in vehicle durability and safety. Cars, for instance, now feature rust-resistant coatings, advanced alloys, and precision engineering to withstand harsh environments and reduce wear and tear. Modern vehicles are also equipped with sophisticated safety systems like crumple zones and airbags that were unimaginable in the early 20th century.
