Killswitch Engage and Beartooth, crashed into a pier in Jamaica last week.The ship Carnival Magic was playing host to the ShipRocked Festival, and set sail from Miami last weekend, before hitting high winds and rocky waters.They docked at Ocho Rios, Jamaica on Monday (February 5), but the following day part of the pier’s construction collapsed under the pressure and the ship crashed into the dock.The ship’s operator Carnival Cruises reported that there were no injuries as a result of the accident and that the ship’s services remained operational, although the vessel did sustain damage.After the event, the cruiser docked at an adjacent pier, with the passengers left for 12 hours. “We had a couple thousand people just out in a field in the pouring rain and no shelter, no food, no drinks.
