No shortage of posts about it on the internetz. Apparently twins are easier to dock than singles.

Reports are the driver had a heart attack, and fell on the controls.

I don’t even understand how that happens. The impact looks like the boat jumped, I feel like going that fast to jump on the dock, would destroy the actual dock ? Bizarre how physics work sometimes

Damn lucky he didn't get decapitated. If what Brian says is true, being slumped over probably saved him from a worse fate.

The LOTO crash while not identical in trajectory reminded me of this race accident back in the day

Last update I saw on Facebook was the driver was in critical condition due to the heart attack. Luckily nobody was killed in this incident.
