Ship filled with Cannibal Rats Possibly headed for Scotland

[Apricots And A Pear Tree]

A GHOST ship crewed only by CANNIBAL rats is feared to be heading for Britain.

The hulk of cruise ship Lyubov Orlova has been adrift in the North Atlantic for the past year after being cut loose off the coast of Canada.

But now coastguards are reportedly worried the recent storms may have driven her thousands of miles towards our own coastline.

The 300ft vessel, built 40 years ago in the Soviet Union, has nothing aboard but packs of disease-ridden rodents who are forced to prey on one another to survive.

Her current position is unknown despite several high-level searches.

Last year satellites picked up an unidentified blip off Scotland large enough to be the ship — but search planes found nothing.

As well as the authorities, salvage hunters — after the 4,250-ton vessel's £600,000 value as scrap — are scouring the seas for any trace of her.

They believe the liner is still afloat because its life-raft transmitters have not been activated.

If the ship makes landfall it is likely to be on the west coast of Ireland, Scotland or the far southern tip of England.

One searcher, Belgian Pim de Rhoodes, said: "She is floating around out there somewhere.

"There will be a lot of rats and they eat each other.

"If I get aboard I'll have to lace everywhere with poison."

Named after a Russian actress, the Lyubov Orlova carried up to 110 passengers to destinations across the globe, including the polar regions.

However, in 2010 she was impounded in Newfoundland, Canada in a row over debts and deserted by her unpaid crew.

After two years tied up in port, the decision was taken to tow her to the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean where she would be scrapped.

But in heavy seas, the tow-line to a tug broke, prompting the Canadian government to send out another ship to drag her far out to sea and release her.

"There have been huge storms in recent months but it takes a lot to sink a vessel as big as that," said Irish coastguard chief Chris Reynolds.

"We must stay vigilant."

I don't know about you,but I feel like watching Rats:Night of Terror right now.

How hard could it be to sink that thing? Just attached some dynamite to the side of it, and boom. No more cannibal rat invasion.

Okay everybody, tuck your pants into your socks.

[Mister Pigwell]

Tucking pants into socks won't do a damn bit of good, I own 5 non-cannibalistic rats and they're perfectly willing to charge across the room and run straight up your pants leg to sit on your shoulder in half a second.

If these things come to shore we're all dead or will have to bow to their whims. No getting around it.

[Rumble McSkirmish]

Look like we now know what happened to the rats from Silva's Island.

So why can't they sink the damn thing?

They've somehow lost the sonofabitch.

I know the ocean is large, but the whole "ghost ship full of cannibal rats"...how'd they get on board, how'd the ship manage to shake its mooring and no one noticed it for long enough to lose it completely (not easy, it's a giant f***ing boat).

[Deleted]

Oh for f***'s sake, why did it have to be Scotland? What about all the other countries in the world? Y'know, ones I don't live in.

[Mozenrath]

Plus, I imagine just sinking a boat could be a bit of a mess. You don't want to pollute the water so you need to be careful about how you do it.

I do wonder if Asylum is somewhere, cracking their whips until someone can churn out a few scripts based on this.

Yes, true. Sadly, this means if they're gonna sink it, they can't let it get close to shore.

Odd thing about them. I've got friends with pet rats, and they're friggin' cute and actually friendly and easily trained. However, rats, wild rats or those trapped on ships, creep me the f*** out.

[Non Banjoble Tokens]

Next, the boat will land, the rats will invade the land, and infiltrate society, breeding with the women, ultimately leading to a race of super human/rat cannibal hybrids. Soon all of Europe will be doomed. Boy am I glad that I live in America where I only have to worry about being morbidly obese.

Well Scotland better learn this song

[Deleted]

Wait...if they're cannibal rats wouldn't that mean they'd just eat other rats?

Rats in that condition will eat anything that will fit in the mouth, or anything they can breakdown enough to fit anyways. They can be vicious little f***s.

Because there can be only one, Highlander. When the last rat is alive, he can claim The Prize.

[BigBadZ]

If the ship makes it to shore, we are looking at the zombie apocalypse. If we sink it far enough from shore, everything could go to plan and the disease will dwindle off. Or the ocean life could eat those rats and either make the disease more widespread and possibly delaying the apocalypse for future generations. I say nuke that ship!

Shoot that f***ing boat with a torpedo or two
