From Hudson, Panama Canal to Las Vegas, the user shared pictures of the cargo ship stranded almost everywhere.(Source: @en_dash/Twitter) Almost a week after the ill-fated Ever Given blocked Egypt’s Suez Canal, authorised have confirmed that the cargo ship was re-floated on Monday. While hopes of the busy waterway reopening soon are building up, a new web application has surfaced on social media, that lets users visualise what the ship would look like when stuck in different places.
“I took 10 minutes out of my life to create a@glitch app that lets you wedge the Ever Given anywhere you want in the world. Here it is stuck in Boston Harbor,” tweeted a user @en_dash while sharing a Twitter thread featuring the ship wedged in several other places.

Doesn’t quite block the Mississippi in front of the Gateway Arch, but this gives a pretty good sense of scale for midwesterners to understand how big it is. pic.twitter.com/OtygUtZgJ4
