Explanation:
In the aftermath of the tragedy, a joint Swedish-Finnish-Estonian government committee ruled it an accident and blamed it on stormy weather that caused water to pour through an open bow door and into the Estonia's car deck, destabilizing the ship and capsizing it in less than an hour

=> The MS Estonia ferry sank as it was crossing from Tallinn to Stockholm in September 1994, killing 852 people.
=> A 1997 investigation found that the ship's bow door locks had failed in a storm.
=> But new underwater footage appears to show a previously unrecorded four metre (13ft) hole in the ship's hull.
