Sailors and some flight crew stand on the deck, as the Hancock appears to be underway at high speed, judging by the water in background. Scene gets dark (underexposed) as sailors move the wreckage. Next, a crane is seen erected and lifting the main wreckage. But the load drops back down on the deck. Filming is interrupted, but picks up again, as the mobile crane carries the wreckage to the edge of the deck and drops it into the ocean.
