The news that circulated regarding Jeff Bezos’ yacht crossing a historic Dutch bridge, and that it will be dismantled for this crossing, sparked widespread anger among the pioneers of the social media in the Netherlands, to the extent that they agreed to throw eggs when it passed, and it is currently scheduled to be built to become the largest yacht The sailor in the world is 417 feet (127 meters) high, and the bill for allowing the yacht to pass by billionaire Jeff Bezos will be 400 million pounds.
According to the British “The Sun” website, more than 3,900 Rotterdam residents organized invitations to “Facebook” to throw rotten eggs on the luxury yacht, newly built by Jeff Bezos, for which a historic Dutch bridge will be dismantled as soon as it passes from this place as a kind of object to this action.
Comments on the discussion board ranged from supporter and opponent to the idea, and some welcomed and proposed ways to implement the idea, and others condemned it.
Dutch conservationists said they would bomb billionaire Jeff Bezos’ luxury yacht with rotten eggs if part of a 140-year-old bridge was dismantled to make way for his yacht.
Rotterdam residents expressed their anger on Facebook at the news that part of the Koningshaven Bridge, which locals refer to as De Hef, will be temporarily removed so that Bezos’ Y721 yacht, which has a height of 417 feet and its three large masts, can To pass, Pablo Straman, 40, posted a call on Facebook urging locals to take action by bringing a carton of rotten eggs with them if the yacht makes its way through the waterway.
“Rotterdam was built from the rubble by the Rotterdamers, and we are not dismantling it just for the megalomaniac billionaire,” wrote Struermann on Facebook, as reported by the Dutch daily BnDestim.
Struermann’s post attracted the attention of nearly 3,000 people who said they would “come” while another 10,000 indicated they were “interested”.
When asked regarding his motivation for making the call, Strowman said: ‘Because I’m from Rotterdamer and I think people who have a lot of money should realize that you can’t make everything go exactly your way. This is going well.”
Last week, the mayor of Rotterdam denied making a final decision on the landmark, which underwent reforms in 2017.
The city council promised residents not to tamper with the bridge following a 2017 renovation, but Bezos and Ochenko, the Dutch shipbuilder preparing to unveil the yacht, have pledged to foot the bill for the dismantling.
The company, which is building the yacht upriver in the town of Placerdam, said dismantling part of the bridge was the only way for the yacht to sail.
