Video footage shows chaos on Costa Concordia

At 10.25pm a man identified in the video as Captain Francesco Schettino is
seen talking on the phone while senior officers struggle to understand what
is happening, with at least one shouting out: “What do we do?”

One official is heard saying: “Passengers are getting into the life boats.”

A man believed to be Capt Schettino then replies: “Vabbuo”, which means
“Whatever”.

Francesco Verusio, the magistrate leading the investigation into the disaster,
told The Independent: “This is new to us – I’ve just seen it for the
first time.

“We’ve heard everything that was happening on the bridge.”

Costa cruises last month offered about 11,000 euros to each of the more than
3,000 injured passengers who survived the wreck.

The company blamed the ship’s captain for the accident.

Schettino, who prosecutors say sailed too close to the island where it was
torn open by rocks, is under house arrest on charges of multiple
manslaughter, causing a shipwreck and abandoning ship.

Italian authorities are currently attempting to remove the fuel from the ship,
which is still lying on rocks off the coast of the Tuscan island.
