Original: A "Black Friday" of sorts has begun in the Strait of Hormuz following the sinking of a container ship—Iranian fishermen

A Singapore-flagged container ship, the GFS Pride, sank in the Strait of Hormuz on October 13, spilling its cargo into the water. Iranian fishermen have since been retrieving goods from the stricken vessel, reportedly hauling in smartphones, perfumes and other merchandise, in what observers are calling a 'Black Friday' of free goods. Fox News reported the scene, and the episode has drawn attention to both the shipwreck and the scramble for its lost cargo.

Why now: The unusual spectacle of fishermen collecting valuable consumer goods from a sunken container ship has captured widespread attention.
