Jeff Bezos' Yacht Will Dismantle A Historic Dutch Bridge Just So It Can Get Through, Stirring Up A Heated Controversy Online

Jeff Bezos' Yacht Will Dismantle A Historic Dutch Bridge Just So It Can Get Through, Stirring Up A Heated Controversy Online

Judging from his presence within memes, it seems like few particularly like Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, so when news broke this week that Bezos' 417-foot, $500 million superyacht was too big to pass underneath a Rotterdam bridge in the Netherlands, reporters across the web jumped onto the story of peak late capitalism.


According to Dutch News, the bridge will be partly demolished in order for the boat to pass through after getting approval from the local council. The yacht is newly manufactured, being constructed for Bezos' pleasure within the Oceano shipyard located in Alblasserdam. However, when it's time for Bezos to ride the thing, it's going to have to pass beneath the Koningshaven bridge, also known as De Hef.


News of the story broke on Twitter yesterday where users reacted to the billionaire's opulence, most in disbelief that one could hold the power to dismantle a landmark. Others centered on ironically understating the size of Bezos' mega-yacht and some even hinted at throwing objects at it when the time comes.


Already so early in 2022, Bezos has been dunked on in memes for his New Year's Eve photoshoot. It seems he can't escape humorous backlash from the internet, but when others like Stephen Speilberg are also getting Dutch yachts in the mail, it's hard to just isolate him as the only uber-rich person gone seemingly overboard.
