How terrifying for the folks on board at the time. Never heard of anything like this before.

It says it was dislodged from its holding on a dry dock. That couldn't happen in the water in normal conditions. I'm guessing that Health and Safety will be having a well justified field day.
Must have been strong winds !

Incidents like this are not uncommon, especially in dry docks or where the ship is being transferred from the dry dock to the water.
By comparison, this incident wasn't all that spectacular.
