In today’s episode of idiots taking idiotic selfies in front of horrifyingly deadly places or items, we have a nice couple politely smiling in front of the Costa Concordia.

The Italian ship was wrecked in the Tyrrhenian Sea in January 2012, killing 32 on board. The vessel was unable to be transported until this week, when it began a final voyage to Genoa, where it will be scrapped for salvageable parts.

Here a couple additional disturbing images of the destroyed ship during transport:
