STORY: Italian firefighters released video footage filmed inside the Costa Concordia cruise ship on Monday (January 16). Sixteen people were still missing and 6 were confirmed dead after the cruise ship ran aground off the coast of Italy on Friday.
The video captures the difficulties rescuers face on the half-submerged cruise liner.
Firefighters can be seen using ropes to pull themselves up across the deck of the ship and walking on the side of the vessel which is now facing the sky.
Footage filmed inside the ship showed chairs piled up against the wall of a large room.
Worsening weather and heavy seas earlier made the wreck slip on the rocky underwater slope where it is lodged off the island of Giglio and rescue teams were evacuated.
But they returned to work after several hours searching for the missing. It is believed that 4,200 were onboard.
