Amazon launches submarine delivery service – Amazon Slime

Amazon has launched a submarine delivery service following a widely publicised photo shoot on the Essex mudflats. The service, Amazon Slime, will use a fleet of specially adapted Amazonphibious vans that can avoid tax at depths of up to a thousand metres and can emerge from the water and take to the road.

Amazon Slime’s marketing director Nat Nautilus said: “This has been in development for some time and we’re delighted to formally announce this enhancement of our existing Prime service. With traffic on our motorways at unprecedented levels we’re discovering that the coastal route is often quicker.”

Where possible the adapted vans can also use the UK’s river network to make their deliveries. As news has spread crowds now line the banks of the River Severn to see Amazon Slime vans surf the Severn Bore. Local historian and Severn bore, Nigel Jones, sets this in historical context, although people have usually left by then.
