LIVE: Watch the Top Kill Here
After weeks of anticipation, tonight BP streams the hours-long Top Kill finale online! Will pumping tons of heavy mud into the well halt the flow? Or will our contestants have to come up with another wacky scheme? Watch it here.
The top kill started hours ago. According to BP it could be up to 24 hours until we know if the top kill worked. (Though Bobby Jindal says we'll know tonight.) So grab some Reeses Pieces, call in sick and let's get ready to stage a bittersweet celebration if that oil stops, or an all-out pitchfork-type mob rush of BP headquarters if it doesn't. (We promise we won't spoil it for west coast viewers.)
