There is the Swiss cheese effect - often cited in disasters like this one. It's when a whole series of independent events which by themselves wouldn't cause a disaster but when combined lead to the end result.

When the ship lost power, the stacked containers acted as a giant sail pushing the ship to the west, out of the channel and toward the bridge support.
