She fractured her hull at the sixth fathom shoals the taken on water. The hit by 2 rogue haves with the Anderson Cooper stated the were hit with. The first wave caused her nose to hit the bottom and the second caused her to break in two.

So cool and great to see

I must have been about six years old when I went on Port Welcome ( Im now 63) and Bob McAllister was doing a show with all his characters including Mike Fury and Professor Fingleheimer. The harbor sure has changed and been built up. I wonder whatever happened to Port Welcome ( little toot) as we used to call it

I wish I could find more information about my great grandmother who came here in 1909. She was only 9 years old and was "sponsored" by an Italian mob family and put into a textile factory outside of Philly. I can only imagine how this journey was for her. She spoke of those years with anger and fear. It is so hard to find information about her history.

Born in Bermuda and the first time I came to the states was on the Queen of Bermuda. Our parents made sure we were awake to see the Statue of Liberty

Seen a lot of scary things in my time but looking at broken bent windows of the Edmund Fitzgerald is freaky knowing men had been standing there.😢

My great grandparents and grandmother came here from Calabria Italy after the 1908 earthquake. This video tells me we the USA didn’t treat them very well. A lot of Italians worked in coal mines in West Virginia. We sold them fairytales.

Huh, this guy had YT videos before YT or the Internet existed...very forward thinking.

A guy, my sister‘s neighbor works with was at Walmart one day and started talking to a guy in the checkout line who said his second cousins sister on his cousins side, graduated college with a guy who said some boy he grew up with Dad had a boat back in the day😂🤭😝😬🙂‍↔️🧐

Filming this documentary in B&W was also a crime.

Ericsson..... Dock side

Supposedly, there was a guy who offered a pier at Red Hook New York for her to be kept at for minimal to no cost until she had a plan made for her restoration. Sir, if you're out there, we need to save this icon. She deserves better than to be a rotting hulk on the bottom of the ocean. SS United States Foundation, are you listening?

Nice informative video.

Classic'name'edmund fitzgerald⭐♥️🎇🎇lake superior'is mad,in big ships♨️

That ship broke up on top the water and sank. It's the only thing that makes since? That ship has already been proven to be under engineered and the cook said it was in poor shape. It didn't bottom out. It just broke up and sank. Science has proved this. All the new investigation shows this and proves this is how it happened. I don't believe anything else. If you listen to the radio transmission the Capt of the Fitz never said he had a list to any side. He simply said he had a list. Facts are Facts. The story must be kept straight and told truthfully. It's the only way to show respect to the crew. Not at all trying to say I know it all but the Facts tell the story.

My family came here from Sicily in the early 1900s. Italians where treated worse then slaves in Illinois until the mafia came here and got us protection. It wasn't until around the 20s until we got recognized as normal people. We weren't even considered white. Please next time learn how to pronounce Italian words before saying them in a video.

Rest in peace to the 29 souls that perished on the Edmund Fitzgerald, the Titanic of the Great lakes🙏❤.

love of money or family values , maymaygwashi will ruin your day

Nowadays they turn the shop around in a few hours. Granted they aren’t loading cars. But it’s become more efficient. Can’t wait to dive her.

A marvelous ship and one my aunt and mom sailed on a number of times. I don't think her single-smokestack was in any way successful but it's less offensive when seen from onboard.

"There were no witnesses." There was a witness - The Anderson, but she can't tell what she saw, because the storm blocked her view. When she finally got through the storm to Whitefish Bay, The Fitz was already gone.

My father worked on that for the gerry company and my parents and brother will both engaged on that Ferry. We used to get on the ferry and go over to Newport all the time to go to the movies, just walk around Thames street. My brother and my sister used to have to take it to go to Rogers High School. I miss it dearly. It will always be in my heart forever. I remember as a child sneaking on the ferry thinking we were not going to be seen, but you didn't do anything like that because everybody knew you. We thought we were getting away with something. LOL that is what we used to call downtown.

No way was it hatch covers!!! A fence rail down and 2 vent covers gone the vents were for the ballast tanks taking on water not the cargo holds!!!

@ 43:16 the CG spokesman admits “…the crewmen on the bridge did not have time to put on life jackets…” How would the CG conclude that without evidence of the bodies? Yet none were ever “officially” located…? The current understanding is no more dives are allowed on the wreck. That leaves out the chance for Magnetic Resonance Imaging which would penetrate the hull in any direction and prove any damage to the structure hidden by mud.

Rode it many times.

Hey soul brothers ITALIANS HAD IT ROUGH TOO YET WE STILL LOVE AMERICA GOOBtza heads

It sunk because of it being cut in half and made longer😢

37 knot. you need bunkers to

Sailed to Australia in 1974 on her to start a new life

@46:22...an alledged engineer is allowed to expose a theory that sounds as if he not only was involved in the construction of the Edmund Fitzgerald, he was a eyewitness of the tragedy. He speaks of behaviors,and structure,and movement of the ship as if he were there.. It's disrespectful because if he indeed carried the knowledge and information he tends to be so sure of and did nothing to warn or inform ships handlers or masters he ,IMO,is complicit in the incident...His deposition borders on disrespect for those brave men ...lost.

These immigrants came to the US to assimilate AND BECOME AMERICANS!!!, unlike the "asylum seekers" Sleepy Joe lets in by the millions. They learned and spoke English and the American traditions

No mystery . Over loaded inna hurry out dated and the lake was pissed .

And I'm going to say this the only people group of people who have been really loyal to this country and it has been loyal to them is FBA we are the group that has contributed the most unlike any other pocs we have never tried to betray this country even though we get sliced in our back we never thought about outsourcing jobs lick it all 50 of the black towns that were burnt down here recreate businesses if we were left alone and not sabotage economically or physically the economy would be fine so give FBA it's reparations financial black Americans cuz I know some you got relatives that own car dealerships a home Depot real estate when fba gets those reparations all those businesses across the Nation will be making money it's going to be circulating and you don't have to worry about being outsourced to other countries in high volumes like what's happening with the migrants and plus they're getting more help from our government you're not going to see a return at least with FBA you got to see a return in less than 10 years. PS check our resume what we done for this country

The reason why is because America and the people who are in the government then were very nationalistic they did not have dual allegiances with other countries like some of these people do now they were ready to fight it out until the end the people we have in there now they're ready to up and go when that s*** hits the fan there are no more Teddy Roosevelt's in our government anymore it is filled with nothing but Benedict Arnold's and you can tell the Benedict Arnold's are the ones that are outsourcing everything

I encourage everyone to research the ship their family traveled on. You can often see pictures. My grandparents arrived on a tiny tuna can that sank on a subsequent journey.

Nice to watch footage of this great ship in its heyday.Sad to see her now in Philadelpia stripped bare snd facing an uncertain future.

I love the Washington state ferries especially the one that goes to bremerton or anacortes to friday harbor

She definitely nose dived and broken half when she hit the bottom her ass would’ve still been sticking out of the water what a horrific experience for those men trapped in the aft part of the ship

A special VIDEOS .....of a Special, Beautiful lady. "DELTA QUEEN "....AND THE WONDERFUL CREWS WHO CARED FOR HER...❤❤❤❤❤❤ MANY,MANY GOD PRAYERS TO SEE "DELTA QUEEN " RUN AGAIN ON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER..AND GREAT SUCCESS 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Loved this documentary, but wish it had added a tribute to the crew working on it. My uncle was among them.

This ship still exists but is in trouble please support!

Ada Indonesia coy😅☝️

If the inspection on the 31st of October was that the Fitzgerald was ordered not to start the 1976 season, but they allowed the Fitzgerald to finish the 1975 season. I dont understand how they could order that ship to be fixed before it was to start the 76' season and allow it to make its last run in 75'. That's the worst decision made and it was made directly due to financial gain and nothing more.the I've ever heard. Why was that ship not ordered to cancel its last run to be fixed if it needed serious enough repairs that it was not to start the following season until it was fixed?

The synthesizer soundtrack is so cringey!

Such a shame it's just left to rot in Philly. What a grand ship.
