1899 | 5 Ghost Ships & Sea Mysteries That Inspired The Show | Well, I Never

The new Netflix show '1899' looks to have been inspired by several real life (and one or two fictional) sea mysterious and tales of 'ghost ships'.
In today's episode we take a look at 5 such mysterious events.
They range from the mystery of the M.V Joyita to the Lady Lovibond Ghost Ship and of course, the Mary Celeste.
00:21 - The Octavius
03:00 - The M.V Joyita
07:09 - The Lady Lovibond
10:25 - The Mystery of the Ourang Medan
14:58 - The Mary Celeste

[@WellINever]

Will you be watching 1899 when it releases on Netflix? Also, are there any other sea mysteries you'd like us to cover in a future episode? Thanks again for watching!

[@TheTonialadd]

I just added it to my watch list! Thanks for making this video.

[@Figgy5119]

If it's even half as good as Dark was, certainly!

[@foxracing8973]

The Emmy Rose sinking would be a great one to cover. It happened not too long ago in 2020 and mysteriously sunk without any radio distress call.

[@eroharu]

Excellent video! Loved every story and would definitely love to know a bit more about the Ourang Medan. Thank you Paul and Well, I Never crew for always bringing us great tales!! ❤

[@christine4223]

I would love for you to do a deep dive on the Ourang Medan. I recently finished my first playthrough of a game called The Man of Medan, a horror video game. To discover the game is based on an actual ship and uses some of the facts and speculations about what happened to it, is a real thrill. Then to hear you say the captain of the Mary Celeste, Benjamin Briggs, was from Massachusetts added to the fun because I grew up in Massachusetts. Thanks for this very enjoyable video.

[@Figgy5119]

I'd love to hear a deep dive on the Orang Medan case!

[@jiaswan22]

I second that, I had not heard of that one before.

[@rachelhirst8610]

Me too 🙋‍♀️it seems like a really interesting story

[@geigertec5921]

When I was a little kid in the 1990's my grandfather would take me out on his boat to go fishing. One day as were were sailing out of the marina we were beholden to a most amazing sight. A three masted barquentine in full sail was making her way into our marina. It would be the last time this ship would ever sail. When we returned from our trip the barquentine had been docked but was taking on water. We watched as water poured out the sides from the pumps working below. A few days later we returned to marina and went out on another fishing trip. We sailed past the sunken barquentine, its three masts the only parts visible above the waterline. When we returned the tide had gone out and the wheelhouse and deck cabins were exposed above the waterline. I watched as the wake from our boat lapped up against the wheelhouse door, its hinges creaking as it swung open and closed with the action of the waves. And so the massive wooden ship languished there sunken at its dock slowly deteriorating until the wreckers came and broke her up, the pieces taken away leaving not a trace but in my memory. For me it was the first and last time I would see a ship so elegant from the age of sail arrive and then part from this world. It must have truly been a magical time when these ships ruled the waves.

[@triciamills309]

That is a very cool story. I bet it was a sight to behold!

[@BeesWaxMinder]

So well written!! Thank You

[@BeesWaxMinder]

@Rebecca N I love this!! Thanks for Sharing your memories and your gift

[@adrienebailey9010]

Oh what an amazing story. I have been in a boat or abroad a ship.

[@artchic528]

Wow! You have a knack for storytelling. I could almost see the massive wooden hull of the forlorn ship as you were describing it, half sunken into the sea, with her creaking wheelhouse door opening and closing to the ebb and flow of the waves made by your grandfather’s boat. If only she could have talked. The stories that grand old vessel could have told! Like a wisened old person describing their youth and the ways of yesteryear. What once was a gloriously grand handcrafted ship that took a great many months, or years even, of back breaking labor and craftsmanship, that bore sailors across the mighty seas to lands unimaginable by what was considered “polite society” of its day, now hauled out of the mighty waters that bore her, reduced to a mere pile of scrap wood and iron to be burned up, melted down or tossed in a dump to rot. Such is the way of things. Old and outdated, deteriorated and irrelevant, and all but forgotten in a world of speed boats and ships with gas powered engines. I’m glad you saw her final moments. Now she’ll live on in your memory.

[@IntrepidFraidyCat]

I can't imagine how creepy it would be to set foot on a ship that was clearly "adrift."

[@myTERAexperience]

As you hear the cracking of bones and a chill run down your spine. Howling wind rushes past...you hear a splash... you journey to the side to see what it is to hear another splash but from the otherside. As you turn to investigate, more splashing happens, always opposing your gaze. You stop moving, standing still your eyes jutt back and forth as you hear the floor boards creak behind you as another tingle hits your spine. A cold but light grasp upon your shoulders as fog rolls over them, engulfing you. You see not but fog. Hear nothing but ill silence. You take a single step which creaks the floor and stop before completion. Silence. Fog. A tingle in your spine.

[@101boertjie]

I would LOVE to hear more about the Ourang Medan. It makes me wonder if there was some sort of gas leak that killed the crew. Maybe chemicals they had on board but weren't aware could react with each other?

[@runlarryrun77]

It's just a creepypasta.

[@nastybigJim]

@@runlarryrun77 Is that what the game Man of Medan is based off from?

[@sirboomsalot4902]

@@runlarryrun77 The story is from the 1940s, so way before the era of the creepy pasta, but it is most likely an urban legend. But there isn’t enough evidence for or against the incidents existence to definitely say either way. We’ll probably never know for sure unless someone comes across the wreck of the Medan.

[@sirboomsalot4902]

@@nastybigJim Yes

[@sirboomsalot4902]

The best theory I’ve heard is that they were carrying some kind of Japanese nerve agent to the US for testing and it got out. There are some chemicals (I forget their names, this is all from memory) that they could have been carrying that would have accounted for both the crews conditions and the explosion that sank her. It would also account for the Medan never appearing in any registries as they would have been using either an unregistered freighter or one that was renamed at sea.

I love the ocean - so powerful and unpredictable! We recently moved to a little house by the sea and I find it fascinating how so little of the ocean floor has actually been mapped. What lurks down there in the abyss? It is so intriguing and also very scary.. love to have a swim but who knows what is living below the water.. 😱 I just love these mysteries..

[@christine4223]

Depending on where you live, the water at the shoreline likely won't have any dangerous creatures lurking within. So go for a swim! Swimming in the ocean is unlike swimming anywhere else. As someone now living in landlocked Ohio, I miss it terribly.

@@christine4223 I live in central Italy, Christine. This autumn has been crazy warm here and we have been swimming most days until just a few days ago..

[@christine4223]

@@pimpozza Thanks for responding and letting me know you do swim in the ocean. I did get to swim one time in the deep ocean off the coast of Massachusetts. It was strange to be in the water and not be able to see land. Knowing there was so much water below me was strangely exhilarating. Of course I was a teenager then and I may feel a little differently now 😄

[@pimpozza]

@@christine4223 Wow! Swimming off the coast of Massachusetts in deepwater was so brave of you, Christina! I admit I have a fear of exremely deep bodies of water and there is actually a name for it. It's called _"thalassophobia"_ .. I kid you not! I haven't lived far from the ocean for the past two decades but now we are right on the seashore and I have to say it is lovely just to walk out the gate and wade into the sea. We had a large earthquake here 2 days ago.. it was the strongest on the Adriatica coast for nearly 100 years - measuring 5.7 on the Richter Scale. Luckily the epicentre was 20 miles out in the ocean, otherwise the devastation and destruction would have been bad. So we count our lucky stars. No real damage, no deaths but oh... did the house shake! The sea helped us this time... but our beautiful planet is rebelling.. 🌍❤🙋🏻‍♀️

[@thejudgmentalcat]

Best theory of the Mary Celeste is they abandoned it due to a storm. Many sailors back then assumed ownership rights to abandoned but still seaworthy vessels...not all of them granted due to not knowing if there was criminal conduct involved.

[@WolfieDawn]

Why abandon a big ship for a tiny life boat in a storm? Seems more dangerous...

[@PolevayaMysh]

My favourite theory is that they abandoned it because they thought there was risk of explosion of alcohol fumes They were transporting alcohol as cargo. So they left the hatch open to let the fumes out and decided to wait it out in the lifeboat. But something went wrong and the lifeboat got lost at sea, whereas Mary Seleste was fine after all.

[@ItsJustLisa]

I’d love to hear more about the Lady Lovibond. The first mate seems like a total psychopath, as if he couldn’t have the new wife, no one would.

[@WolfieDawn]

Agreed! I don't see how his lust and hatred (and frankly, entitlement) to the woman of his Captain and best friend could have driven him to not only kill a crew member but to steer the entire ship into the rocks...crazy...

[@ajmorgan4db7]

Definitely would like to hear more about the Ourang Medan. That sounds mysterious!

[@runlarryrun77]

It's just a creepypasta, it never happened.

[@AraRaven]

I'd love to hear deep dives on any of these stories, but the Ourang Medan is particularly intriguing! The origins of ghost stories is one of my favorite subjects in general, and one I'd love to hear you do more of!

[@catandmaggie]

It was rather interesting to hear about the Joyita, but I was genuinely surprised that there wasn't a reference to the *other* very well known mystery surrounding Roland West. Usually he's remembered as one of the prime suspects in the death of Thelma Todd. I am honestly curious if the oversight was intentional in order to keep the theme of the video intact, or if the writers were unaware of the connection.

[@brianedwards7142]

What about the amazing survival story of the SS Minnow. It was only through the ability of Professor Roy Hinkley to improvise almost any material from coconut shells and bamboo that they survived 3 years on that desert island..

[@simpleman5688]

Too bad it was only 3 years.

[@tabbitee]

When 'Bedtime Stories' first did a vid on the Ourang Medan, there was a very knowedgeable and chilling comment made by someone detailing how sure they were that the people on board were killed by a nerve agent. And really, in spite of al the mystery, confusion, and legend built up around the possibly non-existant Ourang Medan, I think the most chilling part is really that nerve agents actually exist - and what they do. Mysteries and histories may intrigue us, but the true horror is always in reality.

[@fionamacdonald8794]

Thank you, Paul! You are always such a wonderful storyteller and ghost ships are one of my favourite things - so I would say this is a perfect combination 😁🙏🏻

[@sdb9884]

[@foxracing8973]

I loved this video as I am a huge fan of maritime history, ghost ship stories/conspiracies/mysterious unknown events (also love your true crime videos and hearing about ones from other countries and from earlier times). Some believe the Ourang Medan was a completely made up story, others like you mentioned think it was a cover up by the US military (which definitely wouldn't be the first cover up done by my military and certainly would be easy to change its name/list of cargo it was carrying, as well as sinking the ship to cover up evidence) ....either way it's always been an intriguing mystery.

[@froschmaster100]

Great video, thanks! My „favourite theory“ about the Mary Celest is the one the Doctor Who writers came up with in the 60s: the crew was afraid of the Daleks so the jumped off board.

I’ve heard of the ‘Ourang Medan.’ But instead of a sailor’s tale, it reads like a creepy pasta story lol.

[@KittyCrystal]

I'd love a deep dive by you on the Medan! I'd be really curious to find out what your investigations would dig up. It seems like a case of a tale spun out of control from something perfectly rational and mundane, but even with fictional stories, I love finding out how and why they might have gained such traction over the years. I find humanity's history of folktales just as interesting as factual history.

One thing I didn't hear mentioned about the Mary Celeste is that the Captain's wife and a newborn infant were on board. It is speculated they left the ship temporarily for some reason and the lifeboat disengaged. My bet is piracy, but if nothing was missing from the rig, that moots that theory. Chemical emissions are possible as seems factual with the Ourang Medan. These mysteries are perpetual. We will never know.

[@JohnDavies-cn3ro]

A very informative programme, with so much content; loved it. The Joyita business having a connection to the death of Thelma "Hot Toddy" Todd is a new angle; that, itself is one of Hollywood's more curious scandalous mysteries. As for the Ourang Medan, this reminds me a little of the enduring mystery of the 'Flying Enterprise', lost near Plymouth a few years later. Her captain stayed aboard until forced to leave before it broke up, which is why it is still remembered, but there are rumours about its cargo - something special that the US didn't want known about. And the last I personally saw regarding the Marie Celeste suggested that her cargo was the cause - it was claimed she was carrying barrelled alcohol or petrol, causing a serious vapour build up in the hold. Her crew took to the boat, having loosened the hatch covers to allow the vapour to disperse, their line broke and the boat drifted away to be lost forever.

I’m extremely fascinated by mysteries of all kinds, but particularly those that take place on the sea. Also, I watched a few videos the other day about missing people in Alaska. They interviewed scientists, whom some are of the belief the high amount of missing persons is to do with the expansiveness and weather, but also possible magnetic vortexes. People who have survived their experiences witnessed their compasses going crazy. Some also had hallucinations, which can lead to a change in one’s behavior and their going missing. They call this the Alaska Triangle as it’s similar to the Bermuda and other triangles. I would love if you could do an episode about this someday.

Would love to see this channel do an informative deep-dive into the Ourang Medan. I’ve read up on many of the bizarre facts, and I personally believe that it was carrying chemicals without appropriate permits and safety measures, chemicals being disposed of by the US or Japanese governments after WW2. Chemicals which reacted with seawater the ship took on, resulting in gases which killed all of the crew, ultimately resulting in an explosion.

[@desireedejong1988]

Yes please,i hope you will let us more of these stories.❤

[@meesoedontask5562]

An Interesting fact: A few years ago there was a story in one of the American News Papers, think it was either the New York Post or the Wall Street Journal, but some one sailing from Bermuda to Spain, SAW the Celest lingering around the Azores. They reported it to the Coast Guard and sailed on. The report from the Coast Guard stated no ship found but not an unlikely sighting as the Celest wasn't where she was last seen, where she was ran aground. SO THERE IS GOOD POSSIBILITY that she is STILL ghost shipping around the planet... And she's not the only supposed MISSING SHIP to be spotted sailing unmanned. Apparently Ghost Ships Sightings were on a rise a few years back. Now what I would love to know more about is the Ghost Planes... It's highly understandable about Ghost Ships, the current carries them everywhere... But what makes planes that do not have autopilot functions, asides from a rope holding the controls, land at the proper airports with no crew... THOSE ARE THE STORIES THAT REALLY SEND SHIVERS DOWN ANYONES SPINE as they scratch their heads in curiosity of, WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CREW and HOW THE HELL DID A PLANE LAND WITH NO PILOT OR AUTOPILOT? Far as I have researched it's happened a few times with small planes and twice that I know of with Bombers, once in England and once in the U.S. I believe England was WW1 and the U.S. was WW2... True creepy situations.
