Bismarck opened fire to HMS Hood the visible water splashes are supposedly shells from Prince of Wales.

The smoke is from the exploded shells scored by Prinz Eugen one hit the UP rocket projector and the other shell exploded near her mast causing this visible smoke. The smoke on the right is from HMS Hood burning from magazine explosion while HMS Prince of Wales make a turn to avoid the burning wreck of her I made this from the battle report from both German side and the RN from the Wikipedia and HMS Hood(dot)com, if there's any mistakes please elaborate so we could understand the footage more clearly.

@UCKRelhNIWOSL_wbIlj8gqHw I'm not sure either but thanks for commenting, just like you said Hood mistaken prince Eugen who led the fleet as Bismarck during initial first salvos from RN side, and HMS Hood exploded after Prince of Wales fired five consecutive firing (from this battle map: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/60/090102_PoW_gunnery_plot.png) since Hood magazine exploded in the third salvos from Bismarck and out of order immediately I'm assuming that the splashes are from the still operational 356mm of Prince of Wales bacause in this: www.hmshood.com/history/denmarkstrait/pgbattlemap.gif Prince of Wales keep returning fire while Prinz Eugen maneuver and kgv class has much more guns so I'm assuming that the splashes are the result from the more advanced computer balistic of the Admiralty Fire Control Table (A.F.C.T.) installed on KGV class. For safety reason of misinformation I'll change the splashes to RN's gun instead since both 356 and 380 mm gun isn't noticeable enough.

Its pretty hard to colorize battleships in battleship gray painting fighting in the fog and grey mist of the Northern Atlantic.

[@TheTomasio1975]

Actually not all battleships were "battleship gray" during WWII. For the Bismarck see here: www.kbismarck.com/drawings.html, I personally like the Baltic scheme with the black & white stripes and false bow wave. The Royal Navy was adopting various camouflage schemes at this time including painting some ships brown, green and light gray! Though in May both Hood and PoW were in Home Fleet dark gray (507a, I believe, could have been 507b, would have to double check to be sure). The US navy had adopted its first group of camouflage measures by this time. The Italians were also using camouflage schemes on its ships including yellow. The Japanese where hold outs using on overall dark gray.

It's amazing what technology can do these days, bringing color to black and white photos and film just make it seem more realistic. The only gripe that I have with this video is that when Bismarck fires her guns, there should be a slight delay between when we see them go off, and when we hear them. I'm not sure how far away Prinz Eugene was from Bismarck in these shots, but I would assume that she's far enough away for there to a slight delay in between seeing the guns fire and then hearing them. Other than that, awesome job.

This is Bismarck, filmed from Prinz Eugen. It is early in the battle, when Bismarck was on Prinz Eugens starboard aft quarter. Bismarck later crossed over Prinz Eugens wake after sinking Hood. As far as I know there is no video footage of Hood sinking. Only Prince of Wales would have been close enough, but crewmen in the open would have other things on their minds when Hood exploded, for example taking cover to avoid being hit by shrapnel

[@jebbroham1776]

Fun fact, Bismark lies at the second deepest depth of any other warship sunk in the Atlantic during war time, ever. It beats the Titanic's resting depth by over half a mile. When Bismark sank, she slipped beneath the waves stern first and plummeted to the bottom at a speed of almost 30 knots. This descent continued for approximately 2 miles before her bow impacted the Western slope of a long extinct underwater volcano and the ship "slid" down this underwater mountain until it came to rest several thousand feet further down roughly 2/3rds of the volcano's total height. Despite the massive pounding Bismark took from torpedos, 14 and 15 inch shells, and a wide other assortment of punishment before she was scuttled it was discovered by Robert Ballard, the same man who discovered Titanic some years before, that no critical hits had been scored below the waterline and the armored belt at the midsection port AND starboard showed no holes. The only thing that sank Bismark was her crew, as it became quite clear after the unfortunate torpedo hit to the rudder chain that there would be no escape.

[@KatyushaLauncher]

There is little actual evidence it was scuttled. It sank as it was hit from TORPEDOES from the Cruiser HMS Dorsetshire. And was taking on water and listing at this point. All the command were dead. (Who gave the order to scuttle?). The crew were abandoning ship, here is the strange part. Some few survivors and one claims he was sent to place charges on a ship which is clearly sinking. In the middle of heavy fire. The ship promptly sank and rolled (scuttled ships sink evenly not rolling) which suggests battle damage. Also the guy who claims it was undamaged, film maker Cameron does so from the claim there's no hole in the side when there is a huge massive section of midships missing. For a start he isn't an expert and for a second the ships so wrecked midships something clearly ripped a hole in it. Then there is the claim it didn't implode so must have been full of water. Which again we are aware of. It took on lots of water prior to sinking hence why it was sitting so low in the water. The Royal Navy later sent an expedition which saw the heavy damage and came to the conclusion it was sunk by combat. And even if scuttled this only speeded it's sinking by hours or minutes.

That low white foam mass erupting near the bows is a waterline hit, not a wave -- it's the one that breached the oil tanks and slowed Bismarck down, leaking oil, so that she had to head back to port (reduced range due to loss of fuel oil). Also, the leaking oil left a trail in the sea that helped the British find her.

Incredibly at 1:36 if you have the patience to advance the footage frame by frame (by VERY fast play / pause) you can in one frame see the actual incoming shell from HMS Prince of Wales as a tiny smudge just above the water surface a millisecond before it impacts the surface of the water and throws up an enormous waterspout in the centre right of the screen, near the end of the smoke plume from Bismarck's previous fired salvo. You may have to try a few times before you managfe to pause on the exact frame. I say incredible because I estimate that that 14' shell was travelling at approx 1500mph as it hit the water.

This is a historic treasure regardless of it's short length. It is a brief prelude to the immense drama that was about to occur. I personally have experienced naval guns in action. The projectile can actually be seen as it leaves the muzzle of the gun. With a good set of field glasses, the projectile can actually be seen skipping along the surface of the seas if it has found the limit of it's range without hitting the intended target. The North Atlantic is a rough ride and keeping the guns sighted is not an easy task.

@Cw Sayre The ships blowing up at Jutland was entirely Beatty's fault. He ordered the removal of flash protection doors to increase the rate of fire and ordered that ammunition and cordite be stored in the turrets. At Jutland he closed the range with the German battlecruisers when his larger guns had a clear range advantage. There was nothing wrong with those "bloody ships." The problem was his bloody command. Case in point HMS Tiger which took an absolute pounding at Jutland but because it's captain ignored Beatty's orders to remove flash protection it survived.

20-30 years ago I remember reading something based on reports from an observation of this battle that came to the conclusion that it wasn't a shell from the Bismarck that sunk the Hood, but instead a salvo from the Prinz Eugen, which had fairly powerful guns of her own. Don't remember the details and haven't seen it since, but it seemed convincing enough.

[@joakimwohlfeil]

It is true that Prinz Eugen scored the first hit and caused a fire in ready ammunition lockers on deck. It was suggested that the fire then spread down shafts all the way down to the after main magazine. Nobody will of course ever have the 100% proved full incident report, but the 203mm shell fire theory however includes so many coincidences that must have taken place so it´s generally seen as to unlikely. So most expert seems to stick with the good old Occam's razor theory (that the most likely scenario in nearly all cases also turns out to be the true explanation....)

can someone explain, the ship thats firing at 1:21 is that hms hood? being recorded from the other ship? or is that the bismarck? i am confused.

[@walterkronkitesleftshoe6684]

The ship at 1:21 is the Bismarck firing her 15" guns at HMS Hood whilst being filmed from the German heavy crusier Prinz Eugen.

[@acetech8642]

The sound effects of a beach in the middle of a ocean lol....

[@ascathon7069]

But, that is really the sounds you will hear when on a big ship, while cruising through high waves.

[@RandomlySelectedUserName]

its sounds of waves hitting Bismarck...

[@acetech8642]

@@ascathon7069 I cruised to Argentina with my biological grandma. Also cruised to Hawaii and the UK. I smoked so many cigs on the UK ship standing outside. And in the middle of the ocean, it sounded more like water bumping metal. Similar to the water that hits our detroit tanker in Michigan. I rode that too. This sound like the beach when I was in Florida. Cheers ppl.

[@Mightymite1]

The sounds are from Silent Hunter 3

Please, this is not 4K. It's VHS tape of 16mm film. If you had access to the original film and could do a frame by frame restoration, okay.

[@ThePizzaGoblin]

wow, fuck off dude. this guy is putting these restorations up for free and you're bitching about the quality of the film?

[@miu4826]

@@ThePizzaGoblin so Because its free u cant point something out? The title should state what it is,this makes it clickbaity ,but hey its free.... Its not in color either. It has a wierd huey filter over it like most of these "4k colored" movies on you tube.

[@jaybee9269]

If you search out footage from the Hood expedition (which found the wreck) they have some beautiful rare color footage of Hood. Also, of course, (have to be that guy) gun flashes would be seen before the reports are heard, because physics.

[@thomasjamison2050]

Interesting that the camera is on the Prinz Eugen, but the cameraman's ears are on the Hood.

[@tutekohe1361]

Imagine being on the receiving end of those hideous broadsides.

[@tommypetraglia4688]

Actually it was plunging fire which doomed the Hood with her decks choosen to be unarmored in favor of heavier topsides above the water

[@nerd1000ify]

@@tommypetraglia4688 That's actually a misconception. At the time when Hood was sunk she was so close to the Bismark that a deck hit was highly unlikely, and penetration essentially impossible (the shells would have hit at too shallow of an angle and bounced off). More probable that Bismark penetrated Hood's belt armour (which was not especially thick either).

[@joakimwohlfeil]

@@nerd1000ify That's a truly strange statement, @Tommy Petraglia actually gets it perfectly right. Hood had a insufficient deck amour while she actually in all was one of the heaviest armored battleships afloat regarding the rest of the armor schedule. Hood was definitely not a badly protected ship. The changes (decided as a consequence of Jutland experiences) in her construction from the original BC design added sometimes 100% thickness of armor. According to unanimous expert analytics the last turn of Adm Holland intended to bring Hood closer in to the German ships to not expose her decks, but rely on the better vertical projection to deal with flat trajectory fire. But instead a plunging shell hit before Hood was close enough. www.hmshood.com/reference/written/asnejournal32.htm

[@AWMJoeyjoejoe]

@@tommypetraglia4688 Just have to correct you there. Hoods decks were not unarmoured. She had 3 inches of deck armour above the magazines and vital areas. Might not sound like much but it was competitive with most battleships when she was built.

[@AWMJoeyjoejoe]

@@nerd1000ify Hoods waterline belt armour was 12 inches thick. Same as Bismarck's.

[@LordKingPotato]

Is there any video circling the net, of HMS Rodney smashing Bismark with one salvo?

[@anthrazite]

Not one salvo, it took a lot until it finally went down even though the Bismarck was a sitting duck with its destroyed rudder

[@LordKingPotato]

@@anthrazite "Bismarck's final battle on 27 May 1941, thanks to break-downs in King George V's guns, was essentially down to a ship-to-ship duel between Rodney and Bismarck between 0920 and 0954 hours. Rodney pulverised the German vessel"

[@anthrazite]

@@LordKingPotato Not a duel, more like a target practice

[@LordKingPotato]

@@anthrazite Read my first comment, then the second. Target practice or not, Rodney smashed Bismark with one salvo.

[@anthrazite]

@@LordKingPotato Still not one salvo xD

[@Ro6entX]

I heard stories from survivors of the Bismarck were cheering after the battle but shortly after, realized that those were fellow sailors being blown to bits, drowning, etc (likely had no idea that only three survived), and the British were gonna be pissed about losing the Hood. Seeing sonar imagery of hood wreckage is sad because it was torn to pieces on the way to the bottom.

[@livingfree9553]

how could they so far away

[@Richard-pe4cx]

there seem to be a lot of walter mitty characters here my grandfather fought the nazis so we have the freedom to express are opinions freely never forget the sacrifices made by a country pulled into a war who sacrificed so much for so many .

[@genes.3285]

Those were young men, little more than boys, young and stupid, being killed on both sides. Cannon fodder.

[@TheSamplebridge]

Probably one of the most historic naval clashes in history and there is great footage of it. It so eary how calm everything Is when only the big guns are firing. It's not like the pacific war footage where it's planes vs ships and rounds are being shot all over the place. it's just the slow salvos of the massive guns going off with water plumes landing nearby

[@CrazyMarcus571]

Gosh the sound effects from Silent Hunter 3/4 never get old

[@choobv2]

Totally agree with tjakal - if you’re going to fake the sound, at least get the timing correct.

[@veronicajuarez1614]

May 24, 1941, 5:55 AM. HMS Hood and HMS Prince of Wales begin to regulate fire with their artillery on the Bismarck and the Prinz Eugen. Admiral Lütjens orders to break contact and try to flee, as planned in the mission, avoid contact with the enemy fleet, just locate and destroy convoys. After a few seconds... The Captain of the Bismarck Ernst Lindemann: "I am not going to allow my ship to be shot from behind the ass!!, FIRE!!!!".

[@sargetLuffy]

Plot twist the first 30sec is real 4K and then it’s all a recreation made with legos

[@phantomwraith1984]

"From the mist, a shape, a ship is taking form!"

[@slavicboi8068]

And the silence of the sea about to drift in to a storm

[@Wambampy]

this is cool, but i have a few issues. first, the flashes sound like thunder, which isnt really a problem, just nitpicking. second, the flashes coincide with the boom. depending on the distance, the flash would be seen shortly before the explosion was heard. great vid!

[@mblaber2000]

Shouldn’t there be a delay between muzzle flash and report?

[@Mightymite1]

Some else edited the sound in.

[@CommanderSlayers]

I'm really surprised that the crew members of the KMS Prinz Eugen had the time to record what was going on. Maybe it's just me but this footage felt sorta empty without dramatic background music being played during the entire filming (sorry I've been watching to many WW2 movies). It was so quiet and the only thing you hear is the sound of their cannons firing. Btw if any of you are wondering, my profile picture is actually KMS Bismarck from Azur Lane

[@spitfire4sergi]

Imagine if some one on Prince of Wales was recording Hood during the battle.. would have been so close to the explosion he probably would have been knocked over

[@matafous3181]

Better camera then my in Nokia 15 years ago :D

[@pikkozoikum8523]

Are that originial recorded sounds?

[@theheavytonk928]

Pacific: Iowa vs Yamato Atlantic: *Sink the Bismarck!*

[@TideFishing]

*wAiT wHaT*

[@SIMONP1965]

The British were shocked at the speed witch the Hood was lost, what they diden understand as yet was the Gun Fire Control System the Bismarck was using was similar to the Iowa calss radar mk38 system witch was extreamly accurate and dident have to "zero in", if that lucky shot torpedo dident hit the Bismarcks rudder that ship would have caused hell in the Atlantic.

[@genes.3285]

It would have had to return to port anyway. It was losing too much oil due to a bow hit below the waterline from the Prince of Wales.

[@teddrewflack400]

It would have eventually met its same end to aircraft albeit a few weeks later . History tends to play out as it does

[@kuznetzov1990]

Para darle aún mas realismo al sonido de la batalla deberian considar el tiempo que tarda en escucharse los disparos del Bismarck en el Prinz Eugen, a esa distancia probablemente deberia tardar al menos 3 o 4 segundos en percibir los sonidos después de ver las salvas. Y aún se deberia agregar más sonidos de explosiones que estaria disparando el propio Prinz Eugen aunque eso no se vea en el video

[@xxxhoodooxxx]

Absolutely massive guns. Hate to be on either end of that, standing anywhere near those things firing must feel like getting hit by a train.

[@hyougawaganakimaru2138]

they aint that big compared to the *MEGA CHODES* the IJN was waveing around german 380 skc britbong 381s and IJN 410s for most of there fleet BBs except kongou sisters and then came the yamato sisters with the 460 I WANT HEAR THOSE IN ACTION tbh
