The Sewol, a South Korean ferry carrying mostly high school students, sank on its way to an island in the south, where the students were to undergo a traditional right-of-passage-style extended field trip. The story is both quite tragic due to the death-to-survival ratio, and rage-inducing due to the negligence and selfishness of the crew and the South Korean government - and, since the victims were mostly minors, I feel it one hundred percent deserves a spot in a video like this. Also look up the sinkings of the Arctic, the Atlantic, and The HMAS Sydney. The Britannic, one of Titanic's two sister ships (which had been recolored and re-outfitted as a hospital ship), also sank after a torpedo hit her. Though the death toll was quite low, a nurse was on board who had survived the Titanic sinking, and she apparently said that the Britannic was an even worse experience for her due to the particularly horrific nature of Britannic's deaths - mostly caused - quite directly - by her rear propellers.

Gordon Lightfoot’s song _The Wreck of the_ Edmund Fitzgerald, is a heartbreaking telling od the real-life story of the sinking of the SA Edmund Fitzgerald on November 10, 1975 in Lake Superior. All 29 of her crew, including her captain, Captain Ernest M. McSorely, were killed in the wreck somewhere near Whitefish Bay or Whitefish Point. The Mariners’ Church in Detroit used to annually ring a bell 29 times friom November 1975-November 2005, and last year, after Lightfoot’s death, they rang it 29 times yet again, and added 1 more for Lightfoot. Truly a heartbreaking story especially for all of us Michiganders.

I was onboard a boat that went over the wreck. It was announced over the public address when the boat was passing over the wreck. Not a single word was spoken and everyone was very still as the boat passed over the wreck. The sinking of the Fitz is still painfully felt in Canada and United States of America.

[@LITTLE1994]

The Wilhelm Gustloff was so unfairly overshadowed by the Titanic and Lusitania wrecks. The amount of deaths was unbelievable.

[@XxFlamexX14]

The reason why the ship is overshadowed is mainly because the Nazi tried to hide the real reason why it was sunk and were also hiding the fact that they were losing the war. So the ship went unknown for some time before more and more people discovered it. The reason the Titanic and Lustitania are well known is because they happened during a time of peace.

[@ThrillSeeker3524]

I think what makes the Titanic so historically significant is the status of the first class passengers, the nature of the sinking, the dichotomy of the rich and poor on board, the language barriers found in the signs, the confusing internal layout and the atrocious safety and mangement protocols. Still, the other tragedies are no less significant.

Titanic wasn’t a cruise liner she was an ocean liner. They are very different things. Cruise liners typically go to multiple destinations and end the voyage in the same port they are also meant for leisure. Ocean liners go from one point and end the voyage in another. They are not designed for leisure they are more like a city bus whereas a cruise liner is like a party bus. Also they did acknowledge the ice warnings because they changed course days before to avoid the ice field it was also normal procedure to continue at full speed until ice is spotted. Also a huge important note. The titanic was not going her full speed. A entire boiler room wasn’t even lit. The ice didn’t rip the hull open it buckled the hull plates opening gaps between the plates. The Titanic was never called unsinkable Olympic was called unsinkable and that was after Titanic sank. The reason passengers weren’t concerned was because the ship was sinking so slowly that they thought everything was fine. In this time it took ships under 20 minutes to sink. It took Titanic nearly 3 hours to sink. They also didn’t want to go out into the cold if it ended up being a false alarm. Nobody wants to be cold in a small boat in pitch black darkness when you have a warm lit up ship right there that you aren’t even confident is going to sink. Having enough lifeboats for half was standard procedure on every ship of the era. The boats were never intended to carry everyone they were meant to ferry passengers. The rescue ship also uses its boats to aid in an evacuation so two ships worth of boats was considered enough. The ship sailed with its original intended amount of boats the design with more was only for when laws changed. In fact they were only required to carry 16 boats but they put 20 on. Also more boats wouldn’t have even helped because they barely got the 20 they did have launched. Two didn’t even get launched they just floated off the deck. The owners didn’t say it would clutter the deck again it was always intended to carry 20 boats until the laws changed to require more. The boats weren’t full because passengers were not getting on deck due to the cold. The boats launched later on were full because people began to realize the severity of the situation. The chairman of White Star Line J. Bruce. Ismay actually ran around the ship urging passengers to get on deck and take it seriously. He also tried to help launch boats but the crew told him to step back and let them do it. The officers did know the boat capacity again they filled them with whoever was there. If nobody was left they launched.

[@RoarOfWolverine]

The USS Indianapolis will be forever remembered because of one of the greatest monologues ever delivered in a classic movie. Robert Shaw’s drunken telling of the story in Jaws is a chilling telling of the the event. The monologue was all the more believable because Shaw was actually dunking on at the time. Of course, he spent the entire movie intoxicated because he was an alcoholic, but a brilliant actor. He wasn’t even the first choice for the role of Captain Quint, but I can’t imagine any other actor in that role. Lee Marvin was Spielberg’s first choice, but he turned down the role. It seemed as if Shaw was born to play Captain Quint, probably his most noticeable role from every movie he was in. The fact that he wasn’t even nominated for an Oscar that year is a testament to how corrupt and political the Oscars had become many years earlier. It always seemed that any movie that was a blockbuster was always snubbed by the Oscars, where they usually select the more artsy fartsy films that few people watched or remember if they did.

The 2nd incident in this video, the MV Doña Paz, I was 6 years old during that time About 2 to 3 days after the incident, my family went to the beach (yes, we do go to the beach even in December) this was according to my mom as I don’t remember that day. Being in another major island, Negros Occidental, relatively nearer to the site of tragedy, my Mom suddenly yanked me out of the water as bloated corpses were being washed ashore the beach we were in. It was the talk of the town for weeks. All the camera film rolls have been consumed by that time so no picture were taken, but why would they. Some people’s lunches went out their entrance holes in a projectile manner due to the appearance of the corpses. Good thing I didn’t witness any of it as my mom told me and my brother to climb on the rear portion of our Jeep to play with our toys far from the shore.

[@SamHesselbeinTXA]

For the last one in shipwrecks, the USS Indianapolis wasn't sunk before, but instead AFTER its trip to Leyte Gulf; accurately discussed by Robert Shaw in the movie "Jaws", the Indianapolis finished transporting components for the Hiroshima bomb. The mission was so secret at the time that upon the surprise attack from the Japanese sub, no distress signal was given out. The only things that were accurate though were the amount of crewmen, the fact the waters were shark-infested, the number of days it took for the US Navy to realize the incident, and the amount of survivors being rescued from the ship itself.

[@oh8wingman]

I have to agree with you 100%. The Indianapolis was under radio silence so there was never and distress call sent out. That slight oversight in this video makes you wonder how accurate the other stories are.

The ferry MV Sewol sank on the morning of April 16, 2014, en route from Incheon towards Jeju in South Korea. Investigators found that on the day of the sinking, the ferry was dangerously overloaded with cargo, some of which was not properly secured in storage areas. When the Sewol undertook a sharp turn, some of that cargo shifted and threw the vessel off balance, an investigation found. Additionally, Sewol was carrying only 580 tons of ballast water, much less than the recommended 2,030 tons; this would make the vessel more prone to list and capsize. The crew had reportedly pumped out hundreds of tons of ballast water from the bottom of the ship in order to accommodate the additional cargo. Out of 476 passengers and crew, 304 died in the disaster, including around 250 students from Danwon High School in Ansan City. Of the 172 survivors, more than half were rescued by fishing boats and other commercial vessels that arrived at the scene approximately 40 minutes before the Korea Coast Guard (KCG). On May 15, 2014, the captain and three crew members were charged with murder, while the other eleven members of the crew were indicted for abandoning the ship.

[@lindabuck2777]

Accountability wow what a concept enacted justice, meanwhile …

[@philtkaswahl2124]

What happened to the captain of the Indianapolis , Captain Charles McVay III, was a travesty. The US Navy scapegoated him and accused him of incompetence for the sinking, despite the surviving crew testifying that he'd done all he could; he'd even refused to leave his ship until all other crewmen had. This resulted the captain getting misdirected hate from some of the families of the dead and later caused him to take his own life in 1968. He was only exonerated posthumously in 1996, after a decades-long effort by both surviving crewmen and the captain of the Japanese submarine, who contended that his foe had done everything that could have been expected of a captain and was disturbed at having unearned dishonor foisted upon him.

While it is often brought up when discussing the sinking of the Titanic, you are only getting half the truth. The other half is that the ship was labeled unsinkable by a journalist. Not the engineers, not the architects, not the builder of the ship. Rather, it was someone writing for a newspaper. Just like today the news industry has to sensationalize the stories they produce. Otherwise, their sales would decline and they would not be as profitable as they are. That journalist had never seen the plans, never made any calculation as to how the boat would float if water began entering the hall and merely jumped to a conclusion. It's been over 100 years, but the news industry has not changed one bit. They still sensationalize everything they present to you.

You asked if there are any other shipwrecks that can be added to the list. I don't know if this counts because most of the victims were on land, but how about the Halifax Harbour explosion? On December 6, 1917, The Imo, a ship traveling to Belgium with relief supplies, was steaming out of Halifax Harbour at full speed and on the wrong side of the harbour. It collided with the Mont Blanc, a French steamer heavily loaded with explosives and benzine oil for munitions bound for the battlefields of France. Mont Blanc's benzine was set ablaze by the collision and her crew abandoned ship. A few minutes later, the fire detonated the explosives onboard, resulting in the largest man-made explosion in history prior to the invention of the nuclear bomb. Most of the city of Halifax was destroyed, resulting in over 2000 deaths. Many thousands more were injured.

Oh why do you have to comment

Are you for real?

[@iliketrains3546]

The Halifax explosion definitely caused more damage than all of these. A ship carrying explosives collided with another in Halifax port. The explosives ignited, creating one of the largest non nuclear explosions in recorded history. This vapourised the ship, wiped out the town, and temporarily drained the harbour

The Indianapolis is used as a teaching method in the us navy. We use the tragedy of it to instill an understanding of sea survival as well as respect for the loss of life

[@lindsey4416]

The ship wreck on the Thames, is spookily like the collision also on the Thames between The Marchioness & Bow Belle. The Bow Belle was a large dredger, it collided with the much smaller Marchioness. The Marchioness was poorly lit, & if I remember correctly, she was on the wrong side of the river. The Marchioness was a party boat, & full of people. It happened in the late 80s, it was awful.

The Empress of Ireland sank in may 1914 in the St-Lawrence River in 15 minutes after a collision with a Norwegian Ship. Of the 1477 on board 1012 died but the tragedy was shadowed by the start of WW1.

[@northernmemaw4036]

Thank you for remembering, & sharing other horrid maritime tragedies. This is very informative & so heartbreaking.

[@Pfisiar22]

I'd like to point out that more lifeboats would not necessarily have saved more lives on the Titanic. They were barely able to launch all the lifeboats they did have. Also lifeboats were never meant to hold an entire ship's compliment while waiting for a rescue ship. Rather they were meant to act as ferries to rescue ships.

[@annemariemyburgh7252]

😂 ARE YOU SURE, is that the final answer, or would you like a call a friend😅

[@a-guy1912]

Correct

[@HeatherNickless-vt8zr]

Recent discoveries(from 4 or 5 years ago) suggests that the Iceberg was not the sole reason for the damage to the hull of the Titanic. Half the problems to each liner sink rates is either over compacity, negligence, unassessed left over underwater mines, and or being mistaken as an enemy warship, which was stupid of the enemy submariners. Seriously; How can a passenger ship be confused with a surplus warship? Ship collision is an even scarier death by sinking and drowning than the fate of the Titanic passengers, and yet it feels less haunting by comparison, I wonder why?

[@baraxor]

Sultana remains the worst shipwreck in American waters, but few other than Civil War buffs know about it. Because of the shifting river channel, the final resting place of Sultana is now under a cornfield.

If you think about it, percentage wise the OceanGate vessel Titan was deadlier than the White Star Line's RMS Titanic. Titanic had survivors; Titan had none.

Happy birthday to our esteemed narrator - Daddio & Mommio. Great job, as usual.

[@pacoliebling]

When I was a small kid my mom came up to me with a newspaper article about a big ship, asking me if I want to go on a mother and child trip. I was annoyed and couldn't even swim very good back then so I was not really keen on going on a ship trip or swimming and all that stuff. So we didn't go. The ship's name was Costa Concordia

[@Kit_3869]

The title of this video should actually be called: This video will give you Navaphobia(fear of boats)

[@canturgan]

The Estonia. Very suspicious sinking. Questions unanswered.

[@jenniferlapos9542]

Yeah. This year is the 30th anniversary of the sinking.😢

[@ZZZZEA]

The reason the titanic was more famous is because it was claimed unsinkable and was the biggest ship in the world at the time

[@tobys_transport_videos]

_Titanic_ did *NOT* have 2240 people on board. She had 2224 people. Mistake #1. The hull was not gashed, as suggested in this video. It was "punched" in several places, popping rivets. Mistake #2. The opening was quite small, but not continuous in the area suggested. Yes, there were 6 watertight compartments flooded, but not in the manner suggested. Had it been such a huge gash then the ship would have been lucky to last half an hour. *_PLEASE!_* do your research properly, and don't just make up things for clicks. That's clickbait, and gets you downvotes.

[@paulcarey191]

your video's are possibly the most entertaining hilarious vids i ever watched

[@Draykoswaft]

The consistency is crazy tho🔥

[@brianalambert1192]

Fun fact, the Essex was the inspiration for Moby Dick

[@will-i-am-not]

It is recorded that there was a fire in the coal storage, this happened on the opposite side to the dock, the side even turned red, but they put it out and kept quiet. This meant that the steel and rivets within this area had softened. This has become a possibility why the iceburg was able to only tear that section

[@NZer-t2i]

ffs the 3rd sinking left me bewildered - no radio and the crew were on the piss

[@CadianTrooper224]

With the Indianapolis you forgot to add incompetent radio operators who failed to pick up and send help

[@marcelharris6541]

This killed me you want to come to the cook out dawg

[@fboylan16]

Good list. General Slocum was the worst disaster in new York until 9/11 Empress of Ireland was a nasty wreck in the St. Lawrence river. Lusitania was just off the Irish coast, that was a bad one. Britannic was Titanic's sister, she hit a mine and sank in the Aegean sea just off Kos. only about thirty casualties but most got chopped up by the propellers.
