The Mysterious Deformed Sub of WW2

[@jessemontanez4661]

Remember ppl, this is a account of heros .just because the visual interpretation is not what u want it's a story of my fellow military bros who sacrificed themselves for us to be here speaking.. RIP my veterans.. ❤😢

[@gregjokonis1776]

Now stop, they have to be able to complain about something.

[@greasercody01]

Amen..

[@4OHz]

It’s your narrative mate that makes it so worthwhile - I’m not to concerned about the visual components.

*I had a great uncle, born in 1926, who went to France in 1944 in the US Army. He sent a letter before he left to my grandmother, his sister, who was only 9 at the time. That was the last time they ever heard from him. His body/dog tags were never recovered and my family never knew what happend to him. He just disappeared into history. My grandmother is still alive and has dementia now, but her long term memories are still intact and she brings him up all the time now. She talks about how her parents were never the same again after that.*

She and her crew served valiantly

[@texas66]

There are several WW2 submarines that have become museums. I think everyone should tour one to realize exactly how brave (or crazy) these men had to be to go into the open ocean in such a cramped boat with half the world looking to sink you without a chance of survival.

[@zertoil]

This story would make a great movie and with the mysterious disappearance would leave a cliff hanger that can't be answered.

[@stephenjudd8287]

She was a hunter killer of submarines and cladstine missions. The highest scoring r n sub of ww2.

[@geneotrexler8246]

Good video 👍

[@SlingbladeJim]

Maybe some deep sea operation will stumble onto the sub some day

[@jellysquiddles3194]

Hopefully, the mediterranean sea isn't that big.

[@amadeusamwater]

24 war patrols seems like a lot until you consider how much more constricted her patrol area was.

[@scottwhitmire6577]

Thanks, professor. Puts some pieces together.

[@knightmarethe1st]

Great video, it's sad that what might have killed them was poor upkeep on their sub. Seems like a sub should have priority in repairs considering it has to operate under so much water pressure.

[@michaelcox7564]

Why is it when discussing a U class British Submarine the majority of pictures where of German U Boats, the rest with few exceptions where American Boats?

[@MrTangent-8]

Those German subs may have been photos of the group 1/batch1 U-Class

[@peterholmesgavleman]

Agreed. Don’t treat your audience - that contributes to your KZbin income - as idiots!!

[@johncook3817]

Rest in peace brave men of the ROYAL NAVY!

[@jthiker9945]

If lost to a mine the wreck would be in shallow water. Hard to believe that since the end of the war it hasn’t been found.

[@constitutionalUSA]

A mine broke loose from it's mooring was not unusual

[@billbrown6889]

Guess I missed why the sub was deformed

[@HoustonRoad]

Additional torpedo tubes. Was removed on newer versions 👍

[@gregjokonis1776]

You did, explained at the beginning

[@beerdrinker6452]

4 bow internal 21 inch torpedo tubes. 2 bow external 21 torpedo tubes (hence funny bow). Made her difficult to "drive". Discontinued in subsequent production.

[@jerrylagesse9046]

She sure earned her keep in cold war

[@iKvetch558]

Um...quick note...the cutaway drawing at 2:00 is the sub class that began launching in the 1980s...the Upholder S40. You really should not use it for the WW2 Upholder S37.

[@seanbaines]

Exactly. And 15 seconds later, they are showing a T class sub. And those shots of "liners" guarded by destroyers were merchant vessels and battleships. Just random war footage, really.

[@well-blazeredman6187]

An appalling error. I won't bother watching the rest of the video.

[@MrTangent-8]

​@@seanbaines Upholder is a group 2 U-Class submarine, the group 2s had the bulbous bow

[@seanbaines]

@@MrTangent-8 Ah. Thank you. Oddly enough, I had only seen the images of the far more common later series. I don't know the U class as well as the S and T boats, the latter of which also had bulbous bows. Something learned. Still a lot of really sloppy image choices in this thing.

[@MrTangent-8]

@@seanbaines yeah I’ve found content from this channel in terms of quality is slowly decreasing

[@GThomas-q1e]

Wait a minute. 400,000 tons? I'm reading one source says 128,000 tons and another says 133,940 tons. Still another says 129,529 tons. But no matter. After 25 patrols, the crew thinking after this cruise they're going home, and then all hands lost. Horrible way to die.

[@drmarkintexas-400]

🎖️🏆⭐💪🙏❤️‍🩹 Thank you for sharing this

[@rtyrsson]

I've certainly been critical of some of the videos in the "Dark" series of channels, but this one was brilliantly done! Thank you for honoring these magnificent submariners.

[@aa64912]

Should have went after the destroyer first

[@seanbaines]

The visuals on this video are not very accurate. Many of those pictures are not of Upholder. There's a T class in there. There's a 1990's Upholder class in there. The pictures of warships are random battleships and merchant vessels. And that's just in the first 2 minutes. I'm not going to bother with the rest of this thing, even though I love Wanklyn and Upholder's story, because I seriously question the scholarship if these are the sorts of inaccurate images being used.

[@HoustonRoad]

This is normal for this channel. They get the general information. Inaccurate photos is par for the course. Im still glad these stories live. It’s about the people, the real hero’s.

[@AkiWataru]

sure do better lol

[@John-y5i3l]

Let alone the fact that there images of hordes of Free French sailors appearing all over the place. They could have least got the sailors nationality right!

[@kululv]

you did not address the "deformed" hull!

[@anthonybaxter255]

Perhaps if your background shots show more of British subs than american if would be more interestiong.

[@rgould1713]

'left-tennant' for a brit please!

[@WybooHarry]

Wait, first the destroyer was 400 yards away. Then the sub closed to 1,000 yards. What kind of math is that. How did we win the war?

[@jimhrn8522]

How do you dive deep in shallow waters? Or did i miss something?

[@billpetersen298]

With steely determination.

[@jimhrn8522]

@@billpetersen298 and a pointy bow😁

[@anthonypert574]

Err as deep as possible

[@donloghry3226]

Bos said make a submarine called the Upholder. Staff replys a submarwhat?

[@shaunmcclory8117]

"Clear Mediterranian waters"...now i'm wondering why i've never seen a camoflaged submarine!?🤔

[@montigobear]

Drinking game: a shot each time the same scene is repeated. Put Uber on speed dial first.

[@anthonybringolf]

You keep on saying HMAS ship. HMAS is an Australian ship not a British ship.

[@John-y5i3l]

Lots and lots of French sailors, no idea why

Please quit cluttering your programs with random, irrelevant videos.

[@MattEdwards-s9j]

Why don't you go find a hole to go crawl in. Idiot

[@Freebird67]

And you show yank subs really

[@JosephThomas-t3n]

I doubt there thousands of photos/videos to pic from if it's a 1 offb

[@D.A.B-w7n]

Usable footage, I consider them all Allied subs, not Yank or Limey.

[@brucegibbins3792]

It's not as though specific images relitive to the documentary are falling off trees in abundance. Try to be a bit more understanding and enjoy the film for what it is. Documentaries covering Royal Navy Submarines are not in abundance on YT, Mostly UBoats by a long measure.

[@seanbaines]

And they also use images that specifically supposed to be of Upholder according to the narrative, but are of the British 1990's Upholder class, and shortly after, of a T class submarine. There are actually a lot of images of U class subs from the war. From what I have seen so far, not many were used!

[@FAMUCHOLLY]

This guy is a fraud. He makes content using clips that have NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SUBJECT OF THE VIDEOS. It's DELIBERATELY misleading.
