So la visite en 2004, fue muy imoresionante. Estoy triste que ella se fue entera. Descanse en paz. Saludos del caribe. La pelicula esta bien hecha

[@daviddelacroix8686]

Yo la visité en 1998, era muy pequeño, 8 años, si tuviera los 33 que tengo ahora entraría, pero en 2006 ya desapareció al completo

I remember the ship well when it was AUSTRALIS with Chandris Lines sailing into Sydney, Australia. A sad end to a once happy ship.

[@matthewcox6615]

The American Star is a classic example of nature over technology. Nature is powerful.

[@richardgroening6960]

This is an amazing video. Thank you!

[@matthewcox6615]

A fitting end for something that was built for the sea.

[@wq6737]

She was a wunderfull ship and she died in Freedom. Her life was the sea and in her dead SHE WENT IN THE SEA. She let not beeing scappt, she died in honour. So, I hope, she was happy. She had a free soul !

Exelente video

[@matthewcox6615]

All wasn't lost. The locals of Fuerteventura removed everything from on board and gave them a new use. Parts of the ship live on.

Bellissimo

Verdade amo esse navio ele era lindo uma pena ter acabado assim

[@gregsbiplays9899]

More like the power of bad management

[@douglasvonfreund8945]

6:17 Did they somehow get lights on the ship or is that the Sun coming threw the windows ? I wonder if people tryed to live on her before she broke apart .Great video.

[@franciscojperez6119]

Thank you for your comment, a greeting from Spain, a lot of health.

[@douglasvonfreund8945]

@@franciscojperez6119 All the best thanks for replying .Great video Francisco .👍

[@matthewcox6615]

I believe it was part of an art display in the late 90s. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were people living on the wreck.

[@danielgladwin9345]

Her sister ship the ss United States is docked in Philadelphia. Sad end for the ss American star

[@megamichael4021]

I live in Philadelphia

[@beboy12003]

Amazing how people was able to board the vessel.

[@lelandshaw8694]

It's so heartbreaking to see the interior. RIP SS American star

[@hyperhurracan1324]

cool cruise ship

[@matthewcox6615]

It was once the largest passenger liner built in the United States and was extremely luxurious to sail on.

[@matthewcox6615]

I’ve heard that at least 8 people have been killed trying to get on board the American Star.

[@andreagabrielle5760]

Cuánta pena !!!

[@johntebo8870]

Yes nice ship to bad it wrecked where it did mother nature is reclaiming her way to fast

[@torsten1125]

I like this ship an saw her wreck on Fuerteventura 3 times, a great experience. Unfortunately the people living on Fuerteventura were and are not very clever and business-minded, when they plundered the wreck. And still not today. So many valuable items had been taken, including remaining art and furniture, masses went into the rubbish later, and expected thousands of items are still hidden on Fuerteventura, but never sold on modern platforms like eBay. It seems the people on Fuerteventura still doesn't know, that almost EVERYTHING from the famous ship can be sold as reminder pieces, and some items like brass portholes and so on could be sold for quite much money. Perhaps somebody should give them a hint. 😊

Seguerro que albondigas!

[@matthewcox6615]

I've been there, very sad what happened to her.

[@stealthysam7761]

The tide just ate her away

[@nlikos180]

Lots of tide and wave ate her away and its already gone for now but still some in underwater.

[@Traaseth92]

I would love to see the wreck today..Sadly its all gone

[@saarland2china]

Very impressive!! When I was there in 2017 it was all gone. But I checked out a lot of other lost places on Fuerteventura, you might wanna check out my library

[@DeansVideoClips]

Very sad, I sailed on her on the biggest adventure of my life as a child many years ago.

[@saarland2china]

You're lucky! Nice!

[@superadio1]

DeansVideoClips Yeah, I would imagine was some fantastic experience for a young boy

[@torsten1125]

ALMOST all is gone, but not everything. In the autumn of 2021, there were still some very few remaining parts of the wreck above the water line. Of course to see that, it was (is) necessary to visit the beach at minimum ebb tide. It might be boring for people which haven't seen the wreck in former years, but my family and me were happy to see that not everything was gone in autumn of 2021. Therefore I have also corrected the wrong information on Wikipedia, German language version.

[@frankgonzalez2740]

La American Star femenino. El varco era Americano.

[@looneylozzer]

Spanish locals stole the artwork and a lot of the ships artefacts.

[@matthewcox6615]

The ship was settled as a total loss and the locals just needed bits from the ship. I have a few rusted parts from the wreck.

[@chrisjeffries2322]

Good for them, it would have just sunk with the ship,

[@serpentine1084]

Could you do a diving video diving down to see whats left?

[@matthewcox6615]

Serpentine Now that I would like to see, but apparently it is very dangerous to just swim there due to very strong rip currents on the west coast of Fuerteventura.

[@matthewcox6615]

Serpentine Say I think that I've found something very interesting! I've found some remarkable footage taken in 2013 of the wreck underwater and there's still a lot down there, check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnK7Y4qJYr9kea8
