Ernest Shackleton’s Ship Endurance Found

[@thedalillama]

Shackleton took two years to rescue his crew. The first 9 minutes of this video are meant to replicate that eternity.

[@patchmack4469]

well i'm glad someone explained this video, as i found it a waste of my time (apart from last minute or so), i wanted to see all round the ship as much as was possible, she is as well preserved in these waters as could be from the time she was lost if ever she could be recovered, i'm all for it, she was and still is very important from any point of view, maritime, and so on, her history continues with bated breath, but alas i feel our technology to be able to recover something that large and to some extent fragile is still some way off - any one remember the Mary Rose extraction? - Endurance needs real kitten gloves, perhaps removal of all contents followed by a detailed survey, much 3D modelling as an aid, and then a very specialised device to cradle her, and hold her together, i might assume her ballast might need to be removed, and working in such marsh conditions will be a massive feet of engineering, not to mention Endurance but we have pulled aircraft from below glaciers and many other incredible feets, never say never they say, lets hope they don't pull her to pieces and ruin a fine wreck

Endurance indeed. The condition it's in today, this ship certainly lives up to it's name.

[@sid2112]

Endurance is watching this entire video for the last 70 seconds.

[@kevinwilkinson7558]

Was excited to watch but like everyone else said. 8 minutes of a ship going through ice, a minute of them launching the sub, and a whole whopping minute of the ship. Thank God I could fast forward

[@felixcat9318]

One can only imagine the excitement, astonishment, disbelief and incredulity if the Crew of Endurance were to see this polar research and expedition vessel in detail. Not only would the new technology amaze them, the quality of life aboard this vessel would utterly astound them! In just over a century, the changes in literally every aspect of life are barely comparable. To show the Endurance Crew a Garmin InReach Mini2 satellite messenger and explain that they could write messages to anyone, anywhere in the world at anytime and recieve them back almost immediately, get accurate weather updates or send an SOS message would be utterly incomprehensible to them! So much has changed, and done so to a remarkable degree that its hard to believe that just over a century separated these expeditions!

[@sid2112]

We sure saw the research ship, for like 9 and a half minutes.

[@veramae4098]

Just watched one episode of a PBS series on McMurdo station; I'd stumbled on the food episode! They have to plan a year ahead, 18 months for safety, order everything, and its all delivered at once. "Food is morale" One of Robert Scott's camps is nearby and it's been preserved, untouched.

[@tippyc2]

The footage you came here for starts at 9:27

[@edkiely2712]

That ship still is in good shape considering it's been over 100yrs! Hopefully there was a documentary team on the ship and we will be seeing something in the next year or two on public television about this discovery that describes how it was discovered, the 'mapping' of the ocean floor, along with some additional footage!

That breaking of the ice wouldn't be that calming to anyone on lower decks of the ship: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2XQdGdmaqpphac

I wonder if somewhere deep in that hold are still some of Frank Hurleys photographic plates that he couldn't recover before the ship sank. What an incredible Time Capsule that woulod be .

Why are you in China teaching, and what are teaching?

[@pcs9518]

At 9:27 the ship definitely lives up to its name

[@vandalorianvandalorian4769]

Thanks George for informing us to FF to the good footage of the Endurance. So well preserved. It should be raised and placed on exhibition.

[@patrickmchose7472]

Yes - She is beautiful and should be raised. Her story rivals the Titanic but in a better way.

[@glennjames7107]

Usually, when wooden boats, or any other wood structures are preserved in water like this they react very negatively to being removed from the environment they are preserved in. After being raised, and brought ashore, the wood will begin to dry, and as the wood dries it will immediately start to basically disintegrate. Most historically significant boats that have been raised from similar conditions have their own designated pools that they are kept submerged in for these reasons. Which can be a very costly endeavor.

[@richhughes7450]

​​@@glennjames7107 The 400 odd year old Mary Rose was kept moist by water spray and a polyethylene glycol to preserve the ship for about 20 yrs. It was left to start drying out in 2013. So it can be done. Date say it won be cheap but history is worth it

[@davidrhp847]

It took endurance to wait this long for the actual underwater parts!!

[@mikelong9638]

Nah. Just kept skipping ahead.

[@neil7813]

Shackleton's expedition is an incredible story of survival and beautifully documented with photos.

[@JasonWaden8r]

The water literally acts as an embalming fluid. Preserving the body of the ship for eternity :) I love when discoveries like this are made!

[@raymondhutchinson7156]

I would equate it more to a giant freezer or icebox. The cold temperatures limit the amount of marine organisms that can survive in that environment. Depth also plays a role because the deeper you go , the less originated the water is.

[@kylewood8327]

Just remarkable the shape she’s still in! This was one of the “very few” books I couldn’t put down once started.

[@devonmartinski6596]

How those guys survived is unbelievable.

[@patrickradcliffe3837]

Amazing how well preserved she is compared to other wrecks.

[@franklinmint7394]

To see it on the bottom from the first drone shot shows how clear that water is,amazing 💧

[@Dogonatree]

You could have just made a video about icebreakers

[@sonnyd.6777]

I did a hundred things and went back to still see that ship cruising

[@Kit_Bear]

9:29 Thank me in another lifetime for saving your time here. Quite well preserved. They should raise it considering the technology we have now.

[@Mrcaffinebean]

I thought the same thing, and since their are no dead aboard their is no complications that would normally be added there. But unfortunately the Shacklton family seems to be against it for some reason. So it seems unlikely.

[@raymondhutchinson7156]

There could be issues with raising her regardless of the tech we now have. I can be dangerous to do large scale projects in artic conditions. If you can get around that and the costs it can create, you then have potential issues with preservation. The wood of the ship has been in underwater conditions for over a century, If that water evaporates too quickly ,the fibers will deteriorate and the wood will shrink and warp. If the right technique to treat the wood is not found ,She could wind up in similar conditions to other raised wrecks like the Vasa. With the vasa, Her wood was treated with a solution to replace the water, but the process didn't penetrate the core of the wood. The vasa is now structurally half as strong as she was and the woods center has now disintegrated. Not to mention preservation of multiple types of materials that make up the ship that decay with different conditions when compared to each other.

[@ahmadnaser8192]

If only we could see the crew's reaction to this footage. Wouldn't that be amazing?!

[@ATGRC]

I have such a weird connection to this ship, I did a deep research project on her and her crew and presented it days before the announcement it was found

[@chrisjeffries2322]

Wow what a trip, good to see how and where it was found.

[@Ivaneck_]

This video is delicious. This aside of the event's significance. No words needed for this.

Perfect footage to be enjoyed after reading Mensun Bound’s “The Ship Beneath the Ice.”

[@mvtv-montanavigilantetv5976]

After reading about Shackleton's expedition and the Endurance, a name forever defining the whole crew, I came away dazed with many revelations and wonders, the underlying lesson being I have and will wave NO REASON to bitch about anything. Everyone should be aware of this human triumph ... touching us to this day with the ship herself. Well done.

[@huntergreene2827]

[@mgw075]

9 and a half minutes of looking at the inside of my freezer before seeing the Endurance

Amazing video of the wreck after 9 minutes and change of fluff. Lost chance at showing viewers how well preserved the ship was.

Wow so cool to see full intack old shipwreck from old days

[@jamesoliver6625]

The actual relavant video starts approximately 5:30 in, FYI. Actual view of the wreck approximately 9:30.

[@livetotell100]

Very well preserved. Considering it was down there a 100 years. Probably due to the deep depth and cold water.

[@samp7003]

I found the National Geographic book about the expedition and have been reading it. This is so amazing to see after so many years!

[@robertordewald8678]

Jump to 6 minutes if you don't want to watch a Icebreaker moving ever so slowly across the ice. The condition of the endurance is truly amazing I wonder how deep she was? I wonder if it could be raised off the bottom I know it's broken up somewhat but it appears to be quite complete. I think that would be very exciting. Thanks for sharing Bob from Virginia USA

[@matthewmosier8439]

I think another commenter said she's at 10,000 feet.

[@JasonGarber-n9y]

They should bring that beautiful wooden ship back up and restore it , that would be awesome !

[@martinconnerty1201]

Really disappointed. Thought after the footage of the icebreaker I'd see 20minutes of footage of the Endurance. Honestly...

[@iansummers6945]

Yip, the Endurance has endured an amazing journey and resting place. Can’t wait for more footage and even an animation of her final hours. 🤔

[@dinkojopia4778]

Luis Alberto Pardo Villalón (Santiago, September 20, 1882-ibid, February 21, 1935) was a Chilean sailor, who was in command of the Yelcho cutter ship of the Chilean Navy, which carried out the difficult rescue of the shipwrecked of Ernest Shackleton's famous British scientific expedition that spent eight months on Elephant Island (Pilot Pardo Islands, South Shetland), on August 30, 1916, in the middle of the Antarctic winter. I saw Natgeo and I consider it miserable that they do not mention the Chilean capital Luis Pardo Villalon was the one who found them.

[@docmach8794]

So about 9 1/2 minutes before there is an actual shot of the Endurance. Kudos.

May I suggest that you read the book " Shackelton" by Sir Ranulph Fiennes. EPIC!

[@استاذدانيال]

Are any of you aware that the crater at the south pole of the moon is called Shackleton Crater, and of course was named for the captian of Endurance. It's the crater where the first lunar base is planned to be established because it's believed that water ice can be found there, for producing potable water, creating oxygen, and developing rocket fuel by separating the hydrogen from the oxygen.

[@signjoey]

More footage of Endurance and less of Agulhas...thanks

[@LorneVignettes]

Watching the ship 🚢 in a land of nowhere really shows how terrifying it must have been when Shackleton gave the order to abandon ship 🚢.

[@meatpopsicle1567]

Okay, go directly to 9:28 if you want to see Endurance. The rest of the video is a waste of time. 10 minutes, 53 seconds apparently wasn't nearly enough time to actually show more of Shackleton's legacy other than the little snippet of video at the end.

[@jaydave1246]

9:27 Just jump here to get directly to the Endurance underwater footage. You're welcome.

[@pluto5991]

It must have been extremely cold there for Mensun Bound . Didn’t seem to complain though , as much as he did the time he had to walk from the garage back to his house , just because the nanny was looking after his youngest son who had a fever , plus his other two sons . Scowling man caused a lot of pain ( that has been conveniently forgotten. ) Didn’t he say his life would go downhill if he found the Endurance ( with the help from his big team ) ? Wow, three adult children who now could have families of their own …. Isn’t that something to look forward to? He may be an intelligent brilliant underwater archeologist, but he has no reality and is a bit of a dimwit .

[@phillipspark7255]

How had the ship managed to stay in such good shape ? Very interested to know

[@forceablepizza764]

this is bullshit making people watch an 11 minute video for 70 seconds of footage on the actual subject of the video. this is borderline clickbait

No one is doubting the work and logistics that went into the expedition, but that isn't the point of the video. The point of the video is the found ship itself. Having more than half of it be drone-footage of the ship that found said ship is misleading to say the least.
