There's a horror game based on Story 6 called The Man of Medan. I had no idea it was based on an actual ship.

[@Gallant_Silver]

Went looking through the comments for one like this as soon as I heard the name of the ship.

[@kingamity1985]

i think the story was pr for the game Edit: naw b Iss real

[@ChaosRaych]

@@kingamity1985 I'm pretty sure the story came first. I looked it up after the video & found that actual historians have discussed its legitimacy. It's likely an urban (oceanic?) legend, but I doubt it was started by Supermassive Games as an underground campaign for the game.

It really is scary , imagine being lost in the Ocean. There is a movie called open waters.. No more movies like that one.

[@hildalanderos]

[@nagyviki993]

hilda landeros Oof same. I was terrified of swimming class in school because in elementary we were learning to hold our breaths underwater and the teacher thought my head wasn’t deep enough (I was underwater but not completely submerged) so he pushed my head down and held it there for a bit. Bad memories, I hated that class ever since. Not a good way to teach kids. F**k that teacher.

[@marcusjones6098]

Oh my God. I read the book on the USS Indianapolis. The Navy was so incredibly incompetent and had the audacity to blame the captain. The port the ship was supposed to show up at assumed the ship arrived, so they just marked it off as such, and that's why no one thought the SOS messages were real. So, the Navy besmirched his reputation.

[@jaredstiltner3042]

The wild thing is, the Japanese sub commander that torpedoed the Indianapolis actually testified on his behalf at his court martial, saying there wasn't anything the American commander could do to avoid the ship sinking.

[@marcusjones6098]

@@jaredstiltner3042 Yeah, 'cause the Navy was trying to say he wasn't doing some serpentine maneuver and the sub captain was like "that would have done nothing."

It's so nice to hear a story about the Ourang Medan/Man of Medan right as the game of the same name based on that story is coming out. I hope the game gives us something good since it's such a mysterious story without any real conclusion!

[@KarlPHorse]

Those family members who harassed captain McVey are actual scum. I know you’re hurting, but my sympathy can only go so far in terms of excusing shitty behavior.

[@amberv1617]

Story two hit me hard! I remember that like it was yesterday. I live in Mobile and that hurt everyone and everything by and around the water hard. Some of the people that helped clean up got cancer from it.

[@felicitysmith2213]

I hate it when they don't tell us what went wrong like with the underwater walking, was their a helmet leak or what?

[@Nodaimekage19]

Thank goodness my shift at work just got easier. Thanks Let's Read.

[@karas4009]

Ive tried underwater walking last year on vacation. We didnt have to use tanks but just the helmet because the water stopped just above the shoulder so there was air. I have a phobia of below the ocean and i thankfully didnt panic. I mean it was scary but i told myself to be calm. I enjoyed it. Didnt think of whatever could be swimming around me and took cool pictures🙂. But i wouldnt do it again.

This is my favorite intro!

[@pamelameckley7308]

I read about the USS Indianapolis in the July 2019 issue of Reader's Digest. What those men suffered was unimaginable and horrific. There were a couple of actual pictures of some these men right after their rescue and also shows two pictures of four of the twelve remaining 1945 Indianapolis crew greeting sailors on the new version of the USS Indianapolis, launched in 2018. The name of the article is "The Last Bad Day" by Doug Stanton. The introduction reads as follows: Survivors of the USS Indianapolis spent days bobbing in the sea, enduring sharks, blistering sun, and dehydration. How they conducted themselves in the water afterwards is an affirmation of life. 🛳️

[@scottphilippi2743]

I first heard of the USS Indy in the movie Jaws as a child, even then it was a horror of a short story.

[@shawnpanzegraf5642]

I remember watching Jaws the first time, and being disgusted by Quint’s obvious vendetta against sharks. Until the drinking scene, where he talks about the worst part being the moments right before his turn to be pulled from the water. May not be right or just, but I don’t have the gall to blame any of those sailors, if any of them decided to embark on a shark-finning or drum-lining career. Yeah, just predators following their instincts, rah rah. Bet it didn’t *feel* like that, watching a dozen man passed by, before your best friend started shrieking and bleeding, before being pulled down.

Maybe someone can help me here I'm looking for a specific story I believe I listened to on this channel, it was about someone giving a family member a ride at night. They pass some kind of phone booth I think and see some kind of pale and humanoid creature standing inside and they get a horrible feeling and drive off. When returning later on, it was gone. I remember really enjoying this story for some reason but I can't find it anymore...

crying about how story 4 is just the entire premise of raft

[@ggoob3020]

side note... things that kinda bother me with this story: 1) if the makeshift raft is attracting fish, the sharks wouldn't bother waiting to attack the guy. they'd just go for the easy prey? 2) how does a solar still slowly stop working? the simplest design is literally a cup, a big bowl, some kind of plastic, and a heavy object 3) i feel like it would take a WHILE for enough barnacles to attach themselves to a nylon raft so that plenty of fish start showing up.... not to mention the shear size of the raft needed to not only attract WHALES but also fisherman from god knows where? final rating: false tale 😤🤧
