This video about the sinking of the RMS Lusitania is an absolute masterpiece thank you ❤

[@LambdaCherry]

Jack this may be your best animation yet. in addition to best animation, you absolutely GRILLED AND BARBEQUED with the sound design! I found myself genuinely so disturbed hearing those screams in the Lusitania interior shots. I also love those shots in the final plunge that put you seemingly in the perspective of a bird flying over Lusitania. So many moments caught me off-guard, like the second explosion, the graphics of the smoke, and the inclusion of the elevators stopping. I would say fantastic work but this is work indescribable with the English vocabulary. Keep this up, Mr. Gibson!🎀💝💝

@@F-Man. Illegally attacked? Not sure about that. Many people believe the second explosion was caused by war-time munitions, illegally carried by the Lusitania, exploding. You know who Does know? The British government. One hundred plus years, and they still clam.

[@imagaybanana2004]

Jack, this is easily your best work yet! The smoke and water effects look incredible. I also like that you added a slight film grain. It makes it feel as though it were filmed in real life with a real camera. I also love the aerial shots, especially during the final plunge, they almost feel like they’re being filmed from a helicopter. It reminds me of the footage of Oceanos sinking. And you absolutely ate with the sound design!!!! I was so surprised when this premiered lol I was not expecting a whole new real time animation, considering your last one was only earlier this year with Mike’s documentary, but it was a very pleasant surprise! Keep up the good work! Cheers! 💕💕

[@Planefan1000]

I believe in the "Lusitania: Terror at Sea" movie that Captain Schweiger mentions that he only aims to fire one torpedo and give _Lusitania_ "a bloody nose" as it were. So when he sees how the ship is foundering, he is in total shock. They also said that _Lusitania_ could be outfitted to be an auxiliary cruiser or troop transport as with other Cunard ships.

[@Jonah-g9g]

They did it with Mauretania but sadly not with Lusitania

[@RichardTClark396]

Can rest assure he’s in the pit of hades for that murderous act!

[@calebmcfarland8407]

@@RichardTClark396 As I am saddend for this loss as much as the next person, you have to remember that this is war time. The British weren't innocent in this as they were carrying weapons and ammo on board. As it is tragic for the massive loss of innocent lives and one of the greatest oceanliners in the world, I feel like in the situation of the captain of U-20 the decision to "damage" or "sink" RMS Lusitania was as justified as much as sinking an enemy ship during war time can be.

[@shaynewheeler9249]

Titanic

[@wyoplays]

​@@calebmcfarland8407 Wars are driven and decided by logistics and supply, and given the nature of events that brought Britain into WWI, combined with the unprovoked attacks by german naval forces on merchant ships, I dont think its fair to say Britain is "equally guilty." Britain had a duty to protect itself and the countries they gave oath to, particularly Belgium, which had attempted to stay out of the war until Germany forced them into it, dragging the UK with. They had to do what they had to do against a conflict they did not want, against a country that did not care. Im sure there are plenty of cases were allies are guilty for the deaths of innocent men and women to gain an advantage in the war. This wasnt one of them.

[@Ironclover-Composer]

[@peterkropotkin6224]

What makes the RMS Lusitania a tragic tale isn't necessarily the loss of life of innocent civilians. It's not because it was a war crime (at least today it would be). It's because in -- the end -- it all really came down to very bad luck. The ship just so happened to travel right into Schwieger's line of sight just perfectly, and he admitted had Turner not not turned towards the sea from the coast, he probably would have not been able to make the shot. In any other type of encounter, the Lusitania would probably have been able to evade any torpedo run.

[@whillard2447]

Yes, it’s very unfortunate :(

I like that you used a WWI submarine; way too many Lusitania animation creators use WWII Type VII submarines to represent U-20. Even though the Type VII does not resemble the old-fashioned U-Boats. The particle effects are also beautiful.

Excellent animation. Word is the U-boat captain thought he was firing on the HMS Mauritania, a well known troop transport, and the Lusitania’s sister ship. He was horrified when he realized that he had sunk the wrong ship.

[@Ltcol2004]

I bet he was.hes in torment for this

[@whillard2447]

His logbook states that he did recognize Lusitania, and stated that he ordered to open fire on her - however he didn’t thought that a single torpedo would do such damages to her, the torpedo officer stated that this kind of destruction was unusual - they apparently didn’t intend on sinking her, but just give her a 'bloody nose'

[@Istealbonez]

I don’t believe this is true, as it’s been said that they targeted the ship due to their suspicions of the ship carrying munitions (it was carrying munitions) He didn’t “accidental sink the wrong ship” he purposefully sunk it, and Germany later had to apologized for it.

[@whillard2447]

@@Istealbonez They stated that she carried weapons, even though they had no idea she was - it was just in order to put the blame on the British over this war crime While it did ended being true, the germans had no idea it was And no, Schwieger knew who was the ship he was targeting - it was just pure luck if she landed perfectly in his sight

[@careylowell]

The Capt tried to beach the ship but the forward motion just pushed water in at a faster rate. In a war zone, the ships portholes should have been shut. This might have given her an additional 10 or 12 minutes on the surface.

Hello Jack! As always, wonderful work. It just keeps getting better and better.
