Mauretania into Scrap Iron

[@dailydoseofsunshine2319]

The Mauritania. One of the greatest ocean liners of bygone era being scrapped. *music plays triumphantly*

[@AdekL1011]

This is the end of the Mauretania one of the finest ship that ever sailed the Seas....😢

[@Crispy99999]

That’s sad. The foremast being ignominiously felled like that. Urgh…couldn’t they have kept either it or Olympic for posterity?

[@gabrielmiller668]

That's a capital crime !

[@mr.juniii5523]

nope its not as the great depression took a toll to all shipping lines.

[@milainfj1283]

I wanna cry

[@ellymaury4585]

And to honor them both R.M.S Mauretania and The Sanos Mauretania I have decided in honor of them to name my Opel Insignia Mauretania soon she will have a licence plates with that legendary name and it will help me to remember them better and their name will live on forever. :)

[@wimspreeuwenberg2516]

I called my mercedes 300d after the nickname of the olympic

[@ellymaury4585]

@@wimspreeuwenberg2516 I have two opel cars: Opel Corsa D from 2006 called Lusitania, and Opel Insignia from 2011 called Mauretania - Maury. And someday when i will have Dudo Mercedes Benz 407d, 508d or 608d van i will name him TITAN (after the rms Titanic) :) Thank you for sharing this with me, at least im not alone 😊

[@Robert-ug5fp]

Hard to believe that this was approved, so many people signed a petition to save the Mauretania, she was one of the greatest ships to ever sail the seas. Olympic also. It should have been a crime

[@YinWhoo-zx2sz]

Should be a floating museum it would be amazing to walk on this vessel which has a rich history and splendid decor.

"IM NOT CRYING, YOU ARE!"

[@jancarlgalgao2708]

Rip legend we will never forget you

[@YinWhoo-zx2sz]

This grand design vessel should of been kept as a floating museum, her sister ship Lusitania was torpedoed in the first great war.

[@mtsproduction29]

Please, stop scrap the Mauretania!!!!!! 😭

[@Hendo56]

Winston Churchill saw storm clouds brewing over Europe, and said that the Mauretania should not be scrapped. The Great Liners provided immeasurable service during the First World War, and Churchill thought they might be needed again. But only Aquitania was spared.

[@rodolfonathanieljrangeles4316]

the Old Mauretania is Being Broken up in Resides, Naval Dockyard. So, Look Your last of this World-Famous ship. The Years, The Fastest Altlantic Liner. Now, are rapidly disintegrating hull. Here’s all that’s left of the Decks. With So Many Thousands of passengers have Pasted the plates are cut out And, hoisted overboard. So much scrap metal. The Anchor Chain is cut through and the anchor is dumped over the side onto the key. A souvenir for someone perhaps, this is the end of the Mauretania. One of the finest ships that ever sail the seas. And now the former mast brought down crashing down on the ruined decks. And Look Out, Look Out, We look out, no more. (00:13)

[@Jendraazhar2k24]

[@peterschorn1]

"THE DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT" Too bad they stopped there. I wanted to see footage of the Death Star.

[@suspiciousminds1750]

These videos are always a sad thing to see, almost like watching an execution.

[@Macenx8]

As much as I wish this ship wasn’t scrapped still she enjoyed her life as the grand old lady of the seas and held her blue ribbon for 22 years and many enjoyed sailing on her
