Hi Mike, I was just wondering if you have a video about the RMS Carpathia sinking in 1918? I’m writing a book series about ship sinkings in the 20th-21st Century it and I need as many facts as possible :)

You have to admit, compliments to whichever officer was able to convince a third crew to get on the submarine that had already killed not just two previous cruise, but it’s creator as well. That’s one hell of an impressive charisma check.

[@RadeonX0X]

I think the fact they were being economically strangled and desperate for any sort of win also helped. Plus, risky or not, perhaps the honor of crewing and attacking with the first ship of its kind was also tempting.

My dad is a Civil War historian and also big in Civil War re-enactments. I had the privilege of going to Charleston for the burial of the Hunley crew. I was just 14-15 at the time but I presented the colors on the first cannon that was fired in the cemetery where they were laid to rest. Pretty cool getting to actually be involved with this. We got to go in and see the Hunley and the contents of what was in the pockets of the soldiers that were pulled from their watery grave.

I got to see the Hunley in Charleston in a few years ago. It's a very eerie sight, at the bottom of the pool where it is preserved. Another interesting abandoned ship is the Ocean Dream off the coast of Thailand. I was a passenger on that ship in 1994. I think most of the wreck above the water has been removed now, but there's some pretty cool drone footage. It was one of the original ships from the Love Boat series.

[@andrewp8284]

Given how Hunley was an almost unmitigated disaster, it’s kind of surprising it didn’t effectively kill the sub concept altogether. At least for military usage, for quite some time. Then again maybe the advent of the whitehead/self propelled torpedo helped, since it eliminated the whole ramming/spar torpedo aspect. It doesn’t guarantee you’ll waste an entire sub and crew for maybe sinking 1 enemy ship! By the 1880s Nordenfelt subs had torpedo tubes.

[@McLarenMercedes]

"Given how Hunley was an almost unmitigated disaster, it’s kind of surprising it didn’t effectively kill the sub concept altogether." 1. It was a mere footnote in the history of the American Civil War. Few saw it as a headline disaster. 2. By this time different European nations had already taken the concept of the sub further. Take the French submarine Plongeur for instance. It was designed *before* the Hunley, used a reciprocating engine powered by compressed air to propel itself forward (the Hunley was hand-cranked by humans), had a displacement of 420 tons and was 45 meters long (146 feet). Hunley by comparison was 6,8 tons and 12 meters long (40 feet). While never used in wars it worked in testing, and above all didn't flood and kill its crew. While on display Plongeur actually inspired Jules Verne to write "Twenty Thousands Leagues under the Seas. 3. Different engineers and inventors worked *independently* from each other in different countries. All of them had their own studies and followed their own research along the lines of others before them. The Hunley was just another tangent or blind sidetrack and certainly wasn't the end of the line station. Several parallel projects existed before, during and after the Hunley. "it’s kind of surprising it didn’t effectively kill the sub concept altogether." Not at all. When it comes to inventions there is always new inventors and pioneers willing to develop a concept further. When has a failure of one party *ever* held others back from trying to do better?

[@Roger-fs5yo]

​@@McLarenMercedesI tend to agree with this. The thing about the Hunley is it proved that underwater warfare was indeed possible. The Germans took what Hunley and those that came before him did and perfected this technology, and put it to good use during the first world war👌

[@TheEmeraldMenOfficial]

Correction: Submarines were part of warfare as early as 1776, with the submarine “Turtle”. It was built for the future US Navy during the American Revolution, but never saw combat: she was destroyed after sea trials due to the risk of capture. Turtle probably would have been safer than the H.L. Hunley, oddly enough: she was controlled entirely using just three hand cranks and a rudder. One crank propelled the ship forward and backwards, one was used to take her underwater (she was slightly buoyant due to her design), and a third screwed a rudimentary form of mine into the hull of the enemy vessel. Turtle would then have backed off and triggered the mine from a distance by use of a pull-cord attached to the hull (the sub’s own momentum being what pulled the cord). (Interestingly, this also means the Turtle had no ballast tanks: she relied entirely on downward propulsion to remain submerged.) Additionally, as mentioned by others, France was experimenting with submarines extensively at this time, for a variety of purposes: research, warfare, and even salvage operations. In my opinion, Hunley was actually a success: she completed her mission, despite an untrained crew, and they were only killed by something that science didn’t understand at the time. Sinking the Housatonic proved submarine warfare was practical: if a bunch of untrained rebels could sink a full-blown warship with something like Hunley, then what a genuine military could do was limited only by imagination.

Lovely story's , especially about the Hunley , with so many sunken ships all over the world you can never run out of material for your channel.

[@dannywilson2446]

You should check the hunley movie out

[@MGower4465]

The Hunley was *thought* to have killed another crew between the second and third. A test was conducted at pierside with Hunley submerging in place with a full crew, to see how long they could last. Not really sure why actually submerging was necessary, but...they stayed down so long the sentries on the pier reported them as dead only to see the sub rise up an hour or so later and all 8 men emerge somewhat worse for wear. The boat had actually operated exactly as planned, but the men had refused to be the first to signal for an end to the test from fear of being the coward. By the time they did surface there was too little oxygen inside for a candle to stay lit.

[@keithammleter3824]

That men could outlive the burning of a candle is not as surprising as it might seem. In server (computer) farms, which are installed in windowless secure rooms, they don't typically use normal water sprinkler fire suppression, as water on electronic devices just makes fires worse. Instead they use gas fire suppression. Gas fire suppression relies on the fact that the human body keeps its blood at saturation oxygen levels at all times, therefore breathing depth cannot be controlled from oxygen level. Instead, the body adjusts breathing based on the blood carbon dioxide level, which is normally very low, as is the level of CO2 in the atmosphere - its basically only a trace. This means that you can halve the level of oxygen in the room, and provided you double the concentration of CO2, everybody breathes just fine, though their ability to perform intense exercise would be diminished. But at half oxygen level, most flames go out. I once witnessed a test gas dump in a computer room. I did not have any discomfort, though I did automatically breath a bit deeper. A similar system is used to put out flightdeck electrical fires in aircraft. People have trouble on high mountains where the oxygen pressure is reduced, because the CO2 level is also reduced, so the body exhales CO2 more easily, and thus compensates in the wrong direction and blood oxygen level falls.

[@MGower4465]

@@keithammleter3824 Yes, except you are speaking of a sudden displacement of oxygen. This was gradual, so the oxygen levels in the men's blood would be lowered. Being in a machine room during a fire event is still a very bad idea in general. While toxic Halon is no longer in use, you can still get injured from the suppressive gas as it comes out of the vents extremely cold. You can get cold burns. Perhaps mild frostbite.

[@keithammleter3824]

@@MGower4465 You are right about the gas coming out cold, but there is not much if any risk of frostbite, as this system is used in rooms containing racks of computers/servers. These both put out lots of heat, typically 1000 watts/sq metre, normally removed by high capacity airconditioning, and comprising lots of metal, about 200 - 500 kg/metre, which acts as heat storage. Usually, some racks house the back up batteries, which have a specific heat about 80% of their volume in water. Also, air normally contains about 80% nitrogen and only 20% oxygen. CO2 is only a trace. To get the oxygen pressure halved, you only need to add inert gas to add about 10% of the total room volume. So the cold is swamped out anyway. Say the gas comes out the vents at 0 C that would lower the room from a typical 25 C to 22.5 C even if the room was empty. The reason why we stayed comfortable was not because it was a sudden dump of gas into the room. It was because human blood is normally saturated with oxygen, and the gas dump includes additional CO2 to make you breath deeper. As we were expecting it, we did notice we breathed deeper, but no discomfort. Human lung capacity is sufficient for vigorous exercise (say walking up an average hill), way greater than needed for just sitting or standing around.

[@KPW2137]

CS Hunley has an interesting story , thanks for sharing! Also, there were many bizarre, premature or NOT so great designs from the past, would be great if you made a video about them. What I mean is, for example, the Turtle used in the American Revolution. Or German Seeteufel from 1944.

[@LandyVlad_Rides]

The moment I read the title I KNEW this was the Horace L. Hunley. I read Clive Cussler's book Sea Hunters (or was it Sea Hunters II) where he describes the search an discovery of the vessel.

[@laurapeter3857]

One small correction, the Hunley was never given the CSS designation as she was never part of the Confederate Navy. She was dimply known as the H.L. Hunley.

[@gerardleary1885]

She was also known as the CSS Hunley…

[@fsodn]

Yeah, there's a lot of confusion about that point. I've seen it written down on both ways. I think the Hunley museum doesn't call it the "CSS" at the moment, but for many years I think people called it that, so there's a lot of momentum to that name, even if it's true that it wasn't called that during its actual existence.

[@robertgarrard8868]

This is not correct. The Hunley was built by a Confederate officer, and funded by the Confederate government. It was very much a Confederate ship. What is going on here is that people are trying to dissociate the Confederacy’s achievements from the Confederacy itself. The same thing goes on when people call CSS Virginia “the Merrimack” or fail to mention CSS Alabama’s achievements but never fail to mention that she was sunk by the USS Kearsarge.

[@MrJeepmarine]

[@KelciGreenwood]

Love the video! I did my master's thesis on American Civil War shipwrecks. I had a whole section dedicated to the Hunley, and it's always nice to see other people taking such an interest in it. The only thing I would note is that Horace Lawson Hunley, for whom the sub was named, was not the designer. The designer was a man named James McClintock. Hunley was primarily the financier, though he was definitely involved in the process of its creation. I just think McClintock should get the credit he's due (though since all three of the subs Hunley paid him to design ultimately sank, maybe he'd be happy to let Hunley take the credit/blame).

The first I ever heard of the _Hunley_ was from a 1999 film of the same title that I saw in a video rental store as a kid and picked out of whim, and my parents didn't find my choice objectionable since they figured a historical film would be "educational" to some extent. Well, it did get me to look up more about the Hunley from the library and the early 2000s internet, so I guess it kind of was, ultimately.

[@noother964]

I often saw Mediterranean Sky in Patras, when I was a kid -along with Mediterranean Sea, which I guess was a sister ship. It was beautifully transformed and looked stunning, at least to my eyes. Many years later I drove by the spot where she's laying. I took some photos, I didn't knew what ship this was because her colors had changed. It was sad to learn that what I admired as a child was rusting in the sea near Elefsis (or Elefsina, as it's now called).

there were also theories that the Hunley's crew simply ran out of air and passed out and never woke up. two things suggest this one being that the sub's wreck seemed to be away from the wreck of the union ship and the other being the Hunley had no damage from any shockwave or explosion. regardless i think passing out in a metal tube under the ocean never to wake up is kind of more terrifying.

At the end of the Civil War all Confederate nautical assets ( Even though Hunley was never officially CSS Hunley) became US Navy property just as the Confederate Army's assets became the property of the US Army / War Department. I haven't heard the Navy has given up ownership so if anyone knows for certain please correct me.
