Four Horrifying Shipwrecks You Probably Haven’t Heard Of

[@Jens-Viper-Nobel]

@@pikachoo1Where the h... did you get that number, or are you just assuming that all Germans at that time were working the death camps? Most were ordinary civilians trying to escape the Russian army. A lot were ordinary wehrmacht and Kriegsmarine wounded being evacuated out, along with a contingent of Luftwaffe blitzmädels as they were called. There were some SS troops on board, but mostly also wounded from frontline units, and a few party hacks who did not want to share the destiny of the people they left to the mercy of the Russians and so abandoned them and forced/cheated their way on board. And quite a lot of the civilian casualties were innocent children who knew only that something bad was happening and that they were going away from it, not even old enough to know what war was or what soldiers from their country had done to others. 9000 death camp operators??? Forgive me for saying so since I don't know you, but GET LOST! You obviously don't know shit about what happened there how ever nice and likeable you may be in other respects.

[@Jens-Viper-Nobel]

@philtkaswahl2124 The Centaur was a deliberate and inexcusable war crime. The Montevideo Maru could have been one if it wasn't for the fact that she was listed as a troop transport. Troop transports were a ligitimate target since they carried troops and weapons. So, in this case, the skipper of the US sub was performing what he thought to be a regular sinking of a regular enemy target, not knowing that she was carrying allied soldiers as POW's. There was another incident in the atlantic where a German U-boat sank a British troop transport. He too did a regular sinking of a regular enemy target, only to discover who were really on board. Mostly Italian POW's and civilian British evacuees. He did the honorable thing and summoned other U-boats to save the people from that transport and bring them to safety. He even broadcast in plain language, in English, what he was doing and why, so that he could carry on with the rescue of civilians and POW's. That thing turned into a war crime comitted by the Americans because they had patrol aircraft in the area that despite the message from the U-boat attacked the rescuers and killed both rescued and rescuers in the proces. The German rescuers even had the good grace and honor to not fire back at the aircraft because that would have been a violation of their role as rescuers at the time. They simply took the hits and carried on with the rescue of the victims. You will be hard pressed to find examples of wartime incidents with a more honorable behavior than this despite being on a not so honorable side in the war. There is a movie made about this incident which finally pays a long overdue tribute to the bravory and honor of the U-boat crews who took part in this rescue , although I don't remember the title of it.

[@connorhernandez6570]

It’s tragic what happened to the Montevideo Maru. I’ve heard plenty of stories about American submarines struggling throughout the pacific, mainly due to incredibly faulty torpedoes. Could you imagine the feeling of glee upon learning that your torpedoes actually managed to sink something instead of missing or running a circle and hitting you, only to be told that you’ve sunk a prisoner transport vessel with hundreds of your comrades on board?

[@AaronShenghao]

American and allied submarines sank countless Japanese Hell ships and German Prison ships, granted it's hard to tell the ship were transporting retreating troops or PoW/refugees... There were also cases of both sides sunk protected Hospital ships and Red Cross Relief ship... War is brutal.

[@brucelee3388]

Another one largely forgotten - HMS Birkenhead. A British troop ship carrying soldiers families as well as 500 troops from England to South Africa, ran aground February 1852. The wreck is considered the origin of the 'Women and children first' policy in ship wrecks, troops stood on deck as the ship went down - the origin of another expression 'Birkenhead drill' - standing fast in the face of approaching doom. The ship wreck is commemorated in several places such as the suburb of 'Birkenhead Point' in Sydney, Australia.

[@wayneantoniazzi2706]

There was a poem written called "The Birkenhead Drill" but I forget the author. Tennyson? Kipling? I'll have to look that one up.

What the Japanese did to the AHS Centaur is unforgivable and outright dishonorable of the most terrible sort, but it also makes them as cowards to target a defenseless hospital ship.

[@amxelcbis4464]

apparently they believed that medics and hospital ships were valuable targets, as less medics/hospital ships = less enemy soldiers. they even rewarded soldiers for specifically shooting medics, so it's unsurprising that medics in the pacific took off their medical markings in combat

[@PaulRudd1941]

2 bombs weren't enough. They should have sunk the entire Japanese navy with nukes too just to prove a point.

[@hairy_putin]

Japanese philosophy towards war and the treatment of your enemies at the time had barely changed since before the Meiji restoration. The only real difference was how it was weaponised for modern times, politics, and warfare. People tend to claim that the IJN was the only truly honourable branch of the Japanese armed forces, but there are countless horror stories of brutality and inhumane actions, particularly in regard to submarine warfare in the Dutch East Indies. Those that went down to a torpedo arguably were lucky.

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

Mike, I don't know if you'll even notice this, but curiousity means I'll ask anyway. I only came across your channel maybe two months ago, and being impressed, I've watched quite a few of your uploads. So, if you don't mind me asking, how did you develop an interest in maritime history? Did you study this, or a related subject at university? Or are you, with respect, an amateur historian, albeit an extremely knowledgeable one? I only ask because many online historians are older, and might have had a previous career that relates to their chosen subject matter. You are clearly extremely knowledgeable*, and your videos seem to be impeccably researched, in addition to being interesting and entertaining. The result is that even though maritime history isn't something that I've had more than a passing interest in, I've certainly enjoyed learning about the subject in recent weeks. *Even though I know next to nothing about the subject, it'd be apparent if you weren't as knowledgeable as you appear - KZbin commenters take no prisoners. There are a number of supposedly 'factual' or 'educational' channels on KZbin that regularly upload videos littered with mistakes, and these are quickly seized upon by the ever watchful viewers. I can't say that I've seen anyone in your comments taking issue with your content, which speaks volumes about the quality of your presentations.

[@OceanlinerDesigns]

Thanks so much for the thoughtful comment! I have a background in Industrial Design which itself was born of a deep interest in machines and how they, and good design, work. The maritime interest came from both of my parents for different reasons; mum who exposed me to ‘A Night to Remember’ quite young and dad who came out to Australia on an ocean liner in 1959 and who has himself had a lifelong love of ships! :) I wouldn’t describe myself as an historian until I achieved the relevant qualifications but I am a enthusiastic enthusiast. Mistakes do slip through the cracks unfortunately but I try my best to stay on top of them and correct them in comments or descriptions. Thanks so much for watching!

[@lilymcmahon6242]

Yeah, you are back for another video. I truly love all the information and very interesting way you present those facts. I keep checking most days to see what is new! Were you ever a professor, because your presentation is wonderful? I find it almost unbelievable that anyone ever got onto a ship at all.

[@Choice_au]

I don't really have the words to articulate it, but I've been on an Old Boat kick recently and probably the most profound thing about these stories is the realisation of just how brutal life was even 100 years ago. In the case of these migrants, they live in a dark torment for several months. Then, unprompted, one of the countless crashes capsizes the ship or grounds it on a reef or whatever and now it's time to drown in total darkness. It's not just the lack of agency or closure, but the mundanity of it. I don't know if the number legit, but I saw a self-published direct-to-DVD documentary that claimed that Australia's coastline has around 9000 shipwrecks. That speaks to the idea that most shipwrecks are small and likely to be unrecorded. Obviously as a white bloke it's easy to contextualise this as 'history' - as a problem that was solved by better ships and radio and meteorology etc. But of course there are still asylum seekers fleeing conflict or persecution in boats far less impressive than any ship shown here. I have never been a 'stop the boats' supporter, but maritime history really does illustrate just how dangerous the journey actually is and it becomes easy to imagine just how many boats would just simply vanish. It really drives home how cruel of a policy it is to simply force the ships to turn around.

[@stormisuedonym4599]

To the contrary, it drives home how cruel of a policy it is to welcome anyone who makes it. That tempts people to make a journey they're ill-fitted to make. Turning them away is 'cruel' to the people on the tub getting turned around, but it's a kindness to the other people who get discouraged and don't die. Also, and it's really important to note this, you're not paying attention to what those people do once they arrive in Europe, America, or Australia.

[@MatthewAnderson707]

Your comment about Principe de Asturias reminded me of the SS San Juan. An American coastal liner which operated between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The ship was 47 years old and made of poorly maintained wrought iron. She collided with an oil tanker owned by the Standard Oil Company of California, called the SS SCT Dodd. San Juan sank in less than 3 minutes killing 77 people with only 42 survivors. San Juan was built in 1882 and was almost exactly like she was the day the ship was constructed, when she sank on August 29, 1929.

My grandad was part of the force that took PNG from Japan, and I have his letters home to my family, updating them on his search for his uncle. He went back to the plantation, but it was destroyed. He was still stationed at Rabaul when he was told of his uncle's fate.

Only they can understand...so.I have immense respect for our veterans. They are survivors. They deserve way more than what our government does for them.
