On board the Vasa - Episode 1

Welcome on board the Vasa! Together with Fred Hocker, Director of Research, we explore all of Vasa's interior spaces. In the first episode, we take you to the Stern Castle.

Amazing presentation, information, and collection of workmanship by both ancient workers and today's workers. It really is a shame that this video series is not more suggested. I enjoyed all of this collection!

[@johnbeans2000]

Thank you! Will visit this summer!

[@tristandotts3410]

Fred Hocker makes an excellent presentation in this series. Kudos.

[@paullamb9366]

Great video. Never seen a tour after preservation.

[@GreatCityAttractions]

a fascinating sight! - amazing.

[@d.ag.b1135]

great video, sad i will never get the chance to walk around onboard myself though.

[@Boomer112]

We aren't allowed to walk around onboard anyways, unless we probably in some shape or form, work at the museum. Or possibly work FOR the museum. Don't quote me on anything, though.

As a graphic designer working on one of Fred Hocker's books I was given the opportunity of exploring the ship. An amazing experience!

[@tristandotts3410]

Fred Hocker does an amazing job on this presentation. Kudos.

"not sure how 'this' space may have been used" ... it floated for 20 minutes, they didn't yet know how, much of it, would be used either

[@Becauseimme]

Reminds me of something from “Hook” (1991) Neverland.

[@Youtube_Globetrotter]

@Randomdudeacc Hook is a movie about Peter Pan with Dustin Hoffman

I am impressed with your English. Your spelling is even perfect, sadly not true of most native English-speakers on KZbin. From Canada. 🇨🇦

sO, YOU'RE BASICLALY GOIGN TO COMPLETELY SPOIL THE SHIP

[@h.calvert3165]

Well, if the only alternative to internal bracing is to have it completely collapse. . .after all, it is hundreds of years old, & spent most of those years at the bottom of the harbour! 🌊

[@elimaysel4mwashier398]

How about hygiene onboard?

[@billgates3699]

Wow. This ship is astonishingly ingenious. Europe was pretty advanced in the 1600’s. Asia was as well. Africa……………..

[@Gonken88]

Nothing's changed 😂

[@dennislindqvist8443]

A ship cannot be ingenious if it capsizes after thirty minutes. But it's nice to look at, I've seen it. There is actually a well-preserved, well-built African ship that was built four thousand years before this one. Also with its own museum.

[@billgates3699]

What's up with his forehead?

[@Stefan-]

Maybe he hit it in the low doorways :-)

[@mjm33mjm]

A shrine to a ship that sank its first day out..? Half way through the clip I started wondering where the narrator got that knot on his forehead!!

[@KomodoDragon6969]

It’s a perfectly preserved time capsule you dolt

[@alphax4785]

Museum =/= Shrine, and the Vasa museum is just a museum built around a quirk of nature that a ship that sank in 1628 hadn't rotted away to nothing by the time technology had advanced far enough to raise and preserve her.
