In many cases, being done in black & white actually enhanced the atmosphere of the show, especially with "The Twilight Zone," which seemed to greatly benefit from the noir-esque quality inherent to b&w film.

It refers to the effects of a collision, which suddenly stops the forward momentum of the ship and "shivers" (shakes) her timbers (rib structure). If a person sees something horrible or recalls/anticipates a dread incident, his body shakes in similar fashion. The phrase can be generalized to refer to the speaker's recalling, or anticipating, something momentous. Used as a means of emphasis in speech. "Shiver me timbers, but that's the foulest weather I ever seen."

I read of a similar incident, in WW2. A merchant ship was sunk, and several survivors, including the badly injured navigator escaped in a lifeboat. On the bridge of a ship some hours away, a man suddenly appeared reciting a set of numbers. Recognizing it it as a lat/long position, the ship changed course. Eventually the ship came across the lifeboat, and rescued the survivors. The navigator, who had been delirious and mumbling for hours, died shortly before rescue. The crew of the rescuing ship were amazed to recognize the navigator as the man who suddenly appeared on their bridge, giving the position of his shipmates.

The difference between the story your relating and the this one is the navigator in your story must have given the position of the ship in minutes and seconds which would have been the only certain way of locating the sunken ship. In this story however steering a course of west by north west would have been just to inexact to have found these survivors. I'm no expert were navigation is concerned but i would say that by steering a course that vague the sunken ship could have gone down anywhere within thousand mile if not a lot more of this ships heading not that a ship of this period would have been on course this inexact in the first place by this time all ships were using minutes and seconds to show their exact position

@gordonshumway5933 Жыл бұрын
Rod Serling was a legend, a veteran of ww2 which is fairly obvious from many of the twilight zone episodes. He was a paratrooper who wanted to fight against Hitler but was sent to the pacific. He saw combat in the battle of Leyte receiving two wounds. And was part of the unit that took Manila, which had minimal resistance until reaching the city where block by block fighting occurred, his regiment had a 50% casualty rate, and he was eventually wounded by shrapnel that killed three of his comrades. He was also part of the occupation force in Japan. He received a Purple Heart, a bronze star, and the Philippine liberation medal. While in the pacific, a friend of his was preforming a comedic monologue for the platoon, as this was happening a plane dropped a food crate which decapitated him, his name was Melvin Levy. These experiences influenced Serling, his work, his politics, and as a person, being pretty progressive especially for the time on race, war, censorship, and he clashed with studios over them. Serling was an incredible person, very interesting, I would suggest anyone look into and learn about him. I don’t blame anyone for liking One Step Beyond more than the Twilight Zone, I prefer the Twilight Zone myself but both were phenomenal, and there were other great shows that were similar and just as good, like The Outer Limits.. Tales Of Tomorrow was another but was earlier by a few years if I’m not mistaken.

This story made me afraid to ever get in a boat again. Not even a canoe in a lake. No sea monster, weird event is going to get me! Some people are afraid to fly and I can understand that, although really plane crashes are VERY RARE, although they do sometimes happen. But think what it was like especially back in the 1500's , 1600 and 1700s. on a old creaky ship and even though they had sometimes an idea where they were going.. just think all that open sea or ocean.. depending on the wind to move you. Amazing really. Especially the 15 and 1600s when everything was so unknown. I saw a book written from the 1600s. it had illustrations from that time that showed ships far in the north during very icy waters. It showed one drawing of a ship that had wrecked into an iceberg , with another ship trying to rescue them. Ice everywhere. So brave to be that far north in the ice. Scary times. Even today there are scary things happen on the sea's. I think I will just watch and read about them :) This was an AMAZING story, and I believe it is true just as it was written.

When I was a kid in the 50's my sisters and I were so mesmerized by these series. Well done!

The writing and acting in this series is always *superb* and modern television cannot even come close to the quality. I threw away my TV in 2007 and there has never been a day since then when I missed having it. Thank you John Newland and Collier Young.

Sometimes some unexplained and creepy things happen at sea.

Yes they most certainly do but I don't believe all Seagulls are reincarnated drowned sailors !

The stowaway changed the course of the ship, instead of letting 3 men take a dip. The captain thought it was his crew member's that made the change, but it was the stowaway that saved the day.

I've been hearing stories like this, from actual witnesses, all my life. And I'm pretty close to 70 years old! "There are more wonders........."

An unusually tense script; fine, taut direction and some very creditable acting.

Top notch acting here. I thought I was watching some old sea movie.

I've read many true stories of sea misteries and I believed their truth.

I loved this show and Twighlight Zone. Rod Serling had written movies in Hollywood, tired of it and said he got a lot of the stories from true life.

Always loved nautical tales. This is a great tale and it goes into my love of nautical fiction which here the old axiom: Truth is Stranger Than Fiction. This series is so far above today's TV offerings. Side note: the quality of these broadcasts is amazing. Better than the collection I have on DVD. Thank you for giving this to us to enjoy.
