Monster Shipwreck Mystery of the Mars

[@darwinbruce59]

Being a seaman and history buff this was so good. Thanks for your hard work.

[@robertagapito834]

very cool

[@pioneerscuba6976]

Thanks for posting this! Love it.

[@502days]

Awesome loved it we'll done thanks 👍

[@JOYOUSONEX]

I love being schooled about a subject I've never heard of.............and this such a subject. I think that Mars the Magnificent was sunk not just by cannon shot etc, but by the vagueries of war. She was left alone as the winds had scattered the Swedish fleet. Was she sufficiently armed to fight a hand to hand fight, a situation she was designed to specifically avoid ? The list goes on. And we must remember that history is written by the victors, not the vanquished. Excellent documentary. Thank you ever so much for posting.

[@jessstone7486]

Absolutely fascinating! Thank you.

[@sheenaalexis8710]

This was incredibly entertaining and interesting! And most importantly educational! Thank you.

[@teknotikpointbiz]

thank you

[@mirika888]

I never heard of this ship and I am from sweden, the only ship I can remember they talked about in school was Wasa, Thank you.

[@johnemerson1363]

Wasa was salvaged from shallow water. Mars is 250 plus feet on the bottom. Wasa is intact. Mars blew up. Until now, she was also just a legend.

[@petterslattas7269]

@@johnemerson1363 even though the mars exploded parts of it is in relatively good shape because of the Baltic sea. Remarkable since it sank 458 years ago

[@olderthanyoucali8512]

Did anyone notice that they depict the Swedish King as a young clean shaven man, yet his image on his coin is of a mature man with a long pointed beard?

[@stefansoder6903]

Wow. What a gem! So rare to see such good TV-documentaries these days. KZbinrs usually do it much better nowadays than TV. This is an excellent exception. Even our King is in it! :-)

[@MELANIE2571]

OMG. As an obsessive history buff this was like history porn for me ! Wrecked ships, historical reconstructions, battle ships fighting. But the best bit for me are those exquisite maps. Even better than Game of Thrones. You should sell those maps they are a thing of beauty

[@MELANIE2571]

Just got to finding the coins ,then duplicating the cannons. It's just fantastic.

[@patriot6251]

I'm watching this with interest as my grt grt grt grt grt grandad served on the HM Mars

[@Hallands.]

Mars Makalös, traditionally referred to as the Jutehatar ("Dane Hater"), was a Swedish warship that was built between 1563 and 1564 somehow slipped out go our history books...

[@LukesYuGiOhChannel]

I was hooked the moment they said Death Star.

[@lelandthompson2267]

May, the force be with U!

[@baobo67]

Interesting documentary turned into a hyped drama.Unfortunate.

[@MilledSteel]

Thanks for sharing, that was great

[@stevesloan7132]

A marvelous documentary.

[@sparkysparklepants]

Excellent

[@richardderosset6960]

I hope the wreck can be raised and perserved like the Vasa and Mary Rose ! Her historic significance is so incredible and unique that the funding for this venture would be more than justified !

[@craighagstrom1692]

No raising this one, it's all gone to flinders.

[@petterslattas7269]

Yeah I hope so too but it could get damaged and besides it might be a mass grave of up to 1000 people. Would love to see it though

[@wjnahuy]

Truly amazing find

[@garymills562]

A shot, would have to be lucky enough to penatrate the magazine which happened, sometimes. Or blew an opening in an already flooded ships lower decks. Just a history buff, good stuff.

[@davidvanniekerk356]

Dankie/ merci. It is very interesting. Why did the Africans never had ships? Thx, Danke Sehr Teknotik.

[@jbrobertson6052]

I could watch programs like this all day long thanks very much for the video. I have a question for any divers that are watching this:: Can you not use rebreathers at this depth????

[@huns12345]

One of the best ghost ship battles tales ever told,I wonder why they never told us about the history of our world in History class,that's why history was boring I suppose

[@poollogicdurbanville9360]

It's amazing that somehow there is always new technology and old hidden archives in this immensely dramatic documentaries. It's bullshit. Hats of to the divers ect. Thumbs down to the producers.

[@stephenland9361]

A couple of points; 1) The warship Mars, seems to be among a litany of warships, "The Biggest and the Best", that ended up getting unceremoniously sunk. 2) Funny thing about those old cannons. They need gunpowder to work. That stuff has a habit of going off when you least want it to. Of course that also applies to modern powder and 20th century warships (HMS Barham, HMS Indefatigable, HMS Defence, SMS Pommern, HMS Hood, IJN Unryu, IJN Yamato and many, many more).

[@garywheeler7039]

Accidental gunpowder explosion probably happened to a bunch of newbie Cuba cigar smoking American sailors visiting Havana habor on the Maine.

[@stephenland9361]

@@garywheeler7039 In 1898 the US Navy investigation into the sinking of the Maine laid the blame on a mine. It was however, very likely not a mine but that disinformation greatly added to the public popularity of the Spanish-American War. Most likely, the gunpowder magazine was ignited after spontaneous combustion of an adjacent coal bunker. But, perhaps a careless cigar smoker started the coal bunker fire!!

[@SWEmanque]

The biggest with the most cannons = the most amount of gunpowder that can blow up

[@joshuamoore24_7]

$200,000 back then in the 1600's or now days?

[@hnorrstrom]

Great show and interesting. I already knew a lot about the subject but I love the visuals. Also I like this kind of american format to make everything exciting. To bad the narrator with good voice fucked up all names in swedish, german and danish. I had a hard time to even knew which island he said Öland or Åland. I really wanted the number of guns and weight of the ship. I have seen so many numbers during the years.

[@vivianbond7449]

Love this to

[@leifvejby8023]

Enough of lubecks - the name is Lübeck, not Lubeck!

[@wjnahuy]

Holy stuff clearly almost my mothers maiden name I must be royalty.

[@roystonstevens4731]

very interesting story but the documentary only started to become factual in the last 4 minutes

[@stevendeitrich6933]

So they say they leave everything as it is because it is a grave . I keep seeing this about shipwrecks yet unearthing ancient graves on land is somehow different ? It's dumb to think those souls killed back then are just hanging out there , wanting to keep the cannons , coins , etc .

[@joshuamoore24_7]

It sounds like they need a better crane on there ship to hall the canons and heavy boxes of gold and silver coins up. Might I suggest a 10,000 pound crane and air bags that can be filled with air under water and 10,000 pound tow straps or cables. Plus under water metal detector's to find the coins and metal objects to load into a basket to hoist to the surface.

[@vivianbond7449]

Look for a bell 🛎 mate mite say the boat

[@nonamenoname9322]

Not gonna lie. I came here to see some skeletons. Kinda disappointed.

[@sapumalmaduhara]

same here sad :( 41:00

[@h.p.oliver8666]

Funny how there is always a lost archive hidden away in a library somewhere. Write those words down. When you see or hear them, put your boots on lest your step in something unpleasant.

[@jordiegundersen1465]

Could do without the pathetic dramatics.!! Sick🤮

[@veenoable]

Wrong.... She was sunken by the infamous ship that was even more fierce and can kill your every cells in you... It was The Black Pearl

[@battleaxcent4244]

20:50. Obiously these "scientist's" need some lessons on variables in an experiment. Drywood breaks, wet wood bends. Your drywood ship experiment doesnt symulate a Cannonball hitting water and water logged wood or the trasfered energy into the rest of the ship and i see no twine tared seams and im not even a ship expert. You are like the steven seaguluttony of science. Someone should tell that clown he looks more like a 100 gallon drum than a santa candle. Ironic his name is seagull, they are the trash pandas of the sky. Steven seagull is more the trash panda of all you can eat buffet. Would you like some food to go with your msg steven! Looks like he had a deadly alergic reaction to shellfish and his whole body swelled up like a dumpster. Forget shooting balls at non scientific ships, lets do steven seegluttony and watch that lard saturated ship go down. Shoot below the waterline and that ship too will sink. Actually forget the cannonball, shoot seagutty at the ship, put a nice oily waterpoop finish on it. Can call it the the poop deck, the seagull poop deck. Swab the poop deck and get that thing to a lab for testing. I wonder what the watchers think when they read some the random things i write.
