And according to the book on the incident. Langsdorf shot himself wrapped in the Flag of the Imperial German Navy and NOT in the flag of the Nazi Movement! He was of the old school of German Naval Officers. Unlike Lutyens he was honourable. Treated Officer Prisoners with respect and dignity - even when Graf Spee was under 8" and 6" fire! He obeyed International Maritime law and the law itself. Lutyens did not!

Yes and No ... They DID use torpedo warheads, but only as a TRIGGER, due to the ability to set them on timers, but the main scuttling charges were the powder and shell magazines under the three main turrets (they'd only recently resupplied from the freighter Altmark, including fuel, food and ammunition). And since they opened all the bulkhead doors any explosion and fire would propagate to all OTHER magazines as well, like the ones for the 5.9 inch turrets, as well as to the fuel tanks.

Graff Spee torpedoe stores were wired into the scuttling charges to make a proper job of making sure nothing could be salvaged from the shallow water at the mouth of the river where Graff Spee was sunk.... As our ships were sunk at Pearl Harbor inside the shallow waters, and thus able to be raised and salvaged and sent back into battle against the Japanese.... By adding the warheads of their torpedoes to the power of their scuttling charges they could blow the bottom right out of the Graff Spee so she could never be salvaged....

Those of the German Commerce Raiders were old school German Navy instead of NAZI'S and treated the seamen they took prisoner within the rules of war.... The target ships were given the chance to surrender and leave their ships in lifeboats.... And even when they tried to send out their SOS and position Langdorf targeted the radio shack or weapons mounts and not to sink the crews with the ships.... More allied seamen prisoners were killed by British guns firing on Graff Spee then by German guns firing on the merchant ships....

The captain of this ship was very good at anticipating the allied responses to his actions, but he was also extremely lucky.. Throughout this whole vid, I kept thinking “man, this ship did a LOT of damage to allied shipping”, but then I’d remember that the U.S. alone produced 2700, 14,000 ton liberty ships, and over 500 victory ships.. that’s just the U.S., not including ships built by the Royal Navy, Canadian navy, Australian navy and so on .. this ship barely made a dent.. all the tonnage it either sunk or repatriated was but a drop in the bucket.. I know if you add the tonnage this ship sunk, along with all the tonnage sunk by U-boats and other surface ships, it is DEFINITELY a sizeable chunk, but like Dom says in the first fast and furious movie (the only good one imho), “it doesn’t matter if you win by an inch, or a mile.. winning is winning” .. the Germans were close, but close wasn’t good enough lol

The interesting part of the Graf Spee and the decision not to fight the way back to Germany was that one of the British hits during Plate destroyed the ship's bakery. Now in nearly all other situations this would be a 'So??' situation. In the context of being alone and half the world away with no supporting facilities suddenly turned this into a significant problem and, it is claimed, one of the more significant reasons for not attempting breakout back to Germany.

@@johnbloomfield5705That’s why I said Armored Cruiser is more fitting. But it also can be call Battlecruiser. Scharnhorst does have the same guns compared to Graf Spee. Which at the time Bismarck still under construction. You can call this ship Battlecruiser as well. Plus, Judging based on Gun caliber to determine Battlecruisers were unreliable because Germans in WW1 made their Battlecruiser having an inch less caliber size than their capital ships. This is something that Graf Spee tick all of the Battlecruiser ticks. Especially for First Gen version. Fast, Have reasonable guns to kill cruisers, have enough armor to fight multiple cruisers. If we look at 1st gen alone. Alaska Class can also be counted in this as well. She was design to fight against cruisers like Takao Class, fast and have enough armor to fight Heavy Cruiser head on.

@@tsuaririndoku Battlecruiser is the description generally applied to far larger and heavier ships than the Deutschland class. These very large ships carried similar size armament to full battleships but were often more lightly armoured. Typical examples of ships correctly called battlecruisers were Hood, Repulse and Renown all carried 15" guns. Hood was by far the largest at some 46000 tons - over 4.5 times the weight of Graf Spee. I believe the term battlecruiser was originally used to describe a fast battleship not a heavy cruiser as you suggest

Under the terms and conditions of losing the Great War Germany was allowed to build ships up to 10,000 tons and armed with up to 11inch guns. The intent was this would allow them to build small 'coast defence' type ships of the type typical to many of the small 'token' navies of the time. These ships would allow Germany the dignity of being able to defend their own coastline, but not the offensive power to go out into international waters and annoy people. Germany then took the 'letter' of the restrictions (10,000 tons, 11inch guns) and utterly ignored the spirit of the restriction and made long ranged ocean going ships clearly intended for commercial raiding. Of interest is that there were Treaties (London and Washington, I am paraphrasing the fine print and which treaty did exactly what) that set the 'rules' for what was a Light and Heavy Cruiser, what guns they could have (6inch for lights, 8inch for heavy), how big they could be (10,000 max for heavy) and how many total each nation could build. So under those treaties the Panzerschiffs were 'illegal' ships, although since I don't think Germany signed any of those treaties (or was even invited cause at the time they were made Germany was still in the post Great War bad books) the actually 'legal' status is more a discussion point rather than a binding condition. In simple terms most of it was a mix of a pissing contest and playing with legal loopholes.

If she did someone would have blasted the wreck. I'm pretty sure the fishermen of the area know where she is. They either don't care about the historical significance and it's just another obstacle to avoid, or aren't going to share the location because it's a prime fishing spot like most wrecks.”

Pronunciation of German names leaves a lot to be desired here . Can't pronounce Ibiza either - MUST TRY HARDER . The repeated mispronunciation of Wilheimshaven is not only cringeworthy ; it grates on the nerves and devalues everything else in this video , given that the most basic things have been so blatantly wrong . Even non German words are mispronounced with buoy pronounced as boo-eh instead of boy . Truly awful .

Video doesn't say Graf Spee was torpedoed. Video states she was 'destroyed by torpedoes' - apparently the scuttling charges were torpedo warheads. (This was new to me)

s Ship did not leave harbor and be sunk by torpedo. Ship carried a skeleton crew out and scuttling charges sank it. To make such a critical error in your narrative speaks volumes. The Graff Spee being scuttled is THE main event of her entire voyage. Your ignorance of this event ruins any credibility Hidden History had in my mind . Correct this glaring error and learn to research and proofread. This means you must KNOW the topics, not just read an erroneous paper.

21:59 The Sheer did much better than "decimate" the convoy,; it sunk 7 of the 35 ships. Had it decimated the convoy it would have reduced the convoy by 1/10th... thus only sinking 3.5 ships.

Graf Spee was scuttled by order of Captain Langsdorff. Hitler had demanded that he take her out on a last ride against what was thought to be an overpowering British naval force. Graf Spee was NOT sunk by torpedo. Captain Langsdorff had three options. Stay in port and have Graf Spee seized and his crew interned, with the ship eventually being surrendered to the British Navy intact. Go out and fight the British, with the attendant loss of life for his crew and destruction of his ship. Spare the crew and prevent the Graf Spee from falling into British hands by scuttling her. He chose the last option and committed suicide as payment for his decision. Jesus kid. At least read the crap that is in Wikipedia on the Graf Spee before you make your videos.
