The Cost of Concordia by Internet Historian - Chicagoan Reacts

[@renegade637]

The irony is this cruise ship company connects to the Titanic: Costa made the Concordia and was purchased by Carnival, which purchased Cunard, which purchased the White Star Line, the company that made the Titanic.

These cruiseship companies hire unexperienced people because they are cheap

[@Fordo007]

"lets spend hundreds of millions of dollars into creating this giant ship... and then spend as little as possible for the people responsible with keeping it safe and operational" I'm sure there is a perfectly rational business explanation for why overall it's better to hire complete idiots to control half a billion dollars worth of investment... but I'm not seeing it.

[@GrimgoreIronhide]

@@Fordo007 That's actually very easy to explain, the people picking staff and the people commissioning the ship are completely different and report to different bosses. Neither see the big picture, they simply do their compartmentalized job as best they can. So the people commissioning the ship are expected to run up every expense, so they do, and they get congratulated for it because that's their job. The staff pickers are not thinking about the bigger picture at all, it's there job to find staff, and if they can get them at a bargain price all the better. The right hand does not know what the left is doing.

​@@leritykay8911 but thats kinda the point. This isn't as hopeless a situation as the Titanic, not even close. If the captain hadn't been an incompetent coward with a mostly incompetent crew, no one would have died. So the fact that *anyone* died, is ridiculous

[@DavidRomigJr]

Some info on the captain: he already had the necessary qualifications before transitioning from security to captain, the 2 prior accidents were minor ones, he did the sail by as a favor, eyeballing with landmarks in normal (though maybe it shouldn’t be), and his emergency instructions to swing the ship most likely would have cleared the rocks. Not as bad as it sounded so far other than setting the speed too fast for safety protocols, but once the ship struck the rock, the captain was as exactly as incompetent at handling the crash as he sounded. The complacent officers and the newbie navigator had a lot to do with the actual crash and they got off light compared to the captain. They all should have served time, especially the navigator.

[@RelativelyBest]

It's really unfortunate that all of this was pretty much caused by communication errors because the helmsman didn't know the language well and the third officer didn't relay the bearings like she was supposed to. Honestly, even after the actual crash, if Schettino hadn't been so spineless and actually did his job properly he wouldn't have been remembered as such a huge shithead.

[@robertlombardo8437]

[@Zash0000]

My sister works in the yachting industry. From what I understand, most of the 'good' captains are working on private yachts. The cruise lines don't pay as much as much as the private yachts. And, pretty much, you get what you pay for.

[@Hdx64]

I tell you one thing... Schettino may have been a coward and an PoS, but... Holy shit the maneuver he was trying to pull was actually genius. If he had managed to tail drift the Costa Concordia, he would been remembered as the best captain that has ever sailed. Yeah it didn't happened, but still Pretty impressed about how accurate the moves were and that what if scenario

[@matehiqu9905]

there are a lot of details that if they where a bit different the accident or at least deaths could be avoided, but it was a perfect chain of mistakes

[@sandpiperr]

No he wouldn't. Even if he'd managed to steer around the rocks, the only reason the rocks were a problem is that he put them in that situation in the first place. If he'd hadn't been lazy about checking their course, if he'd instilled better discipline and communication in his crew, if he hadn't been so cavalier wanting to go closer than he was told was safe, they would not have been close enough to the rocks to hit. You don't get to claim someone is a hero and a genuis if they save the day in a bad situation that they themself caused! It's like if a surgeon were waving around a loaded gun, accidentally shot you, and then saved you from bleeding to death. That's called minimum competancy, not "the best ever"

[@ChromiumDome411]

Schettino the Italian Tokyo Drifter. Man would that be funny.

[@haku8135]

@@sandpiperr He didn't intend to get closer than was considered safe. He intended to get AS close as was safe. .3 to .4 miles, and he wanted .3 miles. However eyeballing it and communication errors caused them to end up much closer than he wanted to be. That was the first mistake that you can KINDA take off the Captain's hands, like it's still his responsibility for sure, but it's whoever hired a guy that can barely speak english or italian as the fucking helmsman, and not even an experienced helmsman who's REALLY at fault for that. The first mistake (of MANY) that's REALLY and entirely the Captain's fault though is going as fast as they were. That is NOT ok to do if you're anywhere near a shoreline. If you're out to sea, go as fast as you're gonna go, unless something out of your control happens it's probably not going to matter too much. As far as I'm aware there are no speed signs in the ocean. Near the shoreline though, come on, there's more shit near the land, that's just common sense. Keep yourself maneuverable.

The one good thing I can see happening on a cruise ship is meeting a lot of new people you can socialize with. Being in the same place for 1-2 weeks makes that easier. Aside from that there's literally nothing a cruise ship can offer that I wouldn't rather experience on land in different parts of the world. I'm not hating on sailing. A large part of my family were fishermen and I've sailed on the Atlantic between Netherlands, Denmark, England, Scotland and the Faroe Islands in a sailboat, but the things a cruiseship offer are more interesting on land and then things a sailboat offers is more interesting at sea.

[@mrclean29]

@@nodezsh language enthusiast here: Italian has two words for “penis”: “Minchia”, which comes from ancient roman Latin “mencla”, mostly used in Southern Italy and Milan; And “cazzo”, which comes from Latin word “cattia” which means “ladle”, the cooking spoon. It is unknown but it became synonymous with “dick” in the Early middle Ages after the fall of Rome. It’s like today a lot of young people use the English word “stick” to mean “penis”, and 2000 years into the future “stick” becomes a swear word and loses its original meaning, which is replaced by a new word. Or how the English word “cock” which just means a male non-castrated chicken now is also another word for “penis”, and in the future it might lose its original meaning.

I've only been on one cruise. Carnival cruise ship Celebration. Week long cruise that stopped in Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel. Fun trip, nice stops. Ship's cabins were small for our family of 4. But restaurants were great as you could get as much as you want as it's all covered by your ticket. They had a kids program for me and my sister that had fun activities. Had a nice arcade. Pools were crowded, had best pool time in the empty kids pool at the very back of the ship. Every night room service would clean the rooms and give us new towels that were folded into shapes of different animals. So that was a nice touch. Crew were all very courteous and professional from what I saw. Never had any worries or emergencies. Parents went on an Alaskan cruise a few years ago and reported similarly. All in all I'd love to do one again. I mean if the choice was airplane or cruise ship and I had to judge on safety... it'd be cruise ship. Lot more plane crashes than cruise ship disasters.

Cruise Ship is made with the porpose for leisure. Basically they work like a resort where you can either spend some time there (like in cruises that have no stops) or you use it as a moving hotel so you can visit multiple cities without worrying about moving your stuff because the hotel moves with you (like on cruises that have multiple stops on its itinerary). Ferry is made with the porpose of transporting people, cargo and vehicles between different places and usually dont have as much luxury and accomodations like a cruise ship, tho for long distance ferries they start having some of both (given that the trip is longer). i could go in for more detail but i think this simple way of explaining each one is good enough to understand.

Anyway, what makes this all the more sad is that it was all pretty much caused by bad communication and if Schettino had just done his job properly after the crash - like not trying to lie about it or abandoning ship while there were still passengers onboard - he wouldn't have been crucified for the incident nor remembered as such a massive shithead.

[@PresidentScrooge]

Cruise ships are essentially giant petri dishes on water.

I love this reaction because it’s the same feeling as I felt: “fuck the ship, fuck the damages, fuck the money… 33 people died…” it’s unforgivable…a life has no price tag… you have 33 unfixable, intangible, priceless things… no money can buy… so fking stupid 😠

largest cruise ship disaster since the Titanic. Well yes and no technically not a cruise ship but a cruiseferry MS Estonia sank on her voyage from Tallinn, Estonia to Stockholm, Sweden when it sank and 852 people died.

I still can't figure out why this video has so much Halo music, but I'm all for it.

[@iplaygames8090]

i love that he didnt pause the video when shit was going down.

[@Preposter]

I don't think he could've. In the newer videos, he has a keyboard and he can stop it.

[@FizzleIsGaming]

maybe having a language barrier between crew is kinda a bad idea. Just an idea.

[@ABronzeSoul]

ok i know may be dumb but it didn't seem that far from shore i think with a life vest you could easily swim to dry land i have been that far out in the ocean before.
