For all those worried about ai notice how it pronounced isle royal it's an idiot

make some more videos please

Is it me or is this kid pronouncing it "..fix gerald.."?

Last time I checked she’s just sitting in Fraser shipyard.

For sure, 100% GUARANTEED that those 29 men died the most horrible, most frightening deaths imaginable!! I am not only referring to the fact that they ALL drowned inside of their own ship, but rather, I'm talking about their drowning by hypothermia in ice cold waters at the bottom of lake Superior while suffering from impact trauma when their ship struck the lake floor!! If any of the men were in any Water tight areas where no water could get in, then they too Would have died from hypothermia as well, but, while they were still alive, they must have been panicking in the dark because the ship's lights went out as they would have been in the dark screaming their minds out in great terror knowing that they're gonna die without anybody being able to find them, and with not a chance of anyone ever rescuing them! The lucky ones died quickly, and the less fortunate ones died a little bit later on, but, they ALL died a horrible horrible death on their torpedo-like drop to the bottom of the 535-foot distance to the Lake Superior's bottom!! 💔💔💔💔😥😥😥😥😥😥😥💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔😥😥😥😥😥😥😥

Any updates?

My husband lost relatives in this tragedy 😢 I pray this crew rests in peace

The Canadian specific?

Rusty old tub with keel separated, made of scrap steel. Twisted like a pretzel, bow stuck in the mud, throttle full torque twisted the middle third Into confetti

I've been on the ship

Wow, TIL something. Great job!

Y'know, After seeing the body discovered on the Fitz I am terrified of all wreck photos even from ships where bodies aren't there like the Titanic those at then end we're just... I can't I can't imagine what the divers thought

Hey Kid… u still around? Was this a school project or a real interest on this Magnificat boat. There’s still a lot of questions to be answered. Hope ur project worked out well.

I love this bulk carrier 💙💙💙

It was especially good to hear that the Crew escaped without incident! Far too many Great Lake vessels have killed their Crews! The most important thing is Crew safety, everything else is a matter for loss adjusters, lawyers and Courts to determine.

54806 dood ....To bad shes gone .

People are concerned, not because they don’t inspect or have rules & regs in place, but because ships often get to defer maintenance & in the past problems were glossed over, overlooked etc. Leading to the loss of lives. We have to be able to trust those in authority to do the right thing. Right. People on land at the top doin a cost/benefit analysis weighing risk to life against profits. And the rules are truly written in blood.

GET RID OF it...before it becomes a liability..like fitzgerald

The ship at 0:53 is the Stewart J. Cort, one of the thousand footers on the lakes.

I drove by the ship docked last week, the bones are showing in a major way on the ships sides.

is Arthur M Anderson another sister ship with Edmund Fitzgerld??

Thank you for this, everybody always quotes the Anderson as being the sister ship but it's not. My dad worked on the Colby??? summer of 57 and used to think it was a sister to the Fitz but all freighters from that era look alike, but not neccesarily sisters.

Many great lakes disasters were unscheduled "final" runs. Overloaded, bad weather runs demanded by the corporate masters. Money, money, money.

It was the “Fitzgerald” not the “Fixgerald”

!,

That was cool there fleetmate John J Boland well we don’t want it scrapped I’m gonna crying 😢

I was on the MV Algoway that night , I had just turned 16 yrs old 12 days before. I was porter on that ship on November 10 1975. I could not go up forward because the ship was bending and waves crashing on the deck.

Pure, 100%, 6th-grade garbage.

Blows me away how old some of the ships are on the Lakes

The one photo is the Cort

They all look (mostly) the same because they are built for function at reasonable cost using the available technology ot their time. Just as the 60 and 70 year old ships were built with the same objectives... and they all looked the same as other ships of the same vintage. The opinion that they were so much more pleasing to the eye is highty subjective. Ships have always been built to maximize cost effectiveness, and odds are they always will be.

I don’t understand this video. I heard on the news the inspection found the ship too damaged to repair and was to be scrapped. Also the crew had been laid off already. Why are we still talking about this?

iron coffin!!

It's Mih-shippa-COAT-en and Al-GOH-ma

does anyone know were the love of god goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours

It’s bad luck to change the name of a boat.

Every time I see a Great Lakes ore hauler, all I hear is: 🎵 "The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee, Superior they said, never gives up her dead When the gales of November come early..." 🎶

Nice one! Do you know where the picture at 2:48 was taken? There is a building similar to the one in the picture in Cleveland,OH.

I have dove the DR Hanna twice. 140 to the mud and the engine room access door is the only to get inside of her. Lot of the rooms are a mess but the boilers and engine are still in place, but it is a difficult penetration dive.

She failed her inspection and going for scrap!

Also, ashland has a total of 5 ore docks. C&NW Docks 1-3, Wisconsin Central and Soo line

Nice to see you used some of my photos but no credits

Very old Lakers in action now...

The Fitzgerald hit six fathoms shoal, reported leaks and pumps on and sank because it bottomed out. Other ships like the Daniel J Morrell, Edward Townsend and the Carl D Bradley were made from steel before 1948 which was known as “brittle steel“. Finally we are talking freshwater ships which have a much much longer lifetime than saltwater ships. If she is repairable she should have many more years of good service

LLT's somehow mad that the coast guard is refusing to allow another Fitz to happen. To quote a gaming journalist that I admire greatly: "Let's all laugh at an industry that never learns anything teeheehee"

Same old story. Company doesn’t care about safety. They never have and never will. This is why we have inspections and regulations. The workers don’t have a chance without these.

$$$$$ don't care for ewe

If the USCG had had the nerve to do this to the Fitz there wouldn’t have been 29 casualties but they allowed a derelict ship to sail in the worst month on the lakes.
