For those of you wondering, the Chrysler Norseman was found in 1994 by a diver. He noted that the car was nothing more than a pile of rust, and that only the wheels were still recognizable. Now I imagine the car had completely rusted away. The ship itself is not long for this world. In recent years, the funnel abs masts have collapsed, and most of the superstructure is gone as well. The hull is also slowly falling in on itself.
@@viben-moto-63 it's just wheels now, I know it's hard to believe such a beauty of a car had to sink with beauty of Italy. That was a modern like car for 1950's . Andrea Doria's upper decks collapsed expect the front wall of the captain deck . That somehow still remains intact but will probably collapse too alongside other decks on the ocean floor. What I do know about the car that it was described as nothing recognisable after they found it. But what to expect cars are made for driving on the shore and ships are made for water, it's obvious one will deoritate faster than another because of the material and structure they're made from. I'm sorry if I ruined your day and hope to see the car again
@@thebluescar5045 actually diver David Bright had seen the car. He said that only the wheels were recognisable among the junk of rusted metal. Bright was looking for the body of a lost diver when he saw the remains of the car. Unfortunately, he died during another dive on the Doria
Years ago a diver did managed to get into hold where the Chrysler Norsman was and there were other cars there as well. He wrote that it was a dangerous dive as the ship had deteriorate to the point where it had become unstable and parts of the ship's interior had collapsed making it difficult to get to where the cars were. On entering the hold, he found everything was so corroded to the stage where it was hard to make out what the cars even were. He finally found the once beautiful Chrysler Norsman an unrecognizable pile of rust. The wooden crate the car was put in had long once rotted away. And the only things left of the car were the white wall tyres, the hemi engine block and the class. I not sure wheather he took pictures or not.
No. He by chance saw the car while looking for a body of a lost diver. Unfortunately, he himself died on another dive on the Doria. His name is David Bright
If anyone thinks there would be anything discernable of the Norsemen or any other car for that matter, needs to learn what salt water does to things and not just metal. The Norseman's body was actually made of hand formed Aluminum, not steel. The frame was steel and the engine cast iron. The transmission, being aluminum, would have long disintegrated, too. If anything was left now, it would be the glass and possibly the tires. But having been under water for the last 70+ years and the fact that the ship has collapsed onto itself, would make finding it next to, if not totally impossible. It's gone. If anyone makes claims to have photos of the actual car any more recent than the 1994 discovery, is lying.
It fascinates me how nature can take something like a beaten old shipwreck and turn it into a living thing. Nature accepts everything as part of itself and works its wonders. This planet is amazing and people ought to be appreciating and respecting it a lot more.
It's amazing people can actually go down like this..I would freak out with all the dark around and not knowing what was what...so thanks for showing us what most will never be able to go down and see..fascinating
Great film! I remember listening to the last few minutes of the sinking, live, on radio, as a boy in New York. I've followed the wreck's decay in detail since that day, and occasionally give presentations with my friend who was on the scene as a young "C.G.'s man. When I think of the main lounge and dining room swelling with violent incursions of seawater as the ocean burst in, I am galvanized. I'd love to have a piece of that aqua and purple terra cota you showed. Well done!
I was 6 or 7 when she sank and I remember the T.V. and later the newsreel coverage of the long sinking. I forget how many hours it took for the Doria to make her final plunge. Thank God most of the passengers were able to be rescued.
It took 12 hours to sink, the beauty you went on is now a violent wreck, by that I mean the entire upper decks and superstructure collapsed expect the Captain's deck front cabin wall. The car called Chrysler Norseman Sunk with the ship and deoritated fast. This has been a long time since 1956 and the wreck is in a terrible condition , with it's decks laying near the wreck on the ocean floor, and the wreck is on its side, the condition similar to lusitania , which is also laying on her side , will collapsed decks but she has a violently flattened hull on the side she is laying on
@@turboshelby8322 the car was indeed on the ship, and I have proof. From the data and information I gained from my source. The source I gained it from is from a documentary video , theory and comments on yt. I researched it and the car did sink .

@@turboshelby8322 Oh please, do tell. No one has ever heard of this "legend" (translation: Conspiracy theory) until now. That's rich...not to mention a stupid comment. It was DEFINITELY on the ship.. it's well documented.

The only "legend" that car was never on the ship...is in your own mind.
The wreck of the beautiful Andrea Doria was fairly intact until a few years ago. The funnel and mast collapsed many years ago but the entire superstructure has now collapsed into a pile of rubble on the sea floor. Last reports were the bow has separated from the hull and the entire hull is slowly caving in. The wreck could be a large pile of rubble in the near future.
Every ship that sunk around that time and era are all going to be disintegrate in the near future and what I mean all of them I mean the sisters of the titanic it self and other gorgeous ships
Thank you for sharing. The images confirm that there is no trace of shattered nobility left, just piles of decaying scrap covered with marine flora and fauna. I was 9 years old when the sinking occurred, but that year seemed dominated by the Russian invasion of Czechoslovakia.
Has anyone tried to get into the hold where the Chrysler Norseman prototype was when the ship went down? I would really like to see someone try to bring this car back.
Unfortunately that car, and the others, among them a Rolls Royce brought on by a first class passenger was destroyed in the collision. The garage was located in the section where the Stockholm hit.
Indeed, and well, by now, it would have rusted away anyway. The ship itself is more or less disintegrated. The bridge and stack was the first to go, and by now the entire superstructure is gone and the hull has begun to collapse into itself. Of course that gives the opportunity to find artifacts from cabins and so on, but other than that, there is not much left to see
@@CreandaWRONG! The Norseman was crated and loaded into Number 2 hold. You should not comment unless you really know what you are talking about....otherwise its just more internet mis information. Its been well documented the Norseman was crated by Ghia, who always shipped their cars in crates.
There's a great book on this called Deep Descent by Kevin F. McMurray. It's a great read and very informative about diving the Doria. Answers a lot of the questions people have posted. And this music is awful.
+WrestlingReview Guy The Doria's definitely one of them, with depths reaching over 200 feet at times. The Navy doesn't even make dive tables that deep.
@lisdiver I'm glad I can live vicariously through videos like this as I will never be brave enough to do any real deep diving myself. These environments are stunning, despite the dark history.. Would it be possible to use some of this footage for a story I am working on about the death of a diver who made significant discoveries at this shipwreck? No worries if not!
I figured the Doria to be the world's most beautiful ship in her sailing days, but if you were to drain the waters around the wreck and see it in the daylight now, it would look like something out of a bad nightmare and stink to high hell. All those squishy things growing on it. EEEEWWWWWWW!
I had heard over and over that the Andrea Doria was too dangerous to dive, because of lots of fishing nets that had hung up on her, and had been subsequently cut loose. Maybe they found an area that wasn't so fouled. I'd certainly want to go and see her if I was 'in the neighborhood' and didn't have an iron clad dive schedule. She sure was beautiful, the Italians have a gift of everything they design looking sexy! Cars, Airplanes, Cruise ships, and on and on, what have you. I'm sure that one day, they will be designing space vehicles, and of course, your Italian space ride will be sexy, too.
If that's the only reason you heard this was a dangerous dive then you probably have zero business trying to dive a wreck such as the Andrea Doria... just saying...
crazy theres a vid i just watched of them diving down to the wreck about 6 weeks after it sank...... if the technology or whatnot was available in 65 now u could go have a party down there! ha such a sad tragedy.. to watch that nice ship sink... with nothing anyone could do
Can’t tell exactly in the ship where you are. We need some narrating. Did you see any cargo crates possibly containing that Chrysler Norseman? Only car of its kind in existence?
Long gone, Mike. If you read comments BEFORE asking, you would have known that. The Norsemen had an aluminum body, so it would have deteriorated long before the wood crate would have. The dive in 1994 showed what was believed to be the car, but all that was discernable was some glass and the white wall tires. There were more than 50+ vehicles in the cargo hold, so the odds of it being the Norsemen...are very slim. When the ship capsized, I doubt much of anything stayed where it was lashed to the cargo hold deck. It was probably crushed on sinking, then the salt water took over. Aluminum disintegrates faster than steel in sea water, because of the slight alkalinity. Being so close to the surface, the wood crate the car was in also deteriorated rapidly, as well.
The Stockholm left a V-shapped wound in her side when they crashed in thick fog. She went down on her side as the Stockholm limped into NYC to get its bow rebuilt. A horrible mishap.
It's sad. The ship was beautiful one and was in pretty good condition for many years following it's sinking. Now, I know the upper structure has collapsed. Have to wonder how bad it'll be in about 20 years from now.
This ship actually sits in pretty shallow waters. If you look at the fact that the ship sank only 160' to the floor and that the ship had a beam of 90', it's only a 70' dive to the top of the wreckage. 70' ain't much when comparing it to Titanic which sank 2½ MILES!
@@ninedaysjane2466 In following the story of this disaster for many years, I’ve never come across any information at all to indicate that any bodies were removed. Very, very unlikely that occurred or was ever even discussed.
No disrespect intended, and RIP to all the people who died but what remains their now is just flesh and bone slowly decomposing and recycling back into the ocean. I think its very important to visit places like this. for example an individual named David Bright made over 120 dives here and ultimately found out how the ship sank. disasters like this should always be dissected and analysed, even years later.
ship is in 300 to 400 hundred feet of water,lying on its side 4 hours of decompression, there have been twelve people killed, 10 with the bends and others who got lost in wreck. it is a dive for a professional
+Jamesf Moriartyjr The Doria lies on her side in 160 - 241 feet (top of hull to bottom). It's NOT 300 - 400 feet, which would be practically impossible to dive, even using trimix gas. Get your facts straight...
Not much left f the poor old ship is there? I admire people who can dive on it. I sure as hell wouldn't want to go down there. I'm content to watch other people's videos.
If I buy a ticket to go scuba diving on this wreck, will the dive company rent me scuba gear? Can I sell any treasure I find on eBay? I'd like to get my picture taken standing at the ships wheel. How much does it cost to go out to this ship and dive?
The Doria sank in shallow water so it would deteriorate much faster...It we’ll be completely different if it’s in deeper water, like 2000 meters,wrecks could be well preserved if there’s no oxygen,no sunlight and cold.
wouldn't know don't watch it. Judging from a couple of the comments it looks like some spend a fair amount of time watching it. You do realize you can turn the volume down right?
It's amazing how many morons who complain about the "porno" music, are just admitting publicly, that they even know what that music is. Whether or not it even is what you think, it's just stock, royalty free music, so they aren't flagged by RUclips for copyright infringement. Period. As others have mentioned, you do realize you can either not watch the video or just turn the volume down. Pretty simple, right?
There’s also a car rotting in this wreckage, the unreleased Chrysler Norseman concept that no one ever got to see in person. The ship was carrying the car to New York to be prepared for its auto show exhibit in 1957. It’s the best example of an extinct car, only one ever made and never even debuted at all. You could say it never even existed. When the car was found in 1994, only the wheels were recognizable.
This is great. Thank you for sharing your "Doria" dive with us. I appreciate the documentation, as I remember listening to the actual sinking as a boy. I take it you stayed around the shell and remains of the Promenade deck, rather than attempting a deep penetration dive? I've always wanted some piece of the "Doria", something she carried onto the ocean floor.
@@jacktrevino1108 The reason it is so dark here and light on the Brittanic is the was off Massachusetts is more turbid. In other words the water is clear where the Brittanic.
Jeff, there are some thick panels with green and red checks, they appear to be porcelain. Those aren't pieces of the Gambone art panels, are they? Any idea what they are, and if they were recovered?

wouldn't know don't watch it. Judging from a couple of the comments it looks like some spend a fair amount of time watching it. You do realize you can turn the volume down right?
It's amazing how many morons who complain about the "porno" music, are just admitting publicly, that they even know what that music is. Whether or not it even is what you think, it's just stock, royalty free music, so they aren't flagged by RUclips for copyright infringement. Period.
As others have mentioned, you do realize you can either not watch the video or just turn the volume down. Pretty simple, right?
There’s also a car rotting in this wreckage, the unreleased Chrysler Norseman concept that no one ever got to see in person. The ship was carrying the car to New York to be prepared for its auto show exhibit in 1957. It’s the best example of an extinct car, only one ever made and never even debuted at all. You could say it never even existed. When the car was found in 1994, only the wheels were recognizable.
No shit. It's pretty obvious that you just learned this long shared piece of trivia. You're not sharing anything new here, Einstein.
Who cares about some damn car in a wreck like that . Diving this is an achievement way more important that some car which is a pile of dust by now
I can't see anything except ruins. No China..no furnitures..no nothing. This ship is in much worse condition than the Titanic.
lousy music
Such a shame that great ship sank.
1:52 is it the roof of a car?
No. Unfortunately
@@ussindianapolis9137 Unfortunately :(
This is great. Thank you for sharing your "Doria" dive with us. I appreciate the documentation, as I remember listening to the actual sinking as a boy. I take it you stayed around the shell and remains of the Promenade deck, rather than attempting a deep penetration dive? I've always wanted some piece of the "Doria", something she carried onto the ocean floor.
She I’d too deep to Scuba dive safely.....decompression. Is needed afterwards, extensively.
is this a night dive???
***** Nope it's just deep and dark.
Why is it so dark down there at 200ft when videos of the brittanic show there still being some light down there at 400ft? Is big scuba lying to me?
@@jacktrevino1108 The reason it is so dark here and light on the Brittanic is the was off Massachusetts is more turbid. In other words the water is clear where the Brittanic.
Non è l Andrea doria
Ffs lose the disco muzak
Can't find your volume control?
@@lisdiver Yes, but can they??
Jeff, there are some thick panels with green and red checks, they appear to be porcelain. Those aren't pieces of the Gambone art panels, are they? Any idea what they are, and if they were recovered?
PRR5406 I think they are pool tiles
Jeff Godfrey Might still have been worth recovery, considering the source. Nice documentation of the trip.
Filmato interessante musica oscena
why so many people died trying to shoot this ship? '-'
Ahhh...crustaceans, not much else.
People risk their lives for this? looks like a pile of rusty junk, covered in silt. Not for me.
it would be helpfull if a commentry was avalibul other than this boring music which serves nothing than makes people click the button and piss off
Nothing to see here, move along. Yeah, and the music is awful.
Que pinta esta música en este vídeo ??? Vaya mierda..
I want to do that
Porn movie music...for...DORIA GOES DEEP
Dreadful music in whom in god's name picked this horrible sound
How many of you are there that can't find the volume control on your computer? I'll post a video on how to use mute to you tube when I get some time.
Andrea Doria 1991 with John Chatterton, search this title, good Video. From what I have researched, it used to be less dangerous back then.
More dangerous you mean? As divers back then were penetrating deep inside the wreck for artifacts and also diving only on air!
John Chatterton is a serious diver and pioneer in wreck and technical diving. Just because he made it look easy does not mean it was easy! Lol
Kill the music!!!
Just mute it bruh
Grossly inappropriate music!
Just really bad music. Would’ve been better listening to the diver’s breathing.
Jeff, the music sucks. seriously...
Another one that can't find the volume knob
music sucks the big one.
VERY disrespectful music. This is a grave. Shame on you.
Turn off your volume if you don't like the music. You are not the arbitor of what is or is not disrespectful.
Lol
Boring
Car go SKRRRRRRRT
How deep was that?
~160 feet to reach the ship, 240 to the seabed.
