I was there last week, a 3-4 level of viewing was amazing, you will never know the amazing, jaw dropping feeling until you physically go there and see this amazing piece of wonder! I took tons of pictures and videos but nothing captures the feeling like your own eyes really close to the ship!

Amazing presentation, information, and collection of workmanship by both ancient workers and today's workers. It really is a shame that this video series is not more suggested. I enjoyed all of this collection!

Great presentation. However, with swedish titles it is not recognizable that the narration is in english and there are even subtitles available! This brilliant museum needs more attendance! Cheers to Fred Hocker!

This series is absolutely fascinating. Thank you for this from the US

I remember from the Bataviawerf that the planks at the very bow had been severely charred while being bent wet over open fire to follow almost a circle quadrant either side of the bow.
One of the ships' carpenters there told me that this was also found on the wreck of the original ship. According to what I was told, the charring was so severe that the archeologists who excavated the wreck first thought that there had been a fire on board.
I wonder, are there similar traces on the planks in Vasa's bow?

How did salvers in the 1660s remove heavy guns from the ship - we are talking about primitive diving and removal of very heavy objects below decks in a sunken ship?

[@ssttvooo]

is it just me, or dose the interior of this ship look rather un-natural. it honestly took me longer then it should have, to realize this wasn't a still image on a green screen

[@mattderouen2323]

I thought the exact same thing, he looked unnatural while standing in the rooms

Why is the title of this video series in Swedish, even though the whole narration is in English? I think you are missing a whole lot of international audience just because you have titled (and described) the video in your native language. These videos are crazy interesting and informative

Swedish channel, by a Swedish museum which caters to a Swedish audience. Fred just happens to be American.
