You should feature more US Civil War river fights.There were lots of interesting tech involved.The only problems=strong currents & traffic,if I’m right.
I lived in Norfolk Virginia in 74 and seen them bring the Monitor thru or it could have been the Monitor..I was in the hospital there.i was only 16 and I didn't know much about the history but it was a awesome sight
The first modern war was the Crimean war a decade earlier. It featured pretty much all the advances often claimed to have been first used during the US Civil War.
@@blam320 History. Ironclad batteries were used by France against Russian shore defenses (for instance the Lave), Telegraph, railroad, trenches, exploding shells... All of those were used during the Crimean War.
You are correct. However accurate information (a few inches of metal armor backed by 24-30 inches of oak and pine) might interfere with the dramatic presentation.
Crazy that the south found time between losing the war and being a bunch of racists to build a submarine 😂 that thing would be scarier to be in than on whatever it’s attacking.
Terrible documentary. Ridiculous over dramatic music, breathless commentary, over-reliance on computer generated animation, very little information and idiotic "scientists". When did National Geographic turn into TLC & the History Channel? Looking forward to the Alien Spacecraft in the next Drain the Oceans.
One of my favorite episodes for Drain the Oceans. The way they bring the shipwrecks into the light, despite being computer, it’s still amazing.
Can you imagine being a sailor in this era? No wetsuits, just pure terror
Can you imagine being a slave in this environment
Straight terrible fear and pain and terror and death ☠ 😢
I really love this Series
I like it, but the narrator gets annoying saying DRAIN THE OCEAN like 1000x every episode...
Dude the ironclad battle is so sick
Great video
I really loved national Geographic
i like nat geo
You don’t anymore?

That description of the Virginia was perfect. It legit chilled me to the bone.
Yeah I'm right there with you! The creepy laughing got me. I couldn't imagine anything funny about that situation.
One of the best series ever!
city of Dwaraka, drain the ocean for this godly city, you yourself will be in awe
A very groovy and informative documentary. Well done, well done indeed.
Thanks for meaningful and valuable video as always ❤❤❤
their content has a way of going inside of me, my mind.
@@henlohenlo689 Good. I will watch.
I think Monitors greatest challenge was not the battle it didn't sink her. I think it was the storm that put her on the bottom.
They LITERALLY said that........................
@@Twerkulies they literally said the battle with CSS Virginia was her greatest challenge. Not her death later.
Only drain the oceans'episodes'im fascinated coz I'm literally l🎈ves histories'since schooldays'🏆♨️⭐🎉🎉💐💐🙏♥️
Those ships are not to be disturbed, they are graves and must be respected, no matter which side they fought for, they where all Americans!

Informative
Wrong!The Virginia’s hull was not completely metal.The Monitor did ram the Virginia but it didn’t result in damage.
You are correct. However accurate information (a few inches of metal armor backed by 24-30 inches of oak and pine) might interfere with the dramatic presentation.
The outer layer was metal tho. That’s the important part. That is what hadn’t been done before then.
Nice 👌 😊
And the REACTION OF THE DAY AWARD goes to @TRUTH
yes boss you well balance keep it up
Tech N9naaaahhh... I was just as surprised as you when i first saw him... "Truth gonna lose it when he sees this"
Please FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ENABLE AUTO GENERATED SUBTITLES!!! These pre written ones are all over the screen, badly timed and always wrong!
The subtitles are going badly out of sync towards the end 🤨
Is there anyone here who has a photo of the USS Marblehead in the Philippines in 1927-1928? Helping a friend trace his grandfather's voyage
I think he needs to re uploaded the lost of giants
Perfect, evolution films
SpAr ToRpEdO ya don't let the fancy terminology fool you. It was an underwater bomb on a stick 😅

YOU CAN TAKE THE WAYER AWAY WHY CAN'T YOU TAKE THE SAND AWAY ALSO
More like Dr. James Cameron
Don't bad talk james If you want to see him in a Is better show. watch the show sea hunters
Is better show?
Did anyone watch the new civil war movie 2024? 😅
the main antagonists were absurdly dumb and racist.
I'll never get that time back....
United States Navy?
I know this sounds ridiculously naive, but instead of out innovating the enemy…..how about talking with them?
Hotdog
Subject is great , do your own research though , this is chock full of BS and drama
🎉🎉🎉🎉
✋✋
Your ads are ridiculous and over the top.
I accept its your income but every 5 mins is so uncomfortable to watch and greedy abuse.
we should have let them go it alone. The US would be a better country. The Confederacy would have failed on its own stupidity.
Crazy that the south found time between losing the war and being a bunch of racists to build a submarine 😂 that thing would be scarier to be in than on whatever it’s attacking.
boos she ah trouble she is giving problem
Both your narration and your script is pathetic . Not at all a good Nat Geo !
