how is the Prinz Eugen not on this list? she was a German battlecruiser that survived the the entirety of ww2 and was given to the Americans. the Americans decided to use her for nuclear testing in operation crossroads. they nuked her twice, and she survived. they then towed her to kwajalein atoll, in which the ship that survived ww2 and two atomic bombings hit a bunch of rocks, capsized and sank. you can still see half the wreck out of the water.
The boat you see leaving the harbour in the beginning of the show is the Minnow. It was been restored and is in Vancouver, B.C. It's a beautiful boat, written up in the magazine, 'Wooden Boat." The other boats used in the show were props.
Kee Bird was destroyed by the APU breaking loose from her badly rusted mounts, which then flailed around in the tail, rupturing the fuel tanks which sprayed on the hot APU and caused the fire. It was a real tragedy considering that she was largely in perfect shape other than that after the engines and a few other minor things were replaced.

In the Java Sea English and Dutch war wrecks have disappeared off the seabed, and they even stolen the propellers from one of our cruisers! Why was a cofferdam needed for that wreck? (dry docks flood and then rise by the way) What was built there is a cofferdam. Maine was raised using that method just prior to WW1. - former shipbuilder.
They were concerned about what kind of waste they could find inside the wreck. Some talked about radioactive materials. The location and weather there made the coffer dam the best solution. Though, during construction, a winter storm took down the NW wall off the dam. Got delayed many months.
Saw the movie, William Shatner and Richard Basehart, were in it, Richard Baseharts character, was the sole survivor, of the plane and the ghosts of the crew were pissed off that he survived and they seriously messed with him
4:10 is Key West. I just moved from there a year ago and had been there for almost 7 years. The picture to my left was taken at a sandbar not to far from Key West.
The aircraft boneyards in Az serve another purpose you didn't mention kid; they're not just waiting , they're repairing. Aluminum gets microfractures over time in service and all aluminum planes must eventually take a break. In the dry air, bare aluminum will actually heal like skin. Those micro-fractures which could have caused a mid-air accident, exploding people out the hull, become as good as new after a few years in the sun as long as someone strips the paint beforehand.
i knew that expansion and contraction was what led to aforementioned micro-fractures but i had no idea it could repair its self due to the weather, thats pretty damn cool if its true
Jesus, how easy is it to lose an entire ship? The conversation with his boss probably was like "uhm sir, we lost the gigantic war ship that can be seen from eighteen freaking miles away" they were probably fired on the spot
what you play I know you think blood angels are fluffy but you haven't played my list probably shit know cause 8th but like all the special droughts I have will slaughter any shit an army can through at me
Saw the Russian ship lots of times in St.John's. It was bought to be refurbished but after a couple years tied up in St.John's it was infested with rats. The company who bought the ship also had financial problems, their tug was also seized becouse it was deemed unseaworthy by Canadian Standards. It was spotted off Ireland and was listing badly, and shortly after it eburd went off which means it probably sank.
The F-4U Corsair was originally intended asUS Navy carrier plane. It's landing speed was too high, was given to Marines for operation of land bases. "Whistlening Death" as the Japanese called it was a feared opponent to Zero pilots.
There are old geezers who fix up WW2 planes and fly them in airshows. Obviously, when you are doing maintenance on a 70 or 80 year old plane, there isn't anyplace you can call for parts. You have to repair the part you have, or make an entirely new part just like it in a machine shop which is crazy expensive. The third option is to try to salvage the part from another aircraft just like it, which is probably what they were referring to.
I find it so funny when old warships are painted in a green camouflage, I mean it's a ship that's in the ocean, it should of been a greyish blue camouflage
This is one of those channels that has a lot less subscribers than it should. It's only a matter of time though for it to blow up. Love your videos, keep up the great work.
Its a curious thing how we leave our military junk just littering the planet. What does this say about us? What would a tourist to this planet think of us?
I remember this ship well as we managed to find this isolated cliff and small beach created by the American Star on holiday to Fuerteventura in about 1998 it stood tall and straight then although broken in 2 :/
I've read of the Lady Be Good many times over the years and seeing the story presented again here is as gripping/interesting as discovering it for the first time.

No dumbass! YOU'RE WRONG! You are off by FOUR YEARS. Watch the discovery of the Titanic video - it shows the EXACT day and year that Titanic was actually discovered on the bottom of the ocean floor. Don't come on here making idiotic and ignorant comments if you don't know what you're talking about!
Jack Grimm thought he found a piece of the Titantic, in 1981 but Dr Robert Ballard with the help of Woods hole oceanographic institution and a French team found the Titantic in September of 1985
Wolf Playz A number of reasons, Idiot, they might not have been able to turn in time, it was probably foggy, so they couldn't see it, hell, the crew could have been partially awake! Do your fucking research before criticizing something, good day.

I dived on the Eugen in 1987. Really fantastic dive!
cruiser. not battlecruiser...
Prinz Eugen is a
Heavy Cruiser.
Its an Admiral Hipper Class, a Heavy Cruiser which sailed with the Bismarck on the Atlantic sea sinking cargo planes.
Enjoy hearing stories of old ships and airplanes. Cool vid
Of all the equipment on a warplane, they salvaged an armrest?
-Suburban- ikr
Its what washed up on shore not the one thing they salvaged
Robert Flores but why would they want to salvage a armrest of an old plane. That’s whats the original poster was trying to say
It's a "in memory of" type of thing
_Suburban_ yeah man I'm not sure how much I believe that lol
Great video I totally enjoyed it... Keep them coming...
You forgot the S.S. Minnow lost during a 3-hr tour!
Hahaha! X'''D
With Gillian the skipper too, a millionaire and his wife, a super star, the professor and mary Anne here on Gilligans island

Some one died if I remember correctly also that was in charge of repairing the plane.
it would still be an amazing museum piece if you could remove the wings and air lift it. Especially with a dark history like that.
4:39 is the victory flight over the USS Missouri after the surrender of Japan
I just discovered your site and subscribed (and checked the little bell thingie). Interesting stuff. I love your accent.
I worked on the Murmansk scrapping project. Moved a lot of rock to make that dry dock!

There was a good TV movie made around 1971 based on the Lady B. Good called Soul Survivor. In it the crew remained at the wreck as ghosts.
Saw the movie, William Shatner and Richard Basehart, were in it, Richard Baseharts character, was the sole survivor, of the plane and the ghosts of the crew were pissed off that he survived and they seriously messed with him
@@willielarimer7170 ...Might have to watch that I think. Good job folks. Sounds like a good flick :-)
Also watch the twilight zone episode called King 9 will not return, also based on the B24 the lady be good
it was fascinating to see the lengths one must take to dismantle a huge ship .as in that last case. good job. thank you for posting.
Awesome!!! Very nice job!! Keep going!! For a fan from Brazil!!!

Thanks :D
2:49 that ship decided to explore the world on its own. You go ship!
Thank you for posting - Very Informative in an Top Educational Manner👏👏👏+++
there was no USAF in 1943.. USAAC/F
US Army Air Corps/Force
or in most of 1947. the u.s. air force was born in September 18, 1947.

Haunting to think there are possibly many abandoned ships out there on the oceans just floundering around, waiting to be found
Ah, a nice countdown mechanism and subtitles.
Thank you :D
Really cool video thanks for ur hard work
I love the videos, we can’t go back I’m time but thank God we have the videos, thanks for doing that
I love watching these videos, so interesting and informative! I love the narration, too!
The *KEE BIRD* is still there, it's now a Hunk Of *"Crispy Arctic Metal Chicken"* XD
Is that the one that was "restored"?
Awsome video well done dude.

I'd like to see citation/article/proof of this.
thanks for being a good channel thats not click bait!!!!!! :)
You sunk my battleship!
(Great video & great comedic timing!)
Whats your battleships name?
Great video. You always have good topics, and must say your narrating is becoming a lot better. Thanks for a good one.
I love your content. You earned a new sub and fan. Keep up the good work.
:D
Finally someone who mentions Titanic,I will subscribe for doing that!
I dove the corsair last year. Most amazing dive of my life.

GREAT VID !
I want to explorer Lyubov Orlova. Sounds to good to be true, drifted in betewen Ireland & Iceland?

Did anyone else hear " the shit was loved by many" at 5:33
Juan Cena Burrito man he said ship
Juan Cena Burrito man oh dang dude that's epic your my bro duuuudddee

If a machine has been wrecked under spooky circumstances, don't reuse the parts.
Hey, good work
Wow that was so cool
Love the video great work
love your stuff man keep it up
Thanks !
Very interesting. (And the asides, hilarious. Subscribed)
so what exactly is so strange about these wrecks
Nothing, just clickbait.
KingreX32 the boat wrecks look kinda creepy i guess. i wouldnt want to go in there.
Cthulhu Has Risen you Mamma's butt! 😅💩
James Lechleider 5 year old

Hey, let's go on a cruise!
Sure, where are we going to?
A spot where a other cruise ship wrecked!
Great vid mate and I like the effort you put into the graphics. Thanks for sharing
Jesus, how easy is it to lose an entire ship?
The conversation with his boss probably was like "uhm sir, we lost the gigantic war ship that can be seen from eighteen freaking miles away"
they were probably fired on the spot
Love your stuff. Keep up the good work budd.
i dont think ships like being scraped or restored
mark mclarnon Go back to your training Blood Angel
what you play I know you think blood angels are fluffy but you haven't played my list probably shit know cause 8th but like all the special droughts I have will slaughter any shit an army can through at me
mark mclarnon yes they do, it feels good.

Ghost ships get your soul in the end.
What a well made video !!! I really liked watching it ! Thank you !
The Russian ship that was loose was spotted in december 2017 coast of puerto rico
o lol
Ghost ship.
Oh yeah yeah
Rat's are at the helm.
xlibshua rat ship
Great, good videos

Ian Rumbolt : Full of Rat's? Then it must have docked in Washington dc.
Amazing video.
That’s so weird just thinking of an empty ship just floating in the ocean all alone
Ricky M a i n imagine a cruiser or a tanker going by wondering why the boat is idle like that trying to talk through radio 🤔 and nobody is there
Its actually not that uncommon. Ofc it's very rare but not thaaat rare. I mean thats how so called "ghost ships" work
Stuff like this is so cool! Thanx!
Glad you liked it :)

The P-47 got more use as a fighter-bomber in WWII than the Corsair.
misterjag Corsair was only used in Pacific not most used plane of ww2 at all
The F-4U Corsair was originally intended asUS Navy carrier plane. It's landing speed was too high, was given to Marines for operation of land bases. "Whistlening Death" as the Japanese called it was a feared opponent to Zero pilots.
The Royal Navy was the first to fly them off their carriers. The USN later had them as part of their Carrier Air Groups.
@@stalinium4769 he said most used "fighter bomber"....it was the most successful with an 11 to 1 kill ratio.
Damn I know I'm old one you remember the titanic being found being big news
AJ Help I don't think your old
Great vid thanks, love it.
U have the perfect voice for this.

In 1994 parts of Lady Be Good were salvaged and used in other planes? Huh?
There are old geezers who fix up WW2 planes and fly them in airshows.

Who... Are you?
That was awesome and I give it a thumbs up!👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed the video :D !
They tow ships out to international waters and just leave them there to float around?
If it hasn't been spotted in years, I think it sank. With the traffic on the oceans today, derelict ships are found sooner or later.
I was at the Murmansk ship before they made that dock around it:) it was quite stunning
I'm amazed by the lack of Prinz Eugen on here.
This is one of those channels that has a lot less subscribers than it should. It's only a matter of time though for it to blow up. Love your videos, keep up the great work.
I live by the duke of Lancaster!!!!!! :)
I live in Queensferry. I see this proud ship every week. Breaks my heart to see it just rotting away.
cool video!!! thanks!
should add the ss Kyle that is in harbour Grace Newfoundland to your list
Interesting video... Thanks!
Your kee bird history is not correct...the a.p.u. caught on fire when they were taxiing for take off and it burned the entire back half off.
very interesting! Thanks for making/uploading
Couldn't finish watching this because the visual effects are so ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!
Kee Bird at 2:57 and the S.S. America at 6:34 are my favourite abandoned ships and planes in this video. Thanks for this very interesting video!
Hahahahahahahaha....... Wow u don't know how to how to spell favorite!!!!!!!
I’ve been to the beach where the American Star was, almost nothing is left of my beloved S.S. America. 😔 🇺🇸 🚢
I see the name “Kee Bird” and instantly cry.

William Thomas Or that
How about rudder malfunction, loss of engine power, or ghosts pirates took over the ship and crashed because they couldn't find the sails
