AWESOME job on showing the detailed side of ship breaking !! Although many of the harsh conditions are glossed over, that's not what this documentary is about. Well done and thank you !
Having a totally automated port isn’t really a flex in my eyes. People need to work, especially now days. Making it fully automated puts thousands and thousands of people out of work, all so the companies can save money and be “more efficient”
What is amazing this made humans every peace and every part of the ship has biggest job and what it’s for deal with conditions and power house of the sea and the m weights and Money it takes is mad and just mad that’s skills I right hands will man power the whole world
He’s lucky he’s building them instead of living aboard. Merchant seafaring is indentured servitude for up to an entire year spent at sea with no time off working as much as 100 hours per week. American seamen have it relatively easy in that they typically only get stuck aboard for four months, but again, typically with no days off working up to 100 hours per week. Then you get these two month vacations back home where you don’t even know anyone who’s a seaman. It’s the twilight zone. I quit after eight years to become a barber.
@@Glenn-em3hv I was in the navy and got out. I could hardly wait to get out the entire time I was in because I foolishly volunteered for submarine duty. I got a shot at OCS and was so disgusted with the chickenshit double dose of boot camp that I resigned after just 3 days. In retrospect I might’ve found the navy more agreeable if I’d been maybe a cook or a ship’s serviceman [barber] instead of a quartermaster. I ended up in the merchant marine as a boatswain’s mate which means I really should’ve been a BM in the navy as well at least for that job. Lots of merchant marine officers are naval reservists and typically they’re not tempted to volunteer to go on active duty so that’s got to tell you something.
Thanks for sharing. First time hearing about the vikings landing in Newfoundland. It was only about 2 months ago, they found a wooden ship here by the Island. Never been explored yet I don't think. But never know, it could be a vikings boat maybe.
You do realize its the rate of change thats making climate change so deadly ? Sure the climate has gone thru cycles but that was over thousands of years not fifty . Nothing can adapt fast enough to survive
at 29:10-ish...it states the massive oil platform's impressive stats then it say's 'when empty it weighs a thousand tons'! this must be an error - something that massive (among the biggest in the world) must surely be in the hundreds of thousands of tons - shurely..
Very well done! Òne problem I did notice was the pronunciation of Newfoundland. It is not "NewFINland". It is "NewfnLAND". I should add that the presenter's pronunciation was at least original. I don't recall hearing that one ever before. I think most of my confreres in Newfoundland, if forced to accept a change, would not mind being associated with a country and a people like Finland, our new NATO friends.
I've always wanted to visit Antarctica but with the signing of the antarctic treaty by 130 nations which prevents citizens from going unless it's on a guided tour, I will never get to see that beautiful 150' ice wall that surrounds our globe and holds our ocean waters in! 😢
Oil drilling rig are transported by special ships. ALP Striker....is a specialist ship , the cargo it tugs is the oil drilling rig. The tow line cannot snap at sea.The pontoons show efficient stability. Such transport is extremely rare, and very risky . Tow lines have to be checked regularly by engineers in a rubber dingy. The destination of the drilling rig...the seven seas is a busy water way.
Regular German worker at the German port in Hamburg speaks english!! (he doesn't have to it's by choice for those arrogant people that think that he does) I wonder how many Americans at American ports speak German or any other language?! it shows how much more educated Europeans and Asians are and we wonder why they're doing better than we are!! our arrogance is the worst.
Absolutely. Bulk carriers are the most dangerous ships owing to their general lack of compartmentalization in tandem with the tendency of wet iron ore to form sulfuric acid which then eats holes in the hull. They literally vanish without a trace. Working bulk carriers on the Great Lakes isn’t quite as dangerous because the fresh water there isn’t as corrosive.
And why don't you give us the stats on how (1) How much pollution for one cargo ship Times (2) the number of cargo ships on the sea each day and (3) total pounds of pollution you creat JUST to get your toys from one international port to another. In the Millions of pounds per day ???
Barely a fraction of cars have gone electric, or probably ever will go electric. If you want zero emission ships, the only option would be giving them all nuclear power.
It will never happen. Most countries depend on exporting to fuel their GDP. Besides, we have enough fossil fuels underneath the USA to power the entire world for millennia.
Great job and thank you ever so much. Easy to watch, no hysteria, just the facts. 1++.
APPRECIATE the photography and COMMENTARY!!!

So relaxing documentary, thanks👍
MIND BLOWN GREAT JOB !
Excellent program guys, thanks.
Amazing beautiful people. Bless them . ❤
Loved the video
We love Savannah seen a lot of ships come into port but never from the ship’s bridge very cool
This is one of the greatest documentaries I have ever seen.
A cruise ship is probably the worst type of holiday ever
Yeah. It's boring.

People make mistakes which costs money. Not that complicated
I am glad those port jobs are still available in America. There would be much more people living in poverty if all those jobs went automotive.
@@Unknown-y9v more people out of work, means less ship containers, means less money earned. not complicated.
So you think it's better to preserve mind numbing and often dangerous manual jobs and charge people more money for it too?
What is amazing this made humans every peace and every part of the ship has biggest job and what it’s for deal with conditions and power house of the sea and the m weights and Money it takes is mad and just mad that’s skills I right hands will man power the whole world
as a kid i always wanted to sale the ocean, but it never happened " says it with the most heart broken smile ever"
How old are you? Never too late. I started my officer cadetship at tge age of 44, I am 46 now and loving it.

Getting out of the Navy after my 4 years was up was the biggest mistake I've ever made and I'll always regret it!!!

I would hate to think he was pressured to say something so inspiring about work that is so laborious and likely low wage.

48:27 Captain Crunch!
Best comment in this string.
So many others just complain.
AMAZING MEN & CAPABLE WOMEN 🎉
Very nice documentary with a few faults. Also nice to hear a voiceover that was not all positive to ANYTHING. 8/10
Do you guys have somebody smoking a bong in the back room of your audio or am I just that high myself?
😎🎄🍿🥤 peanut butter 🥜🍪
7:23 nice idea to print it ).
7:27 ups... Egipt closed the gap ?!?
All those new ships would raise the water level
Big bad Global Warming..wish they would talk about how earth goes through climate changes all by itself. That's facts.
You do realize its the rate of change thats making climate change so deadly ? Sure the climate has gone thru cycles but that was over thousands of years not fifty . Nothing can adapt fast enough to survive
Or explain to me how there were worse hurricanes in late 1800's early 1900's
and human intervention can very possibly fix the problem. Give it a few years of development
It's all about more power carbon isn't the problem
😂😂😂😂😂

I like how this focuses on Chinese shipbuilders. China’s shipbuilding industry is the world’s largest.

Fascinating topic but way way to many 25 sec advertisements.
I’m sorry, did you say 280eur a month??? Um 😮
Very educational. My favorite part was when they brought up the Neanderthals 170 thousand years ago. Thanks for all your hard work and research.
Some ships are speciality ship that takes on exotic jobs. The Polaris roams the seven seas
and than it needs one, not even a such big one, shippy to block the whole Suez canal. And time stands still....
Хотел бы отправиться в такой круиз
Jacque Cousteau had his four "mast" rotosail that accompanied the Calypso on many vougages.
Leonardo Javier Chile Curicó ❤❤❤❤
Cruise ships are so "overboard". Anyone? No one at all?
Want a cleaner ship? Thorium MSR propulsion

Why measures then wrong ifts circle?

I was in the Navy and I've seen lines snap and it's incredible!!!
It's a giant rubber band that will cut anything in half that it hits!!!
Of course we can use environmentally friendly. Perhaps the super yachts of the rich should do the same.
Is that the super yachts they will abandon for a "life on mars" 😂🤔👍🏻
I figured folks would be flocking to this after what happened with the Key Bridge in Baltimore. Go figure.
How many jobs these high technology snatched
Who built the canal??? That's right so why don't we get the money to travel it???
In the US we have no automation
shore workers union - not for them or against them - they can shut the docks down in an hour
That's why you're no longer a world power! 🇨🇳
Is Ian McShane narrating this? Sure sounds like him.
I think it's Sean Bean!
Jan needs to be replaced, see how he likes it.
I think ITS CUTE...humans somehow think they are effecting and or changing the climate...
I think it’s cute how idiots like you think that we aren’t….
I don't want to wait to find out if your theory is correct or not. The bottom line is time to move on like beta versus VHS
Yeah...bet you know everything eh?

I can't stand when they play welding noises when they're oxyfuel cutting.

Americans at American ports don’t have to speak German to communicate. English is the world’s common language.
This is why the oceans are rising!!!!!
“This is why the oceans are rising!!!!!”…🤡🤡🤡
So miniscule as to be inconsequential.
people being brainwashed is rising.
Giant polluters of the sea
Too much effort; too little efficiency.
We are converting some OIL TANKERS and FREIGHTERS into vertical missile launchers, each will hold 1,000+missiles! 🇨🇳
Government mouth piece here
Ban cruise ships waste of fuel.
Miles and feet please.
Shut up about global warming and the metric system.
As soon as I heard "In times of climate change", I switched the program well and truly OFF
freemasons much?
Who else is watching this for school
Not me🎉
Ahh so thats why dozens of bulk carriers sink every year🇨🇳

They will just make more!!! Job security!
More jobs lost to automation …wonderful…🙄

Chyna lol

Maybe do some research on it yourself?
👍
All of the cargo ships should just go electric just like all the cars did.
Or hydrogen. Which might be about to have it's day, at sea.
@@rocketassistedgoat1079 really?
Not possible
Barely a fraction of cars have gone electric, or probably ever will go electric. If you want zero emission ships, the only option would be giving them all nuclear power.
Global shipping is a giant waste of fossil fuels, grow and produce locally, no more ships and planes burning fuel to save money!
It will never happen. Most countries depend on exporting to fuel their GDP. Besides, we have enough fossil fuels underneath the USA to power the entire world for millennia.
1000 tons ?????🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
