just a quick side-note: Schettino was a certified captain long before the became Head of Security at Costa - apparently some folks in the industry said it's not uncommon for a captain to take a lower job in a company to make it easier for when a captain position opens - but he was *very* bad under pressure
@@midknight9715 being captain of a ship, specially a cruise ship, would require at the very least Bachelor's Degree in Nautical Sciences and Merchant Mariner Credential, plus whatever other certifications the company requires - they don't just *let* you captain a huge multimillion dollar vessel if they don't know you have the knowledge for it
Still I would have thought there would be an experience requirement, IE captaining a smaller vessel before being hired to captain a cruise ship, kind of like how to become a captain on a plane you need to be a co-pilot of x amount of hours.
I'd like to clarify some stuff regarding Titanic as a lifelong enthusiast. 1. Titanic was an ocean liner, not a cruise ship. She had a strict schedule to keep and didn't have the luxury to just slow down for no apparent reason. 2. She was actually designed to stay afloat with 4 compartments flooded over the standard 2. 3. She carried more lifeboats than required by law, but sank before all of them could even be lowered. 4. It's a myth that she wasn't given enough boats to satisfy the demands of first class passengers and her owners. No ships of the era carried that many lifeboats, tramp steamer or luxury liner. 5. The way Titanic struck the iceberg and sank was incredibly bizarre and specific. It's not the kind of accident you could replicate if you tried. 6. Titanic lasted far longer than expected, and far longer than an older ship would have. 7. There wasn't much of a panic on board Titanic until around 1:40 AM when people realised that the ship was actually sinking. For about an hour, even the officers didn't know, and lower ranked crewmen weren't told, either. Luckily for them, Titanic sank on a mostly even keel, so her lifeboats were able to be lowered calmly and safely. Additional fact: in 1912, lifeboats were supposed to be used as ferries. Never before were they expected to carry a ship's entire compliment of passengers. By 2012, lifeboats were designed to do the opposite, but since Costa Concordia capsized, her lifeboats had to act as ferries.
Yes, there were many ships on the same route going back-and-forth all the time. Therefore, they always thought they would be close to a rescue ship and would only need a few boats to transfer people to the other ship. To be fair, they were exactly right. There was a smaller ship called the Californian that was so close its crew saw Titanic‘s lights and flares. They even thought they saw the bow lower than the stern. (Titanic sinking) Unfortunately, they’re only radio operator went to sleep shortly before Titanic’s troubles and the captain of the Californian wrongly thought they were sending flares up to communicate with another White Star ship or for an onboard party. They would’ve had time to save most people but made absolutely no effort after seeing the flares to get back on the radio to see if they needed help or travel just a few miles to the Titanic to try to render aid. It’s sickening. / Of course, Captain Rostron Of the Carpathia bravely sped toward the Titanic at full speed risking damaging his own ship. He just couldn’t get there fast enough to save more people. The passenger known as The Unsinkable Molly Brown” Organized a committee to raise money and give Rostron a metal for his bravery. There is also a collection among the first class passengers for some of the widows and children of the lower classes.
29:53 I disagree with Chatbro. Anyone desperate enough for money that they need to sell raw metal won’t have the skills or resources to retrieve, much less make a profit from, the bell. I’ll put aside that scuba gear is expensive and requires maintenance on top of skill to operate. I’ll even put aside that you either need extra equipment to get the bell out solo or other people with similar skills and kit to help you. That just leaves you with the idea of melting it down for money, which...is patently absurd. Virtually everyone that sells scrap metal that’s then melted down for profit doesn’t do it themselves. They go to scrapyards. What’s more, they do it with metals that scrapyards can at least reasonably deny knowing was stolen. Seeing some addict rock up to your scrapyard with the Costa Concordia’s bell is the mother of all red flags. If it wasn’t lost in the wreck, then I assume it was stolen by folks who wanted it for the fact that it was the CC’s bell.
I imagine it's probably another Rembrandt situation, where someone just has this big ass bell in storage that they can't sell because it's too well known for anyone to take the risk of buying it. That or it's just lying at the bottom of the ocean somewhere and nobody's found it yet.
@@CruelestChris Oh dear God their military. So I'm not sure what it's like now but generally in the world wars the Italian *soldier* was quite brave, Rommel liked them and the British seemed to respect them. Problem is that whole paradigm of "lions led by donkeys" combined with such industrial incompetence that the Germans had to equip them.
Additional fun fact: Costa's parent company, Costa Cruiselines, owns Cunard Lines, including the single remaining transatlantic ocean liner remaining in service. _RMS Queen Mary 2_ recently celebrated 20 years of service. Fortunately Cunard operates according to their traditional standards. And yes, _QM2_ also does cruises on her off seasons. But she's otherwise very busy crossing a whole ocean like her namesake.
13:24 the reason is that you need enough volume onboard the ship. If it's filled with water the massive ship will sink. When they say the ship is designed for two breaches, that's how much extra water is needed before the ship starts sinking since the Buoyancy needed to keep it afloat is not enough.
Apparently the Titanic had more life boats than it was required by the standards back then. There were always other ships close enough, so if rescue was necessary the life boats were used to ferry the passengers to other ships in multiple rounds, they weren't intended to keep the people alive on their own. Only modern life boats have enough room for everyone, as well as a radio, and probably some supplies for a day or two.
Note: given the circumstances, the fact that all lifeboats got out of the ship (via the Davits or being carried by the Ocean once the Final Plunge occurred) carrying passengers is pretty damn miraculous.
@ZKP314 Well, the very last two weren't so lucky. The overturned collapsible B was nearly crushed by the first funnel collapsing, and collapsible A was so swamped with water that many people in it still died of exposure. There was a couple that made it to collapsible A, but neither one survived. One of them, I forget which, was inside and soaked while the other clung to the gunwale from the outside. Neither of them knew where the other was, and they both perished before the boat was taken in by Carpathia.
True, and if they were going slower and or had hit the iceberg head on they may have stayed afloat, or at least stayed afloat longer for rescue boats to arrive and get people off the ship before it went down, and before a huge amount of people died of hypothermia in the water.
@@ZKP314 This, Lusitania is a perfect example of a decent amount of lifeboats, more than enough for the passengers and crew, but so many of them failed, sometimes flipping and dumping the occupants while being lowered, sometimes coming loose from the davits and plunging into the ocean, some never got free of the davits and got dragged down with the ship.
@@G1NZOU There's no definitive evidence that Titanic would have survived a head-on collision. Yes, other ships had struck icebergs and rocks head-on before and survived, but to my knowledge, none of them were even close to the same size. It's a very heated topic for debate, and not one which I subscribe fealty to. Since it insofar hasn't been proven or disproven, I can see reason why anyone would argue either way. That said, it's silly to assume any ship's officer would willingly slam a ship into an iceberg head on. It is absolutely 100% not the first choice one should make.
The helmsman being a new guy isn't that uncommon, you have to get experience somewhere. However, the captain should have replaced the inexperienced helmsman for a risky maneuver like the sail-by salute. The helmsman can get more experience when they are out in the open seas. Ships are built to two compartment flooding as a balance between cost, safety, and functionality. The two compartment flooding is the industry standard as a balance. Because the general "worst case" scenario, and the breach is right on the join between two compartments and both flood. A long gouge in the hull like this is an unlikely case, they were more concerned about a collision between two ships than hitting a rock. In a case like this, the idea is to keep the ship floating long enough to evacuate to the lifeboats.
In modern day it's pretty legit since companies have spent literal millions on determining the best bottles and methods for breaking off the side of the ship, so if the bottle bounces it means the company cut so many corners they couldn't even be bothered to read a *free* approved list of bottles to use that Lockheed Martin spent something like $15 million researching.
The bell was stolen after it sank, it was only 26 feet under water at the time, they suspected multiple people but never had clear evidence. It was deemed unimportant and investigated more important things.
I may be wrong about this, but I think a ship's bell is perhaps the most valuable item of a shipwreck, this is because for sailors, a Bell is the Ship's voice. Despite now days using Radio or Horns for signals, a Bell is still rang when a ship is about to depart port out of tradition; Some of the more famous wrecks have their bells recover (legally) and are held in museums or private collections, like Titanic's, HMS Hood's, Edmund Fitzgerald's among others - BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT because this bell was stolen on what was a still active investigation scene, anyone caught with it would be going to prison if found out. So they stole something they can't sell without risking thief and buyer some jail time - I would leave this to the Maritime Lawyers to correct me on this one.
This was the biggest "cruise ship" disaster since the Titanic, however there is a famous case of the "MS Estonia", and there are recordings of the mayday and rescue radio traffic on YT (even with subtitles, useful since the radio operators speaking Finnish for almost all of it). Although in stark contrast to the above video, the people were actually professionals trying to save lives and not just their own skins. The video is called "M/S Estonia Mayday Call With Subtitles, Tribute" here on YT and it's harrowing to listen to. In the end, 852 people died from that accident.
Of course, _Titanic_ was an ocean liner. _Estonia_ was a type of RO/RO ferry where the door and ramp were hidden behind a visor that made up the bow, which while a cool design, was also fatally flawed at speed in a storm. The results were entirely predictable. Other ferry disasters include _MV Sewol_ , and _MV Dona Paz_ 's collision with _MV Vector_ , a cargo ship carrying petrol. Again, predictable results, but a death toll exceeding 9,000 because of how overloaded the ferry was. There's _Stockholm_ ramming _Andrea Doria_ in the fog, _Storstadt_ also ramming _Empress of Ireland_ in the fog on the St. Lawrence River, _RMS Lusitania_ getting torpedoed during the First World War, and _HMHS Britannic_ hitting a German mine, also in WWI. _Olympic_ got a spot of revenge for her youngest sister, though, ramming a U-boat and forcing him to surface and surrender. It was the one collision she had in her career that _was_ purposeful.
Also biggest peacetime disaster, there were a couple of German ships sunk in WW2 that were evacuating people from the Soviet Union that had absolutely staggering death tolls.
the lieing to the passengers reminds me of the korean school ship disaster. where most of the survivors were the kids that disobeyed the commands given by the lieing crew.
An interesting side note to that is that was one of the catalysts behind their absolutely wild and totalitarian press rights laws. *No criticism of government employees allowed ever, no matter how factually true or correct!* The investigation caused so much criticism of Park's government that they rammed through a defamation law that direct criticism "assists destabilization of public order" and basically implies anyone who does so is doing so at the behest of the North Korean government (aka, it's basically a sedition charge) It carried a mandatory minimum 7 year sentence, which has even been enacted upon foreigners! A Japanese reporter who wrote about it, Tatsuya Kato, was hit with libel and found guilty. Before the discovery of her cult ties deposed her, this temporarily earned her the nickname "Korea's Clinton" 😅
The purpose of an arrest is to essentially both punish and essentially put the accused in line. Meaning if you are willing to obey the jury and the law. You are good in their books.
I mean, if he hadn't been closer than the safe distance, there would have been plenty of leeway to make such mistakes. While the helmsman did mess up, there's no reason a ship like that should be in a situation where every second counts. Especially not since the seas were calm.
To clarify that one super chat was incorrect. It wasn’t malicious, it was because during Titanic’s day there was no regulation regarding the number of Life boats required for a ship that large. Safety features on ships back then were more keen on Preventative action rather than reactionary. The idea was that the Transatlantic route was so busy that if something were to happen, a ship could send out a telegram and nearby ships would respond. The life boats would then ferry passengers from the sinking ship to the rescue ship. It’s understandable when you realize the Life Boats used back then were incredibly dangerous to use In the ocean. Had there been a storm it’s completely possible no one would have survived.
@@camellia_vt There were two other ships nearby when the Titanic sank, the Carpathia and the Californian. The Carpathia tried to help but was too far away to make it in time; the Californian was closer but her captain basically ignored what was happening.
@@camellia_vt I’m not to versed in twitch stuff lol. There was a ship about 15 or so miles out from Titanic called the Californian. However they only had one radio operator and he had gone to bed. Californian’s captain had seen Titanic on the horizon and noticed something was going on, but decided not to investigate it. Keep in mind that a lot of things that you might expect to be common practice on ships were not really regulated at the time, but it’s because of the Titanic that things like a constant radio watch, lifeboats, etc. are now considered a basic and common practice. Keep in mind to that this is essentially in the early years of the steel hulled ships. 50 years before Titanic, sailing ships were in vogue. And back then, if something happened at sea, you were for sure dead. The late Industrial Revolution had really caused the shipping industry to progress at break neck speed and regulations and policy struggled to keep up, even into the Golden Age of the Oceanliners. Martime regulations are almost all Written in Blood.
In fact the knee-jerk reaction to _Titanic_ actually caused a sinking which killed more passengers (though not as many in total) because they put too _many_ lifeboats on it and it capsized. Despite only being in 20 feet of water, because most people on board couldn't swim. Look up SS _Eastland_ for the details.
Ships are generally engineered very well and precisely. Things happen, though, when the company that's buying said ship decides to cut back on safety measures to, say, make things more navigable for passengers. The whole reason _Titanic_ 's watertight bulkheads didn't go high enough? So the halls wouldn't be a complete maze. The reason they cut back on the number of lifeboats? So First Class would have a clear view of the ocean. They still more than met the British Board of Trade regulations, and lifeboats were more a way to ferry passengers to waiting rescue ships than something you used to stay out of the water for long periods of time. The biggest and best 'lifeboat' was still considered to be the ship itself. Especially with as many safety measures and redundancies as the Olympic-class had. It's just that the breaches went too far for the ship to stay afloat, and the water coming in was too overwhelming. In basic terms, a ship floats because the water it displaces together with the air inside the hull cause the ship to be subjected to an upward force exceeding that of gravity. This allows the ship to sit on the water without sinking. If a ship is breached, there is still a certain amount of water it can take on before the air forced out of the hull causes that upward pushing force to be less than gravity's, and the boat sinks. In both the cases of _Titanic_ and _Lusitania_ , survivor reports include hearing the sounds of air hissing from nearby vents -- the sound of air being forced out of the hull by the onrushing water. And there are a lot of cavernous, empty spaces that water can fill as a result of hull breaches, like ventilation shafts and stairways. In fact, _Titanic_ 's crew checked the water's progress numerous times by checking stairwells. Ships can get rated by how many compartments adjacent to each other that can be filled with water without having the ship sink, assuming those compartments are fully sealed, unlike those on _Titanic_ . She was still safety rated for four compartments flooded, accounting for port and starboard sides. But the iceberg opened up a fifth compartment, just barely, and also busted some rivets, causing gaps in the ship's skin. Speaking of a ship's skin, a double-bottom has been standard for a really long time. Double-layered hulls all the way around? Not so much. In the design of the Olympic-class, the team under Thomas Andrews could not conceive of a situation where the ship's hull would take that much of a breach. Plus, the ship had pumps, and the doors closed automatically once the water level got high enough. The Lusitania-class, on the other hand, were commissioned to be easily converted into auxiliary warships, so they had more complete double hulls. Unfortunately this didn't save _Lucy_ herself. But after _Titanic_ sank, one of the refits to _Olympic_ was to install a full second skin so she couldn't be sunk like her middle sister. And her younger sister _Britannic_ was actually made larger to accommodate the second skin without losing any of the space. Unfortunately the force of the explosion from the mine she struck warped some of the bulkhead frames, preventing the watertight doors from closing, and nurses had left portholes open to air rooms out, giving water even more ways to get inside. Fortunately the crew was well-drilled, and there was no one else aboard. The evacuation went almost perfectly: the only casualties were from crew who launched two lifeboats early, without orders, and got sucked into the propellers as the captain tried to see if he could beech the ship. He couldn't. Violet Jesupp, who had been aboard _Olympic_ when she crashed with _HMS Hawke_ , and aboard _Titanic_ , survived the last sister's sinking by being very lucky the propellers didn't kill her, and then she was rescued later by a lifeboat. Lucky or unlocky? _Olympic_ , the oldest and last sisters, was scrapped in 1935 beside her primary competitor, _Mauretania_ . Some ships did have flaws built into them due to their designs. A big one was a center of gravity being too high up, creating a list or roll. The former was true of _SS Imperator_ , a German liner that earned the nickname 'Limperator' because not one photo has him sitting straight. The latter was true of _RMS Queen Mary_ , which despite additional stabilizing fins, became known as 'Rolling Mary' for her constant, slow roll from side to side. It was so bad at once point, sailors aboard her escort found themselves looking directly down her funnels. But she never capsized. Also, thinner steel is used on cruise ships than on ocean liners. They just don't have to weather storms like liners do.
I congratulate you on being the only Vtuber I've seen to immediately clock that the reason the captain changed into his suit was to avoid being identified. Most people seem confused by this detail, but you caught on immediately.
I dunno where I read it, but it basically said that it's actually good that the Helmsman who couldn't speak English or Italian dipped, because if he was around he would face discrimination (because he's a foreigner) and they would all pin the blame on him for crashing the ship.
Just found your channel and it was fun. Cruises are my perfect vacation. All the food I can eat, no cooking required, you don’t have to do anything more than sit on a lounge chair and watch the waves, and you don’t have to make your bed (I do though because the crew is always very nice and considerate no matter the ship I’m on)
On the Titanic and the lifeboat thing; from my understanding, at the time lifeboats were considered a sort of last resort for ferrying people short distances to other ships or shore. The expectation at the time would be that ships could stay afloat long enough for the lifeboats to make several rounds of dropping people off and picking them back up. Likewise, on the open sea, it was believed that increased traffic and improved signaling methods like the first wireless radios would allow for speedy response to any ship in distress for transferring people off the boats. This is because lifeboats just weren't rated for long distance or long duration ocean travel at the time. They would likely flounder or capsize if the water got rough at all, were too small to hold enough supplies for long term survival, and would leave people totally exposed to the weather of the Atlantic. People didn't prepare for full scale evacuations of ships like the Titanic because all theory up to that point held that unless you were on an actual ship you weren't likely to survive very long. The Titanic was just unfortunate enough that on that one night, no one was there to help, and that it had suffered a blow no ship could possibly survive.
I feel the same. While his actions directly after put him into the worst light, the incident itself was multiple peoples fault. I hope someday the escapee gets captured and gets sentenced without his deal. Because it was also his choice to take this job he had NO qualifications for, that led to this. And even so he managed to get a deal, he wasn't even willing to take this heavily reduced punishment ...
I would explicitly "loot" the "perishables," paintings, wooden objects, canvas suitcases or clothing, rare books, etc. Because _it's going to get ruined anyway!_ 😋 Then I would just ask for a "finder's fee" to give back the stuff I saw people asking about. But really nifty stuff they already wrote off as lost I'd just keep to use for myself. Money and jewellery I probably wouldn't bother looking for knowing it already got grabbed 😅
there is such thing as salvage rights so you can legally loot it. if you earn the right. of course with the ship at the shore am not sure what the modern version of those right under international law.
No clue who you are. This is the first video I saw with you in it. Your cute mannerisms won me over completely. Cost Of concordia is a gift that keeps on giving....so to speak because it's a tragedy but you get the idea.
To be frank, the biggest issue with cruise ships in general is that they cost too much maintain so many of them are literally outdated and well passed their expiration date but the companies find it cheaper and easier to modernize as much as they can, while still using outdated systems, wiring and materials that have seen their prime long gone. inspections are an issue because companies are known to buy off inspectors especially in less regulated and monitored countries or as we see here, the parent company will higher cheap foreign labour without care for qualification or compatible match because it’s far cheaper and saves them money and then when they get caught or their inaction and greed cause tragedy they are able to either weasel out of it, pay a measly fine to remove all liability, and or use their power to stretch and or defy courts for as long as possible hoping their victims either die or run out of money before they are brought to judgment and this is all the fault of the dying and corrupted capitalist system.
I’m not an expert, but with ships it’s about buoyancy. There’s only so much flooding a ship can take before it loses buoyancy and sinks. It’s basic physics. The two-compartment flooding is about that limit with most ships. But it’s extremely rare for a ship to have more that two breaches at once. They’re very well built; they have to be. But there are some things, like icebergs and rocks, that ships can’t really withstand. Actually, the Titanic probably would have been better off if it struck the iceberg in a head on collision, rather than sideswiping it, because of this.
@@camellia_vt his first crash was 2008 with the large scrape pictured, then in 2010 is when he ran the ship into the port, then 2012 was when the Cost Concordia incident happened

Aaah, my third time watching this IH. Look, it's like Alana, but instead of a doggy 🐺 it's the stick she chases! 😄 13:13 basically ships float due to the amount of air (buoyancy) inside. Once it's lopsided, *that's done,* and obviously a bigger problem for heavier ships, _however!_ This really implies one side, many ships which get struck on both ends wind up surviving, because buoyancy remains even (something that saved many torpedoed ships in ww2) as long as the hole is immediately sealed. Though this isn't 1:1, after all, engines must be at the back, the conn(or radar) must be at the front. So you need breaches _of equal weight and volume_ It's much easier for warships to survive because they are carrying assloads of *heavy* ammo (often on wheeled palettes) and large cranes, which can easily be shifted. But cruise ships are either already empty towards the front, or they are storage for luggage and furniture, *_extremely difficult to move in a timely manner!_* So, the most you can get away with on the most well designed cruise ship is only around 4, because the weight is already not even! Iirc Disney is the only one that has one that goes up to 6. Don't forget in the event of a collision, everything is sliding around above deck, too! There was one called I believe Ambience that almost sank itself because it put all the gambling entertainment towards the front, including _incredibly fancy multi ton pool tables!_ Fortunately furniture rollers were available, slid under them, and a hole was cut in the railing to eject them. If you take some thick waterproof paper, origami instructions to make a ship, and some marbles, then stab one end then the other with an exacto knife or sewing needle, rolling the marbles onto then off the holes you can kinda see how an "equal breach" would work. Surprised that they never did something like that in one of your science classes in school!

I'd like to clarify some stuff regarding Titanic as a lifelong enthusiast.
1. Titanic was an ocean liner, not a cruise ship. She had a strict schedule to keep and didn't have the luxury to just slow down for no apparent reason.
2. She was actually designed to stay afloat with 4 compartments flooded over the standard 2.
3. She carried more lifeboats than required by law, but sank before all of them could even be lowered.
4. It's a myth that she wasn't given enough boats to satisfy the demands of first class passengers and her owners. No ships of the era carried that many lifeboats, tramp steamer or luxury liner.
5. The way Titanic struck the iceberg and sank was incredibly bizarre and specific. It's not the kind of accident you could replicate if you tried.
6. Titanic lasted far longer than expected, and far longer than an older ship would have.
7. There wasn't much of a panic on board Titanic until around 1:40 AM when people realised that the ship was actually sinking. For about an hour, even the officers didn't know, and lower ranked crewmen weren't told, either. Luckily for them, Titanic sank on a mostly even keel, so her lifeboats were able to be lowered calmly and safely.
Additional fact: in 1912, lifeboats were supposed to be used as ferries. Never before were they expected to carry a ship's entire compliment of passengers. By 2012, lifeboats were designed to do the opposite, but since Costa Concordia capsized, her lifeboats had to act as ferries.

Yes, there were many ships on the same route going back-and-forth all the time. Therefore, they always thought they would be close to a rescue ship and would only need a few boats to transfer people to the other ship.
To be fair, they were exactly right. There was a smaller ship called the Californian that was so close its crew saw Titanic‘s lights and flares. They even thought they saw the bow lower than the stern. (Titanic sinking) Unfortunately, they’re only radio operator went to sleep shortly before Titanic’s troubles and the captain of the Californian wrongly thought they were sending flares up to communicate with another White Star ship or for an onboard party. They would’ve had time to save most people but made absolutely no effort after seeing the flares to get back on the radio to see if they needed help or travel just a few miles to the Titanic to try to render aid. It’s sickening.
/ Of course, Captain Rostron Of the Carpathia bravely sped toward the Titanic at full speed risking damaging his own ship. He just couldn’t get there fast enough to save more people. The passenger known as The Unsinkable Molly Brown” Organized a committee to raise money and give Rostron a metal for his bravery. There is also a collection among the first class passengers for some of the widows and children of the lower classes.
29:53 I disagree with Chatbro. Anyone desperate enough for money that they need to sell raw metal won’t have the skills or resources to retrieve, much less make a profit from, the bell.
I’ll put aside that scuba gear is expensive and requires maintenance on top of skill to operate. I’ll even put aside that you either need extra equipment to get the bell out solo or other people with similar skills and kit to help you.
That just leaves you with the idea of melting it down for money, which...is patently absurd. Virtually everyone that sells scrap metal that’s then melted down for profit doesn’t do it themselves. They go to scrapyards. What’s more, they do it with metals that scrapyards can at least reasonably deny knowing was stolen. Seeing some addict rock up to your scrapyard with the Costa Concordia’s bell is the mother of all red flags.
If it wasn’t lost in the wreck, then I assume it was stolen by folks who wanted it for the fact that it was the CC’s bell.
I imagine it's probably another Rembrandt situation, where someone just has this big ass bell in storage that they can't sell because it's too well known for anyone to take the risk of buying it.
That or it's just lying at the bottom of the ocean somewhere and nobody's found it yet.

Additional fun fact: Costa's parent company, Costa Cruiselines, owns Cunard Lines, including the single remaining transatlantic ocean liner remaining in service. _RMS Queen Mary 2_ recently celebrated 20 years of service. Fortunately Cunard operates according to their traditional standards. And yes, _QM2_ also does cruises on her off seasons. But she's otherwise very busy crossing a whole ocean like her namesake.
13:24 the reason is that you need enough volume onboard the ship.
If it's filled with water the massive ship will sink. When they say the ship is designed for two breaches, that's how much extra water is needed before the ship starts sinking since the Buoyancy needed to keep it afloat is not enough.
Apparently the Titanic had more life boats than it was required by the standards back then. There were always other ships close enough, so if rescue was necessary the life boats were used to ferry the passengers to other ships in multiple rounds, they weren't intended to keep the people alive on their own.
Only modern life boats have enough room for everyone, as well as a radio, and probably some supplies for a day or two.
Note: given the circumstances, the fact that all lifeboats got out of the ship (via the Davits or being carried by the Ocean once the Final Plunge occurred) carrying passengers is pretty damn miraculous.
@ZKP314 Well, the very last two weren't so lucky. The overturned collapsible B was nearly crushed by the first funnel collapsing, and collapsible A was so swamped with water that many people in it still died of exposure.
There was a couple that made it to collapsible A, but neither one survived. One of them, I forget which, was inside and soaked while the other clung to the gunwale from the outside. Neither of them knew where the other was, and they both perished before the boat was taken in by Carpathia.
True, and if they were going slower and or had hit the iceberg head on they may have stayed afloat, or at least stayed afloat longer for rescue boats to arrive and get people off the ship before it went down, and before a huge amount of people died of hypothermia in the water.
@@ZKP314 This, Lusitania is a perfect example of a decent amount of lifeboats, more than enough for the passengers and crew, but so many of them failed, sometimes flipping and dumping the occupants while being lowered, sometimes coming loose from the davits and plunging into the ocean, some never got free of the davits and got dragged down with the ship.
@@G1NZOU There's no definitive evidence that Titanic would have survived a head-on collision. Yes, other ships had struck icebergs and rocks head-on before and survived, but to my knowledge, none of them were even close to the same size. It's a very heated topic for debate, and not one which I subscribe fealty to. Since it insofar hasn't been proven or disproven, I can see reason why anyone would argue either way.
That said, it's silly to assume any ship's officer would willingly slam a ship into an iceberg head on. It is absolutely 100% not the first choice one should make.
29:23 bruh i would go to that ship even if there was nothing to steal.
Imagine getting to explore a broken, abandoned cruise ship. What an adventure.
The helmsman being a new guy isn't that uncommon, you have to get experience somewhere. However, the captain should have replaced the inexperienced helmsman for a risky maneuver like the sail-by salute. The helmsman can get more experience when they are out in the open seas.
Ships are built to two compartment flooding as a balance between cost, safety, and functionality. The two compartment flooding is the industry standard as a balance. Because the general "worst case" scenario, and the breach is right on the join between two compartments and both flood. A long gouge in the hull like this is an unlikely case, they were more concerned about a collision between two ships than hitting a rock. In a case like this, the idea is to keep the ship floating long enough to evacuate to the lifeboats.
melting down the bell would be pretty dumb. Collectors would pay stupid amounts of money to get ahold of a sunken ship's bell.
The traditional bottle of champagne bouncing off the side of the ship is always a sign of bad luck
Many times apparently on that one Russian warship, don't know what ship it was though
In modern day it's pretty legit since companies have spent literal millions on determining the best bottles and methods for breaking off the side of the ship, so if the bottle bounces it means the company cut so many corners they couldn't even be bothered to read a *free* approved list of bottles to use that Lockheed Martin spent something like $15 million researching.
It used to be simple superstition, but now, it seems, it shows a significant lack in following protocols.
Still blows my mind how no one ever found that big fucking bell. How the fuck you smuggle something like that?

@@camellia_vt OH GOD

The bell was stolen after it sank, it was only 26 feet under water at the time, they suspected multiple people but never had clear evidence. It was deemed unimportant and investigated more important things.
@@Ayuima69 Huh, never thought it about it that way. Thanks for the clarification.
35:16 I'm guessing she meant to say she was dying inside, probably from a mix of shame and/or embarrassment
I may be wrong about this, but I think a ship's bell is perhaps the most valuable item of a shipwreck, this is because for sailors, a Bell is the Ship's voice. Despite now days using Radio or Horns for signals, a Bell is still rang when a ship is about to depart port out of tradition; Some of the more famous wrecks have their bells recover (legally) and are held in museums or private collections, like Titanic's, HMS Hood's, Edmund Fitzgerald's among others - BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT because this bell was stolen on what was a still active investigation scene, anyone caught with it would be going to prison if found out.
So they stole something they can't sell without risking thief and buyer some jail time - I would leave this to the Maritime Lawyers to correct me on this one.
I wonder what happened to it and how they took the bell. But that’s very interesting
This was the biggest "cruise ship" disaster since the Titanic, however there is a famous case of the "MS Estonia", and there are recordings of the mayday and rescue radio traffic on YT (even with subtitles, useful since the radio operators speaking Finnish for almost all of it). Although in stark contrast to the above video, the people were actually professionals trying to save lives and not just their own skins.
The video is called "M/S Estonia Mayday Call With Subtitles, Tribute" here on YT and it's harrowing to listen to. In the end, 852 people died from that accident.
Of course, _Titanic_ was an ocean liner. _Estonia_ was a type of RO/RO ferry where the door and ramp were hidden behind a visor that made up the bow, which while a cool design, was also fatally flawed at speed in a storm. The results were entirely predictable. Other ferry disasters include _MV Sewol_ , and _MV Dona Paz_ 's collision with _MV Vector_ , a cargo ship carrying petrol. Again, predictable results, but a death toll exceeding 9,000 because of how overloaded the ferry was.
There's _Stockholm_ ramming _Andrea Doria_ in the fog, _Storstadt_ also ramming _Empress of Ireland_ in the fog on the St. Lawrence River, _RMS Lusitania_ getting torpedoed during the First World War, and _HMHS Britannic_ hitting a German mine, also in WWI. _Olympic_ got a spot of revenge for her youngest sister, though, ramming a U-boat and forcing him to surface and surrender. It was the one collision she had in her career that _was_ purposeful.
Also biggest peacetime disaster, there were a couple of German ships sunk in WW2 that were evacuating people from the Soviet Union that had absolutely staggering death tolls.
the lieing to the passengers reminds me of the korean school ship disaster. where most of the survivors were the kids that disobeyed the commands given by the lieing crew.
Omg
An interesting side note to that is that was one of the catalysts behind their absolutely wild and totalitarian press rights laws. *No criticism of government employees allowed ever, no matter how factually true or correct!*
The investigation caused so much criticism of Park's government that they rammed through a defamation law that direct criticism "assists destabilization of public order" and basically implies anyone who does so is doing so at the behest of the North Korean government (aka, it's basically a sedition charge)
It carried a mandatory minimum 7 year sentence, which has even been enacted upon foreigners! A Japanese reporter who wrote about it, Tatsuya Kato, was hit with libel and found guilty.
Before the discovery of her cult ties deposed her, this temporarily earned her the nickname "Korea's Clinton" 😅
The purpose of an arrest is to essentially both punish and essentially put the accused in line.
Meaning if you are willing to obey the jury and the law. You are good in their books.
And remember, there wouldn't even have been a collision if they had hired a helmsman who could reliably understand the capitan.
I mean, if he hadn't been closer than the safe distance, there would have been plenty of leeway to make such mistakes.
While the helmsman did mess up, there's no reason a ship like that should be in a situation where every second counts. Especially not since the seas were calm.
To clarify that one super chat was incorrect. It wasn’t malicious, it was because during Titanic’s day there was no regulation regarding the number of Life boats required for a ship that large. Safety features on ships back then were more keen on Preventative action rather than reactionary. The idea was that the Transatlantic route was so busy that if something were to happen, a ship could send out a telegram and nearby ships would respond. The life boats would then ferry passengers from the sinking ship to the rescue ship. It’s understandable when you realize the Life Boats used back then were incredibly dangerous to use In the ocean. Had there been a storm it’s completely possible no one would have survived.
Twitch does not have super chats. But why then was there no one near by? If it was supposed to be busy?
@@camellia_vt There were two other ships nearby when the Titanic sank, the Carpathia and the Californian. The Carpathia tried to help but was too far away to make it in time; the Californian was closer but her captain basically ignored what was happening.
@@camellia_vt I’m not to versed in twitch stuff lol. There was a ship about 15 or so miles out from Titanic called the Californian. However they only had one radio operator and he had gone to bed. Californian’s captain had seen Titanic on the horizon and noticed something was going on, but decided not to investigate it. Keep in mind that a lot of things that you might expect to be common practice on ships were not really regulated at the time, but it’s because of the Titanic that things like a constant radio watch, lifeboats, etc. are now considered a basic and common practice. Keep in mind to that this is essentially in the early years of the steel hulled ships. 50 years before Titanic, sailing ships were in vogue. And back then, if something happened at sea, you were for sure dead. The late Industrial Revolution had really caused the shipping industry to progress at break neck speed and regulations and policy struggled to keep up, even into the Golden Age of the Oceanliners. Martime regulations are almost all Written in Blood.
In fact the knee-jerk reaction to _Titanic_ actually caused a sinking which killed more passengers (though not as many in total) because they put too _many_ lifeboats on it and it capsized. Despite only being in 20 feet of water, because most people on board couldn't swim. Look up SS _Eastland_ for the details.
Just wanted to say, your model is super pretty ^^
Ships are generally engineered very well and precisely. Things happen, though, when the company that's buying said ship decides to cut back on safety measures to, say, make things more navigable for passengers. The whole reason _Titanic_ 's watertight bulkheads didn't go high enough? So the halls wouldn't be a complete maze. The reason they cut back on the number of lifeboats? So First Class would have a clear view of the ocean. They still more than met the British Board of Trade regulations, and lifeboats were more a way to ferry passengers to waiting rescue ships than something you used to stay out of the water for long periods of time. The biggest and best 'lifeboat' was still considered to be the ship itself. Especially with as many safety measures and redundancies as the Olympic-class had. It's just that the breaches went too far for the ship to stay afloat, and the water coming in was too overwhelming.
In basic terms, a ship floats because the water it displaces together with the air inside the hull cause the ship to be subjected to an upward force exceeding that of gravity. This allows the ship to sit on the water without sinking. If a ship is breached, there is still a certain amount of water it can take on before the air forced out of the hull causes that upward pushing force to be less than gravity's, and the boat sinks. In both the cases of _Titanic_ and _Lusitania_ , survivor reports include hearing the sounds of air hissing from nearby vents -- the sound of air being forced out of the hull by the onrushing water. And there are a lot of cavernous, empty spaces that water can fill as a result of hull breaches, like ventilation shafts and stairways. In fact, _Titanic_ 's crew checked the water's progress numerous times by checking stairwells. Ships can get rated by how many compartments adjacent to each other that can be filled with water without having the ship sink, assuming those compartments are fully sealed, unlike those on _Titanic_ . She was still safety rated for four compartments flooded, accounting for port and starboard sides. But the iceberg opened up a fifth compartment, just barely, and also busted some rivets, causing gaps in the ship's skin.
Speaking of a ship's skin, a double-bottom has been standard for a really long time. Double-layered hulls all the way around? Not so much. In the design of the Olympic-class, the team under Thomas Andrews could not conceive of a situation where the ship's hull would take that much of a breach. Plus, the ship had pumps, and the doors closed automatically once the water level got high enough. The Lusitania-class, on the other hand, were commissioned to be easily converted into auxiliary warships, so they had more complete double hulls. Unfortunately this didn't save _Lucy_ herself. But after _Titanic_ sank, one of the refits to _Olympic_ was to install a full second skin so she couldn't be sunk like her middle sister. And her younger sister _Britannic_ was actually made larger to accommodate the second skin without losing any of the space. Unfortunately the force of the explosion from the mine she struck warped some of the bulkhead frames, preventing the watertight doors from closing, and nurses had left portholes open to air rooms out, giving water even more ways to get inside. Fortunately the crew was well-drilled, and there was no one else aboard. The evacuation went almost perfectly: the only casualties were from crew who launched two lifeboats early, without orders, and got sucked into the propellers as the captain tried to see if he could beech the ship. He couldn't. Violet Jesupp, who had been aboard _Olympic_ when she crashed with _HMS Hawke_ , and aboard _Titanic_ , survived the last sister's sinking by being very lucky the propellers didn't kill her, and then she was rescued later by a lifeboat. Lucky or unlocky? _Olympic_ , the oldest and last sisters, was scrapped in 1935 beside her primary competitor, _Mauretania_ .
Some ships did have flaws built into them due to their designs. A big one was a center of gravity being too high up, creating a list or roll. The former was true of _SS Imperator_ , a German liner that earned the nickname 'Limperator' because not one photo has him sitting straight. The latter was true of _RMS Queen Mary_ , which despite additional stabilizing fins, became known as 'Rolling Mary' for her constant, slow roll from side to side. It was so bad at once point, sailors aboard her escort found themselves looking directly down her funnels. But she never capsized.
Also, thinner steel is used on cruise ships than on ocean liners. They just don't have to weather storms like liners do.
I congratulate you on being the only Vtuber I've seen to immediately clock that the reason the captain changed into his suit was to avoid being identified. Most people seem confused by this detail, but you caught on immediately.
I have nice lumpy brain, XD
I dunno where I read it, but it basically said that it's actually good that the Helmsman who couldn't speak English or Italian dipped, because if he was around he would face discrimination (because he's a foreigner) and they would all pin the blame on him for crashing the ship.
That’s so true. Cause tbh the captain hired him. The Captain should of made sure that he could communicate well
@camellia_vt I think the company might have hired him. Why would the captain hire someone who cannot understand orders?
@@leurunner4764 he said the reason…He got hired for rock bottom. They probably paid him a fraction of what that position should be paid.

Just found your channel and it was fun. Cruises are my perfect vacation. All the food I can eat, no cooking required, you don’t have to do anything more than sit on a lounge chair and watch the waves, and you don’t have to make your bed (I do though because the crew is always very nice and considerate no matter the ship I’m on)
Ship Sinkings and capsizes are a rabbit hole-a good one.
Titanic’s literally the tip of the Iceberg.
On the Titanic and the lifeboat thing; from my understanding, at the time lifeboats were considered a sort of last resort for ferrying people short distances to other ships or shore. The expectation at the time would be that ships could stay afloat long enough for the lifeboats to make several rounds of dropping people off and picking them back up. Likewise, on the open sea, it was believed that increased traffic and improved signaling methods like the first wireless radios would allow for speedy response to any ship in distress for transferring people off the boats. This is because lifeboats just weren't rated for long distance or long duration ocean travel at the time. They would likely flounder or capsize if the water got rough at all, were too small to hold enough supplies for long term survival, and would leave people totally exposed to the weather of the Atlantic.
People didn't prepare for full scale evacuations of ships like the Titanic because all theory up to that point held that unless you were on an actual ship you weren't likely to survive very long. The Titanic was just unfortunate enough that on that one night, no one was there to help, and that it had suffered a blow no ship could possibly survive.
I feel the same. While his actions directly after put him into the worst light, the incident itself was multiple peoples fault. I hope someday the escapee gets captured and gets sentenced without his deal. Because it was also his choice to take this job he had NO qualifications for, that led to this. And even so he managed to get a deal, he wasn't even willing to take this heavily reduced punishment ...
If I had the ability to loot the boat I wouldn't do it because if I did I wouldn't be able to live with myself for the rest of my life
That’s valid. Most of the boat stuff is from the ultra rich. But not everyone is comfortable with eating the rich
It’s all a hypothetical.
I would explicitly "loot" the "perishables," paintings, wooden objects, canvas suitcases or clothing, rare books, etc. Because _it's going to get ruined anyway!_ 😋
Then I would just ask for a "finder's fee" to give back the stuff I saw people asking about. But really nifty stuff they already wrote off as lost I'd just keep to use for myself.
Money and jewellery I probably wouldn't bother looking for knowing it already got grabbed 😅
That place is ultra cursed
there is such thing as salvage rights so you can legally loot it. if you earn the right. of course with the ship at the shore am not sure what the modern version of those right under international law.

I was on the edge of my seat. Such an interesting story and great video. Also welcome in.
To be frank, the biggest issue with cruise ships in general is that they cost too much maintain so many of them are literally outdated and well passed their expiration date
but the companies find it cheaper and easier to modernize as much as they can, while still using outdated systems, wiring and materials that have seen their prime long gone.
inspections are an issue because companies are known to buy off inspectors especially in less regulated and monitored countries
or as we see here, the parent company will higher cheap foreign labour without care for qualification or compatible match
because it’s far cheaper and saves them money
and then when they get caught or their inaction and greed cause tragedy
they are able to either weasel out of it, pay a measly fine to remove all liability, and or use their power to stretch and or defy courts for as long as possible
hoping their victims either die or run out of money before they are brought to judgment
and this is all the fault of the dying and corrupted capitalist system.
I’m not an expert, but with ships it’s about buoyancy. There’s only so much flooding a ship can take before it loses buoyancy and sinks. It’s basic physics. The two-compartment flooding is about that limit with most ships. But it’s extremely rare for a ship to have more that two breaches at once. They’re very well built; they have to be. But there are some things, like icebergs and rocks, that ships can’t really withstand. Actually, the Titanic probably would have been better off if it struck the iceberg in a head on collision, rather than sideswiping it, because of this.
Were going to see that bell on some antique show.
I would like to point out a pattern that no one else mentions. Schettino crashed a ship every 2 years, so he was due to crash again like he did.
Wait really?!
@@camellia_vt his first crash was 2008 with the large scrape pictured, then in 2010 is when he ran the ship into the port, then 2012 was when the Cost Concordia incident happened

You should watch man in a cave by him as well it an interesting and incredible video
Aaah, my third time watching this IH. Look, it's like Alana, but instead of a doggy 🐺 it's the stick she chases! 😄
13:13 basically ships float due to the amount of air (buoyancy) inside. Once it's lopsided, *that's done,* and obviously a bigger problem for heavier ships, _however!_ This really implies one side, many ships which get struck on both ends wind up surviving, because buoyancy remains even (something that saved many torpedoed ships in ww2) as long as the hole is immediately sealed.
Though this isn't 1:1, after all, engines must be at the back, the conn(or radar) must be at the front. So you need breaches _of equal weight and volume_
It's much easier for warships to survive because they are carrying assloads of *heavy* ammo (often on wheeled palettes) and large cranes, which can easily be shifted. But cruise ships are either already empty towards the front, or they are storage for luggage and furniture, *_extremely difficult to move in a timely manner!_*
So, the most you can get away with on the most well designed cruise ship is only around 4, because the weight is already not even! Iirc Disney is the only one that has one that goes up to 6.
Don't forget in the event of a collision, everything is sliding around above deck, too! There was one called I believe Ambience that almost sank itself because it put all the gambling entertainment towards the front, including _incredibly fancy multi ton pool tables!_ Fortunately furniture rollers were available, slid under them, and a hole was cut in the railing to eject them.
If you take some thick waterproof paper, origami instructions to make a ship, and some marbles, then stab one end then the other with an exacto knife or sewing needle, rolling the marbles onto then off the holes you can kinda see how an "equal breach" would work. Surprised that they never did something like that in one of your science classes in school!
yes this stick knows that water causes sinking.

i love how stupid you people are thinking that you cant make money if you hate capitalism, ironically streaming and reactions are the most socialist thing you could do, since you own the means of production, literally providing the labor and earning the profits form it LOL which is literally what socialism is LOL
BTW capitalism by nature is the laziest economic system, since those who benefit from it the most, do the least work LOL
