  • Follow along as we check out the devastating story of the Halifax Explosion of 1917, one of the deadliest man-made disasters in Canadian history. When the SS Mont-Blanc, a ship carrying explosives collided with another vessel in the harbor, a massive explosion ensued, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. In this video, we'll examine the events leading up to the tragedy, as well as stories of survival from those who lived to tell about it.

    This was very well done! I live in Halifax and everyone here with family from that time has stories we share. My own grandparents lived 60 miles from Halifax, when the mont blanc blew, every window in their house shattered. You did make a couple of mistakes. The tsunami was estimated at 75ft high and you left out the blizzard that dumped 4ft of snow the next day.,

      Thank you @WaiferThyme! That is pretty amazing about your grandparents house! I am guessing a lot of windows needed to be replaced after this happened.

    You left out the huge snowstorm that followed, impeding outside assistance.

    I would not have been standing around watching the ship burn. I'd be get out of there as quickly as possible.

    I found the sound at 9:35 to 9:43 to be the metal scraping noise from the game trilogy of Little Big Planet!

    9:35 repeated on 9:43. This video uses that metal wronk sound from Little Big Planet, guys. It used it from LBP. It's not expecting.

    Oh I just saw that it's live! my Internet want down for a few days.
    This is one of the most interesting maritime disasters in my opinio, espacially the story of Vincent Coleman

      Guys or somebody. 9:35 9:43 That wronking sound is from the trilogy of LBP! And one of my favorite dramatic interactive songs is called The Cosmos. It's a very dramatic song that is from LBP2.

    Hey, Never Stop Learning, did you know that sound from 9:35 to 9:43 is the metal wronking sound coming from the trilogy of LBP?

    • @neverstoplearning123
      @neverstoplearning123  Год назад

      It could be! All sound effects are provided by Epidemic Sound so I'm not sure where Little Big Planet gets their audio.

    Wow...... if I may add, I have heared the story in general a few times, but I have not heard that Captain Haakon From was decapitated. Do you have an article that talks about it? I am very interested in that and want to read it as well.
