Shipping Disasters That Were Caught on Film
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 мар 2024
- Most famous shipping disasters have happened out of sight - under cover of darkness, like that of Titanic, or in a raging storm. The simple truth is that for hundreds of years humans have taken to the oceans in ships - but the camera is only a relatively recent development. Before the camera it was up to painters and artists to recreate how disasters at sea might have looked, but nowadays people can play witness to real events without having to actually be there and the result is chilling. From the results of dramatic collisions, the aftermath of deadly storms or the dramatic rescues of trapped crews. Features the SS Metapan and Iowan, SS Toya Maru, SS Pine Ridge and SS Morro Castle.

Like if IOU one correct Iowan pronunciation.
As an Iowan I cringed every time 😂
@@shuckledeath281 I'm not a native English speaker. How would you pronounce it? Would you stress the "i" rather than the "o"?
@@shuckledeath281 same here! XD
"Eye-oh-wen", and you kind of squish the syllables together, stressing the "i" briefly.
@@WeddingVegetables Iowan is "Eye-oh-wen" where you kind of squish the syllables together, stressing the "i" briefly.
I say this in the most complimentary way possible. I fell asleep five minutes in...not because your content is boring, but because you have a very soothing voice. It was an epic 20 minute nap while I'm alone in my office during a break from tax returns. I watched it again refreshed. Thank you!!!!
I have a whole Playlist called "Mike Brady sleep" 😂 I always watch the videos first but same, I find his voice soothing as all
I do the same thing with some steve 1989 mre guy. idk what he does, but his videos knock me out
This or forgotten weapons or rex areoplanes
Does anyone else get a lil warm feeling in their heart whenever Mike says he's our friend?
that's probably just you
@biosparkles yea me too, he always puts a smile on my face :)
He has a very positive spirit imo.
No. Manipulative, parasocial stuff like that is off-putting.
I do
Mike, you are easily one of the premier presenters here. Your research is impeccable and obviously requires a great deal of time and dedication, and from that I believe I speak for many here when I say thank you so much.
More than that, your actual presentations are smooth and eminently understandable, but more than that, you always reinforce your "Your friend, Mike Brady" persona, which is the icing on the cake. As always, well done, sir !
😆
Here here!!
Well said indeed
@@milnespetchristo1882 with respect, it's "hear, hear" as in "I'm listening closely and expressing agreement"
Well said wingman . Couldn't agree more .
My grandparents want to see the Morro Castle on the beach. My grandmother said you could still smell burning, and the site made her sad and sick when she heard lives were lost.
Years ago, a house on my regular walking route burned down (the family was successfully evacuated). Several days later, I still smelled the burning, so things do smolder for some time after the blaze has been put out, assuming it has been. It's likely the fire on _Morro Castle_ burned all the available fuel before fizzling out on its own.
Thanks to the memory of this tragedy, as well as the loss of the _Normandie_ , William Francis Gibbs went a little nuts in overengineering the _SS United States_ as the fastest, most fire-safe ocean liner ever built. He accepted only two pieces of wood aboard: the chef's cutting board and the grand piano -- the latter only after it had been soaked in gasoline and lit to prove it would not burn. Unfortunately, the material they used for fire safety in all the walls was asbestos. Once it was found out just how dangerous that was, _SS Unites States_ was pulled from service to be gutted, and was never restored. She now faces the possibility of being evicted from Philadelphia due to raised rental fees specifically during the lockdown. While she is currently in the care of a conservatory organization, like the one that was responsible for _RMS Queen Mary_ , this one cannot afford much at all.
@BNuts Another reason the United States was built the way that she was for quick conversion to a troop ship in time of war. She had to have her fittings removed for a quick turnaround, so they were built in a way that they could easily be removed to have her ready for. conversion in a matter of days. It's interesting that you mention the Normandie. My great grandfather was on her the day she caught fire. Even though she was a kenneth, the time my grandmother told me she remembers her mother getting the call and her becoming nearly hysterical as they were living in Jersey at the time and knowing that something tragic had happened and them having to find a way to New York. She told me how horrible she felt when they finally did, make it standing on that highway bidge, looking at the overturned hulk. And not knowing for several hours if her father was alive or dead .
Another great time with our friend Mike Brady
Our friend Mike Brady you mean
Yeah sorry
Don't forget, from Oceanliner Designs.
@@MrShipBuff I mean who could forget that
The rescue of the survivors of the Pendleton is considered the greatest small boat rescue in the history of the Coast Guard. Those survivors were plucked from a frigid grave by some really brave young men. Mike, I wish you would do an episode on it!
I think this.
Was the subject of a movie starring chris pine excellent film.
The movie was called, The finest hours. It was indeed about the pendleton. Incredibly wonderful film.
And anyone can visit the US Coast Guard boat that rescued those men, #CG36500, in the small town of Orleans, Massachusetts.
The book of the same name, is definitely worth the read.
Above Mike: You have a different accent so i am not mad But
Hey! Its our friend Mike Brady from Ocean Liner Designs!
Also love the intro!
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING! Love this channel. And yes, Mike Brady is my friend.
Not your Friend, not mine, but our Friend
Mike Brady is my friend but not a fan of the intro :(
I have a few friends in various circles. I am happy Mike Brady is my friend.
@@NCR-Veteran-Ranger-O-Casey EVEN BETTER! YES!
I'm a biker and been riding a Harley since I was 19 but in 83ish I started going to sea on a Canadian Ocean Research Vessel Endeavor and that started me on a whole new lifestyle that it gave me the best of both worlds. I really enjoy your stories Mike and they are well appreciated. Cheers
BRUB BRUB BRUB!!!
Catching something on film is harder and harder the further you go into the past. People who filmed these disasters in the past need some more recognizement for their efforts in documentations, and i hope they get said recognizement/attention
*recognition
Recognitionallization
No, I'm sorry, but whichever way you put it, homo erectus was rubbish with a camera
Someone champions for their recognaliatilism.
And no I dont want people to get the wrong idea and film things like these instead of helping, thus, don't create a precedent :)
Fewer films made in the first place, and steady loss from deterioration or destruction. (Especially films from the films shot on the old-time celluloid films, which were extremely prone to both decomposition and combustion, sometimes spontaneous.)
As Popeye would say, recognitimication to 'em. 😁
I honestly had no idea I would find ship designing and disasters this fascinating until I stumbled upon your channel so thank you for teaching me something new about myself. I thoroughly enjoy your videos and like so many have mentioned I love your intro it makes me feel welcome to come and learn. Cheers mate!
Same feeling here! These videos are absolute class
Toya Maru is so hard to watch, there's nothing more terrifying to me than a fully capsized ship, and seeing one still kinda floating on video is just a hundred times worse.
I love it when our friend Mike Brady, from Ocean liner Designs, posts a new video
Mike, you are pure class and intellect. You are one of the finest narrators I've ever heard on RUclips. Thanks for all you do and keep up the great work!
Good job!
Morro Castle was one of my 3 favorite shipwrecks, as a young person reading about such things. Over time, in my view, it seems clear that Wireless operator Rogers *was* indeed the bad guy. I believe he not only poisoned the Captain, but started the fire in the writing room. If one reads his history, he was a twisted, evil character, notably involved in other crimes besides the Morro Castle fire.
Acting Capt. Warms was also negligent for heading the ship into the wind, while she was burning, thereby fanning the flames even more. The whole thing is a head-shaking disaster that never should have happened, but the hiring of Rogers, back in the day when there were no 'background checks' is at the root of it all.
I’d love to see a more detailed video of the Morro Castle. Great video❤
Check out the book "When the Dancing Stopped" by Brian Hicks.
there's a few of them out there, look into them.
Big Old Boats has a great video on Morro Castle.
@@wildsmileyThank you for that. Just got down watching it. Excellent watch
@@jrocco36Raven’s Eye has another one if you’re interested.
There is our friend to satisfy our naval curiosity. Ty Mike!! As far back as 1914 😮
Breathtaking footage, i couldn't imagine being on a sinking ship. But I've always been fascinated watching them sink.
Imagine there's a footage of Titanic sinking
@@-Alexander2001MB The Lusitania sinking caused over 9,000 deaths. More than 7, 000 more than the Titanic.
Ah.... Mike Brady, my good friend... excellent video. This one hit home... I was born and raised on Staten Island, and had not heard of that wreck in the bay. It was really funny seeing you talk about my "neighborhood" as it were. Many of my pictures were taken in the Narrows, from Fort Wadsworth, and sometimes from South Beach, facing the Lower New York Bay. As for the Morro Castle disaster... as kids we hung out in Asbury Park and spent hours on that Boardwalk. My mom was about 8 when the Morro Castle burned that labor day weekend. My grandfather took her and her two older brothers to see the ship washed up on the beach.. That blackened image of the ship was a haunting memory, and It took me lots of convincing to get her on her first cruise in 1983 aboard the Scandinavia..Thanks for putting this together.. The Toya Maru story was just heartbreaking.. He may have thought he was in the clear and it may have only been the eye of the storm passing over the area...;-(
I opened RUclips and saw this was "one minute ago" I feel so blessed today 🙏
Came here for a Titanic video 3 year's ago and have been hooked ever since and have learned so much from my friend Mike Brady.
Could you do a video and explain things such as the difference between nautical miles vs miles and shaft horsepower vs say horsepower you'd find on a car, registered tonnage etc?
Thank you from Colorado, the land lovers state 😂
How much we all appreciate our friend Mike Brady and another new documentary.
Yay! Another video from Mike Brady of Oceanliner Designs!!
Dear friend Mike Brady from Ocean Liner designs: Will we ever get to see an ocean liner designed by you? I bet it could be brought to life digitally!
This was a true golden nugget of a video, well done to our friend Mike Brady☺👍
You never cease to amaze me, Mike! The Morro Castle videos and pics are haunting for sure…
That warm, calming voice of our friend Mike Brady 😊 added one of your videos to my daily routine now ❤
I've been binging your content on and off and I can't get enough. Your storytelling and general style of video just has me hooked all the way through (and that's rare for a dingus like me with ADHD haha)
And me
Same here lol
I genuinely feel like I’m Mike Brady’s friend and it’s awesome!
Mike, here is a heads-up for a Christmas themed video in December. One on the holidays at sea, how they were celebrated.
Another interesting one would be about the traditional celebrations or commemorations for certain events, such as crossing the Equator or rounding Cape Horn.
10:35 as a train enthusiast I was literally going to comment how the sinking of the ferry foretold the need for the seikan tunnel; good on you for beating me to it!
Awesome video Mike
As always, exemplary video and detail of events. We definitely would want to see a more indepth account on the Morro Castle. Thank you for being such a great steward of maratime history.
Recently found this channel and I can’t get enough. Another great video as always!
Fantastic narration, i am so happy and lucky to have found your brilliant, in-depth true storytelling channel, one of the best I've come across.
Oh, yes, do make a video on the Moro Castle. Weirdness and mystery all around with that one
Excellent video with absolutely amazing footage! I've run out of superlatives describing your work. There is simply none better! Can't wait until you tackle a full video about the Morro Castle. Everything I have read points to Rogers being a very dangerous sociopath, but I realize what I have read is miniscule compared to the information that must be out there.
Stellar video as always Mike!
Love your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for this and all the Maritime learning videos,, they are both entertaining and informative.
Still my favorite YT channel since discovering last year. Phenomenal work!
Superb work again sir ... Fascinating 😊
Another great video. You never disappoint
Perfect intro, perfect vid, amazing content (as always)....As usual, its the best!
Wow these stories are wild. Also it’s cool to see ones I haven’t seen repeated across a bunch of other channels! Idk how you do it! Thank you for the awesome vids
Great documentary. Seriously better than many on tv. Keep up the good work.
Great presentaation Mike!
Just to add a bit to the Morro Castle story, so many people came to see the beached ship Asbury Park officials considered making it a permanent tourist attraction. However the wreckage stank to high heaven and made that impossible so Morro Castle was towed off and scrapped.
As always another quality video.👍
Thank you Mike🍸😎👏
Your detailed knowledge, explanation and delivery, even the way you speak is exemplary. Keep it up my friend Mike Brady 👏
Mike, Thanks again for all of your content. 😊
Always look forward to your uploads. Also really like the intro you've been including lately.
Fantastic episode, Mike!
Hi Mike, my friend from Oceanliner Designs. You should cover the Pendleton disaster in a dedicated video. It's a very interesting study. Great video as always!
Love your channel! So fascinating and I have no ties to shipping or even the ocean. Keep up the wonderful work Mike Brady. Bon voyage
Great job, Mike!
Nice Mike!!! Great video
Oh yes, we finally get something on the Morro Castle. Thank you for this! As always, your material here is excellent and captivating. Good job!
Another great video! I would love a more detailed look into the Morro Castle as it's definitely piqued my interest.
Ok I’m sorry but the pine crest serving another 20 years after being Frankensteined is such a middle finger to Mother Nature
I have to say I wish I could forget information some times just so I could rewatch and learn again with these great videos. Always a pleasure Mr. Brady!
Thank you again for a great video! ❤ Seattle
nice video mike!
ANY day that you upload a video becomes a good day!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you for yet another incredible video
I had a relative that was one of the people who sadly passed on the Morro Castle.
A very informative and interesting video Mike. Thoroughly enjoying your channel.
Amazing Video, as always :)
My compliments on another well researched,well presented and very informative video. Thank you Mike for your hard work and dedication.
Great research and journalism, as usual Mike :)
Another really interesting and informative history lesson from friend Mike!
Great video, thank you!
Concise and informative. Thanks for the hours you put in to make these lovely videos!
Great video man!!!
Man your documentaries are SOO GOOD
As you are probably aware, the recent collision of the container ship Dali with a support of the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore was caught on camera. The film covers the entire sequence from the ship’s first loss of power through the collapse of the bridge.
Another fascinating video. 👍👍👍
Another great video, thank you. I would love to see a video on the SS Yongala. I learnt about her at school in the 80's but now she is largely forgotten.
Great job Mike
I would love to see a dedicated video on the Morro Castle from you Mike! I’m so interested in a more thorough explanation of what all happened that led up to the horrific fire
I enjoy this channel very,very much!!! I like his style of presenting the information and his speech!
Thanks Mike. Fair winds, mate.
Spoiling us rotten Mike and team! Knocking them out of the park lately, much appreciated! ❤
As always: Great!
Once again, this is easily the best channel on RUclips. You are a top presenter Mike.
There's a great movie that depicts the sinking and rescue of the SS Pendleton, showing both sides of the US Coast Guards heroic acts and and how the men who were stuck in the stern did everything in their power to keep the back of the ship from sinking. It is called the Finest Hours (2016) if it interests anyone.
Besides that lovely videos as always Mike, always happy to see your content!
Great presentation.
Wow thank you love learning history through u
Amazing video! 👍
Wow fascinating, excellent video brother
The Maura Castle reminds me of the Scandinavian Star fire accident. Great video!
Thank you for what you do
Great job mike
This is very interesting to see the footage from these incidents from so long ago and hearing about what happened in each of them👍
For awhile, "Morro Castle" remained on the beach and the city sought to keep her as an attraction. It didn't take long for cooler minds to get her removed and scrapped, as rotten food and degrading debris began to throw a pawl of odors over the vacation spot. I have a snapshot taken by my grandfather, who loaded up the touring car and took his whole family over the Jersey to see the burned ship.
My friend Mike Brady, always with interesting content. 😁
Just noticed the Morse code in the intro, very neat detail!
Like the new titles, good work!
Hi ! Literally just caught your upload, for the first time. Can't wait to watch the video !
One of my favorite videos.
It's our friend, Mike Brady!
Man i really love your videos. I'd love to see you do a video on the halifax explosion of 1916. Ive always been fascinated with that disaster, especially as it was the biggest manmade explosion in all of world history up until the hiroshima bombings, had actually been part of the inspiration for said bombings, had lead to a century long friendship between halifax and boston, and had a snowstorm contribute to the loss of life only a few days later
