    National Geographic-please do more on Great Lakes wrecks! I’ve recently started reading books about the storms, the crews, the ships, planes, etc., but video like this is much appreciated. (You could also slightly ratchet down the dramatic tone, but hey, that’s up to you…)

    'Back then people didn't know how to swim' ... um yeah they did well some did at least, problem was most clothes were made of layers heavy wool, tweed and hard leather shoes. Even if they knew how to swim they would still be weighted down. It just sounded like she was implying swimming was a modern invention. Also throw in the fact its freezing cold in the water that takes the breath out of you making it even harder to swim. I fell into a glacier fed lake as a kid and I knew how to swim well but even I sank for a bit from light modern clothes and the cold.

    My open opinion is they must of went into a bad storm if huge waves hit the boat steam was the boat power if the bottom deck has doors to seals if there's a flood what about the chimney think about it if water an alot comes down the chimney wouldn't pressure from water coming down the chimney would have enough steam pressure to blow a hole into the side of the ship I may not be correct it's just my thought about what happened I give my condolence to the family of those people who was lost wow that had to be a scary situation 😢

    This show is very good. I like it. The Commentator's voice is perfect for it.
    However, with the exception of the constant stopping in the middle of his sentences.
    It works for suspense.
    But not, for this type of show ( Commentaries).
