As horrific as this is, I just want to say hats off to this photographer. It's tragically beautiful, the composition of these shots. I hope to be as good as you someday.
All the damage, loss of life, financial loss... just because Schettino had to "show off" with a horn salute cruising too close to the coastline & being a playboy. Irresponsible beyond words.
Lynne Ann Turney Zalenski No he's a *coward* that should be put on death row. And when they go to execute him his death should be a slow and painful death like those of the 32 people that he was responsible for as well as the death of that diver.
I thought he was going off route to cut corners so that he could slow the ship down and eat his dinner in peace. I'm almost certain that was said in court but only through comments have I seen that he wanted to wave to a woman on the island.
schettino is stupid enough to say that he is not responsible for the deaths of the 32 people because it's not the shipwreck that killed them, it's the drowning, it's like saying a gunman should not be accused of the killings of it's victims because it's not the bullets that killed them, the bleeding did
No he was having dinner and he got a phone call on what directions to make next and he miss said the coordinates or said the un clearly causing one on the vice captains to turn the boat in the wrong direction to and unmarked rock patch

The difference between the sections that were underwater and the parts that weren't is very striking. The ship is so huge, there are some photos where it's hard to imagine that is part of a ship.
It's sad to consider the amount of $$ squandered on a "pure pleasure" device for the rich when the money could have done SO much more for people who are more concerned with life and death and the necessities of life, no?
ROOKTABULA: Oh fuck off with your anti-wealth bullshit. Considering that in most countries the wealthy pay more taxes in one year than the poor do in multiple lifetimes, I think they deserve a vacation every now and again. Especially since it's the poor that are such a drain on the economy versus the wealthy funding governments. You think the poor paid the most for the roads they use, the schools they destroy, the hospitals they abuse? No. They are doing it on someone else's dime, mainly the wealthy and middle class. I don't expect anyone to forfeit things they enjoy just because "the poor".

Captain goes down with the ship, not one of the first mother******* off. And his excuse was he slipped an fell into a lifeboat??? What a liar and a coward. Chicken Of The Sea.

We’re you able to find out whatever became of the captain of this ship? The recording of the Italian Coast Guard giving him Hell and telling him to get back to the ship was riveting! Thank you for this information.
We will hardly get an opportunity like this ever again. The ability to get crystal clear footage of a sunken ship this big and luxurious while it is beyond unique. Good photos man

@@bochapman1058 I suspect he'll change his name and live in obscurity for the rest of his life. That is until some reporter and camera crew tracks him down and he has to flee once more....
@Rob despicable. A worthless excuse of a man. I speak Italian and I heard the radio communication between the cost guard commander Gregorio Di Falco and Captain Schettino. He ordered him to get back on the ship immediately and he did so using very strong language. I mean, he ripped Schettino another asshole, including calling him a spineless coward and get the fuck back on board. He did not get back on the ship and was one of the first to arrive on land. A Giglio officer offered to get a dinghy to get back on board but he declined. He is currently serving a 16 year prison sentence.
E.PLUMBUS UNUM...and there is a bitch available to have sex with him... You could be even a playboy, but if no one girl is available for you, you can't be a playboy. The captain is not the only guilty.
Several people who knew Captain Schettino insist that he was at work in bed when the accident happened. Schettino was sentenced to 16 years, but is still free.
@@_byzzer3228 because if you searched for any article relating to a "family trapped in costa concordia elevator", you will find fuck all.

When man-made architecture, so vast and grand, millions of millions of dollars, goes to the ocean floor, the sight of the far aftermath is eerily beautiful. A depiction of how nature and man cannot always coexist.
Not often you get to see the inside of a sunken cruise ship without all the water, and then the larger rooms with the divide between what was submerged are also quite stellar. Unfortunate that people lost their lives and possessions to bring such a sight
Very haunting images... always sad seeing Cruise Ships and Ocean Liners scrapped because they were once a place of such enjoyments. Rest in Piece Costa Concordia.
I am blown away by the fact that the ship was ruined after the press release showed off its grandeur. All of the marble, silk sheets, piano, stage light, luxurious lighting and carpet were destroyed in minutes looking like it had been in the water for years. All the dirt, sediment and debris looks so awful. And then there is the fact that people who were once alive and happy, had their lives taken in just minutes. There are people who will never heal from this tragedy.
@Pilip Mishev I noticed that however may have been placed there by a workman doing the salvage work after the ship was uprighted and towed back to port. ...Now where did I put my brew?
If they could afford a cruise like that, they can afford to replace whatever stuff they lost, besides, they would have recieved substantial compensation for that event from the cruise company It wasn’t like the Titanic, where people were relocating to another country and hence took all their most prized possessions with them...

The titanic has been sitting in freezing waters for 100 years. Cold preserves things. Are you really that ignorant? They say due to extreme cold, canned goods not affected by pressures and still sealed would be frozen and still edible to a degree.

It's astonishing what fixtures and furniture are still in place given the entire vessel was on its side. Would never have guessed this would be considering all the footage that exists of furniture tumbling across ships in storms. It's also astonishing that the wide open spaces such as the theatres remained intact and structurally sound with the ship in that position. I'd expect some sort of structural failure...
@UC9OEUvReb78puFjyhtiRw1Q is this about hitler Are you trying to compare the atrocities that he did to one coward that should’ve stayed on the ship shut up This isn’t about hitler
This picture seems to be staged. Someone placed the bottles on the counter and the cup on the table to make it look more interesting. Kind of like a lost place where people left in a hurry in the middle of a party.
Yup, see those cash register LCD screens on the floor, through rusted so water level's been up. So no way a coffee cup / bottles would survive upright on the tables. And the ceiling/speakers too, so this part has been submerged fully.
Wow, this is simply astonishing. This beautifully defines the power of photography and its ability to record before time inevitably erases. Thank you for sharing, pure inspiration!
I believe the shots are from an official person connected with the salvage for the purpose of documentation etc. Some shot were purposely staged, such as the wine bottles on the bar and a few other shots. I believe the scrapping of the ship is well under way, if not almost done.
They had to be from an official or an insurer. Costa was very specific about limiting the public's viewing of the wreck. Nobody other than workers were allowed on board, and everything was to be destroyed.
Jonathan, you are an artist. You brought so much emotion to everyone with your pictures. It brings tears to my eyes seeing such a beautiful vessel reduced to this. I can only imagine how the hundreds of crew would feel that made this magnificent ship their home for months at a time seeing these pictures. But with this tragic accident brought great change to the cruise industry in how all cruise ships were to be captained to stop this ever happening again.
I can't even imagine all of the valuable and priceless possessions all of these travelers lost: photos, clothing, luggage etc. They had to leave it behind and save their lives.
This looks eerily similar to cruise ships I’ve been on. I know it’s part of the carnival cruise line but it’s kinda weird seeing somewhere similar to where I’ve walked and slept that’s been underwater for that long.
It must have really stunk in there. I worked at Todd Shipyards in Galveston during my first two years of college back in 1968 when we were converting old WW2 tankers and Lykes Lines ships to the first container ships. I still remember the stench of those old vessels.
Things like these are why I love shooting photography. I'm a bit jealous. 😁 I haven't been to many abandoned sites, much less a place of this magnitude.
The Costa Concordia is/was such a beautiful vessel. I truly feel sorry for all of the passengers that had to go through this. It must have been a frightening experience.... I've personally seen this beautiful ship on the inside and remember thinking it looked a bit garish or flashy. (typically Italian if you will) But seeing it now, like this. After what has happened... To all who had to endure the final moments on the cc. I hope you are doing well now.
Modern day titanic my ass , one was an amazing sequence of events that leads to hitting an ice berg, the other was a captain who drank too much and left the people to fend for themselves and die !!!
BRIAN MOONEY in a way it is a modern day titanic, due to the arrogance and negligence of those running the ship destruction became of the magnificent ships. The workers of titanic were busy sending messages to shore for passengers and ignored another ships (known as The California) distress call saying there was an iceberg in the path, they cutoff communication with The California and less than 1 hour later they had collided with the iceberg, as well as this the captain decided to get sloppy drunk, ignore safety protocols and leave innocent people to die because he was being careless. Sounds pretty similar to me.
With the Titanic, Flair's were sent up but the passing ship thought it was for celebration and not all the crew were sending telegrams. Also, considering the navigational abilities of the times, human error in the form of watchman not seeing it till almost upon the iceberg compared to electronic devices being able to detect water depth and submerged items being over ridden might make this similar but I don't believe the Titanic's captain intent was anywhere near what this guy's was.
@@makaylawishon723 titanic's captain never got drunk. And he didnt ignore any safety protocol either, because they were created specifically because titanic sank...
@@makaylawishon723 yeah, Titanic was not mismanaged, white star lined wanted to make their deadline and arrive in fact early To NY also , the standard practice was to speed up through ice fields back then, the technology back then was also a challenge, relying on lookouts, but in terms of manning the ship, Titanic captain and many officers went down with the ship prioritizing women and children firsy
I'm kind of amazed at the condition of some of those areas above the water line ; for example the gym equipment, which, whilst looking tired, doesn't look like anything has really happened.
its sad to see that a modern cruise ship capsized i feel bad for the people that were trapped inside, r.i.p to those who lost their lives due to a bad captain
Great pictures! Amazing how much damage to the side was submerged and the other side looks like she's ready for the next voyage. Was the captain ever punished for this horrific accident?
The cockpit photo is the most amazing one, you can see one side fully destroyed by the water and the other side in bright colors, looks like a movie set, so amazing
I'm a crew member of a cruise ship.i'm a stateroom steward.i just imagined when i a see a terrible room with all disaster furniture inside the room in this picture..so sad..
Give a thought to the divers who have to go underwater to retrieve those drowned and sometimes mangled bodies, now that's a difficult job, physically and emotionally, especially when some of the bodies have been trapped inside the ship for quite a long period of time. As you probably know, salt water is highly corrosive, and that's the reason why you don't tend to see bodies of people in old ship wrecks, only shoes, and maybe some clothing, they have basically been dissolved (what remains after ocean life feeds.. grizzly thought) by the salt water.
I was thinking the EXACT same thing... if I had to use one word to describe the interior decor of this ship it would be "gawdy"... it is an appalling mish-mash os 80's/saved-by-the-bell, art deco, fantasy/harry potter, and a random motel 6 off of some highway in the midwestern USA... I've seen a lot of video from inside the ship before it was ruined and every room and public space is not classy or elegant, its just chintzy and tacky and gawdy...
@@bgdrewsif It's also that hideous green color. Why was so much based around that color scheme. It's like they've tried to build emerald city from the wizard of oz for a cheap theater production.
Tristan Ziegler It's the same model of ship as the “Carnival Victory”, it's actually a bit nicer interior wise if you want to get a good idea of what it used to look like inside.
I love going on cruise's - there is no better vacation than being on a cruise ship - an it so sad to see what happen to this beautiful ship- I am in tears just looking at this video - wow it just didnt deserve to end like that - being taking apart in an scrap yard with seemingly so much life left in it :'(
Not really. The ship sank because the gash in the hull was huge: 70 metres! NO watertight compartimentalisation would have kept her afloat with that massive damage. That hideous coward Schettino was lucky that the dead ship drifted to the shore which kept her 'upright' for crucial minutes. Had it drifted asea the death toll would have been massive, given the list and the utter chaos aboard. Also, it didn't split in two during 2 years on her side, as hulking as it was.
As horrific as this is, I just want to say hats off to this photographer. It's tragically beautiful, the composition of these shots. I hope to be as good as you someday.

Thank you. Your work is fantastic. You really did the Costa Concordia proud. I enjoyed it .
2:13 I see the cup of coffee survived intact!
This picture seems to be staged. Someone placed the bottles on the counter and the cup on the table to make it look more interesting. Kind of like a lost place where people left in a hurry in the middle of a party.
omg lol you are right although that may just be rust water in that mug
Yup, see those cash register LCD screens on the floor, through rusted so water level's been up. So no way a coffee cup / bottles would survive upright on the tables. And the ceiling/speakers too, so this part has been submerged fully.
I’m on a cruise ship right now so this is just the perfect thing to watch (I’m on the Harmony of the Seas from Royal Caribbean)
Poor captain, he tripped and fell off the boat but fortunately he landed in a life boat.
HAHAAHHAHAHH funny
Not Funny. And No I am Not A Karen. But I am seeing this as a joke. 😣
One of the few times on RUclips that the background music is perfect for the video
Very few.
Wow, this is simply astonishing. This beautifully defines the power of photography and its ability to record before time inevitably erases. Thank you for sharing, pure inspiration!
I was on the trip it did before the one where it crashed, I was 8. Chilling to see how it got wrecked..
Amazingly heartbreaking. One half of the ship is completely destroyed? The other looks like it needs a quick tidy up. Rip to those that died.
Because 50% was submerged and 50% wasn’t.
I believe the shots are from an official person connected with the salvage for the purpose of documentation etc. Some shot were purposely staged, such as the wine bottles on the bar and a few other shots. I believe the scrapping of the ship is well under way, if not almost done.
They had to be from an official or an insurer. Costa was very specific about limiting the public's viewing of the wreck. Nobody other than workers were allowed on board, and everything was to be destroyed.
Nope. It was a photographer who snuck in and took pictures.
Jonathan, you are an artist. You brought so much emotion to everyone with your pictures. It brings tears to my eyes seeing such a beautiful vessel reduced to this. I can only imagine how the hundreds of crew would feel that made this magnificent ship their home for months at a time seeing these pictures.
But with this tragic accident brought great change to the cruise industry in how all cruise ships were to be captained to stop this ever happening again.
Even 7 years later this is still really sad
I can't even imagine all of the valuable and priceless possessions all of these travelers lost: photos, clothing, luggage etc. They had to leave it behind and save their lives.
From construction to deconstruction..and in between happiness and sorrow..time is short..choose wisely.
0:49 what my room looks like
I still remember seeing it on the news. I've never been on the Costa Concordia, let alone a cruise ship, but this video made me cry
I like how the Gym/Fitness room is still clean 4:01
I feel so sad about them who was trapped inside...people in the elevators...I can't even imagine how terrible it would be. 😔
So eerie.... the muddy corridors.
and the ghostly family in the picture in the cabin @ 0:54
This looks eerily similar to cruise ships I’ve been on. I know it’s part of the carnival cruise line but it’s kinda weird seeing somewhere similar to where I’ve walked and slept that’s been underwater for that long.
Isles suck. LGR
This montage of photos and music at the beginning is a piece of work.
It’s so sad to watch this 😞 I stayed on the costa Concordia 2 months before it sank
I went on many conquest class ships and to see a ship so familiar sink is very dissapointing
It must have really stunk in there. I worked at Todd Shipyards in Galveston during my first two years of college back in 1968 when we were converting old WW2 tankers and Lykes Lines ships to the first container ships. I still remember the stench of those old vessels.
I can still remember the interior of the other three Costa Ships I went on, they look so similar
Things like these are why I love shooting photography. I'm a bit jealous. 😁 I haven't been to many abandoned sites, much less a place of this magnitude.
Thank you Jonathan for these powerful pictures.
Crazy that all those treadmills still look pretty new
My dads friend designed a few rooms on the ship, I still don’t know what he thinks after it sank...
The Costa Concordia is/was such a beautiful vessel. I truly feel sorry for all of the passengers that had to go through this. It must have been a frightening experience....
I've personally seen this beautiful ship on the inside and remember thinking it looked a bit garish or flashy. (typically Italian if you will)
But seeing it now, like this. After what has happened...
To all who had to endure the final moments on the cc. I hope you are doing well now.
Modern day titanic my ass , one was an amazing sequence of events that leads to hitting an ice berg, the other was a captain who drank too much and left the people to fend for themselves and die !!!
BRIAN MOONEY in a way it is a modern day titanic, due to the arrogance and negligence of those running the ship destruction became of the magnificent ships. The workers of titanic were busy sending messages to shore for passengers and ignored another ships (known as The California) distress call saying there was an iceberg in the path, they cutoff communication with The California and less than 1 hour later they had collided with the iceberg, as well as this the captain decided to get sloppy drunk, ignore safety protocols and leave innocent people to die because he was being careless. Sounds pretty similar to me.
With the Titanic, Flair's were sent up but the passing ship thought it was for celebration and not all the crew were sending telegrams. Also, considering the navigational abilities of the times, human error in the form of watchman not seeing it till almost upon the iceberg compared to electronic devices being able to detect water depth and submerged items being over ridden might make this similar but I don't believe the Titanic's captain intent was anywhere near what this guy's was.
@@makaylawishon723 titanic's captain never got drunk. And he didnt ignore any safety protocol either, because they were created specifically because titanic sank...
@@makaylawishon723 ready a few books about the Titanic instead of watching shitty films and you realise you are talking complete shit
@@makaylawishon723 yeah, Titanic was not mismanaged, white star lined wanted to make their deadline and arrive in fact early To NY also , the standard practice was to speed up through ice fields back then, the technology back then was also a challenge, relying on lookouts, but in terms of manning the ship, Titanic captain and many officers went down with the ship prioritizing women and children firsy
*_it's amazing the lights still function_*
I'm kind of amazed at the condition of some of those areas above the water line ; for example the gym equipment, which, whilst looking tired, doesn't look like anything has really happened.
A modern cruise, half sunken for two years
32 people perished. Look at the interior, worn down by water...
R.I.P Costa Concordia 2006-2012
its sad to see that a modern cruise ship capsized i feel bad for the people that were trapped inside, r.i.p to those who lost their lives due to a bad captain
I think the belongings from those people whose cabins weren't affected by the water should be returned to its respective owners.
I think there were only two deaths as a result of the accident.
@@sstills951 33*
theenglishtanker Yeah I saw that on another video three minutes after I posted the comment. Boy was I wrong. 33 souls, what a damn shame.
S Stills indeed it is. But that’s what happens when you give an incompetent captain command of a vessel like the costa concordia
theenglishtanker does it make you wonder whether there are other incompetent captains still piloting our oceans?
She really was quite grand. A beautiful vessel. These images are hauntingly beautiful as mentioned previously.
Glad to see the Costa Concordia sail again!
You're a regular comedian.
All that work to build it.....
And 1,000 times more work to tear it apart and dispose or recycle the materials.
A B C ouch,headache!!nononono....🤕
And all that money 😔
Completely blows to see such an awesome feat of achievement reduced to a moldy piece of scrap..RIP for the ones who didn't make it out.
Great pictures! Amazing how much damage to the side was submerged and the other side looks like she's ready for the next voyage. Was the captain ever punished for this horrific accident?
16 year jail sentence.
The cockpit photo is the most amazing one, you can see one side fully destroyed by the water and the other side in bright colors, looks like a movie set, so amazing
By "cockpit" are you referring to the bridge?
@@slim-oneslim8014 sorry, yes 😂
@@carolitoffana 👍
I wish they did side by side comparison with pictures taken before, or with the footage from the sinking.
I'm a crew member of a cruise ship.i'm a stateroom steward.i just imagined when i a see a terrible room with all disaster furniture inside the room in this picture..so sad..
Give a thought to the divers who have to go underwater to retrieve those drowned and sometimes mangled bodies, now that's a difficult job, physically and emotionally, especially when some of the bodies have been trapped inside the ship for quite a long period of time. As you probably know, salt water is highly corrosive, and that's the reason why you don't tend to see bodies of people in old ship wrecks, only shoes, and maybe some clothing, they have basically been dissolved (what remains after ocean life feeds.. grizzly thought) by the salt water.
Disaster aside... I can't get over how hideous the interiors of this ship are. It's like something from the 80's...
I was thinking the EXACT same thing... if I had to use one word to describe the interior decor of this ship it would be "gawdy"... it is an appalling mish-mash os 80's/saved-by-the-bell, art deco, fantasy/harry potter, and a random motel 6 off of some highway in the midwestern USA... I've seen a lot of video from inside the ship before it was ruined and every room and public space is not classy or elegant, its just chintzy and tacky and gawdy...
@@bgdrewsif Couldn't agree more.
@@bgdrewsif It's also that hideous green color. Why was so much based around that color scheme. It's like they've tried to build emerald city from the wizard of oz for a cheap theater production.
So many of the damaged parts make me feel like I'm looking at some old, abandoned derelict building from a hundred years ago, not a cruise ship
I watched the sinking of it and in all of the rooms I'm like, *That room used to be so beautiful...* Just, wow.
3:47 yay, the piano is still fine somehow!
No but seriously, they should make this into a museum or something of the sort.
It was bolted down.
Modern day Titanic.
joe Schlotthauer
not at all, the sinking of the titanic was a real tragedy
joe Schlotthauer Poseidon is more like it
This was human error and stupidity and failure to follow out procedure such as instructed in the passenger safety drill.
Adrian you know that was only a movie. There was NO Poseidon cruise ship that sunk.
hhds113 then I stand in the clear to regard the ship in a film tipping in a similar manner as the ship from Poseidon’s adventure .
I felt like there was gonna be a jump scare the whole time lmao
It's for weird that the cabins look exactly like you'd expect after being turned 90 degrees, but the cardio machines are all in neat little lines.
This is Sad and Haunting to look At!Beautifull Photography!
the ship interior looks very old fashioned and a little bit ugly
Cuz it's rusted to hell bud...
Tristan Ziegler
It's the same model of ship as the “Carnival Victory”, it's actually a bit nicer interior wise if you want to get a good idea of what it used to look like inside.
Tristan Ziegler look up the costa Concordia preview video when it was a new ship , it was one of the prettiest cruise ships out there in my opinion !
Good observation Tristan. Most likely "ugly" because it's been...well....underwater?
Yea cause it's been half way underwater for 2 years.
I love going on cruise's - there is no better vacation than being on a cruise ship - an it so sad to see what happen to this beautiful ship- I am in tears just looking at this video - wow it just didnt deserve to end like that - being taking apart in an scrap yard with seemingly so much life left in it :'(
abraham mayes
My thoughts exactly- just doesn't seem the end such a magnificent ship deserves
Who the fuck cares about the ship, what is sad is that people died.
You are not in tears watching this. Lol your pretty lame
For me, it was when they towed her back to Genoa. The once beautiful ship was so broken and damaged. It was heart breaking.
@partyfants Hey pasty farts! Who gives a rat's rear end what you think.
with this music and pictures, getting a real "The Last of Us" vibe
It would be really cool to see before and after pics of the ship. Very sad 😢
1912 : Titanic
2012 : Costa Concordia
2112 : ??
Harmony of the seas
2112:Netherlands
That is heart breaking. Hope the captain coward spends the rest of his useless life in jail.
You mean prison
Sims sunshine same thing dumbass
no it's not, dumbass.
He got sentenced to 16 years
@Bill Williams ...But... why are they called prisoners if they're in a jail? Wouldn't they be, well, jailers? :D
It shows you how fragile these ships really are!
Not really. The ship sank because the gash in the hull was huge: 70 metres! NO watertight compartimentalisation would have kept her afloat with that massive damage. That hideous coward Schettino was lucky that the dead ship drifted to the shore which kept her 'upright' for crucial minutes. Had it drifted asea the death toll would have been massive, given the list and the utter chaos aboard. Also, it didn't split in two during 2 years on her side, as hulking as it was.
Not really. It goes to show how human idiocy and cockiness can kill.
The gym looks pretty intact 👌🏼
Beautiful Costa Concordia you gave us great memories RIP 💙💙💙
I'm just confused as to why they were still using non-flatscreen TVs in some of the cabins
