Container shipping is a capital intensive business with slim margins,, mostly.. costs are everything as is logistics and most of all velocity,, this requires schedules that are tight,, and with shore side productivity that is also high.. it works virtually all of the time due to the efforts of proper planning and operational efforts land and sea,, incidents such as this are rare,, I know,, I ran deployments, scheduling and planning for one of the largest carriers in the world,. It’s a magnificent business run by dedicated people and masters who know the safety of their ship is their first priority.. you assumptions are exposing your ignorance
So basically, it comes down to this if the captain veered off course and didn’t maintain a tight schedule, he would’ve been ridiculed and fired. But if he maintains course, and the ship gets damaged and loss of cargo due to the storm, he would get ridiculed and fired. Got it.
Yeah it’s pretty messed up. They need to take weather seriously. Cruise ship captains will not go to certain spots if the weather is bad and people get super upset. I understand but those captains make great calls.
In the case of ' El Faro ', the captain was blamed to no end by the executives when the ship sank. They put immense pressure on him to deliver on time. The captain had no way to defend himself....he was dead.
They are always so quick to blame the Captain or crew. Yet its fine when companies push these people to meet these limits or be out of a living. If the crew were not stressed they would not be pressed in meeting quotas. Who is the real cause of the wreck/damage...
I will never understand how companies dealing with hundreds of millions of Dollar worth equipment think it’s a good idea to cheap out on the crew that is trusted with the whole thing…
Was just about to ask this very question. Well, to be fair, this is one of the many typical BS clickbait channels out there, right here, right now. Such a pity it wasn't such!
Insurance companies should not be allowed to file lawsuits against the manufacturers. They should check the ships construction and safety before insuring. Once Insurance is covered, they have basically stated they are good with what they are covering.
It would be impossible to do this because they would have to tear the ship apart to see how it's built. Maybe the insurance should be present during construction.
@@YolandaPlayne If they used materials other than those specified by the engineers, then the liability resides with the company that made the unapproved change. I hope they got good "I fucked up" insurance.
TEU stands for "twenty-foot equivalent unit". It's a standard size for a shipping container. A TEU is 20 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8 feet tall. It's the most common type of container used on cargo ships
When they hell you ever see 20 ft containers anywhere? You ever see a semi hauling a 20 ft container? You ever see the port’s in Long Beach ca ? Not a 20 ft in sight.
I can tell you from personal experience, just 17 collapse containers below deck are a nightmare to remove, you have to climb around on this cargo that could continue to collapse trying to hook it to a crane to pull it out of the ship, I have seen wine bottles and redbull cans all over the dock as they spill out of the containers hanging from one cable pulling it out of the ship
If you are 1600nm NW of Hawaii there is no way you’d travel East to get to Kobe (which is West from the position) unless you travel all the way around the World to get there.
It’s so crazy how they can afford the clean to over load the ship but can’t afford to build another ship and not over load it.. They don’t care about the lost stuff or the pollution they have caused
Imagine having a stability system based on the integrity of assorted containers from around the world all with varying degrees of decay and weakness. Its more amazing this sort of accident does not occur more often. As any container can be a weak link in the chain of strength holding it all together.
Most modern ports have unionized longshoremen that won't touch sketchy containers because loading them and fastening down all the cables and locks would be very dangerous if they couldn't expect those containers to not he rust buckets.
I used to live near Sidmouth and spent the summer photographing the Napoli. I have photographs of the explosion used to separate the hull. And witnessed the containers that washed up on the beaches there, mostly at Branscombe. Myself and a friend walked the beach in really bad weather. We had my jack russel with us. We stopped and sheltered behind a container of white goods to make hot chocolate and feed the dog. We had left her food several miles away in the car. We nosed about the containers and guess what, one was full of dog food, so little Charlie got her dinner after all. We got to Branscombe and watched as people pillaged whatever they could, from baby products to motorbikes. Sadly when we got back to the donkey sanctuary where we had parked my car, all the windows were smashed as it had also been robbed. Anyway we drove home and got it fixed via the insurance. As if there wasn't enough to steal on the beaches, selfish i say.

There's a cargo ship on fire right now, north of The Netherlands with almost 4000 cars on it, including 300 Mercedes-Benz. 1 death and several injured from jumping off the ship. The fire could go on for weeks.
Even a person of very average intelligence can look at these ridiculous cargos and see that they are just accidents waiting to happen. Sadly,as is always the case,greedy businessmen rule the day . How far have we really advanced as humans?
As you all don’t think twice as you select add to cart on line full knowing that what you ordered most likely came via one of these ships owned, operated and commissioned by one of these “greedy” businessmen. You all crack me up.
The numbers stated are genuine. BUT! The maximum number count is based on 20ft containers: What you see on deck are mostly 40ft containers..... if ALL the containers were 40ft , the number that could be maximum that could carried would be HALF the rated TEU number.
Believe it these ships are huge go out to Long Beach and see how massive they truly are! It takes 48 hours plus just to unload one and another 48 plus hours to reload! 24 hour shifts non stop!
One Apus's Captain when told of a storm ahead - "More speed !" Titanic's Captain Smith when warned of the icefield ahead - "More steam !" Ambition, hubris, 'targets' - some things never change.
Wow - interestingly presented! But crazy how many of these desasters already happened and nothing much has changed in the way these vessels operate.. All the best from Switzerland
I wonder how many people were in any of those containers you know trafficked people. I wonder if divers were sent down to investigate this, or if it was already known?
The Ever Given’s Gross tonnage is 220,940, but GT is a measure of internal volume for taxing purposes. Her Summer deadweight tonnage (usually in Metric tons) is 199,629, meaning she can carry that much in fuel, cargo and ballast to get to her Summer marks. Displacement is indeed the weight of the ship at any particular time, and that could be 265,876 at her Summer marks. I’m not sure what her displacement was at time of her grounding. Ships handle differently in narrow channels with limited clearance under the keel. It’s made worse by going too fast. But yes, slamming a couple hundred tons of mass going at 14kts is sure to make you stick in the sand for a while.
The oceans are littered with discarded containers. If a ship gets into really bad weather, they ditch them. Insurance covers them. They are a real hazard for small ships, especially sail boats. I know of several instances recently were sailboats crossing the atlantic have hit submerged containers. One losing its rudder and having to be rescued by the local naval force.
@dixondavies What a load of shit. "they ditch them"- oh yeah, just push them over by hand? "rescued by local naval force"- which side of the Atlantic was that?
It didn't go down. It was deliberately beached between Beer and Branscombe. First bow in then turned around later in the salvage operation. I photographed the entire salvage operation. The main hull after the separation was taken to Ireland and built into another vessel whilst the remaining section was cut up on site.
Growing up in NY I was always fascinated by the huge ships we'd see in the distance while out surfing. Since I moved to Maine I met a lot of merchant marines , including 2 from the El Faro, Danielle and Dylan, both from the town I was living in at the time. . Surprised that story wasn't in this video, That "captain" killed them all, trying to impress his bosses for a promotion he was never going to get.
The disaster often continues for months of clean ups or years in the case of a shallow sinking that needs to be retrieved or removed from endangering other vessels.
01:33 "as a result of the waves that hit the ship, thousands of containers 'below deck' collapsed, and were 'lost at seas'". One has to wonder, how containers 'below deck', could get 'lost at sea'?
It is not uncommon for ships to come in with missing containers because of a storm, the beach look like a lake and 25 miles out there were 20 ft. Waves, they shoot holes in the containers to make them sink because if another ship hits them they're liable for the damage
We are damaging the ocean, we are messing with what is very vital to humns and so we will all suffer for this. How can anyone in their right mind load these ships like this. WOW!
Being a animal lover my myself im totally with you but unfortunately containers ship's are also more vital and more demanding now more then they ever was because as you might know most people buy on line now, so with that we're now having a lot more stuff being shipped in and obviously that means more boats now at sea then what the was 20+years ago
And what happens to all of those spilled containers? The ocean is now littered with partially submerged objects which smaller vessels can crash into. A couple years ago two firefighters took their small boat out off the coast of Florida and were never seen again. All that was ever found was a little wreckage leading to the belief that their boat struck something which was partially submerged and they were wrecked and lost. Searchers gave up after a couple weeks.
The second story of the ship they didn’t sink it. They used dynamite to cut it into pieces, and they hauled it off to the scrap yard. Smidt salvage did that job
Yep. I photographed the whole MSC Napoli incident for almost the entire salvage operation off the Devon coast, including the blast used to separate the main part of the vessel from the conning tower. The fore section was taken to Ireland and built, yet again, into another vessel. The aft was dismantled where it sat.
Regarding the One Apus, Ocean Maritime insurance requires the vessel to maintain its course regardless of weather conditions. Deviations must be approved in advance. Any deviations must be reported to the insurer regardless if there was no loss in order to maintain coverage.
"insurance requires the vessel to maintain its course regardless of weather conditions" Rubbish - the captain is king on his territory the ship - he needs approval from no one but God.
The final say of the route is still left to the Master. He can deviate any time he deems necessary, especially for weather or SAR. MOST companies have weather routing services available to the Master to aid him in his decision-making.
it doesnt just happen at sea it happens on land too the trucking industry is dictated to by the big supermarkets etc and squeezed with low prices and deadlines to meet frocing truckies to take risks to meet deadlines with the on going costs of maintaining their vehicles and no doubt there are other industries that are pressured in the same way
I remember the Amoco Cadiz going down in 1978. I was only 13 but the name of the ship stuck in my mind to this day. It was a terrible event spilling 220,000 of crude oil off the coast of France. It caused the largest loss of marine life caused by Humans to date.

This is why it so important to export all industry to China so they can use coal fired power plants to run the worlds manufacturing, then over stack the goods on giant heavy fuel oil powered container ships. But at least countries of the west will be zero carbon.
The primary accomplishment of "countries of the west" is for their corporations, and the executives within, to generate the maximum profit for themselves and their shareholders due to using the cheapest labor and avoiding ALL of the domestic environmental and labor related regulations !!! The "SALES PITCH", to the "gullible" American public, for this model is "lower prices". TAKE NOTE on how well that theory is holding up lately while ALL of the goods produced via this same model are total garbage ------------------ at any price !!!!
It’s more obvious by the day, a world run by mankind is not sustainable and has an end. Man cannot contain or check his greed and lust and won’t turn to God for help except as a last dying measure if then.
Do the math on One Apus. You can see the containers with your own eyes. That ship has less than 5k containers even when accounting for below deck containers.
A large part of the blame goes to ships not being maintained up to specs for storm and wave management, as well as impoperly secured containers. In addition to the pressure to maintain a tight schedule, as commented elsewhere here..
SEATOWN, England. Wrong, it's SEATON in East Devon. I used to live there. Anyway, the ship grounded nearer to another place called BEER. Lots of people took away motor cycles and other expensive😮 9:21 consumer goods.

I wonder how many ppl died trying to go out there looking for a container??
i’m confused as to why these ships don’t have “walls” on the sides to avoid containers flipping over into the ocean
Probably too heavy for the ship to sail properly
01:33 "as a result of the waves that hit the ship, thousands of containers 'below deck' collapsed, and were 'lost at seas'". One has to wonder, how containers 'below deck', could get 'lost at sea'?
I wonder exactly the same thing.
BTW the whole mess looks top - heavy, but that's my Landlubber's opinion.
whenever you hear a hired voice reading a script, switch the channel..... lowest level click bait.
Despite all our modern advancements, the ocean occasionally asserts its dominance, reminding us who's truly in control.
ONE is the lonliest number that you ever
knew.
"Two can be as bad as one..." 🎶🎤
Someone ain't gettin their Amazon package.....
Damn, That's a lot of treasures under the Sea
It is not uncommon for ships to come in with missing containers because of a storm, the beach look like a lake and 25 miles out there were 20 ft. Waves, they shoot holes in the containers to make them sink because if another ship hits them they're liable for the damage
We are damaging the ocean, we are messing with what is very vital to humns and so we will all suffer for this. How can anyone in their right mind load these ships like this. WOW!
Yep.. screw the environment....its money at all costs!
Being a animal lover my myself im totally with you but unfortunately
containers ship's are also more vital and more demanding now more then they ever was because as you might know most people buy on line now, so with that we're now having a lot more stuff being shipped in and obviously that means more boats now at sea then what the was 20+years ago
And now we have the Dali Cargo ship...
And what happens to all of those spilled containers? The ocean is now littered with partially submerged objects which smaller vessels can crash into. A couple years ago two firefighters took their small boat out off the coast of Florida and were never seen again. All that was ever found was a little wreckage leading to the belief that their boat struck something which was partially submerged and they were wrecked and lost. Searchers gave up after a couple weeks.
you know they've lost a ton of containers when after they've all sunk they're starting to stick out of the top of the water.
How could containers that were below ship the lost at sea?? 🤦♂️
What a sad day for these container ships...
The sea always rules supreme - man cannot necessarily conquer it.
Yes....the sea is a bitch...play in her...but don't play with her.
Yeah I hate boats and I would never go on one out in the open ocean. The best you're going to get from me is a 20 minute boat ride across the shore.
The late ABC executive Don Olhneyer said it best “the answer to every problem is money”!
The second story of the ship they didn’t sink it. They used dynamite to cut it into pieces, and they hauled it off to the scrap yard. Smidt salvage did that job
Yep. I photographed the whole MSC Napoli incident for almost the entire salvage operation off the Devon coast, including the blast used to separate the main part of the vessel from the conning tower. The fore section was taken to Ireland and built, yet again, into another vessel. The aft was dismantled where it sat.
How could containers Below Deck be ‘lost at sea’?
Not only are the voices AI but I think the entire narrative is written by AI as well. And that's not a selling point.
It is if you're financing the channel.
Need to make stuff at home!😊
Regarding the One Apus, Ocean Maritime insurance requires the vessel to maintain its course regardless of weather conditions. Deviations must be approved in advance. Any deviations must be reported to the insurer regardless if there was no loss in order to maintain coverage.
"insurance requires the vessel to maintain its course regardless of weather conditions"
Rubbish - the captain is king on his territory the ship - he needs approval from no one but God.
@@tiggywinkle1000 Tell that to any US based insurer. The cargo owners will have their own insurance as well.
The final say of the route is still left to the Master. He can deviate any time he deems necessary, especially for weather or SAR. MOST companies have weather routing services available to the Master to aid him in his decision-making.
it doesnt just happen at sea it happens on land too the trucking industry is dictated to by the big supermarkets etc and squeezed with low prices and deadlines to meet frocing truckies to take risks to meet deadlines with the on going costs of maintaining their vehicles and no doubt there are other industries that are pressured in the same way
A nice video!👍
I remember the Amoco Cadiz going down in 1978. I was only 13 but the name of the ship stuck in my mind to this day. It was a terrible event spilling 220,000 of crude oil off the coast of France. It caused the largest loss of marine life caused by Humans to date.
And the Torrey canyon off land's end 1967
I was only 8 and living on the Isle of Wight off the south coast of England, and like you, still remember that ship’s infamous name.
@@grahamsymons1513 The Torrey Canyon was a canoe compared with the Amoco Cadiz. I went to the beach in the Netherlands ( Zandvoort) and for decades those pesky black blobs of tar were on the bottom of the North Sea. Now I am 77, drive a Diesel, have a computer, had a good life. I think that the Tor Can was the first "supertanker" to have a mishap. Greetings from YVR
The Apus ONE was northwest of Japan, headed south.
Then it turned eastward to Kobe, Japan.
How does that work?
Went around the world to return back to Japan.
One of those ships that can only travel eastward
Imagine sailing at night in your 30’ and hitting one of those containers.
From a broader perspective, insurance claim projections never get old , don't get overwhelmed, get even , nevermind it only works for Amazon
The ships needs to be redesigned to carry and hold all of the containers safely.
Right! That design looked terrible!!
So the 60 lost containers carrying hazardous material are going to harm the marine life :(
Yes and that's painful 😢 💔
Yep, but profits for the campaign donors come first.
No, they were destined for Walmart!
Crazy stuff. They seem so top heavy with the containers stacked so high above the deck ? Is that safe , is it supposed to be like that ?
You only see the containers that are above. There are plenty more that are not visible.
And the ship itself weighs shitton
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?
So that's where my amazon order is😂😊
And people think the loss of the Titan was a major disaster.
This is why it so important to export all industry to China so they can use coal fired power plants to run the worlds manufacturing, then over stack the goods on giant heavy fuel oil powered container ships. But at least countries of the west will be zero carbon.
The primary accomplishment of "countries of the west" is for their corporations, and the executives within, to generate the maximum profit for themselves and their shareholders due to using the cheapest labor and avoiding ALL of the domestic environmental and labor related regulations !!!
The "SALES PITCH", to the "gullible" American public, for this model is "lower prices". TAKE NOTE on how well that theory is holding up lately while ALL of the goods produced via this same model are total garbage ------------------ at any price !!!!
It’s more obvious by the day, a world run by mankind is not sustainable and has an end. Man cannot contain or check his greed and lust and won’t turn to God for help except as a last dying measure if then.
Since the beginning of creation mankind has been disobeying God. We reap what we sow.
well presented video : nice voiceover, music, content. These catastrophic accidents are the result of human greed on an epic scale
Seriously?
This is clickbait BS
Your voice is v atrective and brief v good style thanx
"Estimated 1618 container lost at sea" . Sounds pretty exact to me 😂
Treasure hunt anyone 😀?
Pure stupidity and greed loading a ship that much.
Very nice video
Crane operator looks like a good job.
Nice video
Us “humans”..HAVE SO SCREWED-UP God’s earth.
True 😢
Stopped after “thousands of containers below deck collapsed and were lost at sea.”
Can’t trust anything after thst
Who writes the narrative? "The ship made a voyage, however, it encountered bad weather that hit the "One Apus". A bit redundant!
If I remember there are still thousands of little yellow ducks floating around the oceans and a tons of lego 😂😂
First of all none of the cargo “below decks” could be lost unless the ship sank. The video just gets worse after that.
I was super confused about that… sink the ship .. to get the cargo?? What?
Do the math on One Apus. You can see the containers with your own eyes. That ship has less than 5k containers even when accounting for below deck containers.
A large part of the blame goes to ships not being maintained up to specs for storm and wave management, as well as impoperly secured containers. In addition to the pressure to maintain a tight schedule, as commented elsewhere here..
i love all the stock office worker footage. like any of that filler footage had the least bit of relevance to the incident being discussed.
AS always...it all comes down to "human error!"
1:37 “Thousands of containers below deck, collapsed and were lost at sea.” How does that happen? I think you mean on or above deck.
How did they lose containers that were below deck into the sea? Did the ship have a hole down there?
SEATOWN, England.
Wrong, it's SEATON in East Devon. I used to live there. Anyway, the ship grounded nearer to another place called BEER. Lots of people took away motor cycles and other expensive😮 9:21 consumer goods.
Between Beer and Branscombe. I photographed the entire salvage operation.
I saw Evergiven on open seas and the ship made the entire ocean look small.
