Same as a singaporean we were also taught about this but i think the most important part ignoring the need for naval power was morale . When most locals heard that force Z was heading for singapore they were in a sense relieved since repulse and prince of wales were decently advanced ships for their time especially prince of wales. Thats why once the radio broadcast of the sinking was released it kinda hit everyone knowing their only naval defence shipwise has been destroyed it was only inevitable then for singapore to be captured

The faces on the characters has improved so much over the years. Absolutely incredible.

As a chinese myself, it is really shameful for one of us to disrespect the men who passed away in this event, further staining our already not very good reputation. May the brave soldiers rest in peace.

Not only as scrap metal. Those ships were laid down before the Nuclear age. This kind of steel from back then is different. Since the First Nuclear test in New Mexico, steel is slightly radio-active when produced. So ships built before 1945 and then submerged (like the German Navy at Scapa Flow or the two battle ships) are incredibly valuable for "Low-Background-Steel"

This incident shows the quality of the commanders British Royal Navy. They continued to fight valiantly and maintained the loyalty of their men. Despite the sheer hopelessness of their situation, they did their utmost. Captain Leech, Tennant and Admiral Philips are commanders although who have been defeated, would’ve made Admiral Nelson himself proud. This battle was unfortunately when it was obvious that this was the end of the era of battleships and battlecruisers. Prince of Wales and Repulse. Sisters of battle, bonded by the depths of the ocean. Rule Britannia.

​@@user-pn3im5sm7k: Although the skill of the Japanese must NEVER be underplayed, hats off to them. But, the ironic thing is. Before WW2, Britain actually built quite a few ships for the Japanese Navy (the Kogno class being the most famous) & we trained a lot of their Naval commanders aswell. They also studied the British attack at Taranto (which they used as a template for the attack on Pearl Harbour). All this would eventually bite us in the arse, to say the least.

The animation is literally out of this world. It gets better and better with every video!! This is one of your best videos so far, the cinematography, the action... magnificent

Not only that - PoW escaped destruction at may 24th, as a dud of Bismarck did not explode. Otherwise - BOOM like HMS Hood. But - the japanese torpedo bombers in december were propably the finest torpedo bombers on the planet earth. No ship would have stand a chance against that. Even getting "unlucky", the second torpedo crippled PoW and sunk her. It hit the outer shaft, that was running for 25kn. The detonation caused vibrations and these destroyed the ship (all water tight sections were destroyed, so basically this single torpedo sank PoW. It is damned bad luck, but all other hits were not needed to sink her. Basically a copy of the torpedo that crippled the steering of Bismarck, who couldn´t escape after such a miracle hit at the exact spot at the exact time.

I've been following this channel for some considerable time, and dare I say, the presentation keeps getting better and better. Kudos to all the Yarnhub team 👏👏👏

I absolutely love those shots when youre just showing off how far your animation has come. That slow-mo scene was beautiful.

The HMS Prince of Wales fought the Bismarck and survived to be slain fight for her king and country. The men of the HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse I salute your bravery from across the pond one service member to another. RIP brave sailors.

one thing that wasn't mention was that one of the earlier hits on HMS Prince of Wales stern impacted the area where the propeller screw enters the hull causing it to bent. The now bent propeller screw kept on turning causing more internal damage as the screw rips apart metal plates as it keeps on turning adding to the every growing flooding.

The Renown-class battle-cruisers are some of my favorite ships. Nice to see a video showing the last stand of Repulse

18:52 Incredible. I love the integration with old photos!

18:48 I really love this moment the animation captures the essence of the photograph of the crew being rescued. This is a heroic action portrayed so beautifully in this project. Very good work.

I know y'all get it all the time but your videos truly are incredible. They illicit fear and dread for those involved but also hope and pride. Your team is doing the world a great service by sharing these stories and bringing them to light and I'm thankful for that. Keep up the great work, Yarnhub!

This is by far one of the greatest videos I have seen from Yarnhub! Beautiful job Yarnhub team!

he lived well the Prince of Wales he still survived the Bismark which is very impressive and the Repulse the 2 battleships fought well until the end

The way that John Leach and Tom Philips decided to go down with their ship is probably one of the most valiant things ever, thei hold of the two ships and how they were able to mantain until the very end would have make Admiral Nelson proud.

I genuinely felt like I was with those brave men on HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse as I was watching this. Excellent job, Yarnhub. One of your best videos in terms of putting the viewer right in the middle of the action.

Amazing editing having the camera follow behind the sailors. It feels like you're there

Excellent work! Especially making clear the bravery of the men on both sides. One remark though, when battleships capsize the main turrets fall out of the barbettes, they are only held by their enormous weight.

@bfrobin446

8 ай бұрын

Depends. A good turret ring is designed to retain the turret against some amount of force so it’s less likely to be knocked off center and jammed by shell hits or large movements of the ship. You couldn’t drydock the ship upside down and support the full weight of the turret that direction, but there’s often some amount of retention. In a sinking, you also have water pressure acting to hold the turret in place until the air pockets inside are crushed or flooded to match the outside pressure. Given equivalent turret designs, a ship that sinks in deeper water is more likely to lose turrets than a ship that hits the bottom before the pressure is fully equalized.

Hey Yarnhub you'e videos are always super entertaining and informative. Too sad those stories tend to be forgotten. I showed this video my great grandfather who was a sailor part of a U-Boat crew in the Kriegsmarine . He cried at the end and was outraged to hear about the dishonoring of the graves. He said in Quote:,, Let those poor B******* at peace. They fought for their country like i did and died to protect their nation.''

The water on the lens effect really adds to the immersion; I feel like every new Yarnhub video I notice another cool little detail.

Maybe if that one torpedo hadn’t struck the shaft of the torpedo, the prince of wales could’ve survived, but it happened, and we can’t change that anymore unfortunately.

A real WW2 thriller this one, almost exhausting to watch, Can't imagine what these en went through during the attack. May they rest in peace!

Similarly to our Malaysian neighbours, the history textbooks in Singapore's secondary schools also note their sinkings. The books also say the British withheld information of their losses until the Japanese inevitably invaded the island by land a few months later in Feb 1942. Even in the face of death, both ships fought to the bitter end and for that they're some of my favourite warships. Ironically, the Yamato would suffer a similar fate three years later...

Not all the IJN bombers were G4M Bettys. A fair number based out of Vietnam were the earlier G3Ms, which had already seen extensive service during the Second Sino-Japanese War. These were the cream of the Misty Lagoon Naval Air Station cadres,the best that the Japanese air forces had to offer.

Great video, guys. The use of voice actors really improves the immersion. That final shot of the officers on the hull brought a tear to my eye.

this is a good video. the quality of these videos has improved so much

I live a few hours drive from the nearest port to where both these ships sank, even though we know the outcome... this fantastic storytelling had me hold out hope for the sailors.

The fact that Repulse dodged 19 torpedoes before her demise is credit to the RN itself. If only a carrier was present to shield the duo with fighters. Lucky I can play a BSP mod as Force Z on PC and rewrite history.

God bless the king, R.I.P Repulse and Prince of Wales.

Nice animation! Been watching since the first year. Keep going and doing it!

This was the moment battleships were pretty much confirmed obsolete: the fact they were incredibly hard to sink until the 50s failed to compensate for the fact airpower simply had too much of a range advantage. Also, 9:12 for my favourite shot involving a ship in any Yarnhub video.

It takes sheer determination to still do your job while being attacked by multiple aircraft, getting torpeoded and bombed all at once while still being able to operate those ships. It shows how strong battleships were in WW2, a normal destroyer nowadays wouldnt survive all that. This feels like we are observing the battle right now, great animations you could feel the tension with the situation in that battle with the music.

This was awesome! One of my favorites yet. I've read so much about this battle and heard it talked about in documentaries so it's super cool to see it animated like this. This was a serious low point for the allies in WWII.

It's sad because the prince of Wales (king George the V class) is such a beautiful ship. It's also the one that was up against the Bismarck with the HMS Hood.

As Japanese, we salute the heroes of that battle. There is an interesting anecdote to this story. Here is a quote from a Japanese website. It is a translation, so please forgive me if there are some strange parts. The captain of the Prince of Wales, Admiral Thomas Phillips, sent a message to the Japanese air corps asking for 30 minutes to evacuate the crew. 　The Japanese air force complied. This allowed the crew of the Wales to transfer to the patrol ship Express and gave the crew of the Repulse time to search, with the Electra rescuing 571 and the Vampire 225, including the captain of the Repulse and a military reporter. 　Meanwhile, the Japanese strike force remained in the air. The Japanese attackers remained in the air while the British rescued them, and did not launch any offensive action. 　Aircraft of the time were neither hybrid nor energy-efficient, as is the case today. If they stayed in the air, they ran the risk of running low on fuel, and if enemy aircraft attacked with reinforcements, they might have to be shot down without even enough gasoline to return home. 　Still, the Japanese air force waited. After the entire Wales crew had left the ship, Commander Thomas remained alone on deck. He is a man of the sea. He chose to die with the ship. 　As the Japanese air crew watched, all aircraft lined up in the sky, passed by the deck one by one, and paid their respects to Captain Thomas by giving him the highest salute in their aircraft. Captain Thomas also responds with the most respectful salute. 　In other words, it was the very Bushido itself that Japanese aircraft waited in the air. Furthermore, the day after the Battle of Malaya, a Japanese aircraft flew back to the area where the battle had taken place. What was it doing there? 　The plane descended to just above the surface of the sea, dropped a bouquet of flowers on the surface of the sea, and left. It was a sign of condolence for the bravery of the men of the sea who had died as enemies and allies. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

HMS Electra also rescued the 3 survivors of HMS Hoods sinking

I know that it’s a little off the point but, you can see how good the Japanese’s strategies were. Bringing bombers and made them think that there wasn’t any torpedo, frequent attacks in directions, and how they adapted in the situations. If there wasn’t any war, all those men could possibly had good carriers, and memories.

While watching this I had goosebumps all troughout. The best video you have made in my opinion! Keep up with the great content and have a nice day.

This recreation and the effects u use in story telling are remarkable. I've been waiting my whole life for this, my daughter is now as enthusiastic as we are, plz keep making this content so she may learn about these important events. I tip my hat to u sir

damn ^^ gave me yamato and bismarck chills :D they fought. they lost. defiant till the end. they went with dignity. and also congratulations to the japanese for this victory, sinking such thick boys. the bomber crews must have been celebrated as heroes ^^
