Wars of the Roses would be amazing! Not only some of the most brutal and tactical battles in English history, but also a culmination of some of the most influential aspects of the Middle Ages. The Plantagenets' warlike tendencies, the rise of gunpowder, and the volatility of the feudal system all came to a head in one of the greatest historical finales of all time. In short, I second the motion.

the officer in command of HMS Hood, Vice Admiral Lancelot Holland, used to worship in Boldre church which is local to me. There is a memorial to the crew and a yearly service is held on the anniversary of the sinking. 1,418 men dead in 3 minutes.

This video is top notch. Not only is the information presented in a very professional manner, but its technical quality is superb. In particular, the audio is much better than most KZread videos. One thing I learned is that Bletchley Park was up and running during this battle. I didn't know that they had broken the German Naval Enigma that early. I'm gonna have to check on this assertion to see if it is really true. Edit: I checked on it, and Gordon Welch and Alan Turing had already advanced Bletchley Park into code breaking the German Navy Enigma code. There is a KZread video called Bletchley Park by Ian Beckett that explains the chronology.

Heading to France meant fighting all the Brit ships heading north and then get bottled up and bombed in a French port? If Captain Lindemann had control then the Bismarck could've survived!

@@donaldshotts4429 Lütjens did what he could with the impossible mission he was given, Bismarck could not have sunk POW as at that point Bismarck was damaged with reduced speed and fuel, wasting your fuel to try and sink a Battleship that already to far, is not kinda not the best idea. You see he kinda can't go back to Norway, by this point Lütjens had practically known that German intelligence is not very reliable, at the start of Operation Rheinübung, the German intelligence had told Lütjens that he shouldn't encounter HMS Hood or any King George V-class battleship, and we all know where that ended. So in Lütjens's eyes, POW could be leading him into a much more heavier force, so he's not looping back to Norway, he's not taking his chances goin back to Norway with the chance of encountering more British ships. France was the only choice, going to Norway is like going straight to the storm as British forces will be between him and Norway. If Lindemann commanded Bismarck, they would have survived for a day and not 3

Survive the Dash Bismarck got attacked and sunk as soon as Prinz Eugen left Lucky ship Prinz Eugen they said

A very useful illustration of events. Whatever one may think of the Bismark's intentions in sinking merchant vessels, one overriding rule among sailors is that you never leave a living soul adrift at the mercy of the sea. The cruiser Dorsetshire and destroyer Maori would have remained longer to rescue Bismark's survivors had lookouts not reported the possible sighting of a U-boat. Sailors on the British ships were seen frantically casting bouyancy aids to the Germans as the our ships began to steam away. One can only imagine the terror and anguish those young men felt at being left to their fate...

You completly forgot about what happened after Ark Royals torpedo attacks - the best part of the story. 5 Destroyers where fighting with Bismarck for 8 hours.

Love how the Prinz Eugen just pissed off and was like "They want the Bismark, lets get outta here under the pretext of 'raiding convoys'"

Well, it followed orders. If you think about it, Lutjens was right. The most powerful ship in the task force was damaged and in need of repair, its mission was over. The least powerful ship was still operational, could still do some damage and the enemy would rather sink the bigger threat.

I’m late to the show but I see people commenting on how the Bismarck went down on it’s first voyage and to biplanes. The Swordfish planes were obsolete, yes, but their obsolescence actually helped them sink the Bismarck due to their slow speed and wave top flight. The AA for the Bismarck actually wasn’t able to depress low enough for the planes and their speed made them hard to track. (The history visualized guy actually goes into great depth on this subject)

The Swordfish were not obsolete. They were front line aircraft that sank more Axis shipping than any other aircraft. They served to the end of the war.

Lütjens was unaware that British had already lost Bismarck, that's why he broke radio silence since he thought that Bismarck was still being shadowed. Bismarck was the only ship damaged, Prinz Eugen was still undamaged meaning she could still continue the mission of commerce raiding

I thought you would never make this video! Thanks!

Goosebumps. Please continue on this series. Would love to see what happened next. U boats :)

Navy tactics: whoever brings more guns to the fight wins. Intelligence: enables surprise & coordination Surprise = force multiplier Coordination = force multiplier Aircraft carriers = exponential firepower multiplier The navy game is to use intelligence in a manner that enables coordinated superior concentrated firepower in a surprise attack. The KM at all times lacked reliable intelligence, firepower concentration, & surprise. They wasted their navy resources by not following this basic navy doctrine.

You are doing a great job! This video was very excitingly made. Even though I knew that the mighty German Battleship was about to sink, I nearly and secretly hoped that all things will go well for her - because you just telled the story so goddamn excitingly. Congratulations :)

I know right? The Bismarck was an impressive ship no matter how you see it, created by a nation with little naval power yet it immediately sunk the pride of the navy belonging to one of the most powerful, if not THE most powerful maritime nation at that time.

This video is amazing and you deserves to get millions of views. Also it should be used as classroom material at college levels courses.

​@@imma5761Unfortunately, war is rarely convenient. Although HMS Hood was in need of a long overdue overhaul, it was one of the few capital ships the Royal Navy had available that could match the speed of Germany's battleships. The others were 2 King George the 5th class battleships and 1 Renown class battlecruiser, beside aircraft carriers, in the Home Fleet. That was it!!

I've always been baffled by one question: since Bismarck was only a few hundred miles away from the French coast, why didn't the Luftwaffe rescue her? I mean the range of a bomb/torpedo-loaded Fw190 is 800 km/500 mi, which should be enough for such mission.
