That is why mariners during WWII were told to swim as fast as they could away from the ship after it was torpedoed.

Thanks for showing this new and different angle of the dramatic scuttling of the Stellar Banner. (I wish the video coveyed the actual sounds of the sinking rather than music.) Gosh, when the ship finally sank, it certainly sank fast.

Look up Sinking ship, VLOC Stellar Banner scuttled HD on KZread. Lots of wind noise in the audio, but you clearly hear the ship as she goes down.

It’s sad for the ship it’s served us for a long time only to get betrayed by us when it’s ran aground and sunk.

Surprised they didn’t take it to be scrapped. If they managed to move it to deeper water I’m sure they could have moved it to get scrapped

There’s a different video that is from the ship behind it, and it is said the ship was breaking up underwater so it is likely shattered.

Let’s ruin a good video by adding stupid music

This is the fault of relying on bow thrusters, because you can’t handle a vessel without them, making you not fit to be near any water!

@jimlepeu577

How can you infer that without seeing what sank that ship? Bow thrusters are only any use when you are manoeuvring at speeds of less than about 3 knots. This looks like a collision at higher speeds than that.
