"powerful engines producing 1250 Hp...." Lol. We have cars that have that horsepower to day. We've come a long way.
Underated
Why is Sam Willis not narrating?
This is excellent. However, I really feel the battle can't be fully understood without knowing the Via Dolorosa the Russians trod in somehow coming over 18,000 miles to meet the Japanese in the Straits of Tsushima. Put simply, the Russian fleet was the worst on the high seas, an "archaeological collection of naval architecture" (to quote the bitter words of its commander Adm. Rozhestvensky), manned by ill-trained and demoralized conscripts led by often incompetent and untrustworthy officers (whose presence accounts for the competent and trustworthy Rozhestvensky's temper, which only grew more vile as he shepherded this ragtag gang of lunatic cats to its doom). The result of the Russians' ill-preparedness can be seen in this video's schematic view of the battle. To be blunt, the Japanese know what they're doing; the Russians don't. Thus the former systematically and mercilessly slaughter the latter, no matter how hard the Russians try to fight.
I have one of these shrouds it has a black coffin on it with a jolly roger
what angle do you put the Titanic at when it split? looking at the animations that seems like 30+ angle which is incorrect if you follow James Cameron Titanic "1997" version.
Awsome and outstanding job.
TOP.
how about making sure dolphins, whales, and other marine life dont get cut by propellers
Propeller was really invented in middle ages Holland for windmills btw.
How was the titanics engines tirple expansion with 4 pistons? Its quite a stretch to say they are identical.

Excellent video! ❤️
Nice video
Algae in the water: Oh, this is my client!
I lived on Ascension Island where WD spent what was probably a pretty miserable time.
Interesting. It’s difficult to get to the truth about the Titanic, but always good to hear real information from the inquiry.
The titanic took hours to sink most people had sunk due to hypothermia within 25 minutes of entering the water. By the time she had sunk anyone still in the water was already dead.
Apart from that lady it seems...
@@PeteH0121 the woman testifying was in a lifeboat the entire time. And Rose the woman who was found on the door was out of the water on the door meaning she wasn't treading water using energy to keep afloat. That excess energy was used by her body to keep her core temperature warmer than had she been in the water.
@@Spartacus-4297 Two very lucky people (relatively)
@@PeteH0121 indeed.
Sinking ships displace so much water that they create a suction effect. Dragging smaller things around them into the depths. Add that to the freezing temperatures of the water. It is feasible that anyone still alive after the ship sank was too weak to cry out.
NICELY EXPLAINED, WELL DONEE❤❤
🎉
That is one seriously incredible model of a truly mind blowing ship.
Nice clear animations 👍
3:09 But Collapsible A sank..... oh well, she was found anyway
Where do l get this 3D file?!😢
BRILLIANT
This is fantastic!
And it would take the joy away from exploration and discovery, but maybe they should look into Sat. technology that can see ALL of underwater items, ruins, hahaha. Probably will become real one day, if not already (government probably has the capabilities but is still classified. Probably MANY crazy technologies the public does NOT know about).
totally amazing. Might have been completely destroyed by now, the ruins, that is. Maybe they will find it FROZEN in the Antarctica one day, would be epic if completely intact, though doubtful. Big wave and washing the ruins far away does indeed seem probable. Whirlpool idea is an interesting one, there are probably even CONSPIRACY theories about the ship by now, lol. Even extreme ones.
Brilliant explanation
Typical. Money and vested interest coupled with curruption and greed (in short stupidity). BP, Shell. Look out.
4:49 WHAT?
You may have seen this or similar. I have a yearning!
I’ve never agreed with the much stated remark that the clipper ship was the zenith of sailing ships. While they were sleek, the sail plans required large crews, they lacked cargo capacity & therefore limited to high value cargo. The iron & later steel hulled ships, especially after 1870 were far superior in capacity and many could match the clippers in speed. Innovations such as the Jarvis Brace Winch allowed smaller crews to handle bigger sail plans. Ship designs like Prëussen, Potosi, Herzogin Cecilie showed that sail was still an efficient means of transport. There was still plenty of room for innovation. Where all sailing vessels fell short compared with steam ships was in port operations. Small hatches reduced access & speed of cargo ops. The low freeboard when loaded was partly to blame for the small hatches, since decks could be awash in foul weather. All steel hatch covers as we have now could have helped. The need by most of the square riggers to use solid ballast, such as sand or stone instead of water, also greatly extended the time in port. They could have easily had ballast tanks but owners were typically cheap (still are) & chose not to build them into the design. This was rather short sighted.
I was an adult during The Falklands and I found this absolutely fascinating. Thank you. (But *please* lose the on-screen dancing doodads if you do something like this again.)
Dredging refugees.
Dredging NOT climate change.
Thank you . I was searching high and low for an animation that made sense of this engagement.
the propellers aren't the same
I'm experiencing exam stress, listening to your voice calms me down, thank you.❤❤❤
It's so good to hear your voice this morning.❤❤❤
Only you speak...let the world listen ❤❤❤
It skips the description of the furnace with the firebar arrangement and the ash door.
Love it!
Fantastic.
HAVE TO LAUGH WHEN YOU TRY TO COMPARE BRITISH CARRIERS in EARLY 40’s to Japanese!WITH THE NON EXISTENT BRITISH CARRIER AIRCRAFT. 2 Japanese carriers could have sunk the entire British NAVY!
they can because British AA are no different with Japanese AA .
Very interesting and inspiring
Thh]ere are at least 2 active in New Zealand, Nelson and Auckland.
Essentially, an utterly pointless task. Nice music though.
Beautiful video!
