Titanic didn't actually have enough time in the end her last two collapsible lifeboats floated off the boat deck one upside down, and the other one half flooded.
@Conn30Mtenor I sincerely hope you are still either a kid or teenager, because I cannot imagine a grown man or woman making such an ignorant and stupid comment. Yeah buddy, if only the crew of the Lusitania knew how to evacuate a rapidly sinking ocean liner in less than 20 minutes with no electric power and limited communication capabilities. If only they knew how to maintain order after having their ship get hit with a torpedo. After all, that's a pretty ordinary situation to manage right?
@tideatmilehigh2727 I think the crew of the Lusitania did a pretty good job getting as many lifeboats launched as they did with the small amount of time they had, which was only around 5 to 10 minutes. Especially when the ship was also quickly developed a strong list to starboard as well throughout the sinking.
Der Kaiser had reason to believe that under the guise of a liner ship the Lusitania was carrying ordinance to Britian for the war effort. Thats why he sent the "wolfpack" hunting and the German captain's regrets didnt begin until he witnessed the collateral damage of his torpedo.
The captain of the sub said that he fired one torpedoe,and said that they heard a second explosion.some claim that the Lusitania was carrying munitions for the war effort in england from the states and that was caused her to sink.
When the torpedo hit, many crewmembers were in the cargo hold, preparing the cargo that was to be unloaded in the harbor. They were trapped below decks when the power died. Those were the crew trained in lowering the lifeboats. As a result other crew members had to lower the lifeboats. Some had lowered EMPTY lifeboats before during drills, but those were FULLY LOADED lifeboats, much heavier, which explains why so many of them escaped the grip of the inexperienced crew and fell out of control.
These ships that all looked alike or almost seems to me, were all doomed! What does lifeboats help when it brings you to ammediate drowning and if you stay alive, you are traumatised and hurt!
This is the best computerized re-enactment of the sinking of any ship I have ever seen. Your models are nearly perfect and the movement of both "Lusitania" and ocean are outstanding. I suppose another generation of computer graphics will make the individuals and furnishings of the ship move a well. Until then, this is the best. The final two minutes of the sinking clearly shows how so many people on deck or trapped below, had no chance to get off or away from the giant ship.

@@donaldduck830 I believe the history is clear on this one. What is your problem? Munitions aboard or not, the humane thing to do is wait until it's tied up at the dock and the passengers disembarked, then blow the thing up. This is nothing short of horrifying.
Only a couple of weeks before, the German Embassy published a warning in newspapers telling passengers that travel on Allied ships was “at their own risk,” including mentioning the Lusitania specifically. Germany had declared the waters around the United Kingdom a war zone.
And the US gov intentionally leaked the inventory of the Lusitania to the embassy. Just to have a reason, exactly like the "Maine", like Tonkin, like all the other times...
The White House, specifically Colonel House and Wilson, knew it was going to happen and allowed it to bring America into the War. Same happened with Roosevelt and Pearl Harbor. What we are taught about history is often the cover for the truth. I'm not a "conspiracy theorists", these are documented facts. They had an entire public trial that proved FDR caused Pearl Harbor then lied to the American people that it was a surprise. But ignorance is bliss and most people prefer bliss over reality.
@@dieselyeti I saw a documentary on history channel about that years ago. My school teacher told me that the evil Germans murdered civilians and therefore the US declared war. No mention that it was not the Lusitania but years later. Sorry that I got no more details, but it was more than a decade ago and definitely not yt.
@@jkephart4624 The crew were probably not properly trained either to handle a terrified crownd and get them to board the lifeboats and the lowering the lifeboats properly. I used to work on the appsenger ferries between Sweden and Finland and they could take some 2500 passengers on board with a crew of some 120 persons. We had lifeboat trainings, fire drills, crowd management and evacuation training every week. We were also sent to a naval base SW of Stockholm for a 3 day training. Ont he base they had a huge hall with a huge pool and a hullside of a ship that could be tilted in either direction so you got an understanding how difficult lowering a lifeboat is when the ship is listing. We had to jump into the water from that shipside. It was very important to grab the lifevest collar with both hands and drag it down while you plunged down into the water. Otherwise it could hit your cheeck and knock you out.We also trained using the survival dresses wich could be used in subzero temperatures or when the water was near 4° wich means if you fall into the water in your own clothes you have only a few minutes before hypothermia kicks in and you die. All this started only after the terrible disaster when the passenger ferry Estonia went down in the early 1990:s. Only then did everybody understand that anything can happen at sea.
@@jkephart4624 dseems like the craft was listin and boats were not released for a long whil which created more panic? how v many lives could be saved if the ship turned to shore and lowered life boats more orderly?
They could not turn to Shore Because of damage buy the topedo They were basically going in the circle, but your And. It really. Sucked Because the lighthouse was Only twelve miles away
Sadly, not surprising as the sinking is exactly what Churchill had hoped for. That's not my opinion. He stated as much and it's recorded. Those passengers were live bait. Yet, much like the completely ignored fact the US had broken the Japanese code and almost certainly knew beforehand of the attack on Pearl Harbor, mainstream history refuses to venture there.
@@zyxw2000 not at all. I think expecting the world to believe that stopping zig zag maneuvering and reducing speed in an area already know to have an enemy submarine nearby is a deliberate attempt to get the USA into the war. Expecting the world to accept it is comical. But people can't grasp thinking foe themselves. What is yiur opinion surrounding the sinking?
Iron lover, you did a magnificent job scoring this, conveying 18 minutes of this tragedy. I think your version without any narration is excellent. Well done.
Discovered this by accident. What an amazing and well done presentation, with a truly dramatic and very fitting musical score to accompany the visual aspect. How sad to think of the terror those passengers experienced as they realized what was about to happen! Good job…..
True. The ship was a legitimate war target. Hafta wonder 1. How did the Germans know this and 2. Was this intentional by the Brits to turn world anger toward Germany. Funny, how there are huge factions in the M.E. that hide behind civilians and under hospitals yet everyone is angry that they are being targeted. Somehow Germany was in the right here but... Okay, I'll stop.
Crazy to think that there was indeed a time where military technology was so far beyond public comprehension. I'm sure they didn't think they were in horrible danger. I mean, we've been fighting wars with each other for thousands of years, literally. and never once did we ever document submarines before. I'm curious if there really was a false sense of security for the public around this time, seeing as how we are not quite fully aware of the absolute ungodliness and death WW2 is about the bring to the world. Would love to hear some sort of historical expert chime in. Edit. WW1, not WW2 though on this specific topic it's truly six to one, half a dozen... My point is, I'm not entirely sure we understood the severity of the situation back then, could be wrong.
This was fantastic! You had me from those opening scenes of her proudly cutting through the waves. I’d have preferred narration rather than a soundtrack, but it’s just because of these old eyes. It was a nice soundtrack.
Nice work. This event was one of those "what if" moments just like the moment Gavriel Princip fired the bullets that started the whole conflagration in the first place.
Nope. Both of those were planned events by certain groups in France and the USA respectively. If it had not happened this way, it would have happened very similarly, maybe a week later.
The Lusitania sank in 18 minutes. Are you proposing 1. 2 hours; 50 minutes of soap opera drama and teen romance; 2. 18 minutes of sinking and; 3. 7 minutes of conclusion OR 1. 85 minutes of the Lusitania's voyage; 2. 85 minutes of the SM U-20; 3. 18 minutes of sinking and 7 minutes of conclusion?
@@tomcurda4203I don't get your point. 1997 Titanic movie shows fhe final Plunge in less than 5 minutes. The real time was at least 20 minutes between 45 degrees, lights out and breaking in a half, float and went down again. Time runs different on movie screen.

Most people don’t recognize this. And to be fair the last two collapsible life boats on the Titanic had to be floated off the ship as it sank. These old davits just took to long.
What makes the titanic really sad in my opinion is exactly what you stated, it had the perfect conditions to be a dignified and orderly sinking where almost everyone escaped alive. Yet due to the lack of lifeboats and the ships unsinkable title it didn’t happen that way
You made more of these, great! They're well done. I'll watch the sinking of the Empress of Ireland next. It was another ship that sank too fast for people to save themselves, and this happened in the St. Lawrence River within sight of land!

Astonishingly good! A gripping dramatization, spectacular score, amazing AI work, very detailed and realistic. All but the people - I'm sure Jack knew and agonized over this, but it must have been beyond the capabilities he had access to. They're realistically dressed, but all just stand there and mill about - no panic, not much movement, not even a disturbed hat or umbrella, even while in the water! I must admit, it even lent a slightly comic dimension, despite the poignant drama - perhaps a welcome lightening of the scene, though unintended. Still, that doesn't take much away from this extraordinary effort. Bravo!
Strewth ... one of my school assignments was the sinking of the Lusitania ... I only had the Encyclopedia of Britannica to use. This video really takes me back, nice work!
I had read about this many times but never understood the catastrophic domino effect of events that caused so many people to loose their lives. This brings everything to light, great work.
I'm sorry to say that, but that lifeboat tragic launches, one after another, straight up ending with death of people inside it, but every time in different way, is some kind of sick slapstick comedy...
I honestly cannot begin to imagine the sheer terror and panic that must have set in on the Lusitania. It really must have been absolutely horrifying to have been on a passenger liner and without any warning, being targeted by a torpedo which takes the lives of over 1000+ people. It is the sheer size of our oceans that scares me. Compared to being on the biggest ever ship you are nothing but a spec compared to the massive colossal oceans. A brilliant film and the score to match it was really expertly done, you could feel the panic in the music when the sinking began to take affect.
Ok now I see it, but it was too close in timing to the first, it’s supposed to be about 15 seconds after initial hit of the G7a. But either way, awesome.
Very nicely presented, thank you. I see that the Lusitania had 4 stacks same as Titanic did but one was for looks. On the Lusitania, looks like the same thing, as there's no smoke coming from the stack closest to the stern. I could read the captions just fine, although I had to get closer to the screen, but they were very legible. People need to learn how to compromise instead of complain, when something seems difficult! I also have a hand magnifying glass handy in case something is difficult to read on the screen!

Incompetence (the design of the lifeboats) and callousness (explosives in the cargo) contribute to another human tragedy.
I'd say the Germans had a lot to do with it.
@@robgrey6183if it wasn’t carrying arms it wouldn’t have been a target. Germany took out ads in newspapers to warn potential passengers.
@@skipintroux4444To be fair, they didn't exactly know she was carrying those goods. Doesn't make it any better if she was carrying them or not.
(Regardless, still a crime to torpedo there.)
Incompetence? Try launching lifeboats on a fast sinking ship with a sharp list...
Who hurt you ?
Amazing work!
excellent animation and score. well done all around. compelling storytelling
outstanding video, from music to visual effects! bravo
Visuals are done by Jack & @Oceanliner Designs.
I only did the music! (:
Excellent animation!
The Lusitania represents the cruel reality of most shipwrecks. Titanic's sinking was EXTREMELY dignified and orderly compared to most others.
Most people don’t recognize this. And to be fair the last two collapsible life boats on the Titanic had to be floated off the ship as it sank. These old davits just took to long.
What makes the titanic really sad in my opinion is exactly what you stated, it had the perfect conditions to be a dignified and orderly sinking where almost everyone escaped alive. Yet due to the lack of lifeboats and the ships unsinkable title it didn’t happen that way
Even if the ship had enough lifeboats (approx. 60) they wouldn't have enough time to lower them all@Jackspladt
@@alexcooper5894 true but it still would have been better
thanks ju0
This is a wonderful re-creation. So much work went into it.
The cinematography is startling. 🌌🌍🌊💜💔☮️🙏
You made more of these, great! They're well done. I'll watch the sinking of the Empress of Ireland next. It was another ship that sank too fast for people to save themselves, and this happened in the St. Lawrence River within sight of land!
Its wild that the ladies kept their hats on in the water.
Extra lame comment.
Extra funny comment, actually Thom.

Excellent video of a horrible and terrifying incident in war.I always wondered how many people were trapped in the lifts,or just simply trapped below with no chance of escape.
Great job on this.
Amazing, stunning, horrific and saddening.
Thanks to Demon Winston Churchill who could have prevented the incident , read your history books
Great job. Striking visuals. Keep up the good work.
Remarkable animations.
Awesome recreation of scenes I would never want to witness in person.
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
One of the many reasons I will never travel by ship, especially big cruise ships.
thankfully ships are a bit safer now (althought history teached us not to be too confident) and we're not in a world war for now.
What about the countries firing missiles into the air? (Think KAL 007 and MH 17)
@@neptunedawn7121 Yeah I'd hide under my bed for the rest of my life. No sense in taking unnecessary risks.
multiple cases in the news of serious illnesses ranging from gastrointestinal illness from contaminated drinking water to weeks of quarantine in a foreign port due to COVID outbreaks with many onboard deaths has me convinced.
Excellent job on the Video.
The human figures on the deck during the sinking as well as the people who were in the water and in the boats... it's absolutely unreal!
The human figures were all bolt upright whether on the much tilted deck or in the water. And they all still had their hats on.
@@lesaber251 Dear friend:
Back then, “mysteries” occurred in the sea. Now, they occur more in space. In future times, they may occur on other planets and then in other galaxies.
Human beings are like that… We “need” the inexplicable like oxygen in the air.
Magnifico trabajo .. felicitaciones amigo
Thank you for the excellent animated history - fabulous 👍
Astonishingly good! A gripping dramatization, spectacular score, amazing AI work, very detailed and realistic. All but the people - I'm sure Jack knew and agonized over this, but it must have been beyond the capabilities he had access to. They're realistically dressed, but all just stand there and mill about - no panic, not much movement, not even a disturbed hat or umbrella, even while in the water! I must admit, it even lent a slightly comic dimension, despite the poignant drama - perhaps a welcome lightening of the scene, though unintended. Still, that doesn't take much away from this extraordinary effort. Bravo!
@@DavidImiri I think it was due to time restraints that the people were not animated lively.
Thank you for the overall comments!
@@Ironclover-Composer Yes, I could see that. Thank you again for your stunning soundtrack!
DUDE, THIS MUSIC SOUNDS STRAIGHT OUT OF A MOVIE! KUDOS!
@@alexcooper5894 thank you. A lot of love has been poured into this soundtrack! I’m glad you loved it
@Ironclover-Composer this is just epic. You my sir are super underrated. This sounds like James Horner rose from the dead to compose this
@@alexcooper5894 That was every intention. It means so much! Thank you! I am happy you enjoyed it
@@Ironclover-ComposerI can't wait until your next work, because it's gonna be epic
@@alexcooper5894 Empress Of Ireland and Britannic are next.
Strewth ... one of my school assignments was the sinking of the Lusitania ... I only had the Encyclopedia of Britannica to use. This video really takes me back, nice work!
L👀ks like the crew killed quite a few people with those lifeboats.
This is sad but an excellent presentation!!! I’m glad I stumbled upon this I just subscribed THANKS
Sad, another sea tragedy just like Titanic. Wartime was dangerous then. Great video.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@clairefunnell8481 video is by Oceanliner Designs! (:
It's not like Titanic. Titanic was not the warcrime of Huns.
Wartime is still dangerous.
@@ddsferd1628 Germans, not Huns.
Nicely done. It was close to watching history unfold, tragically, in real time. At times I felt I was in the water, watching the ship go down.
The Titanic sank in 2 hours our ship here 18 minutes. A massive diffrence.
Two hours and forty minutes.
Awesome video, thank you 🙂👍🙏
Lifeboats? More like, Deathboats? Sheesh!
I had read about this many times but never understood the catastrophic domino effect of events that caused so many people to loose their lives. This brings everything to light, great work.
This was well done. It captured the feel of it
I'm sorry to say that, but that lifeboat tragic launches, one after another, straight up ending with death of people inside it, but every time in different way, is some kind of sick slapstick comedy...
So you think the sinking was funny. Go back to your comic books.
Excellent… TY!
Great CGI, enjoyed every minute and the musical score was terrific!!
Thank you! a lot of love was poured into the music!
Bravo! Eerie, frightening, and beautiful. Bravo!
Riveting, I simply couldn’t look away…
THANKS FOR SHARING!!
Very well done with so much detail. Pity about all that carnage, though.
Oceanliner Designs and Jack did an awesome job! I only did the music (:
@@Ironclover-Composer I’m a follower of that channel. He does a great job on a lot of videos. I did enjoy the music, by the way.
"Pity about all that carnage, though." Your compassion is underwhelming.
@zyxw2000 is he supposed to hang himself from the grief of a disaster over a century ago?
@@gaywolfsif4760 No, but feel some compassion for all the tragedy.
Lifeboats? More like death traps, death boats. Very well-made, great job
For whatever reason the Lusitania and other ships like her do not get the attention like Titanic.
The reason that the Titanic gets remembered was the number of millionaire's that died when it went down.
Hollywood lobby doesn't want to show war crimes of Germans. Possibly, they get money from Deutsche Bank, the famous laundry of all dictators.
Nicely done!
FYI - I composed this “SCORE” the video is by Oceanliner Designs and Jack. Enough of the stolen video comments huh!?
Yeah! They are fine with this so ENOUGH.
Score available?
@@professorcynic Yes, link in description.
People are just rude and disrespectful sometimes
Ay que leer más! Esto no es real!
I honestly cannot begin to imagine the sheer terror and panic that must have set in on the Lusitania. It really must have been absolutely horrifying to have been on a passenger liner and without any warning, being targeted by a torpedo which takes the lives of over 1000+ people. It is the sheer size of our oceans that scares me. Compared to being on the biggest ever ship you are nothing but a spec compared to the massive colossal oceans. A brilliant film and the score to match it was really expertly done, you could feel the panic in the music when the sinking began to take affect.
great job, good animation, sad story
@@brucejohnson618 thank Oceanliner Designs! I only scored it!
Only thing is the secondary explosion isn’t there
Ok now I see it, but it was too close in timing to the first, it’s supposed to be about 15 seconds after initial hit of the G7a. But either way, awesome.
A very interesting - and poignant - video. Well done for bringing the whole episode to life.
This is the kind of stuff that should be on Netflix.
No, PBS, which is available to everyone.
@@zyxw2000 hah. True. Maybe they can get that guy from Frontline to do the narrating. He rocks.
Excellent work.
Note to self: never board a ship during war time.
Nice job!
I read Erik Larson’s book, Dead Wake. Good read. The German U boat captain was trophy hunting. Terrible Tragedy.
no The Luisitana was carrying weapons
18 Minutes that is one fast sinking!! not many would have the chance to go on deck
Nicely done! Thank you.
I may have missed something; why weren’t they able to lower the lifeboats slowly?
Very nicely presented, thank you. I see that the Lusitania had 4 stacks same as Titanic did but one was for looks. On the Lusitania, looks like the same thing, as there's no smoke coming from the stack closest to the stern. I could read the captions just fine, although I had to get closer to the screen, but they were very legible. People need to learn how to compromise instead of complain, when something seems difficult! I also have a hand magnifying glass handy in case something is difficult to read on the screen!
Lifeboat seems to be the wrong word.
