British Naval personnel were not following health and safety regulations and suffered more losses as a consequence. Jutland was a British victory although not a glorious one. Germany was unable to stop the blockade.
I think what's missing from the video was what the German navy was trying to achieve when they sailed out into the waters, which wasn't to gain control of the North Sea. The Germans sailed out to try and isolate a smaller part of the British fleet and destroy some of their capital ships to even the odds, which weirdly, they succeeded at doing (despite Sheer failing to maintain secrecy of his mission) by engaging Betty's Battlecruiers and the 5th Battleship squadron getting entangled with the High Seas Fleet. But the British comeback with the Grand Fleet blunted whatever gains Hipper had achieved, but it came at the cost of yet another British Battlecruiser. Regardless if the High Sea's fleet managed to somehow sink most of the British Grand Fleet, they would have turned around and headed for port, since it wasn't their purpose to wrestle control of the seas that day, they wanted to avoid the Grand Fleet at any cost. What surprised me about this battle was how quickly the Germans managed to repair their damaged ships and send them out the hunt the British again, but nevertheless, the last Dreadnought duel of WWI happened at Jutland
Great vid helped with my homework 😂

A very informative video.

They didn't succeed at 'evening the odds' because they only sank a 'few' more ships in a MUCH larger British navy.
If you know this then why say it's missing?
I kinda liked this video 😁
Good,
good
I believe Jellicoe to be an
incompetent oaf!
Nelson he wasn't.
