FYI, the biggest reason to recover metals from sunken wrecks is not commonly known. But any metal refined before 1944 is highly prized for scientific purposes, because before that year all metal alloys were not exposed to nuclear radiation from atomic tests/bombs. So yes even today, everything on Earth still shows some contamination, though minor, from use and tests of nuclear bombs.
True, I learned that a few years ago and was amazed
I learned about harvesting steel from sunken vessel wile reading articles about the Nagato Class Mutsu.
So, how do these metals differ in terms of quality or appearance?
@mrorangepeel659 "Background Free" metals are valuable in extremely sensitive medical and scientific equipment where even the slightest trace of radioactivity can have an undesirable effect
Its more evidence of the reason old ships are being ravaged for there steel. That the real cause of global warming has been the 200 nuclear testing, explosions, accidents since the 1940s, its not just down to fossil fuels
You forgot the Battleship Bismarck, in a 4800 m deep
Yes, I noted that....!!
so did i think
I was about to comment the same thing
I just commented that. She’s another rookie youtuber
Uss Roberts is at 6.500 m
Bismarck one of the most beautiful ships you forgot
yea thougt that too
The king of the ocean!
The wreck of the German Battleship Bismark and a number of submarines have been found that are as deep as these wrecks, plus a number of U.S. and Japanese air craft carriers. These wrecks should be included.
I was surprised that the Bismarck was not mentioned. It would have fit in between RMS Titanic and SS City Of Cairo.
BISMARCK NOT BISMARK
Whoever comprised this list completely forgot about Bismarck who rests at a depth of 15,700ft
SS Rio Grande (German Blockade Runner), being sunk by gunfire of USS Omaha (CL 4) and USS Jouett (DD 396) after they intercepted her in the South Atlantic, 4 January 1944. Her crew attempted to scuttle her, but were removed by the two U.S. Navy ships prior to their opening fire to sink her.
If educational videos are made, they need to be accurate.
This was her truth. ;)
It was very much not accurate
Where does it claim to be educational?
@@garymitchell5899 It's giving a list of the the deepest shipwrecks. That's educational.
Momma, my gyatt feels funny?
The Bismarck is deeper then the Titanic
than, NOT then!
Ships float due to their design and ability to displace water. When you put something that floats in the water, it presses down against the water and pushes it out, but the water also presses up against the object. In order for something to float, it needs to weigh less than the weight of the water that it displaces. So weight and geometry are the two factors that determine if something will float. This is why large ships are shaped to a point at the bottom, because it allows for a lot more water displacement.
This is also why cargo ships have lines with numbers painted on the sides. You can calculate the weight of the cargo you're picking up, by comparing how low in the water it is to how much lower it gets in the water after you've loaded the cargo.
It’s still a destroyer, not a fucking battleship a battleship has a higher caliber of guns, more heavily armor and there’s a lot more slower
@@stalinfurry9990 does not defy the laws of physics, if a ship is buoyant, it will float
a ship displaces it's weight in the volume of water, so if the water displaced is less than the volume of ship, that means the total volume of ship is less dense than the water it displaces, so it stays afloat
stop making stuff up
@@randomcomputer7248 I'm not making anything up dude. This is real.
Let me crunch some numbers for you really quick. So you can understand just how much water actually weighs.
You can very easily purchase a 15x4ft swimming pool for your backyard.
Its not a very big pool, but it can get the job done.
A pool that size holds 706 cubic feet worth of water. A single cubic foot of water weighs 62.48 lbs. So, the water in that pool weighs 44,164 lbs, or 22 tons.
Now, this is nothing compared to an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a lake, and especially the ocean.
Also, the ocean is salty sea water, which actually weighs more.
Lets check out the Olympic-sized swimming pool next.
An Olympic-sized swimming pool is 88,263 cubic feet. Multiply this by our 62.48 lbs per cubic foot of fresh water, and you get 5,514,672.24 lbs, or about 2,757 tons.
Now, as for a huge cargo ship.
The largest cargo ship in the world right now is the MSC Irina. This ship has a length of 1,312 ft, and a beam/width of 201.1 ft. This gives us a 'footprint' of 263,843.2 square ft.
Now, large cargo ships sit between 30 and 40ft under the water when at their registered max weight. This is where the water is getting displaced. The MSC Irina, the largest cargo ship on earth, sits at 40ft below water.
This gives us a displacement of 10,553,728 cubic ft. We plug in the weight of a cubic foot of water. But wait, this is seawater, which weighs a bit more than fresh water. A cubic foot of fresh water weighs 62.48 lbs., but a cubic foot of sea water weighs 63.93 lbs. It might not seem like much, but it does add up, especially with a displacement this large.
Now, we plug that number into our displacement, and we get 674,699,831.04 lbs. of seawater.
That translates to 337,349.91552 tons, but let's just round it to 337,350 tons.
Given the fact that the MSC Irina has a gross weight of 233,328 tons. Since it can carry 100k tons of cargo, these numbers fit almost perfectly.
Let me be clear, the ship can go below 40ft underwater and still be fine. Now, obviously, at a certain point it will sink, but a few feet is no big deal.
Lets say there was an additional 25,000 tons of weight or force pushing the ship down. This would only cause it to sink and displace an additional 3ft of water.
Please, learn from your mistakes. When someone is trying to pass their knowledge on to you, be thankful and accept it with some gratitude.
You forgot to mention that the Indianapolis delivered the components for the atomic bomb ending World War II
This list is inaccurate. Off the top of my head, it is missing the Bismarck at 4,572 meters, the Yorktown at 5,075 meters, and probably others. Terrible research skills.
Why not read the description? This is only 7 of the deepest shipwrecks not the ONLY deepest shipwrecks. 🙄
@@arielx31 You may need to reread the description.
@Top_Jimmy I read it. Still doesn't change the fact that these are still 7 of the deepest shipwrecks in recorded history. All of you bring mad because they left out a few is dumb. They can literally make more videos and add more and more as they go along.
@@arielx31 The 7 "Deepest" means just that. If you are going to say "The 7 Deepest" then that is what should be included, no more no less. This is not the first time this channel has made such inaccurate statements.
@Top_Jimmy I mean they ARE some of the deepest lmao. It's not a lie. And I'm not do damn nitpicky over titles like you. I just watch videos and enjoy it. It's still putting info out there.
What about the german Battleship Bismarck? Her Wreck lies in a depth of 4.800 Meters.
This puzzled me as well. This channel needs to do more research
Nazi that coming
Uss Roberts is at 6.500 meters
@@bigupyourselfOkay, but Titanic is not american ship, it's the english🤷🏻♂️
And 15k deep
Rio Grande was sunk in 1944, not 1996. It was found in 1996.
there should be 8 on here, the ship left out is the German Battleship Bismarck
Yea your right
Fun fact: the wreck of the bismark is actually not upside down even though it sank by captize
The kms bismarck should have been on this list it’s deeper than the titanic is
What about SS El Faro, which was a roll-on/roll-off container ship that sank during Hurricane Joaquin in 2015? It lies at 15,000 feet (4,600 meters) at the bottom in the Atlantic about 35 nautical miles from Crooked Island
What about the Bismarck?
aprox 4790 meters
He's Well Safe & Preserved Forever 😃
missed it out, it's only the most famous WW2 battleship - sh1t video
Girls cried- celine dion, my heart will go on
Men cried- Sabaton, Bismarck
@@SteveJones-uf9hs famous for being overated, of no real use, a waste of resources and every other navy given the exact same spec and resources would have made a better ship.
the Bismarck is a demostration of the folly and lack of precision in German thinking and production
While the description clears things up, the title is misleading, as these are not _the_ 7 deepest shipwrecks, like the title implies, just 7 _of the_ deepest.
3:51 The SS Rio Grande was lost on January 4, 1944, not in 1996, lol
Bismarck has left the chat
USS Hornet (CV-8) famous for launching the Doolittle Raid. The ship lies at a depth of 5400m.
And of course, Battleship Bismarck: 4800 m.
There are a lot of factual errors in this video. I doubt the SS Rio Grande was sunk vy US warships in 1995 as it was a German blockade runner and I pretty sure the Germans have not been at war with US, Uk or their allies since end of WWII in1945. USS Samuel Roberts was a destroyer or destroyer escort rather than a battleship like the USS New Jersey
2:41 "Sir Face" 🫡
Sir Face will be remembered for eternity. R.I.P 😞
@MrShipBuff
Sir Face leaves behind his two children (his eyes). Now they are two Eyes without a Face (father).
😳
What about the German battleship Bismarck?
I was on all of these ships.
No tf you weren't, You were on your phone sitting behind a screen.
@@DannyWatson-oo1yy What gave me away Danny?
Why is the sinking date from SS Grande blurred?
its scary to think about all the things that has been sunk, destoryed or even fell into the ocean and we will never find it
Why is it scary
@@justwar76bc once it reaches the lowest seabed of the dark dark ocean, it will never come back or be discovered but just either buried in the sand or getting made as by some undiscovered sea creature’s home
The amount of ships still missing from ww2 is insane, a number of more famous ships are still missing to this day
Great video. But where is The german ship The bismack?
Rio Grande sunk in 44 not 1996
The picture showed a Liberty ship not a German blockaderunner
Right? I immediately stopped and knew this had to be propaganda. 1996 is not the same as 1944. 1944 German’s were Nazis sinking our ships for a decade/Lusitania.
Shipwreck for Humans = New home for marine animals
what about bismark
The Titanic was actually lost on 15 April 1912, not the 14th as you have it listed.
That's because they got confused with Titanic striking the iceberg at 11:40 PM on the 14th, but since the sinking took 2 hours and 40 minutes, the ship fully sank at 2:20 AM on the 15th.
@@MrShipBuff Yes, I know.
Although sunk by the US Navy for test purposes, the USS America CV-66 is at a depth of 16,800 feet (5,120 meters).
The USS Samuel *B Roberts* is a Destroyer Escort, a *tiny* ship in comparison to a Battleship.
That's a common misconception Sammy B only looked like a D.E. it's record against the Japanese clearly show it was really a Battleship.
@@Unhinged29 And it's common because it's a fact.
It might've fought *like* a battleship against the IJN, but that does *not* make it one.
If everyone used that same logic, the Yamato's record against the USN would make it a frigate or a PT boat.
Do you see how fallible that logic is?
The Samuel B Roberts *is* a destroyer escort, whether you like it or not.
@@MrShipBuff It was a joke, we all know that it was really a D.E.
@@Unhinged29 Mb
How about The Bismack?
Akagi and Kagi are around 18,000 feet. I believe they were found in 2019.
I like her voice
At around 5:32 you call the ship a "battleship." It's not a battleship! It's a destroyer!
Not even as large as a destroyer. The Samuel B Roberts was a destroyer escort. The Johnston was a destroyer, and the Sammy B was approx. 70ft 6in shorter and 750 tons lighter.
The Samuel B Roberts was said to have "Fought like a battleship".
Didn't the Indianapolis carry the atom bomb
Some random fishing boat in the bottom of Mariana trench: don't mind me I'm chillin 🗿
The Samuel B Roberts was NOT a Battleship! It was a Destroyer Escort, one of the smallest combatant ships that went against the Japanese super battleship Yamato and other battleships and cruisers along with ships like the USS Johnston.
The statement was She fought like a battleship not that she was one.
At 5:53 it's called "the destroyer escort that fought like a battleship". I think they made it pretty clear that the Samuel B Roberts is a destroyer escort and not a battleship.
@@knickohr01 I think I know why they are all feverishly correcting her over every little thing. Oh, well, I gave the vid a like. XD
Pay attention, dude.
She literally called the destroyer escort a battleship at 5:35, she was wrong on that one but right with the quote
You forgot about the battleship Bismarck, it's deeper than the titanic, your not accurate. Ballard found that one as well
Why didn't the Bismarck get a mention?
Probably because of who built it
Sabaton Immortalized Him.
Video title is misleading because they are talking about deepest wrecks from which salvage was recovered, if I understood correctly.
Thought this was BMO narrating for a sec. Great vid tho
What research was done to conclude this list? It’s horribly inaccurate. Right off the bat I know USS Wasp(American Carrier) was discovered about 14,000 feet deep. The German battleship Bismarck was discovered around 15,000. USS Hornet(American carrier) is over 17,000 feet deep. And 3 carriers sunk at the battle of midway (IJN Kaga, IJN Akagi, and USS Yorktown are close to 18,000 feet down. Those are just the ones that came to mind I’m sure there are many more. Wonder if this list was made just to include Titanic during the submersible controversy.
KMS Bismarck is actually closer to 16,000 at 15,750 feet
Here you go )
I loved the Titanic😢😢😮😮😓😥😥😓😭😭😱😱😰😰😨😨
Titanic is dead
How is it all 5 of the ships shown deeper than Titanic all have way clearer and brighter pictures?
The area where the Titanic lies is in what's called the Western Boundary Undercurrent! It's an active area where there are a lot of eddie's and ripples which create a constant and active sediment in the debris-field where the Titanic lies.
The water in that part of the Northern Atlantic is apparently also replete with iron-eating bacteria that "eats" a few dozen pounds of iron a month! Some have estimated that the Titanic will be unrecognizable by 2030, but I find that to be ridiculous. It's deteriorating fast, but not that fast!
Maybe because of the amount of years the titanic went down and because the are is very dark
@@semoneg2826 I don't think years it's been sitting has anything to do with it. The only thing I can come up with is water temperature? Because these ships that are deeper would also be sitting in, theoretically, the same pitch black. It's just really strange that they can take the same 8k cameras down to these ships, and the deeper ones get crystal clear images, while it looks like they took pictures of Titanic with a potato.
@@eugeneeasthon5906agine that the whole Titanic discovery thing was a fraud, created to fool the Russians during the cold war of the 1980s, boasting that they had highly advanced submersibles that could go so deep but in reality they haven't found her at all...
Imagine if it was all made up and what we really see is a scaled model in a deep water tank and under water sound stages for the interiors!
Personally I question these submersibles simply in the design of a metal sphere..
A sphere is the best shape they say because pressure is equal on all areas...
But it's impossible to have any input device in to a sphere that input connection into the sphere being a weak point when it comes to sea pressure they say is 6000 Ib per square inch..
Imagine taking the Eiffel Tower, turning it upside down and placing it on your toe lol
Thats what the pressure has been described as!!
Drilling any hole for power cable connections into a metal ball will always be the a danger point, because of possible leaks, which would cause instant implosion..a ball has no flat surface for anything to sit flush without being sealed..like I say at that depth I can't see any seal being adequate!
Hence why the navy submarines have nothing on the outside at all not even port holes!
I work with hydrolics and know about pressures seals and leaks!!
I just cannot see how these submersibles truely work in that depth!
@@perrysaker-ee1gq I'd be intrigued by this theory if those OceanGate dipshits didn't have a handful of successful dives before the implosion. They were strictly for tourism profit. I think, if they had put even a few minutes of actual research into building their sub, other companies would have jumped on this tour, and anyone would eventually have been able to get on one of these trips.
The Samuel B. Roberts was not a battleship. It was a destroyer escort
She said that in the video. "A destroyer escort that fought LIKE a battleship."
@@thesmackdragon... AFTER first calling it a battleship.
pay attention
Named after the great state of Samuel B Roberts
These ships have nothing on me. Cause my whole life my mom told me I was IN DEEP SHIT
The caption of the Rio Grande is inaccurate the illustration is of a liberty ship of the same name. She was scuttled when confronted by two US warships on 4 January 1944 having set of from Japanese held suribaya in autumn 1943 in 2018 many rubber bales were washing ashore with markings of Japanese occupied Malay and Vietnamese plantations and it's believed that the Philippine cobalt has been salvaged and probably much of the copper and tin. Indeed the blockade runners whilst interesting were a testament to how weak the axis was with ships having to run the gauntlet all the way from Indonesia to France and whilst the value of the tonnage was much greater than what was shipped by the allies on the whole it was pathetic in contrast. She was part of a flotilla of five and only one reached France in the last attempt to use surface ships for blockade running. The runners would leave France and Japanese held south east Asia in the autumn in radio silence and U boats were banned from attacking lone unidentified ships in case of striking one which did happen with the loss of the speybank. They would only radio in distress as the Rio Grande attempted to do but was jammed. There are interesting websites and books on the topic of the blockade runners also Japan refused to commit any ships of its own which caused annoyance to Germany and Italy. The cobalt was used in lathe and milling machine bits and aero engine alloys
I know what actually happened to the Titanic
😳😳
I’m supprised the kms Bismarck wasn’t on there
Fitting the Sammy and Johnston are together that deep. Must read Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors.
Its not a rescue effort its a salvage effort...
This video makes me wish TH-cam still showed the like/dislike ratio
Also the date of sinking of SS Rio Grande was most certainly not in 1996...try 1944 maybe
i miss titanic😢
I miss the titanic
now the samuel would be a great movie to make starring seth rollins
Philippines has a lot of shipwrecks? 😳 And the deepest is there too. Wow.
Samuel Roberts was discovered at about 21,500 feet. The deepest part of the Philippine Sea is 34,500 feet. Just avoid swimming there, sir.
I used to live just 500 meters from the Manila Bay in the capital city and I used to swim and fish there during my early years. Average depth is only about 55 feet.
That was the famous bay where the US Fleet, commanded by Admiral Dewey, sank the Spanish fleet during the Spanish-American war in 1898.
The Philippine Trench crosses the bottom of the Philippine Sea, and it's either the second or third deepest ocean trench on Earth.
Forgot Bismarck Yorktown and other carriers from midway battle.
Shame you didn't mention that the two deepest wrecks here were discovered by the same person - Victor Vescovo. Guy is amazing at this - he's a crazy guy, having summited the highest peaks on seven continents and the deepest parts of the ocean. There's an amazing video around documenting how he developed his submersible.
No mention of the Bismark?
hi, you have forgotten the uss yorktown cv5, sunk in the battle of midway,, but i like your voice,
Don't forget Midway's carriers (Yorktown, Akagi, Kaga) They are even deeper than Titanic
Sammy B definitely isnt a battleship 😂😂
I love how all these videos, they always have to use clips of the movie titanic for any footage of the ship
I wonder how many rich people were on those ships that sank. I'm sure they traveled with their wealth. 🤨🤔🕵️
The Sanuel Roberts was a destroyer, not a battleship.
Man im Just chilling with da britannic in the kea channel.
Oh so I guess you never heard of the Bismarck cos I certainly know that ship should be on the list so I think you should go back and do your list again and I think think also the Yamato as well oh and I forgot the MV Derbyshire so go back and do the list again
Yamato is only like 340 metres down.
The description literally said that there's many deep shipwrecks. This is only addressing 7. 😐
@@martinjanosik3804 1120 feet
They actually also purposely sink ships once they retire. They strip them down, clean them really well, and then sink them so they can become coral for fish and other species in the ocean.
Oh I always thought they were polluting the ocean
the USS Oriskany the Great Carrier Reef
True, but they don't sink them that deep. Many are accessible by divers.
Why is the date of the sinking of the SS Rio Grande blurred out at the 3:55 mark in the video? It is not like it is some "secret" about the day it was sunk, just like the day the USS Indianapolis was sank.
Your number 1 wreck should be read as “Samuel B Roberts”. A destroyer escort that fought like a battleship
You forgot Bismarck
How could you miss the Bizmark.
ffs Bismark
Grabe,The Philippine trench is the graveyard of many battle ships & passenger vessels 😳
Hey, this list is missing the Bismark. It's in 15,XXX feet of water and went down in April of 1941
I've never heard of the SS RIO GRANDE. The only other time I've ever heard that name anywhere else. I'm curious.
WHERES BISMARCK,BISMARCK HAS TO BE IN THIS TOP
we have only explored about 5% of the oceans. we most definitely know more about space
The Roberts was a destroyer, not a battleship.
By reading the comments, I'm surprised NOBODY has mentioned the Bis.............
WE GET IT!
😆😆. No kidding
There's a shipwreck *deeper* than the USS Johnston? Well I'll be damned...
USS Samuel B Roberts 22,621
There are probably more. USS Gambier Bay and USS Hoel were sunk in the same battle and have yet to be found. The Japanese also lost 2 cruisers in the area which also have yet to be found. The IJN Suzuya is suspected of lying a few thousand feet deeper but hasn't been found to confirm that.
You forgot ss bismarck 4,791m
USS Yorktown 16,650 ft deep
The Samual B. Roberts was a destroyer escort, NOT a battleship!
The "Unsinkable Hood" was sunk by the "Unsinkable Bismark" which was sunk four days later There is no such thing as an "Unsinkable" ship
5:33 ITS NOT A BATTLESHIP
Why did you blur out the date lost for the Rio Grande?
I guess they don’t have anybody to correct them when they make mistakes
You forgot the ss el faro.
What about the Bismarck, thats in quite deep water too and in slightly deeper water than the titanic
The Indianapolis was sunk just after it had delivered the bomb.
components for Little Boy
The titanic is the most popular shipwreck talked about I think
Well sometimes terminology isnt right, but still good informative video. I just cant be silent when someone calls a Destroyer a Battleship. Warship is more fitting for a ship desingh for war
What about KMS Bismarck?
Bismarck
The icegurg was the cover up story for the Titanic... Js.
What about Bismarck and Yamato?
