Before the war, Britannica was meant to be a passenger liner, hence RMS Britannic, but when she was finished, she was repurpised as a hospital ship, hence HMHS, had it not sunk, it would return to RMS
I'm sure to the uninitiated and mentality of that time period if you never heard a sound like that (especially at night) from a few of those ships you'd think it was the second coming of christ after you changed your trousers...
Most of them as devout Christians regularly visited churches and thus were familiar with the the sound of large church organs. Not the same but certainly similar so that the sound of whistles wasn't as alien to them.
I think they're meant to sound intimidating by design since ocean liners are such large and menacing creations. Plus, some of these recordings are crap.
Deutschland and Viktoria Luise are the same ship - how can their horn(s) sound so differently? What are the sources for these recordings? Anyway, they all sound superb!
Those microphones are a hundred years old And since they were near the ship it was so loud it’s distorted, Good audio quality. Loud sound And it has to be loud because the whistles would be useless if quiet
-_- I hate that people still think that the fourth funnel had no purpose. Yes, it was used to attract looks. But it was used for ventilation for the kitchen ( and a major vent for many passenger spaces ) and it vented out smoke from the first class smoking room
Actually, she was not she never made it to being a passenger liner after being sunk as a hospital ship also, those photos of RMS Britannic were photoshopped
@@MaddoxsLaundromatAdventures She never made a crossing, but I’m pretty sure she was completely fitted out in her RMS liveries before being called upon as a hospital ship for the failing Gallipoli campaign
Mauritania sounding like a horror ship in WWI while Olympic was the horror ship, at least to the U-boat.
Actually it was the Lusitania that was sunk by a u-boat not the Olympic

Its amazing how you found the whistles for all 4 funneled liners. I never thought recordings of the Arundel and Windsor Castle’s whistles even existed
They didn’t - a lot of these are just random whistle sounds.
Those 2 ships never existed

3:48 just WOW.
Great Eastern originally had a whopping 5 funnel.. But they scrapped one of them
Was it the one that became the world's first (unintentional) ship-launched missile on Great Eastern's maiden voyage?
3:27 is not RMS BRITANNIC is HMHS BRITANNIC HIS MAJESTY HOSPITAL SHIP
Britannic was originally RMS

Great Easterns my favorite.
Great Eastern breaks my eardrums the best
At first I thought they had left out 'Britannic' since she wasn't grouped with her sister ships 'Olympic' and 'Titanic'.
I like how the olympic horn sounds like the horn sound in build a ship to survivor island
I think the horn from build a ship IS the olympic horn.
@Kodisstuffyes. Yes it is.
@@Daisy_MayLemon-IceCubePenny thought so.

Why does lusitania sound like cap arcona?
bro when lusitania is born, it starts with a different sound
I Like the Britannic horn 👍🏻
these sound like they're straight out of horror films and/or horror games

Why does Aquitania sound like a vehicle revving?
Those microphones are a hundred years old
And since they were near the ship it was so loud it’s distorted,
Good audio quality.
Loud sound
And it has to be loud because the whistles would be useless if quiet
Incredible Doom.
No one talking abt that Aquitanias Horn Breaks Sound Barriers?
Because the footage of aquitania's whistle changed as it was filmed on camera
Just so u know the great eastern actually had 5 funnels and broke the record for the first ship to have 5 funnels
Today they don’t make ships with that many funnels anymore. They only make them with only one funnel or none.
Yea it's because they don't need like 5 or 5 steam stacks
what's up with the weird pitch changes for Aquitania?
Transition
why is the Aquitania whistle so long
Cool video
What happened in 3:02 😅😅
Rms olympic horn looks like The Roblox Titanic
Was RMS Olympic supposed to sound like that
Why Aquitainia Horn sounds weird it is like a black hole
I thought great eastern had 5
Great eastern has 5 funnels
Ngl Great Eastern Sounds like a Steam Loco
The First one got me dying
Edit:the first one is a asmr
how does it get you laughing that doesnt even make sense
Mauritania sound so menucing
great eastern sounds like a steam train ngl
i think it’s whistle was used in trainz but idk
@@roberwalmsley6927why would a boat horn be in a train game
I have no idea
I just heard in trainz
guys what happened to aquitainia
didn’t the SS great eastern have 5?
Yes but one was removed in a later refit
Actually one of them flew off after an explosion in the main engine room
Fun fact: great eastern actually has 5 funnels not 4
One of them flew off when the vessel exploded
Ahh my eats. Great eastern
Why are my Olympic sun's more different compared to Titanic's whistle
I like great eastern horn
Omg the olympic hron is roblox titanic.

Also Titanic (in my opinion) sounds more like a male but I do know that the titanic is a female
@@ZiggyOrtega ALL Ships are female. bzw. they have Female Names.
IDK why but its so :-D

RMS aquitania sounds weird and plus sounds long to very long
the Titanic had 3 funnels, the fourth one was fake
