Check out the history about "SS Norge", the passenger ship tragedy that happened before Titanic, in year 1904. No one ever heard about that tragedy before Titanic. They found the wreck in 2003, 99 years after it sank. Around 650 people died and the rest were rescued.
The Britannic is also in remarkable condition despite being on her side she's become a large artificial reef for all kinds of marine life that have made the ship their home. Long may she remain in this condition for decades to come.
@@deafyboy86 i agree, she’s in great shape. But i am just tired of seeing these wrecks on their side. Britanic would be so much more impressive if it was upright. can you imagine that. I wish they could right her up.
@@paulwoodford1984I reckon thwt it'd be very costly and that the result would be more tragic than beautiful. If you look at the picture of the side of the Costa Concordia that was on the bottom of the sea you see that its mangled and just incredibly sad to look at and to see that on Brittanic that had been on the bottom of the sea for more than a hundred years the result would probably be even worse than that of the Concordia.
When I was a boy I would stand at the shoreline and dream of somehow turning all of oceans into dry land, and flooding all of the dry land with ocean water, so that I could wander along the sea floor and explore every last shipwreck for as long as I wanted. ‘Twas a long time ago, that, but I still think about that dream often lol. This channel is a close second. Thank you, Mike.
How amazing would it be to see these shipwrecks in person? I'd love to learn how to dive just for that purpose. Thanks for showing less "famous" wrecks,Mike!
Seeing what past humans achieved with their craftsmanship always amazes me - especially when it comes to wooden ships! Time has both hidden and preserved such valiant vessels under the waves, until one day eyes can be laid upon them again 🌊🚢🌊 Impressive video as always! I absolutely enjoy the historic maritime content on this channel - keep up the good work!!🤘🏻
As someone who’s never seen the ocean, let alone be on a boat or diving underwater, seeing cars that you could find on today’s roads as part of a shipwreck is rather fascinating to me. Of all the placed I’d expect to see a Crown Victoria, I didn’t expect it to be here. Update: I went on a boat, it was great.
Excellent video as always, Brady. Thanks for bringing us this amazing content. :) I was surprised to hear that most of the Salem Express' crew did not make it. Usually when I hear of a massive death toll, it seems most of the survivors are crew who abandoned their passengers. While it's terrible that so many died, it's a nice change to hear that the crew did what they could instead of immediately jumping ship. She's a riverboat, not an ocean liner, but would you ever consider making a video about the Sultana? She was a Mississippi steamboat that suffered a boiler explosion and fire due to greed and negligence that cost the lives of hundreds of Civil War veterans. Sadly, her tragic story is not very well known, even in the United States, and it's something that shouldn't be forgotten.
These are amazing. Time capsules frozen in time. And Kudos to preservationists and museums who restore and maintain historic vessels, particularly if they are rare and one of a kind.
Seriously!!! He could read a a dictionary and I would listen! He’s a very talented historian which is what’s needed right now in the present! He makes history fun and interesting! ❤
For our friends outside the US, here NOAA is pronounced "NOAH" Their marine forecasts even pronounce it as such: "This is NOAH weather radio for Michigan's Upper Peninsula" for example. Used to boat around on Lake Superior a lot, so at one time was very familiar with NOAA weather forecasting.
I also caught that when he said it. NOAA is based in Norman, Oklahoma (tornado central). I've never been inside, but just driving by is fascinating to see.
We love your channel! We've tried other similar channels, but they aren't nearly as interesting as yours. You have a special way of delivering all the information in a very riveting manner. Your editing is excellent, and all the detailed drawings you add to the production are amazing. Thank you so much! From Susan and Walt in Michigan USA ❤
Some of the upper fittings and wood paneling of the Portland washed ashore after her loss. A lot of the woodwork was carved up into morbid souvenirs such as letter openers and ornamental plates, all marked as recovered debris from the steamer Portland. There's also been a few expeditions to the wreck in recent years, so there is plenty of video. She also rests in the Stellwagen Bank, which is a protected marine life sanctuary, so it also played a role in her missing status and why she is so well protected. The coordinates of the wreck inside the Bank are still publicly undisclosed as far as I can tell. And thanks for covering the Northwestern! She really doesn't get a lot of attention and I'm glad you're bringing it up.
Just in time to enjoy a late breakfast here with my friend, Mike Brady. I'm enjoying all of your new work, and am always excited to watch and learn something new and unexpected from your videos.
The Zenoba in Cyprus is one of the best wreck dives in the world and the story behind its sinking would make an interesting addition to this video or a future one
I have insomnia most nights, listening to you (I promise this is a good comment!!) I can fall asleep because you are such a pleasure to listen to. When I wake up whether it’s 3am, 8am, etc I go back to what I last remembered and start from there. I have headphones in for up to 8 hours a day and I can’t spend all those hours watching the video portion, I catch some of it. I hold onto videos where I know I need to watch for it to make sense for when I’m not doing anything else. My husband thought a reduction in caffeine has been the answer to me getting more hours of sleep overall. I never reduced my caffeine. Only try one thing at a time. Husband loves that I’m watching educational videos because we talk a lot about your videos (he’s an incredibly handy guy who has considered doing a season up in Bering Sea and a season on a gold team in the Yukon after he leaves his current job. His hobbies are learning more skills so I’m trying as well.
It would be great to have a video where you present the best published books to read about the Titanic, wether technical things or simply a detailed account and explanation of the sinking. Thank you for your amazing work !
hi mike i know i have only been subscribed to your channel for about 2 weeks now but i wanted to reach out and just tell you how much i enjoy your videos :)
Mike you did it once again i don't know how you pick your subject they are all very interesting and informative you have a great way to know what people are interested in and the way you present it is awesome your voice is very enjoyable to listen to you have a gift i wanted to thank you for sharing it with us please keep them coming i can't thank you enough your the man
The civilian deaths always hit hard. Military deaths are tragic, obviously, but at least they’d accepted the risk. But families coming home from vacation with gifts? So sad. And I’m glad that the dive community largely respects these as graves.
I am a med Student and i work with dead bodys often. To dive into a dark wreck and looking down into a pile of skeletal 800 corpses from Barbies to Adults no thanks. I am convinced so many lost souls desprate in the dark will reach for any ligth they see.
shipwrecks have all the fascination of abandoned buildings, plus the alien feeling that you get from being underwater in a hostile (if sometimes tranquil) environment the SS Northwestern wreck reminds me of a site near where I live, the Mallows Bay ship graveyard where 230 wooden steamships - quickly built to help transport supplies to Europe during the First World War - were scuttled as the ships were obsolete and not even worth scrapping; there they still sit, not much more than outlines in the water but a fascinating piece of nearly forgotten local history
Awesome vid! I've been interested in shipwrecks for a while, it's just the way how it makes you think about a torn vessel scrapping away at the seabed was once a thrill for the people on it, having a fresh coat of paint on each voyage.
Absolutely fascinating how the world discoverer is being reclaimed by the land. No doubt, in the next 100 years itll become another island all unto itself. Another fantastic video friend, Mike Brady
Great as always Mike! I have an idea though, what if you'd make a "bizarre wrecks" video? Would be a great way to analyze the HMS Victoria wreck , which is suprisingly still upright, and still has her paint on, since 1893 when she sank.
Why do we love list videos so much? Always interesting, and it's amazing looking back with travel being essentially easy now, that pre-WWI any ship that left port could became lost at any time. Really puts into perspective things like widow's walks and whaling fleets.... kiss your son or husband goodbye to wait 3-5yrs or forever....crazy
Another great video. Your make some of the best content I have ever seen. Even better than big budget production company documentaries in my opinion. Keep it up mike! Love your content!
Another tour de force from you Mike! Well done! There's not much I can add except considering it's record SS Northwestern sounds like one of those ships that never wanted to be built. It sounds crazy, but mariners swear there are such things.
Have you done a video on the Atocha and Margarita? My father wrote a paper for his Spanish class in high school on their loss before they were rediscovered by Mel Fisher. My father said there wasn’t a word in his paper not circled in red for improper grammar, but he still received a passing grade because his teacher found the story so fascinating. That summer the wrecks were found. My dad geeked out. Would love to hear you talk about them, even if it’s an older video!
Very interesting and unique topic. Great work, Mike. I think many presenters here don't venture into new waters, no pun intended, but rather overly dissect the standard fallbacks, like the every strenuous, infinitesimal detail of the Titanic. It is a wonder they don't do a YT on how much turpentine they used when they painted it or something like that. I wonder if you would find great ships of the ancient world, topic worthy. There are fascinating but relatively untold stories such as the engineering behind everything from the Syracusia to Noah's Ark, and even Pharaoh Khufu's ship, or something like that. What do you think?
It would be nice to hear your take on two famous shipwrecks here in Australian waters, those being; the S.S. Yongala - off Townsville, QLD, and that of the Batavia off the West Australian coast on the Abrolhos Islands. The later has to have the most dramatic and horrific tales associated with any maritime event, while the former no less tragic having lost all lives during its foundering. Thanks.
Mike, another great video! You never cease to amaze and educate. Just wanted to send a friendly pronunciation note from a Yank, we pronounce NOAA like "Noah." Keep up the great work!!
Never gets old with the marvels of shipwrecks
They're so beautiful.
They really put the raw and untamable power of the sea into perspective.
Check out the history about "SS Norge", the passenger ship tragedy that happened before Titanic, in year 1904.
No one ever heard about that tragedy before Titanic. They found the wreck in 2003, 99 years after it sank.

@@V3ntilator😂😂 what. Was it a Norwegian ship, given it's name is Norwegian?
@@viktorbirkeland6520Danish ship. ;)
The Britannic is also in remarkable condition despite being on her side she's become a large artificial reef for all kinds of marine life that have made the ship their home.
Long may she remain in this condition for decades to come.
I’m surprised Britannic didn’t show up in this video! I’m glad to see some of the more obscure shipwrecks being shown some love! Great work Mike
Just a shame the bow is in poor condition. Now, if it was able to sink upright, it would truly be a special wreck
I'm surprised the endurance wasn't in this
@@paulwoodford1984The rest of the ship is in very good shape, she is mostly complete which can’t be said for the other Olympic class vessels
@@deafyboy86 i agree, she’s in great shape. But i am just tired of seeing these wrecks on their side. Britanic would be so much more impressive if it was upright. can you imagine that. I wish they could right her up.

That would be mind blowing. And just think of the trillion dollars in gold and treasures that would be exposed.
I hope you watch the show Drain the Oceans
The Northwestern is pure tenacity incarnate. To this day, she refuses to be fully brought under the waves. I can’t help but admire that.
It's so interesting to learn about these lesser known shipwrecks! Thank you, Mike :)

Very interesting to hear about the Portland tragedy, apparently she sank a few miles off the coast of my hometown. No idea she was so well preserved!
The PORTLAND is certainly a mess. Great work as ever on Oceanliner Designs. All the best from Dave and Kathy.
I could listen to you talking about all things ships and ocean liners ALL DAY LONG ❤
Seriously!!! He could read a a dictionary and I would listen! He’s a very talented historian which is what’s needed right now in the present! He makes history fun and interesting! ❤
I have not even watched more then a minute,but I know this is going to be great!
I love shipwrecks
Good report as always sir
What an awesome channel you have!
I’m from Boston and never heard of the Portland. Great upload, Mike! ☕️
Go Sox!😂

Good To see Another Great Video Mike 😊 ❤ ! Love your Content .
My friend, Mike Brady, you are an amazing storyteller! Well, researched well spoken. I hope one day you do an event here in the US.
When people tell me I need to get friends I now say I do have a friend and his name is Mike and he’s a brilliant historian of Ocean Vessels.

Fascinating, Mike. Thanks for presenting these shipwrecks. I am always up for seeing sunken ships.
Long work days are so much more bearable with your videos Mike
Good afternoon, Mr. Brady! I love all the images you have access to through Getty! Really makes it feel as if I'm exploring the wreck
The brevity, and good diction on this capsule is brilliant.
Well done lad found your videos after the titanic disaster but you’ve kept the momentum!

Best ship history channel I know
Please make a video or two covering the shipwrecks of Alaska. There's a lot of history in that subject it would really be great to see!
So good, again. The President Coolidge wreck in Vanuatu is both accessible for divers and starkly beautiful.

Honestly I’m surprised Britannic & Endurance never made it into the video, as their wrecks are fit to be in a museum
The colors on the last one are incredible!
Another tour de force from you Mike! Well done!
There's not much I can add except considering it's record SS Northwestern sounds like one of those ships that never wanted to be built. It sounds crazy, but mariners swear there are such things.
Super good episode!
wow, thanks mike, this was amazing as always!
Keep up the outstanding work!
It's so beautiful to see the new ecosystems that have arisen around and within the wrecks.
Its my friend Mike Brady with some more sick content!
👌
As a french canadian, my compliments on your french pronunciation!
your videos are so palatable i love it

This is incredible! Your channel is amazing
This is so fascinating!
3:31 - Right-hand drive? Unusual for an Italian truck.
I never knew about most of these wrecks thanks for telling us mike
Love this series
Wow the Northwestern sure had a very interesting life, another fascinating video

The ships story’s are sad, but exciting 💙
Love your videos! Greetings from 🇨🇦
Thank you for distinguishing between the Falkland Islands and South America, Mike.
Awesome video, Mike. TYSM for sharing it!
Mike Brady! My best-good boat friend!!!
Loved the video ❤
Very nice video
A very interesting video! Thank you for your hard work and dedication. My husband and I really enjoy your channel 💜
Great video!
Amazing footage real cool
Fabulous work, as always... I get freaked out by seeing fully & partially sunken ships though!
Awesome video Mike
Hi Mike, have you covered or will you cover the SS Montgomery that’s submerged in the Thames? Thanks for all the content!
The discover was a beautiful ship, how sad.. great video and new sub..
It would be nice to hear your take on two famous shipwrecks here in Australian waters, those being; the S.S.

Hey Mike! I know it's not an oceanliner exactly. But out of curiosity, do you have any plans on making a video centred around the Costa Concordia?
You could do videos for a year just on the WW ll wrecks off of NC. Dived on many of them. Beautiful.
Mike, another great video! You never cease to amaze and educate. Just wanted to send a friendly pronunciation note from a Yank, we pronounce NOAA like "Noah." Keep up the great work!!
Nice!
Another shipwreck video and still no Erebus or Terror, they're amazingly well preserved and were lost for many, many years.
Good stuff. 👍
There’s nothing I like more than diving on shipwrecks, and I’ve been in and on quite a few!
Amazing video mate
Congratulations on airliner designs.
