- Human eyes haven’t seen the USS Independence shipwreck, which fought ferocious battles in the Pacific Theater, for 65 years. But now, thanks to the wonders of remotely operated vehicles, it’s coming into view off the coast of San Francisco.

Love that we can see these great ships. Just watched one on the discovery of the USS HORNET (CV-8) sunk in WWII. These are great ships!
And a great, and brave crew.
@@ghostrider-ek8gu Absolutely!!
Yes, finally something interesting on Wired.
Mr BrightSide Sangam film ke gane
She was harassed all of her life and took everything that anyone could throw at her. Rest in peace, Old Girl, you deserve your rest.
Amen
A touching salute!
RIP independence
@@user-td6rb Thems the rules.
William Charles my little brother said you call a boat a “he” after he said that i said “bruh”
They just found the USS Lexington this year as well. Cool stuff.
Dropped a bomb on them TWICE! - that was on of Roger Sterlings best lines. 😄
Giant atomic sponges!!
my family served on that ship
cookiemonsters84 What did your mother or grandmother say about it?
, Now the second USS Independence CVA 62 is being cut apart in Brownsville TX, the third Independence looks like a ship version of an F-117 fighter
Same here Cookiemonster84, flew with VF-6 and O'hare
The USS Independence was a CVL, a "Light Carrier", made from a Cleveland-class light cruiser-hull and was the namesake of the CVL class [ th-cam.com/video/I53dLB8l_uc/w-d-xo.html ]. As with the "Jeep" or "Escort Carriers" (CVE's), the Navy needed all the airplane carriers they could get their hands onto in the Pacific, so they made CVL's from light-cruiser hulls and CVE's from merchant hulls. During WW2, the US Navy had 9 Independence-class light carriers and 2 Saipan-class successor-class light carriers.
Both Saipan class ships were completed after the war. They served during the Korean War and one, the Wright, was converted to a communications ship that served until the early 1970s.
There were quite a few ships by the same name, i.e., the USS Independence, but I assume this one was CVL-22, as I understand CVL-22 was sunk in 1951 out by the Farallon Islands west of San Francisco. I used to fish out by the Farallons and understand there are several shipwrecks below out around those islands. There's also a lot of sharks out there, they took my bait a few times, as did a pinniped!
What a crappy feature - music and narration are like that of a kids show or commerical. Pretty misleading when you consider this ship was involved in the testing of nuclear weapons. Which are perfectlly capable of eradicating humanity, for all who didn't know.
Maby ships are referred as she cause out in the liquid world you have to take care of and defend her cause she's all you got. In some cases till death do us part.
Finally a good video from Wired.
All of that coral makes my skin itch
wow, the radiation turned the crew into white trumpet thingys.
Not quite. A-bomb tests were done without a crew on board.
Antifoul Awl that made me laugh,thanks.
They don't need to know how radioactivity effects rust, that's superfluous. All they need to learn is to not play with radiation.
Imagine serving for your country and they end up end your life in a horrible way 😟
Yeah, tell that to the USS Nevada and the USS Enterprise. Talk about being knifed in the back! And instead of berthing one of them that DESERVED it at Pearl Harbor they bring in the Missouri that had NOTHING to do with the place! They should have scrapped the Missouri and saved the Enterprise!
Amazingly we're tech-enabled enough to find and film these sank vessels decades and scores after they've sank. In other TH-cam videos, you can view the WWII USS Hornet and USS Wasp carriers and the IJN aircraft carrier Akani (sp?).
Why are you not talking about her history and contributions to the war?
What is that instrumental
there is more footage of the ship on the nautilus live youtube channel if you want to see more :)
What kind a WW shipwreck is that? Is it crushed by Megalodon during the war?
Oh yeah it got bombed.
1:21
This is so awesome about history
Music please ...??
Some beautiful sponges
Cool
At 127 you can just make out part of the ships name.
Its actually the classification marking, not the name most likely, Independence was an "Escort Carrier" so it wouldve had either CE-xx or CVE-xx as its identification marking. Fleet carriers were marked with CV-xx
The Independences were light carriers, designation CVL.
It's not the designator; US Navy warships place the name and hull number on the ship, and that's it. No, that's the aft plate with the ships name. :)
@@sgthaddix2604 Independence was a light carrier, CVL. The raised name is seen on her stern in the video. There were no hull markings with letters on CVEs, just their number and raised name on their stern like every other Navy ship. OSCS(SW) USN RET'D 1978-2002
Whats the song named used for the video wired??? At least post it in the description
Y'all should do a dive on the battleship Nevada, its off the Calif coast and its upright
try Hawaiian Coast
It should be the Nevada or the Enterprise that is berthed at Pearl Harbor, NOT the Missouri. Those two DESERVED that berth, the Missouri had nothing to do with the place. Bastards and their politics!
Wouldn’t the water be radioactive or sum??
Hi wired, nifty video. The history in this video.. make my heart ...sink
Ha ha I see what u did there
Keren
From Bikini, Marshall Islands. This makes me happy to see the sea life growing on it, but it damaged so much of our lands and killed a lot of my ancestors.
this ship did very little damaging of your lands- it was a light carrier and its primary role was to launch fighters and anti- submarine patrols
He meant when the native Bikini islanders were taken off their island and resettled on different islands. Then the Navy used the lagoon to test the effects of atomic bombs on various types of ships. The island is uninhabitable due to the contamination from the fallout.
CSM101 The people who lived there I'm assuming.
@@MrChickennugget360 The air groups on CVLs were equipped with Hellcat fighters and Avenger torpedo bombers. They conducted air strikes just like the bigger carriers. President George H.W. Bush flew an Avenger off the USS San Jacinto and was shot down attacking Chichi Jima north of Iwo Jima. He was the only survivor of his 3 man crew and was rescued by a U.S. submarine on lifeguard duty.
What ancestors were killed by the AC Independence? The islands were never a WWII war zone and all people were evacuated prior to the nuclear testing.
Amazing that life grows on it
Сохранность аппарата отличная.Можно было бы поднять.Судя по тому,что на дальномере не хватает запчастей,там уже давно резвятся водолазы-мародёры.
No diver is touching her. She is in nearly 4000 feet of water.
@@patrickmccrann991 ,это CVL-23,USS "Princeton"?
@IgorMint She has not been found yet. I believe she may have gone down in the Philippine Trench. If so, she would be even deeper.
@@patrickmccrann991 ,no understand.
If only they would find cv-2 or cv-1 Lexington and Langley respectively
Hornet and Lex are both down very deep. The Marianas Trench is 37,000 feet deep, for example. But without GPS coordinates (which don't exist) it would take someone like Dr. Ballard to find them. And the Pacific is one, big, friggin' ocean! Something about needles and haystacks ...
The Navy is fully aware of where the Langley is, but she has no significance, she was not an aircraft carrier when she was sunk, she was a glorified cargo ship with half of a flight deck slapped on top.
! ObamaTookMyCat ! But she was the US Navy's first aircraft carrier
Sir Boomsalot She was, but she didn't die a carrier, she died a seaplane tender
The found Lexington yesterday
is it still radioactive?
Nope.
should have been a longer vid
that's amazing
Whats that beat?
That’s the Independence? Considering it wasn’t sunk under combat conditions, couldn’t we bring it up someday? Make it a museum...whats left of it.
As amazing as that would be, it’s doubtful she would survive the ascent to the surface. Her hull is so corroded that she might fall apart in the open air.
this macks me sad :(
Makes*
Does anybody notice the coral is bleached
Robindi the2nd
There are cleaners working down there ???
Not coral, too deep for that. Probably fungus of some kind.
Sponges.
Can we see some German Ships ?
How deep is she.
I thinks its Ss rio
Enterprise was scrapped.
0:58 is that fish alive?
Cool
I know a wreck more interesting then this Yorktown at Midway.
Interest is subjective, you also know the wreck of the Titanic and most would consider that even more interesting.
@@krashd, The Titanic sank because of human ignorance and arrogance. The Yorktown sank while giving everything she had for her sailors and her country. The Yorktown is the better ship.
What's left of it.
Where is Battle Damage??!!
They cancelled it sadly. That was the only reason why I was subbed to this channel.
+Enclave General Exactly, me too.
I believe in the battle of coal sea the flight deck was damaged
dmihm7295 What makes you think that?
@@dmihm7295 She was not in service during the Battle of Coral Sea. Served 1943-1945. Used as a target during atom bomb tests in Bikini Atoll in 1946.
R.I.P
It's the SS Rio Grande
NUKED IT EXCUSE ME?
At 0:55 a plane, Grumman F4F Wildcat
Grumman F6F Hellcat, not Wildcat.
@@patrickmccrann991 Your right!!!
This is fascinating!
If a nuke helps to prevent rust, we should do it with every ship.
It’s because she’s deep, too deep for the bacteria that eats shipwrecks to live. Take a look at the photos of the final resting place of the CVE USS St Lo and see how well she’s been preserved!
Reminds me of the Lexington I went to a trip to the Lexington air craft carrier with my pack 595 and slept there
Very cool! Independence is quite a bit smaller than Lexington as she was originally supposed to be a light cruiser and not a carrier, but they still served together in WWII!
Ever heard of museums?
All that "life" seems pretty dead though uwu
OwO
I wish some one finded ss rio grande
they have found her in the Atlantic at 18, 988 feet down
I wonder would will happen when all that iron evaporates on water by oxidation and what will happen with all the fuel and oil leaks.
Terryfing.

Amerigo vespucci
It looks like dirty socks everywhere
I thought the titanic was the deepest dang
even the USS Indianapolis has the Titanic beat @ 18,044 feet, the main wreck of the USS Johnston has all wrecks beat at 21,180 feet
now the Samuel B. Roberts is the confirmed deepest-served with the Johnston in Phillipine action.
Beautiful
this video is lit
great video as always
What happened to the people in that area, bikini island?
"what happened to those people"
You should see the barnacles growing on them .... Disgusting !
wow
intresting
What about titanic ?
She’s resting in the deep Atlantic
she rests 12,500 feet down in the North Atlantic Ocean
The Titanic sank because of human ignorance and arrogance. The Yorktown sank while giving everything she had for her sailors and her country. The Yorktown is the better ship.
Thats the saratoga cv3 the only ship in the bikini atoll to take 2 nukes before it sank my grandfather was apart of that
Jeffery Klempel The Saratoga is in Bikini atoll, but this is the Independence. It was sunk away from Bikini after the tests, you can even see the ship name in one part of the video...
At 1:23
I'm here because of BrightSide.
I was only 1 or 2 more shitty uploads before I unsubscribed. I needed this, thank you
yg kesini gegara video sisi terang ngumpul
It took a beating and now it can rest in peace.
She, not “it”, she
I see Old girl
What a stupid waste of sinking ships o purpose. Thats hundreds of millions tons of steel that is wasted and could have been recycled. I know this one has radiotion btw.
'murica?
Fuck Yea!
Even small items were left to be ruined. Stupid.
what's the name of those red fish?
Willie, Pete and Mike.
Looks like some sort of catfish to me.
Red Fish
click bait ??
How is this click bait?
...you did well!.....not done good....
He killed the English to make a point. It's called, "EM-FAHH-SIS". The typical killing of the "Queen's English" to tell everyone he's a Yank! I love it!
Shut up dipshit
It’s a it not a she, it can’t Rest In Peace.
How about you keep your disrespectful thoughts and comments to yourself, nobody wants to hear them
Scientists pfft. They can't even predict tomorrows weather.
