The SS Oceanic: The Not-So Humble Beginnings of the White Star Line

- Today the White Star Line is remembered purely for the RMS Titanic, but where the line actually began ought to be remembered too. The Oceanic was an incredible little speed demon that set records left and right and began the shipping line we know and love today. I had Covid while making this video so if I sound a bit off, I apologize.

Thanks for watching, stay tuned.
This weeks video took a bit longer to make as I have had Covid throughout its entire production! I hope you enjoyed it and hopefully some day I'll get to tackling the Great Eastern. . .
get well soon. And good luck with the great eastern, she's one hell of a shit show.
get well soon!
@@FUNGUSMAN920 it’s hard for me to a pick a favorite but I’ve always been partial to the SS Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, if not that then the RMS Adriatic II. My email is nauticalstudybusiness@gmail.com if you want to send it that way. thank you so much!
get well soon!
@@NauticalStudy love you
4:36 Nautical study was born in March 10th, 1875 confimed
He sounds good for 146
I love how you replaced titanic with clickbait. You’re one of the most underrated ocean liner enthusiasts and I love watching you. Please never stop doing what you’re doing.
10.03.1875. Okay. So Nautical was born at the 09.03.1875. So he's round about 146 Years old. This explains many...
up next is ss atlantic, the lesson never be naïve to disobey the captains orders OR never be a fool to not wake ur boss up too late
It's ironic since I was making a drawing of the Oceanic ramming the SS City of Chester when this video was uploaded. Probably not Oceanic's proudest moment, but it's cool so whatever. You can see the drawing in my community tab.
Nice to see the RMS Clickbait in your list of WSL ships
As always, great historical information baked with good humor!
You should do a video on the Empress of Ireland!
I second this!
This video is actually genuinely underated.
Absolutely love it with your sense of humor and with your dislike of modern design and art deco I would love absolutely love to see a video of the Normandie. :)
You sound incredibly young for a 146 year-old.
Came here to say this xD
Nice video as always, maybe in the future you could cover the story of the USS Saginaw? She was a paddle steamer that wrecked on some rocks in the Pacific, and her remaining crew decided to take pieces of wood from the ship to build a smaller vessel called a "gig" and used it to survive and be rescued. The gig is still around and is preserved in a museum.
The Great Eastern is one of my top three just because I love how much of a literal dumpster fire it was. A lovable and deeply flawed abomination.
It was too ahead of it’s time. I mean it did lay the transatlantic telegraph cable.
“Change the world and buy a shiping line” time to go to eBay and buy pullmantur
Imma buy CMV
@@goldencannon5822 XD
I love this channel. Very educational and humorous.
I love the White Star Line 😊 they are very kind, and thoughtful of their passengers
Those type of liners are interesting
Hybrid propultion liners
4:15
* SS Principessa Jolanda enters the room *
*A new challenger has appeared!*
Absolutely love your content bud, please don't stop making these videos.
the more this guy finds a way to trash the Great Eastern in nearly every video, the more I want him to make a video about her.
The Great Eastern was far too ridiculously large for the standards of the 1860s and 1870s.
Name a more iconic duo than maritime TH-cam and dunking on the Great Eastern
could you see if you could make one about the Carroll A. Deering or the SS El Faro
"Change the world and buy a shipping line" time to buy RCI
I can assure you, I would much rather be The Great Eastern than me right now
Loved the "CLICKBAIT" word mixed in with the names of ships ending in "ic" that white star line would produce during their existence
And now that I have read comments after I posted my comment I realize I'm not the only guy who pays attention to detail. and in general I will often pause a video mid sentence or wind backwards to read up on something, or have a better look at a picture of something that caught my eye.
F.Y.I.... my wife HATES watching movies at home with me. Too much pausing and rewinding
Hey, I was thinking of the HMAS Sydney as a good video idea, It sunk in WW2 with the deaths of all the crew
Love your work mate!
Quite literally the mother of modern shipbuilding
Lovely video! Sorry to hear about the Covid.
It would be interested to see a video on the German navy,
Anyways, thanks for reading
The jab at Cunard Line 😂
Here at Nautical Study, we have proudly gone (*checks notes*) 00 Videos without bitch-slapping the Great Eastern
Also 00 vide0s without slagging off the RMS Clickbait.
It’s time you did a video on the Great Eastern.
With your hard hitting tone I find it surprising that you passed on the opportunity to hit hard at the U.S. shipping line for launching their flagship ocean liner (SS United States) just as the era of ocean liners was beginning to wind down. Deep sigh.
Do a video on USS Nevada, the ship that survived 2 nuclear bombs.
Epic! One thing tho, isnt it RMS and not SS?
Both could be used on all vessels carrying the RMS prefix :-) In the same way, you can call Titanic SS Titanic and it would still be correct. (just much less cool)
@@Rilhon yeah, and i see you watch this guy too XD
@@Rilhon I don't think Oceanic ever served as a Royal Mail Ship, all the times I've heard her mentioned she's referred to as "SS Oceanic"
@@Rilhon In the case of the Oceanic class, it’s SS.
@@Rilhon No, it's RMS if it carries Royal Mail, aka 'R.oyal M.ail S.hip'.
Could you possibly do a video on the NS Savanah?
I like this😊🎉
EPIK
Could you cover the HMS Victoria disaster?
This guy sounds pretty good for someone born in 1875
These days the only thing you can change if you buy a shipping line is make the ships look nice and not like the horrendous things today
epic new video
Huh, interesting vessel.
Suggestion: SS Californian and her mistakes (idk what to say...)
Pls make a video on Bohn Typhoon
question why have you not posted in a month
Damn the subs are getting 🙂
You should make a video on Shackleton S.S Endurance
Endurance was only a steam yacht, so it carried the rare prefix S.Y. Endurance.
@@Dave_Sisson It wasn't a yacht, tho?? It was 'HMS Endurance'.
HMS*
@@ukaszwalczak1154 Other ships were named after this Endurance such as the Ice Patrol Ship, HMS Endurance that saw action during the Falklands War in 1982. But I'm quite confident that the ship that was crushed in 1915 was never in the navy.
@@Dave_Sisson Fairly certain that the one was a warship.
Never heard of the "white star line" what do they have a line in a star shape white flag?
That’s weird. I can’t find any information on Google about White Star Line’s ship the SS Clickbait
Wait a minute…
I’ll try Yahoo!
Can we get a video on the RMS Traffic?
A eplton Hall vidio
What’s the name of the background music. Thanks
Emperor's Waltz, this version specifically:
th-cam.com/video/foHeA4u8zW8/w-d-xo.html
this is rms oceanic 1870 not ss oceanic 1870
No, it's S.S since it didn't carry Royal Mail or even have a post office-
You were born in 1872?
Lol he was born in 1875
same
First!
One of these days you're going to have to do a video and explain exactly why you like to bash on the Great Eastern so much.
Pepaw nautical
btw i messaged you on discord about the documentary, i haven't got a response.
these people out here saying titainc was the biggest ship pisses me off the Germans launched bigger like 2 weeks after cover that
seems like it would be fitting for you
Do an an
the millennial smugness of this video is insufferable
I'm not a millennial and I only really take _constructive_ criticism into consideration....
