NO WAY YOU FORGOT AIDA…

They made their money until Titanic sank

Personally i think the oasis class was worthy of a mention, ik that they are massive ships but i think royal caribbean has done an amazing job with making them look good especially against other ships that are near or larger (icon)

Pretty much ALL cruise ships are ugly. They are literally the argument against form follows function.

My guess is that the Californian could have saved few but the end result would still have been horrific.

I hate how she looks from the front, its too flat and blocky

Looks like a ghetto ass pool

This is rubbish - The Californian was over 20 miles away at the time. Carpathia found two likely suspects at the scene of the crime when she arrived there - the Almerian and The Mount Temple. Rostron was very careful to say that Californian was nowhere to be seen until 8 a.m. The captain of the Almerian later said that his ship arrived at the Titanic ice field just after three a.m. and found the Mount Temple already there. Many people on board Mount Temple claim she was within visual range of Titanic as she sank - see Dr. Quitzrau's affidavit in the inquiry transcripts.

How long have you been interested in ships? Your content is very good. Your narration is succinct and knowledgeable. Thank you.

Haha! Love your Icon of the Seas joke upon announcing #1. Says it all. SUMMARY: Oceanliners look better, more elegant than cruise ships because they don't have any (or hardly any) balconies that make many look like hotels on barges. End of story.

Came back here to share. A genuine trans-Pacific Oriana passenger 1965. 🤣 Enjoyed watching again.

Interesting video. Thanks for making it.

My late father who would've been 111 last June 11 had he still been around, sailed on the Aquitania in 1937. God rest your soul, Dad. I miss you and hope we'll see each other some day again.

Getting stuffed into a tin can with 1000's no thanks.

My father came over from the Netherlands on the Aquitania in '49. I have an original post card from the ship. Never knew anything about the ship until I found the postcard and started researching.

I was at the #5 spot, when I got an ad for Norwiegen Lines

“I SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF!”

SS hellenic prince: I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see that

And you can still swim in them.....if you want a swim of fate, that is

Hitler was shown in a scene of Indiana Jones and the last crusade

“The park at evening when the bell has sounded; the Ile de France with all the gulls around it. Oh, how the ghost of you clings! These foolish things remind me of you”.

Wonderful job on the RMS Aquitania another historian did a series on the ship as well but I thought might have had a few details wrong. They were saying that the Aquitania was powered by three engine rooms, turbine for two propellers and two propellers ran off one Triple Expansion engine just like Titanic's .I also ask if the Forth stack was a dummy or was in use. They returned my questions by saying thank you for watching our program .

I wonder what guns Lusitania and Mauretania would have been armed with if the Royal Navy had used them as armed merchant cruisers Then again they would be large targets for the Germans if they were used

Icon of the Seas!

Hello, could you please tell me where to find the two pictures of the Oryoku Maru?

So much wrong info here. The Californian was 20 miles away. Being "shutdown" doesn't mean what you think it does. The boilers are kept running for auxillary systems. Just the main propulsion is shut down. They could have easily stoked the boilers and got running within 30 minutes. Given the ice, I'd estimate it would have taken 1.5 hours to get to the Titanic. 2 hours total. The CQD (SOS was sent at 1215, received 1220. So let's say the Californian starts moving at 1230, they would have arrived to see the Titanic sink into the water and start rescuing those in the water. Theres a good chance they could have saved hundreds, maybe even thousands of people. It also would have given Carpathia a better opportunity to see where to go and update positions.

It’s a shame Francesco Schettino didn’t learn much about the Titanic sinking before becoming a captain. That disaster teaches so much that all captains should know. Titanic Captain Edward John Smith did make some pretty big mistakes that led to the Titanic sinking, but he didn’t just jump into a lifeboat and choose to ignore everyone still on board the ship like Francesco Schettino did. He worked very hard to help as many people as he could safely evacuate the sinking ship and safely lower them in their lifeboats so they could wait for help to arrive and went down with the ship once he felt he had done all he could do. Carpathia Captain Arthur Henry Rostron knew that just because he wasn’t on the Titanic didn’t mean all of those endangered people on board that sinking ship weren’t his responsibility. He quickly sprang into action upon being awakened and informed about the Titanic sinking by his radio operator who came bursting into his cabin unannounced without knocking and worked extremely hard to make the Carpathia go faster than she was built to go to reach the Titanic as quickly as possible in order to save as many people as possible from that terrible disaster. All of that is really the opposite of Costa Concordia Captain Francesco Schettino who ridiculously thought that if he just left the ship, those still on board would no longer be his responsibility.

Imagine what would have happened if the Imperator class had continued under German ownership, without World War I to interrupt it. Hamburg America probably would’ve been the most dominant shipping line for many years

Airships were used way before you mentioned. The Old Tartarian world used these Airships !!!

What 'A Night to Remember' taught me. The Californian were ignorant and just stood there. What actual research taught me. The Californian weren't sure what they were actually witnessing due to the conditions on the night, weren't licenced to travel in ice fields, they did actually try to communicate with the morse lamp, didn't want to risk their own ship to go and investigate and had already sent out ice warnings to all nearby ships and as such wouldn't have expected a ship to go headlong into an icefield. You also have to consider that the ship was at a dead stop for the night and they can't just switch on their engine and go steaming away to the rescue. It takes a while just to produce enough heat from the coal boilers to produce enough steam to get going. A ship that is already producing steam and travelling would actually get there sooner. YES they should have woken the wireless operator, but popular media would have you believe they were the a crew of useless cowards. It is an unfair and ridiculous position in my opinion.

virgin cruise ship: has to turn around when 1 drop of rain falls chad ocean liner: tanks an estimated* 92ft rogue wave and keeps going

15:37 "The North Atlantic is a harsh and jealous sovereign" (David McCallum) it advises you not to keep "flying in the face of God" (Esther Hart)

I hear Cpt Lord was a stern autocrat and this created quite the gulf between him and his officers

I kind of agree with you on Carnival Sunshine but I hate Carnival Destiny and it is my most hated cruise ship out of the entire cruise industry. I am not a huge fan of Norwegian at all.

I actually agree with you on Disney Magic. I am not a huge fan of Disney, but I like the style they put into

I find it iffy too that when reporters asked about his position that night in latitude and longitude coordinates Cpt Lord told them the information would have to come from the company's office

The Californian was in Walter Lord's words a ship "presided over by a cautious captain and an uninspired watch"

"Could She Have Saved the Titanic's Victims?" Yes she was much closer than those 19mi claimed by Cpt Lord. Robert Ballard has determined she was only 10 mi away (at the most). I know, she was surrounded by ice but so was the Carpathia when she made it to the scene and nothing happened to her thanks to a vastly increased number of lookouts. Also it wouldn't have taken long for her to start her engines again it's not like the whole ship was frozen solid because of the ice around her. How did the crew keep warm? Like Rostron Cpt Lord should've changed things around on his ship to accommodate survivors

Do not have an ugly cruise ship

I Sea at age 46 upwards.

i think the ships have charecter

I love Cunard designs new and old

What do you think of Poseidon’s design I know it’s not a cruise ship but it has some cool designs I want your opinion on!

4:35 "Of course," said Aquitania. "I'm bigger, faster, stronger, and more luxurious than all the Olympic class put together."

Much obliged.

Had Titanics officers built a fire on the foredeck even the Californian would have responded.

It's like your finger got cut but it was reattach by doctors

SPLENDID VIDEO.

There is a piece of the Geat Eastern remaining. When she was broken up in Liverpool, her flagstaff (for the ensign at the stern of the ship) is now the flagpole beside the "You'll never walk alone" gates at Liverpool FC's Anfield stadium.
