Fascinating Ship Wrecks From Around the World 

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.

Never gets old with the marvels of shipwrecks

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.

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.

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.

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

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!!🤘🏻

It's so interesting to learn about these lesser known shipwrecks! 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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

I have not even watched more then a minute,but I know this is going to be great!

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 ❤

I could listen to you talking about all things ships and ocean liners ALL DAY LONG ❤

Working on the "stay happy" bit but a new video always helps. Great footage. ❤️

As a french canadian, my compliments on your french pronunciation!

What an awesome channel you have!

Fascinating, Mike. Thanks for presenting these shipwrecks. I am always up for seeing sunken ships.

So good, again. The President Coolidge wreck in Vanuatu is both accessible for divers and starkly beautiful.

I love shipwrecks

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

Honestly I’m surprised Britannic & Endurance never made it into the video, as their wrecks are fit to be in a museum

Good To see Another Great Video Mike 😊 ❤ ! Love your Content .

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.

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’m from Boston and never heard of the Portland. Great upload, Mike! ☕️

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

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.

Glad to see the portland get some love. Such an obscure wreck. Great job as always

Love this!

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

Another quality video thanks Mike 🚢

Long work days are so much more bearable with your videos Mike

Another exquisite presentation ! Thank you, Mike !!!!

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.

Thank you, Mike for another extremely informative lesson. Always a real pleasure to view and listen to your presentations.

Love it Mike, another great piece. Keep it up!

Well done lad found your videos after the titanic disaster but you’ve kept the momentum!

Another great video mike 👏

Love this series

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.

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 !

This is so fascinating!

Great video Mike! Shipwrecks like this are fascinating. LOVE your channel.

Good report as always sir

Another amazing video. Thanks for making it and feeding such interesting stuff to us.

Best ship history channel I know

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.

Awesome video, Mike. TYSM for sharing it!

Wow the Northwestern sure had a very interesting life, another fascinating video

Can I just say it always makes me happy to see a new video from you

The colors on the last one are incredible!

Loved the video ❤

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

Although the wreck no longer exists, the SS Catalina would be an interesting subject.

Another good one, Mike!

Nice!

“…lunatic of a vessel…” best description of such an accident prone ship. :-)

It's so beautiful to see the new ecosystems that have arisen around and within the wrecks.

Great video!

Super good episode!

Amazing footage real cool

Very nice video

Awesome video Mike

I never knew about most of these wrecks thanks for telling us mike

The ships story’s are sad, but exciting 💙

Love your videos man, keep em coming!

3:31 - Right-hand drive? Unusual for an Italian truck.

My favorite words in this video thus far: "This Absolute Lunatic of a Vessel!". That had me laughing😆

I've watched several of your videos on ships now and must say that I've learned a lot - nice work. Also have you ever thought about doing a video on the "SS Edmund Fitzgerald?" I'd like to see your take on that ship and it's unfortunate outcome.

This is incredible! Your channel is amazing

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.

Aw, man, the Eastern seems so cool, as does that CGT ferry! Very good showcase of footage!

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

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 :)

wow, thanks mike, this was amazing as always! Keep up the outstanding work!

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!

Mike Brady! My best-good boat friend!!!

Its my friend Mike Brady with some more sick content! 👌

Fabulous work, as always... I get freaked out by seeing fully & partially sunken ships though!

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

Good stuff. 👍

To be honest I am just suprised you didn´t talk about the swedish sailing warship Vasa which sank in 1628 but was rediscorvered in the 1950s and lifted in the 60s because it was in remarkable condition for a ships that is now nearly 400 years old. At this point over 90% of the ship have been rediscovered and the whole ships has been reconstructed and put into a special museum to make sure the wood remains in great condition. It also btw served as the basis for the Pirate of Carribean ship the Flying Dutchman. It really is the most well preserved wreck ever found its really remarkable to see the ship in the musem today. Still a great video though as always.

Fantastic video 😎👍

Hi Mike . Absolutely brilliant channel . Love it 👍❤

Amazing video mate

Terrific

Love your videos! Greetings from 🇨🇦

Still waiting to hear Mike Brady narrated audio books.

your videos are so palatable i love it

Nice 👍

Another shipwreck video and still no Erebus or Terror, they're amazingly well preserved and were lost for many, many years.

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!

There’s nothing I like more than diving on shipwrecks, and I’ve been in and on quite a few!

babe wake up, ocean liner designs posted

U-21 under Otto Hershing sank three other allied warships during the war, including HMS Pathfinder, the first warship sunk by a modern torpedo. Two days before he sank HMS Majestic, he sank another battleship off the Dardanelles, HMS Triumph. The last warship he sank was the French Cruiser Admiral Charner, which was torpedoed off the coast of Syria in 1916 with catastrophic loss of life.

For a well preserved wrck take a lok at The Lady Elizabeth in the Falklands :)
