From Wikipedia: The loss of Ark Royal proved the end of Sam's shipborne career and he was transferred first to the offices of the Governor in Gibraltar, and then sent back to the United Kingdom, where he saw out the remainder of the war living in a seaman's home in Belfast called the "Home for Sailors". Sam died in 1955.
He's actually sank every ship he's been on. HMS Legion rescued him from when HMS Cossack was torped and the Legion was sunk later in 1942, while HMS Lightning rescued him from the Ark Royal and was also subsequently sunk in 1943. Kraken Unleashed should really be renamed Unsinkable Sam for a laugh one day!
Ok , lot of people didn't understand the kraken: Sam was on board of 5 ships, and 4 were sunk, and the 5th too, this is why "kraken unleashed" of world of warships. I'm sry for my average english.
And after the last ship the british sailors decided it is too dangerous to have a german spy on board of a british vessel. So he was send back to britain where he died old in a home for veteran sailors.
Let's just be honest that cat got so good at surviving it in the sea he knew exactly what to do when a ship was sinking go up and up and tell you see the light and then escape like that That's amazing
The British kept saying "if only you were able help us think out in the ocean, we could make you a sailor. Being German, the cat heard "sink" and well...
There is another sailor cat that got really popular because his documents were posted online. Alot of pets/mascots in the military get documented. They even have a title for sailor cats, mousers.
I know this is late but, I love how the song and the flashbacks combined at 3:35, it is such beautiful memories for either the cat or the sailors. R.I.P.
What a beautiful film. I have a thing for the nautical. I also have a thing for cats. What a serendipitous discovery this film is. Coincidentally, my late cat was named Samuel Smith. Some called him Sam. I don't play games but this posting may nudge me in to doing so. Cheers. (1 year since)
so we all know german cats seek revenge if you sink their bed (bismark) and land them on the water, he managed to get in the ark royal wich launched the torpedo bomber that disabled his bed (bismark)......now that is a gumpy cat!
Ja ja ja , so they adopt Bismarck s pet and took him in the Ark Royal The carrier who sent the fatal torpedo , no wonder Ark Royal was sunk Cat took revenge he was a Kriegmarine
What´s the music in this video please? Brings me to tears. I´m the one who reminded the belfast sailor home page on FB of Unsinkable Sam, btw. Greetings from Germany.
yes it can be bad luck only but its still a cat wich i dont wanna have on a ship :D i already would feel sorry for the cat with all this loud sounds :D
