How Maritime Law Works 

My Goodness, he just explained the bulk of the fucking UNCLOS that I studied one whole semester in college, only in 6 minutes.

I mainly work in bird law.

Laws don't tell us what's right or wrong, they tell us what we will be punished for doing. Those are very different things.

“The distance a cannon can shoot offshore” America - *builds railgun that can effective fire over 200 miles*

Can you make a video of the power of passports? Like you mentioned in the video.

Fun fact: "At Sea" and "In the Air" are both valid places of birth on birth certificates.

Dude seriously, keep making theese, i feel like Im learning way more interesting things here than anywhere else. Keep up the good work and I really hope you get bigger and better!

Man, you've come so far with your videos, on both this and the new channel. You're such an inspiration.

With so many channels dedicating to entertain, it's good to see one channel that teach you something along the way. Please make sure to include your sources on the description of the video. Thank you.

A fun story about my flying experience with KLM (dutch) and DELTA (us); When i was 18 (well over the legal drinking age in the netherlands, wich was 16 at the time.) i went on a KLM flight to new york. When the stewardess came over and i asked for a beer, she told me that i needed to be 21, since we were flying to new york and american law was in effect. I had a great holiday, got on my DELTA flight back to amsterdamn. When the american stewardess came over i was already smirking, and asked for a beer again, and was declined again. She said; ''This is an american plane, and thus american soil, so american law applies''. She disregarded my previous experience, and i had to settle for a coke once again. I knew one of these ladies had to be wrong, now i know who was :D

@wendover production.....its really appreciable the effort u put in the making of the video and the amount of pains u take to simplify it. Kudos

All I know is, if I'm stuck on Mars, my only way back to earth is to become a Space Pirate.

This video is really about the Law of the Sea, and more particularly the rules agreed by by signatories to the UN Law of Sea convention. Maritime Law is related to commercial matters involving ships,cargo, navigation, pollution, crewing, salvage, and passengers, and dates back to ancient times. Different countries are signatories to different sets of rules (e.g Hague Rules, Hamburg Rules, Rotterdam Rules, Hague-Visby Rules) embodying interpretations of in finding liability and fault as well as to the limitation of liability, suitable forums, standing, multi-modal transport, contracts, etc. etc. There are also many other aspects.

Everything is interesting if you make a video about it.

Your videos are very insightful and well researched. Great job! Please keep them coming!

I liked this simply on just how smooth this guy transitions from his video content to selling us on his other videos at the end!

Dude thanks for making such interesting videos.

Michael Bluth could've used this video.

Dude you are so incredibly good at this. Please keep doing it.

I love channels like these, you've got another sub man. Don't stop!

can you make video about the freedom of air?

Young wendover :D!

I have always wondered about this!! Thanks so much for making a video about it. Very detailed and clear.

I came across your channel randomly and I can't stop watching these video one after another.

what a great and informative video! Thank you!

This was very fascinating, thank you. My favourite were the pirate radio stations who floated offshore outside of national jurisdiction and who played music that wasn’t permitted in the country because of all the moral panic.

You make really dull sounding stuff fascinating - well done!

Your videos are so outstanding it’s overwhelming. Thank you

Do one on bird law.

My god the difference between his voice now vs then.

Thanks for making these incredible videos! So well researched and well maid, thank you!

Your videos are informative, professional, and absolutely informative.

I wonder how many babies are wandering around in Panama from their parents being unable to live with them because they were born on cruise ships registered in Panama.

Why do I always find good youtube channels right before bed?

I just started watching your videos. I love them. Thank you for making your channel dude.

Wow, great work Wendover, keep it up! Proud of you.

The principle used is largely one of these two •Jus soli: right by birthplace (like most countries of American continent) •Jus sanguini: right by blood (like Indonesia, India, Iran, Iceland)

"individuals staging a hostile invasion or occupation..." Shows Union troops

Very interesting video! Well done Wendover Productions!

excellent video very helpful I am doing a doctorate in international law in Oxford and maritime law is a weakness of mine thank you for strengthening my knowledge of it

why am i watching this at 3am

"Hey, why are you guys sailing near my coastline? Are you guys spying on us?" "Um... of course not..." I mean, why would you tell an enemy government that you were spying on them by boat?

Thankyou, you consistently make some of the most interesting videos I come across. Great work!

Mr. Wendover, I love your videos. Amazingly interesting , complete, and comprehensive ❤️👍. Thank you

I can tell you put a lot of hard work and research into this video. Keep it up!

Want us to understand even better? Show metric units as well as imperial ones.

Most underated channel on RU-vid. Such informative videos needs more subs and views !

These videos are very informative. Thank you for this channel.

3:15 you make the Netherlands sound so bad, but thinking a little more, it actually kinda is lol

Panama does not have fewer people than Minneapolis. Panama has 3.864 million people. Minneapolis has just over 400 thousand. I think you got million and thousand confused.

Just found your channel. High quality content.

Just watched all your videos. Keep up the good work!

I live in Minneapolis. The population here is about 400,000. It's 2 million though if you include the surrounding area.

"You'rrreee aaaaa crook Captain Hook. Judge won't you throw the book, at the pira..."

Been enjoying lots of your videos. Would love to see a video or two about cruise ships!

Really well done video. I love wendover, I watch almost nothing else.

If everything is tied to the vessel, what happens if I jump overboard in the middle of the Atlantic? Am I in a lawless state then?

space law: *smokes a joint* space cops come aside the vessel after like 12 hrs of correcting orbits from earth

Your videos are really awesome. Probably one of my favorite youtubers

I Love your videos; all the enjoyment from learning something new, without the effort required to seek the information. :)

My entire major in 7 minutes

Lol. It's funny how Homo sapiens want a smaller group of Homo sapiens to tell them what they can and cannot do. It's like S&M.

SOLID CHANNEL. LOVING THESE VIDS. SUBSCRIBED! keep up the good work man your channels gonna take off

Can you please do a vid about airspace and the laws/regulations that apply? Would be a very interesting topic. Love the channel and content, keep up the good work!

So basically if a boat is an extension of a countries territory, pirate raid would be an invasion?

Lol, what the narrator fails to understand is that Martime/admiralty law has been brought onto the land.... (Roman) civil law = admiralty law - law of the sea. (MILITARY law)

Very interesting subject and the video editing is great. You earned a new subscriber today :)

Love your videos man.

0:09 People from Bir Tawil be like: This ain't us, bish

Which 7 passports are more powerful?

Man i love your transport videos! Your channel is just so interesting. Keep it up!

I didn't know Amsterdam was a country, I think it is a city!!

How does jude law work?

love this videos man keep up the good work

Great presentation…a lot of great info in less than 7min.

But what if the mother comes from the Netherlands and the father from Germany??

Can someone just make a few foot wide country with no laws so we can register ships in it.

You deserve more subs. Keep up the great work.

you channel literally caught me more than 12 years of school.

3:04 Surely Panama must have more people than Minneapolis, I'm going to look it up now Edit: Panama has more than 8x bigger population than Minneapolis

What is the name of the old law when war was fair

Very interesting stories. Thanks!

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS DUDE

0:34 You made a typo here--you meant to write "country" but you wrote "county" by mistake.

MARITIME LAW!

Fantastic depicted thanks for sharing

Very interesting. Complicated and filled with some vague and varying parameters, (what codification system isn't) but good to know the basics. Thank you for it

Fyi, "consequentially" isn't a word. You're conflating "consequently" with "sequentially" ;)

Yeah Minneapolis!!!! Sorry, Minneapolis doesn't get to much recognition

Just subscribed. I love this channel :3 keep up the videos

That intro was so good, very professional.

Carnival Dream? I've been on that ship...
