Rescuing The Costa Concordia's Five Thousand Passengers - Part 2 [4K] | Wonder 

One thing is for sure, the Italian Coastguard is highly trained and thanks to them many lives were saved..

This is why the muster station drill is SO IMPORTANT!!

What a honeymoon story huh? Glad they found that couple unscathed. Can’t imagine how scary it must’ve been to wake up & realize you’re in a sunken ship.

My heart sank when they said the little girl died just minutes before the rescuers came. Rest in peace heavenly angel ❤

The Italian coastguard and salvage crews are highly trained while the coastguard helped saved hundreds of lives with superb efficiency and skilled training, the ship salvage team with their lightning quick efficiency superb skills professional training and Advanced equipment/technology managed to avert not only a ecological disaster that would have repercussions for years or centuries to come but the destruction of the islands purity & beauty by removing the toxic chemicals such as oils/fuels from the ships engines for example from the islands waters as much as they can. Kudos to the Italian coastguard & the ship salvage team for doing a superb job

The first part was so good I've been itching for the next one. We've all seen loads of stuff about this but your last video really got between reality and the media spin. Hope this part is of equal quality.

"If the ship had capsized out at sea, the death toll would have been far higher." If it had been out at sea, instead of showing off for a little island, it wouldn't have hit the island.

While I think the old saying “a captain goes down with his ship” a bit…suicidal/extreme. I think he needs to be one of the last ones off! Or at least stay on and help people evacuate as long as humanly possible. Another famous example is the Oceanus. There was a malfunction, the ship taking on water, and the crew basically abandoned the guest!! It was the entertainment group, including a musician and magician who took freaking charge, called a mayday, and organized the rescue!! In fact, when they saw the Captain try and climb into a lift raft, they pulled him out by his belt. The SOB was completely useless. The entertainment crew helped get everyone off, and were one of the last ones off (like 3-4 last one off, followed by the rescue helicopter crews). The musician and magician was in the Helicopter and saw the Oceanus give up her ghost and sink into the sea a few minuets after the last person got off. No one died on the Oceanus because of the entertainment crew, the officers were is hot water on the other hand! Sometimes shit happens, the Captain needs to help and be one of the last people off. On a big ship, with multiple different languages, confusion if bound to happen, and a few lives lost. Sadly. But the Captain NEEDS to help till the last second, be there as long as humanly possible.

The mayor of that island is a real life hero.

Wow! The South Korean couple slept through the impact and all the mayhem, I wish I could sleep like that!!!

at hindsight, the deputy mayor of the island looked responsible, sensible...and makes proper eye contact while speaking... while the captain looked totally irresposible.. you can tell by his decisions.. he did not care before the ship crashed.. nor after it crashed.. innocent people's lives were put into the hands of irresponsible leader.. the captains and pilots should have strict background checks.. and employers should not be spared for employing an alcoholic or extremist..

Just amazing, incredible…to all of you, all you , I cannot thank you enough…take care

Mayer Mario was a good man, and saved lives! Scatinni was horrendous to run away from HIS sunk ship, and ALL those people! So sad about the situation. :(

41:34 This is why one of my life rules is "No cruises. Ever."

I've been patiently waiting for part 2.. ty.. 👏🏾👏🏾

Ive been on about 10 cruises and as a teen/young adult always hated the muster station drills but know I see why they do it even if you have been on a cruise before. I never knew how important it was

What courage and skill and empathy to be a diver to help in such a way. I hope they provide support for these brave divers, it must be dramatic and upsetting no matter what your profession is.

It's sad to lose just one life in a disaster like this. But I am shocked that only 32 people died out of well over 4000 people on board. The captain should have been one of those left in the water, that's for sure. I can't help but think about how much worse this would have been had it happened in colder waters or further from shore. It was a blessing that the Coast Guard and the island people were so diligent and that all these factors came together to save all those people. Damn shame of a mess left behind though.

I also feel sorry for the average crew member who likely didn't get any serious training in handling an evacuation and they barely knew what to do. Something needs to be done about the industry standard practice of using "flags of convenience" so they can get around laws.

The Captain didn't know what the hell he was doing he just wanted to show off his ship and ended up in the rocks

Is there a third video coming? So very interesting the work they were doing to get the vessel out. I would love to see it sailing away 😄

I remember around the time this happened, people were saying the captain was not only fond of smoking a little weed here and there, but that he smoked all the time. When you look at how this boat hit the rocks, I think his whole crew was stoned. Captains of these ships say that if you set out to crash into rocks the auto-pilot will kick in and fight you.

I am so so sorry to hear of the loss of so many good people in this careless disaster. I could never imagine losing one of my sons. It would take the life right out of me. My heart goes out to the families of those who were lost in this absolutely ridiculous tragedy. There's no possible reason why this even happened other than carelessness and ignorance. The captain and his officers who knew better deserved the sentences that they were given. Francesco Schettino was sentenced to 16 years in prison for his role in this disaster along with his desertion of his passengers and he more than deserves that. Btw, Costa Cruises is owned by Carnival Cruises, they should've known better than to hire such an ignorant captain for such a large and expensive cruise ship.

So sad for the lost souls

Yikes... Cappy disembarked early!

What is he talking about, "nothing they could have done to avoid the accident." How about not getting that close to the island?

The captain was sentenced to 16 years.

all those brave rescuers should get medals and awards ⛑🏅🏆

Carnival, et al, plus captain and crew should all be held accountable and responsible. Justice and financial support needs to be applied and enforced.

A South African salvage company called "Xtreme Projects" helped refloat the Costa Concordia... Why was this not mentioned... Nick Sloane seen in the video is the South African (born in Zambia) master mariner who was in charge of the salvage operation... Were there other companies who helped who were also not mentioned I wonder... 🇿🇦

The B-roll seen at 5:24 with water flowing down a set of stairs is in fact NOT even from Costa Concordia. (I remember it being shot onboard one of the Royal Caribbean, and the water seen was due to the ship getting caught in a storm so the water was simply entering from unsecured hatches, doors and other such, collecting and naturally - flowing downwards)

Thanks to US Marshal 🙏👍👍👍👍👍

Just imagine what would have happened of the ship sunk in deeper water, i think the deathtoll would exceed hunderds

You can do a show off with your ship if you have planned it carefully before sailing not when you feel like you want to because of the overconfident what kind of captain is that 🙄. May the victims rest in peace 🙏🏻 ❤

As the narrator is talking about the discovery of the dead body of a 5 year old girl, an ad for a constipation relief product busts in with "WHERE'S THE POOP?!" I get that free apps need ads to support themselves but the complete lack grace or decorum is so utterly parasitic.

OMG, I know that it's a horrible situation, but thank God 90% of the people were saved. Only 32 people lost their lives, and over 4000 people were blessed to be alive. I am so sorry for the families who lost their lives. This was a horrible situation, and the Captain knew he messed up and you left these people. He should have been arrested and stripped from ever being a captain. He has no morals or respect for life. That mayor of that island was a hero and a blessing from God. He saved so many people lives. My prayers are with these families even though it's been 10 years. This will always be in those people minds. 🙏🏾 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Floating death traps. They need to be designed so escape is possible upon capsizing.

How the hell has Carnival come through this so unscathed?

Narcissistic, incompetent, cowardly captain... Just lucky the wind blew it onto a rock shelf.

Man! That accident was so messed up!

5:18 "This (video) footage is not from the disaster at all. It's actually from a swimming pool malfunction on the Carnival Paradise, a different ship altogether, from THREE YEARS PRIOR, in 2009!" -Internet Historian

I personally have never been on one of these floating cesspools , but I know a family that goes on them all of the time,. I think they are nuts.

Glad the captain was held responsible.. He not only put everyone in danger but when things went south he ran away.. he deserves a prison sentence

look up the sinking of the Queen of the North (if you haven't already). my father and step mom (Ryan and Jill, won't give last names obviously) were on it when it went down. both thankfully made it out. but they lost almost all of their belongings, including their truck. if you guys don't believe me i'm their son/step-son (as a lot of people don't believe her when my sister tells the tale/claims it too), ask me anything about them, and i'll (within reason) be able to answer any question you might have. my dad and my step-mom have, among many others, think it was due to the captain having an affair with one of the other crew members and it was due to that negligence that the disaster happened.

41:11 Wow they are boarding the Carnival Triumph to serve the order. I got married on the Triumph in Miami in 2004. It was the best week of mine and my wife's life. Such a great wedding and following 7 day cruise. Man how the cruise industry has changed. First that Norovirus that hit the cruise industry, then the Corona 19 and in between these situations. My sister in law used to work for Crystal Cruises. Just learned today one of their flagships is stuck in Bimini Bahamas just 50 miles from here in Miami because the cruise line owes over $4 million in fuel bills. If the ship enters US waters it will be seized by US authorities until the bill is paid. The cruise line put the passengers on small ferries back to Miami which was a terrible rough 3 hour ride.

It looks very beautiful ship! I am really very much sorry to see ending with this kind of tragedy. I hop someday they make a movie to describe exactly what happened. I am very-very forward to watch that movie.

There's an old saying on the high seas, "The Captain goes down with his ship." This is not a cliché, nor do I think that it's absolute - it highlights the Captain's role in case of an emergency, one in which a goodly Captain makes absolutely certain that he has done everything in his power to see everyone else on his ship to safety before giving any thought to his own survival. In a "perfect" incident, the Captain would make it to safety after every other crewmember and passenger, but if he dies in the attempt to save lives, then that is his legacy, and what better legacy can a human being have?

happy voyage!

Why was the captain and crew so grossly negligent??? I don’t understand 😢😢

That "Captain" should NEVER see the light of day. Leave him in a dark Cell, just how he left those on that Ship!!!

I LOVE ❤️ COSTA CONCORDIA

Expecting an injury a week, makes sense, big project with lost of dangerous work to be done and trying to get it done before it can't be anymore. Ideally you'd have no injuries but that's the ideal you work towards and not the reality you've got to prepare for.

Perhaps the captain just wanted to get a bit in his cabin when he should have been up there minding the situation. I am just not sure why ANYONE even without experience here would get that close to the shore? All this chaos for something so easily avoided. Seeing the ship on its side like that is so eerie and depressing, she is a beauty. I cant even imagine the terror the passengers must have felt too, that is beyond my scope but I try to empathise and think what I would have done.

I heard that not too long after the disaster someone got in the water and stole the ship’s bell. Does anyone know if it was ever recovered?

the coastguards' italian accent lol

Children? How could he do it?😢

RU-vid needs to be renamed commercialsTube.

I don't understand how anyone can die when you are 5 feet from the shore and have a life vest.

All the actions of this ships captain is disgusting 😡 He should have been given life. Sounds to me like the Costa line is just as bad as the captain…… Costa is just as disgusting! So many people scared for life, lives lost and the mental trauma of survivors. 😡😡😡

Dude if your gonna do a series that comes on thursday, might as well do this one on a saturday.

32 absolutely unnecessary casualties.

Imagine how many hundreds of people would have died if the boat sank all the way... it's sad 32 died but it could have been a whole lot worse

All survived and 32 perished

I watched the love boat for 6 seasons, but I never knew about these disasters until now, I can't believe that's the way alot of these companies operate in such a wicked and vicious manner, they've proved one thing obvious without a doubt,is that the live passengers on these ships, aren't nearly as important as the dead president's these victims willfully or woefully spend.

The LifeBoats 😭😭😭😭😭

I'm no expert on this matter but I do reflect on something my wife is constantly reminding of. K.I.S.S. Keep it simple stupid. I would suggest. Placing air blatters in the submerged starboard side of the ship. Regulate the PSI till the ship is upright.

Carnival: The Boeing of the seas.

39:31 All lawyers believe that anything can be fixed with large amounts of cash (most of it for them of course)

Guys…the video of water rushing down the stairs is not Concordia related…FYI.

Carnival Cruise Lines - Join Us for Spoiled Food - Ships Fires & Island- Hopping ...

I'd love to see a documentary where, in a emergency situation, a captain and crew rise to the occasion and do a great job. Maybe that isn't interesting enough to make a documentary or maybe it doesn't happen? Seems like all of these modern ship disasters have crews that are totally incompetent and usually criminally neglectful in their duties.

the 2 Korean couples slept through the impact... can you imagine you on a ship & not hearing alarm and waking up in that... they could of drowned not having a CLUE what happened.....and captain skiteno deserves life in jail for abandoning ship knowing all his was going on.

What makes me particularly angry and confused at the same time is the fact they waited ONE HOUR to start the evacuation! When in fact after hitting the rocks they should have KNOWN the cruise was DONE! Even if they could have somehow stabilized the ship, they clearly would not have been able to continue the cruise in any way. So the IDIOT captain should have started the evacuation procedure immediately! That could have saved most lives, and made it all a lot easier. The fact they ordered the passengers to go back to their cabin is INSANE! Obviously the captain was not properly equipped for his job, and narcissism played a major role in both the cause of the accident and how it played out. But we also need to blame the cruise operator for allowing unqualified personnel on the ship and especially on the bridge. The fact the helmsman didn’t even properly understand English is INSANE! The fact that children in this instance clearly knew better what was going on and what to do says a lot about the failure of adults! We can learn that we should sometimes allow fear to drive us more.

The video of water pouring down the stairs is not from the Costa Concordia.

Great documentary!

That capt'n seriously screwed up....

Quite a sight, watching a small army of U.S. Marshals seizing a Carnival Lines cruise ship. The captain of the Costa Concordia should spend the rest of his life in an Italian prison, and the parent company which owns the vessel, should be forbidden to dock its ships at U.S. ports.

Here come the lawyers!

The Indonesian skipper had a lot to do with this.

The only question i have is who and why he chose that background music. Are we watching how it's made or watching a skate video?

I hope they put that Capt. in prison.

This title is a lie!!! The CC had just over 4200 people on board and over a 1000 of them weren’t passengers, they were crew!

Just to point out the water going down the stairs was not filmed on the costa

Classic Italian.

i wonder why they didnt just leave the ship there, without the oil it wouldnt pose much of a threat to the system anyway and that salvage must have been pretty dang expensive

It this similar to spark?

After new year day

Anyone else plaged with alot of commercials in this channel?

I only have one word for this fiasco: Ridiculous

Meanwhile the people that trust in ships and in the people that run them. I'm thinking about going on a cruise. But with people that takes safety so lightly. When my funds come in . think that I'll just drive.

Good doc overall but the music is ridiculous

Who pays for that enormous recovery of ship?

They had to force Costa by seizing thier ships and make them go to meetings

The cost of Concordia

Mustard Drill ?

need less info about the salvage, and more about the legalese behind all of this and how the very guilty parties were punished.

We are expendable here to the wealthy, greedy and evil. Will you pass the "test" here? Can you? A greedy company and an idiot captain. Great combo! No to cruise ships ever!

Middle of no were that Ship is

Mandatory Internet historian reference

5:24 That is not the Costa Concordia
