Hey there, everyone. Although the Baron Gautch did sink, i thought i'd add my own story to it it. Hope you like it. Also, thank you all sooo much for 2.2K subscribers! :D Love you all!
The captain felt really bad and became depressed. He went down into the ship and ordered all of the watertight doors opened so he wouldn’t have to live so long with the embarrassing shame of running rhe ship into a giant rock. He kept hitting himself in the head like Chris Farley in an snl routine saying “I’m so stupid!” over and over. He hit his head against a bulkhead so hard he passed out. The passengers kept chanting “the captain’s a moron” and then they started diving off the poop deck and straight into the propeller to kill themselves. Narwhals swam close by the wreck hoping to spear some babies but everyone was chopped into such small pieces by the propeller that they couldn’t be skewered onto their giant narwhal spears. Even though the ship sank in only 5 feet of water it collapsed under the weight of it’s own shame.
SS Baron Gautch in real life sank from hitting a mine and sank in 5 - 7 minutes with 147 people dying. I know this was your own story on it, but just in case others really wanted to know.
I just found your channel and have already watched all of your videos! They're all great and I loved the Mauretania one. What game do you use to make the videos?
@@Shipster1912 u downloaded one of alex beauty’s ships and loaded the rar file then put it in your rar file folder and clicked for vehicle simulator and then clicked the ship name and pasted it in your vheichles folder and then went in the game and used the ship. P.S. I am not allowed to download from Alex beauty’s website.
If he had a instagram or a twitter I would send him drawings of my theorized wreck of whatever ship I watch sinking (i do have very good talent at drawing please believe me)
The SS Baron Gautsch didn't collide with rocks off the coast of Germany. It hit a mine off the coast of Croatia in the Adriatic while carrying refugees from Bosnia. Navigation of the ship was left to an inexperienced officer who sailed too far north into the minefield. The captain was asleep as he actually handed control of the ship to his first officer. That first officer left the bridge without the captains knowledge to have lunch. I like your videos, but know I don't know which ones are fantasy or which ones are legit :/
Can you make a video where the Titanic and the Lusitania are drag racing and they overheat and spin out and blow up? Maybe one gets sucked into the propeller backwash of the other and caused explosive collisions? You're videos are awesome and I like helping to explain to viewers what's going on. They love it when I do that. Especially the one where the narwhals show up.
Shipster1912 think of the ratings! and the stories I could tell. My hater's heads would implode. Be ready to produce some merchandising. I want a shipster t shirt.
Shipster1912 you might not believe this but this is true. When I was nine (1982) my family visited the Queen Mary and I became infatuated with oceanliners. I asked for books about oceanliners as presents for Christmas and birthdays. I put together cheap Ravel models of the titanic and the Queen Mary. I could quoteyou dimensions of most of the major oceanliners. I wanted to become an oceanographer and find the Titanic. All that changed in 1985. The weird part is that my name is Robert A. Ballard.
The ship hit a mine in 1914. This actually caused her sinking. The Baron Gautsch was an Austro-Hungarian passenger ship that sank in the northern Adriatic Sea on August 13, 1914, during its voyage from Kotor to Trieste, after hitting one of the mines from a minefield laid by the Austro-Hungarian Navy. Whoops! The sinking resulted in the deaths of 127 passengers and crew members. The ship was operated by Österreichischer Lloyd and later the Austro-Hungarian Navy, and was built by the Gourlay Brothers shipyard in Dundee, United Kingdom. 159 people were rescued by the Austro-Hungarian destroyers Csepel, Triglav, and Balaton. May the victims rest in peace.
The captain told some good jokes when he came down to speak to the dinner party. I tried to get the crew to lower the lifeboats but they all wanted to go down with the ship because it was honorable and stuff so jumped in the water and swam for those big ass rocks. I was rescued the next morning by the Carpathia.
hey shispter i got vitrual sailor today and i always wanted to play a ship sim game but they were all laggy. thanks to you i found one thats cant lag on my windows 8 laptop. i cuoldnt have found this game without you. thank you :) ps how do you get the ships to think like you do it.
So your telling me the ship’s bridge was left unattended and they crashed into huge obvious rocks? I’m writing a complaint to the company who owned her! 😂 (I know it’s fictional, it’s just a joke)
Nice video. But I don't understand. The Captian would have had officers on the bridge. Even if the laws about this were not as strict at that time. Also, why did that crew member who spotted the rocks not turn the ship? Instead of possibly saving all the passengers lives, he just goes off to get the Captian.
"No life boats are launched" what? So the officers and crew just forgot all their training and safety protocols? They just stood around with their thumbs up their asses? Lol
