I don't really remember why we decided to do this, but we've made a video about how we make videos, with a real video wedged in. I'm not sure if you'll like it, but doing it this way was a lot of fun to film.
There was a lot of driving around before we came across ol' Kyle here. But when we saw her, we knew it was all going to be ok.
Shoutout to Jonah Haber for flying out to Newfoundland for our secret special project (yet unreleased). I'm certain what you're cooking up is going to be a masterpiece.
Also - this is our last video of the year so that Franny can have a few days to rest up and take some holiday. The kid works too hard, and doesn't get enough credit for all he does behind the scenes. Merry Italian Christmas Frankie!

​@@GamesFromSpace I love that. I wonder every day how I can make my community more like that. I dream of vandalized driftwood making the news. The biggest struggle for me in building community is helping people be able to take part in it in the first place. It seems like everyone is incredibly busy in our modern world and that's the biggest hurdle. Getting people off drugs and into the community, getting them better jobs so they have time to spend on other people, and building robust community support networks are what I dream of. If we could all strive to be more like Newfoundland, the world would be a better place full of strong, happy people. I dream that one day we can make that a reality the world round.

Sam L, agreed! Local news stations, or journalism in any form really, can share stories that bring neighbors together to address problems and also celebrate the things that bind us together. A graffitied park bench makes headline news in a small town while condos replacing a park does in a major city. They differ in scale but potentially not in how it affects each communitiy member. Holding “Concerts in the Park” could help the situation in both places.

Executive produced by Chris Hadfield, but it's not his fault. Good one. I think you may have missed the importance of this boat/ship and others like it to the very soul of the coastal communities of NFLD. For many communities, there were no roads in and out so these lumbering old freighters were their lifeline. My home of Grand Manan, NB had a converted old WW2 corvette for passengers and freight when I was a kid. Freight and even cars were taken aboard by sling. Passengers had to walk up a gangplank. Our once a year trip on it to go on vacation are some of my fondest memories of my childhood. I believe it made 3 trips a week and could carry a max of 6-8 cars. Now we have 2 ferries in the summer that make a total of 7 trips a day and carry 60-80 cars/trip. It's just not the same anymore. There's no novelty in it. That rotting old hulk of the SS Kyle brought back many memories and even a couple of tears of nostalgia for days long gone. Thank you Rare Earth.

That's what I love about travelling through not so heavily populated areas. You'll always find a story, and in my case. Visiting other Reservations or relatives living in the country of backwater towns in various states and provinces. I find more stories and history from indigenous points of view. Like two months ago, I went to California and went through Wyoming and Utah. Where we marvelled at the idea that European settlers went right through zones where many tribes wouldn't have gone through to get to the West coast. No one probably really thinks of that

This story reminds me of the abandoned ship at Jordan Harbour, Ontario. Clearly visible from the main highway between Toronto and Niagara Falls, it's in a wildly different context than Harbour Grace. But it's still turned into an unintentional landmark. I finally looked it up one day and, sadly, it didn't do battle with any German subs or save any Dutch princesses either. There are probably countless ships like it around the world, each not having done anything significant but still arousing the curiosity of passersby. There's something about abandoned ships from bygone eras that makes us wonder what went on in their heyday, how they got there, and why they've just been sitting in one spot for decades. And even if they were just mundane working vessels, they're still cool. Great channel.

This ship was supposed to be a replica of one of Columbus' ships, if I remember correctly. It served as a restaurant for a while, then a sort of museum. The ship had eventually caught fire, about 15(?) years ago, and has been sitting there in shambles for many years now. Through the grapevine, the money coming in from the museum was not sustainable but the $3M insurance claim started to look good.

I don't know if he's still there, but I worked briefly at the big strip bar at the "west" (south) end of George St. back in 2012 for a week or two, and the cook in the bar's kitchen had been the ship's doctor.............nice guy. Really interesting story and more than worth a vlog from you. There's also a *really* interesting story from Labrador about a German submarine in the strait into Lake Melville where there had been a mutiny by hard-core Nazis who were on a mission to .... weird, but true, arrange some deteurium shipments to Germany from the US.... sorry don't have a link handy I'll come back with it....

We had the chance as a family while out for a drive, to see the Kyle, as you did, but back in the early 70s, sitting right where she currently lies! Somewhere I have a picture of Mum at sea on board, with a few travelling mates, & they are all full of smiles! Mum’s gone now, & part of the earth in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island.

They do their work day in and day out, never really expecting greatness, but they are happy all the same. If they're lucky they get to be remembered by more than just their immediate family.....and I've started to sound like you a little. I don't want to take your job so I'll stop now.

You are always showing us things. Items that are often left over from a time that doesn't exist anymore. Sometimes it what you don't see, that's important. I was listening to a BBC story on the CBC. This guy was hiking the border between Southern Ireland, and Northern Ireland because of Briexit. As he hiked the kilometers, and he seen structures that had been made over the centuries. Some were abandon farm houses, or old walls. Others were thousand year old castles. Where every he looked, the landscape was littered with clues to people's past presence on the land. Then he notice things were missing. During the time of the Troubles, the border between the two Ireland was like a battle front. There towers, concrete bunkers, and fortified border stations. When he looked into it, he found that during the troubles, road were blocked by people putting large craters in them. When a crater was made, people came and filled them. Then the roads were blocked with large concrete blocks, and the people moved the blocks. They made the concrete blocks bigger, and they kept moving them until no one could move them. When the troubles ended, the people of Ireland just remove the artifacts of an ugly past. What they could not move, they buried. If you know were to look you can find some artifacts. Just becase you don't see something, it doesn't mean that there nothing there,

Went to harbour grace a couple summers ago and it was really peaceful. Not quite barren as central but a nice rest from the town.

This seems very different, but also super familiar to my home in Southeast Alaska. The passenger ferry, the harsh landscape, the small towns on the water that depend on fishing, the weird landmarks, the honest, humble people.

In the museems, I have been to in Sweden, a lot of them focus on the everyday working men and women, rather than the grandiose generals and leaders. It is quite interesting actually :) .

Been watching your videos and you got a new sub, I must say that I like the format and how they are done. I wonder on how a video about the 65th infantry regiment would be like, considering they where basically US colonial troops in Korea (and WWII).

wikipedia says: "Kyle is noteworthy for a number of rescues she had participated in; such as the search and recovery of the downed American plane Old Glory in 1927. She had also aided in the rescue of the sailors during the USS Pollux and USS Truxton disaster at Chambers Cove near St. Lawrence on February 18, 1942. "

This Channel is so strange and I love it. I don't know the story behind it, but it seems like it was Chris Hadfield's channel that was overrun by this strange man with a drone who travels the world making video essays on location. It's nuts but they're all super interesting and with amazing production value. Like who are you strange man? Is this your job? Where is Hadfield?

a good take away could be that of all the ships lost at sea. Of all the families broken when fathers didnt return from the frozen unknown. This ship returned to remind us of the sacrifice. To stand erect as the tombstone of those memories forgotten, the pride of a long haul and the fortitude of a community carrying on. Simply, it is the past. The present. And the future.

My dad had a ticket on the Kyle to sail from St Anthony to St John's to "escape" from the outports to the big city, back in the day when sailing was the only way to escape from the outports... back when the family mode of transportation in the winter was by dog team or walk.

I would say. If I were a ship, this would definatly be one of the better ways to go. That place seems pretty serene in the nice weather. Beats being chopped up by scrappers in the coast of bangladesh.

I like this different approach a lot. Regardless, you guys should visit Germany sometime. Not sure if it fits to your concept, since german history is not that rare, but theres so much of it on every corner.

Ich habe lange in Deutschland gewohnt und liebe ich Deutsch Geschichte, aber ich habe vor kurzem in Europa ein Season gemacht. Musst ich erste rund die ganze Welt eine mehr zeit, dann vielleicht Deutschland. Also, tut mir leid fur meine imperfekt Deutsch. Ich probiere nicht oft hier in Kanada und bin ich zu faul fur der Umlaut finden.

+Rare Earth Das ist sehr interessant zu hören! Wo hast du deine Zeit in Deutschland verbracht? Ich nehme an, du hast auf einer Airbase gewohnt? Eure Videos aus Albania, Armenia and Cambodia haben mir sehr gefallen, aber leider bin ich etwas langsam was das anschauen angeht. Ihr macht großartige Arbeit und zeigt sehr interessante, viel zu selten erzählte Geschichten und Perspektiven und das in sehr guter Qualität, ich kann eure Dokumentationen nicht genug loben. Macht weiter so, hört bitte nicht auf! Considering that you probably havent been in germany for ages, your german seems to be quite good actually. I as a german am too lazy for apostrophes as well, so dont worry about Umlaute! Honestly, i prefer these seldomly told, rare stories to german history, which everyone is more or less familiar with. Have fun in Canada and whereever youre heading next, im always thrilled for your coming up videos. Youre living the dream! Btw, ol'Kyle is definitly a ship, not a boat!

They should plant a flower garden on top of it, that’ll bring in more tourists and look really cool, though it wouldn’t be totally natural.

Loved the fact that the video felt more genuine to the actual "thinking process". Often times people get bogged down to the style rather than the actual thoughts behind it. Takes a while to filter condense thoughts into a script :)) and you lose a lot in the compression ^_^ PS. Kudos for not going for something like "The Butterfly Effect". That gets clicks, but the video would've been way too predictable and mind-numbing.
