Wow that was very interesting to see, how the water comes in slowly but so powerfully by the end to take it down. Great view with that camera they put on it. Would be so scary In a real sinking ship though.
I was on this ship from 1980 til 1982. The first major cruise that I went on was Unitas. I was in 1st division as a BMSN. We were the Admirals Flagship.
The Radford was the first ship I was ever on. It was only a short tdy for 3 weeks to develop tactics for using the Stinger at night. I remember riding out a bad storm though.
@@CaptOrbit Yep, it took a very long time to achieve negative buoyancy and for water to displace air trapped in the hull, but once it did it went very fast.
Sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost my password. I love any tricks you can give me.
@Miller Zaiden i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Let me just point out how fun it is to watch one of these videos and pretend to be a sarcastic, apathetic security guard looking at a live camera feed, pretending the water will bust through your door just seconds after the camera is under. Go ahead, try it.
@Hi Bye Shut up, idiot. Pretty sure it's not all about you. No one cares about what you say anyways. You're just some punk kid with no decency. get a life.
***** They have this video in one of their research playlists. They're working to make the game realistic, so I guess they wanted to study how ships sink.
***** They're still working on it. They released a 2 hour 40 minute video recently showing their Titanic model sinking in real time, and the video has more than 7 million views. I found it after seeing it on the Facebook news ticker. "Titanic: Honor and Glory" may be released yet.
I watched possibly hundreds of gallons per second pour in through that opening for over 6 minutes before the ship was low enough for the water to come in over the side of the ship. Even though I was watching from safety, it was unsettling. Props to the cameraman for having the stones to stay in one place and film this for the workd to see.
The famous Cunard Liner RMS LUSITANIA that was torpedoed on May 7th 1915 on the southern Irish coast, this video footage is almost like the experience of seawater rushing inside the deck plans and causing big avalanche of waves while the ship is going down fast into the sea. Passengers and Crew on RMS LUSITANIA were all screaming for their lives of survival after the ship was hit by a torpedo and LUSITANIA sunk in just 18 minutes. What a horrible experience on a sunken ship of the first World War.
not pictured: the elderly man kissing his despairing wife, Titanic-style in some stateroom below deck as water rushes in and somber strings play in the background
Jency Villalona Okay, you have to understand I'm not a structural engineer, but... 1) Put a GO PRO on the ship 2) Sink the ship 3) Diver (SCUBA, not sky) swims down to ship, retrieves the GO PRO Et Viola! Actually, the first step should be to buy a Go Pro camera.
***** hah nice catch. I saw what you mean and it initially did look like a person, but judging by the size of the object compared to other debris I'm guessing it's just material from the ship.
If You Were The Camera Dosing off Into Camera Mode... Im Sorry... BUT YOUR DEAD TO ME!!! Get It?! They Break When There Under Water And It Makes Them Dead To Anybody!!
OMG THIS VIDEO MADE ME FREAK OUT N PANIC..THE CREAKING COULDNT TAKE IT THEN THE WATER STARTED WAVEING IN THEN FLOWIN IN THEN IT STARTED CASCADING IN THEN IT STARTED TO SINK OMG I HAD TO STOP THE VIDEO THATS WHEN I FREAKED PANICKED N CRIED how did they manage to go down there to get the video or how did they get it.NICE ♡ THNX
This ship was sunk on purpose. That's why there was a camera on it, to record the process, so that people like us could watch this on RU-vid. This is not something you would want to experience in real life.
Why was this worth posting? Without narration or orientation, it means very little. When you give a US Naval ship's name, it is customary to put in the hull number. In this case it is DD968. This shows it is a regular Destroyer, and the digits confirm which one. "USS Arthur W. Radford DD968" like that. Tell your fans we also do not need the F word. They degrade your post further.
+Michael Dougfir They should recycle that steel and not polute by putting it in the ocean. Saying it makes a place for fish is just way to be lazy and not clean up the trash.
+haywood jeblome Apparently these things attract fishes and coral reefs (As in they help the local fish population), I would imagine all the toxic stuff and garbage been removed before sinking.
Kopronko they are using it to make a artificial reef. Since idiotic humans are destroying them all with pollution. So technically we are all morons for letting it have to come to this
