No shit the ship has been pirated! The captain stated on the previous day that they were told by the chase vessels to slow down. Then they determined that the chase vessels were actually fishermen. Why the hell would fisherman tell a merchant ship to slow down??? I was thinking that was odd and sure enough the next day the pirates take it.
Yup this is all show and no action. They have to call back to the ship that has to call back to HQ to get a reply on a situation that the HQ cant even see or understand. Why send your warship out there without clearly specifying what they can and cant do? I tell you why because no one knows jack shit what the regulations are and they are making shit up as they go.
well there are civilian lives on that ship and most likely they are not British civilians so intervening and getting a civilian killed might cause diplomatic tension.
I'm American, I truly appreciate the efforts that are being made to bring these real life issues to individuals like myself.. otherwise, I and my family would continue to be oblivious from our own loathing ignorance. God Bless and keep each and all involved, safe in His favor, while in the production of this remarkable duty.
Rules of engagement... more like rules of disengagement. Modern war: Oye, you got a license for that Artillery? Is that helmet OSHA certified? Oye, where is your high visibility vest? That's 3 war crimes, and I havn't even checked the trunk, you got anything to say for yourself?
This seems a bit pointless and disorganized. You have a warship to prevent pirating, they should also carry tactical teams capable of retaking a pirated ship below a certain risk level.
Just wasting tax payer money. I am going to get me a boat, sail up to the somali coast and take a ship and I know that the navy is going to do nothing.
Honestly, I wish we could just have cargo vessels to be armed with a minigun or just a couple of machine guns. Doing it this way with helicopters is incredibly inefficient. If you get there before they've boarded the ship, sure you can do something. But in this case, we're paying a bunch of money to have HMS Northumbria down there. The question is, how many pirate attacks do they stop compared to cases like this one where they can't do anything in fear of harm coming to the crew? It'd be much better to just have a few armed people on board the cargo ships, as they'd always be there, ready in case a pirate skiff comes along.
They are discouraged from doing that, but that is the new lucrative market for PMC's or modern day mercenaries. You can find barges that these guys operate from that board civillian ships transiting and function as anti piracy personell with guns onboard during the transit of the corridor, where they then disembark at the end and then return to their barge. But yes, Russians love to shoot first and never respond to questions later :D
@@CMDRSweeper yep it'd be much more efficient if the brits would pay a portion of hiring costs towards these mercenaries rather than doing it this ineffective way.
Exactly, it's sickening to say the least. I've always compared this things to the whole gun law ordeal here in the US. Most people who read this won't agree with the right's decision to keep guns, but this documentary is a good comparison. To put it simple, whether legal, or illegal, it is VERY easy to get a firearm here in the US. Most criminals believe it or not, DO NOT legally purchase firearms, they purchase "ghost guns" which are registered to nobody and are completely untraceable. Sure every now and then some deranged idiot will get a hold of his buddy's legally owned gun and goes and does something stupid, but that is completely inevitable no matter how strict gun laws are. If someone wants to commit a crime with a firearm, they are not going to care about breaking a gun law. And when guns become hard to acquire legally, the prices of the "ghost guns" will SKYROCKET, and that money will go into the hands of the suppliers. MUCH like the merchant ships that are pirated, if schools, office buildings, libraries, places of worship, etc. were able to have ARMED GUARDS IN THEM, the shootings would become less frequent, and those that did happen would have a much greater chance of being diffused with minimum tragedy. An armed nation is a safe nation, back in the day nobody was so willing to rob you or gun down a movie theater, because most of the people in that movie theater would be carrying. The majority of people are too soft to carry these days though. And for those in nations that have very strict gun laws, who claim that the "crime rate is lower because people don't walk around with guns", Yeah you're right, you PROBABLY won't get shot, but you will probably have a cup of acid thrown in your face as an alternative, or be beaten and robbed by some dudes on a moped. And when someone over there decides they wanna shoot something or someone, they are going to go illegally purchase a gun and do so. You all picture the US as a crime ridden country where you are basically guaranteed to be robbed at gunpoint or shot, but that is only because those are the only things the media relays over to you. How often do you see a crime prevented because thankfully somebody was carrying compared to hearing about a shooting or something? Personally, when I have access to a firearm I feel safer than ever, and when I am surrounded by other coherent Americans who value their safety from the deranged and a corrupt government, I am thankful that weapons are so easy to get a hold of. They are the only thing stopping our government from overtaking our freedom, and our streets from being polluted with crime. An American politician who wants to strip us of our guns, is a politician who is OPENLY ADMITTING, that they want more control over the people, and want to strip us of our only defense from them. Fortunately it is impossible for our guns to be taken away, when that day comes when they show up at our door for our guns, and it will, there will be an uprising. The government will not have the assistance of our military, because the military would never turn on our country, and the people will do exactly what the country needs, and overthrow the government. Our laws are extremely outdated, and need to be reformatted according to the countless advances in science and technology over the last hundred years. Sadly, that will not happen with the current Republican and Democratic games that are being played election after election. These power hungry monsters need to be booted from the system, and the people need to take over and reform the government, even if it takes a civil war. Every part of the nation is flawed and people's feelings are preventing anything from being done about it, and when the day comes that it all changes, we are going to be VERY thankful for the second amendment.

Waste billions in tracking down pirates; and then just let them go once you find some as a result of a distress call. Great job! So, letting all of those crew remain as hostages of pirates indefinitely is less dangerous than at least attempting to intervene and save them? Excellent work "Royal Navy".
This is a old doc things have changed , they have armed guards on many freighters now, the Chinese and Russian navies are there and they are not as polite as these guys. This crime is not happening like it used to. Lastly the Pirates all moved to the EU and live on welfare in a No Go Zone mini muslim country now.
Large Private Mega Yachts that go through the Suez Canal are increasingly fitted with anti pirate systems to prevent boarding. Having these systems on merchant vessels would help but then as soon as they were used it would get reported and banned internationally for being cruel.
The big cargo ships do have anti pirate systems. They put up barbed wire all around the perimeter and set up hoses which give out boiling steam from the engine room, all around the perimeter as well. In different documentary, I saw a massive tanker carrying chemicals doing this very thing. They are allowed to do so and they are all armed too.
Good point!! EVERYTHING about that pathetic little one-boat "let's stop all the pirates!" expedition is pathetic. They have thousands of rounds of ammunition but will never hurt a single pirate.
@@ryanharrington6389 Arabic, just Arabic. Yemenis speak Arabic and I believe so do Somalis, so most likely they're Arabic speaking (the fishermen/smugglers/pirates)
I know why there are pirates. Because they are not treated as pirates. When caught, they are healed, fed and dressed. incarcerated with better treatment than their daily life in their country. Discourage other pirates and piracy by immediate kill. No survivors. Leave their carcasses as fish food.
The pirates are just protecting their coastal waters because they took advantage of Somalia when the civil war was going on and they dumped waste in Somali waters.
Can't imagine prison in Kenya being that much fun. Problem is it's almost impossible to convict or even arrest the pirates unless they are actually caught in the act of trying to take a ship.
The pirates who kidnapped the boat, are from Yemen, I figured it from 40:36 , there is a text on the boat it's says "Hadhrami marine", Hadhramaut is a city in Yemen
what's the use of patrol if you can't get back the merchant vessel from pirates! waste of tax payers money and pollution. this is totally useless duty. I can even patrol sea all alone if theirs duty is just to watch pirates take the ship!!!
you'd probably have to kill like 8 people before the game wasn't as fun for the pirates. Or, maybe instead of driving round in an emasculated warship, the resources would be better spent putting a crew of 8 or 10 marines on half the merchant boats while in the gulf. Rules of engagement... shoot on sight.
Ridiculous and a Waste of A lot of money !!! They Should have Totally Stripped Away all Its Contents , including Motors if They Had no means of Towing the Small Skip or Loading It Up on Board and Given it To The Owners Or Families of any Victims to Seek any Monetary Compensation For The Company or Crews Families ???!!!!??? Instead A lot of Money blown , Just To Further Pollute The Ocean !!!
That is infuriating. Only solution that I can see is to treat any vessel with a no-go zone and have armed crews on board with permission to fire on approaching crafts.
"once they're on board its too late, for the safety of the crew..." Because armed pirates are less dangerous than potential friendly fire. When you're aim is more dangerous than enemy gun fire, you need to reconsider whether you are fit for purpose.
Worthless waste of taxpayer money. No country or private security has full jurisdiction to perform military actions on foreign vessels that's why there is not much anyone can do about it. It all comes down to politics. Also keep in mind a lot of these heists are done by the merchant ship owners them self. They insure the cargo and stage the entire thing and claim the insurance money. There is a lot more than meets the eye.
Kalel Kent ... Now that's an interesting statement - about the ship owners doing this themselves. I'm not saying I disagree but I will say, show me something that will convince me (and please, I'm tired of conspiracy theories).
@ Captain Ron -- It takes 2 seconds to google articles about this on the internet but i understand you wanting proof so here are a few links. www.insurancejournal.com/news/international/2016/04/13/405100.htm www.insurancebusinessmag.com/ca/news/marine/shipowner-arrested-for-alleged-fraud-in-pirate-attack-48708.aspx Insurance fraud is big money business and it happens all the time. I was down in St. Thomas where hundreds of boats including multi million dollar top of the line yachts have been left to be sunk by the hurricane that hit that place. The owners are claiming they have no idea where their boats are, but they are all in that harbor and some of those boats are from Florida. People intentionally sailed to the area they knew was going to get hit hard and anchored the boats there. This is not from me this is from the locals that live there and they say this is a very common tactic.
so when did they get boarded? Overnight? Because there were speed boats surrounding it and a mothership and then the mothership is said to be a fishing vessel, where did the speed boats go off too in the first distress call? Didn't anyone think to place a team on the Saldanha since it was a likely target because they tried already and it is a low easy ship to board.
The truth is that the captain doesn't want to stop the pirates. No one with any political power has a desire to solve the problem. Everything you are saying about watching the merchant ship for a while makes sense, which is why they didn't do it. The globalists DON'T WANT to stop Somali pirates.
Sending one navy vessel is the minimum amount the British government has to do, in order to claim "We are doing everything we can!" It's enough to say they're fighting the pirates, but not even 10% of the number of ships that are required. Just a PR stunt. They will most likely never shoot a single pirate.
yeah but that just sends the message that they can do anything they want just because theres 5 pirates. that's not a message you want o send but they are ! and its bs ! a fucking war shit isn't able to fight whats the fucking use then !!!
@@patman0250 they do fight. But they have to pick their moment carefully. They go in when they don't expect it, when they know the hostages are not held at gun point. It's not the ship they want to save. It's the people onboard. And that job will go to a kind of special forces who go in on land.
Why in the "HELL" are you guy's out their.. In all reality you aren't going to get the Pirates until they have the ship.. If you can't go in take it back, Then why!! All you can do is watch people just sail to their eventual death.. And I'm not blaming the crews you are only following orders.. It's the command staff that's got you handcuffed.. It's sad, that wouldn't work in the Malacca Straits.. The Malaysian Special Forces don't play that......
They have to ask prime minster Traitor May if they can attack the pirates but her response is always the same: "I'm SORRY but we simply MUST NOT TREAT PEOPLE OF COLOUR THAT WAY! It's only GIVING IN TO THE POLITICS OF HATE! Permission to free the hostages denied. Try to bring us back another 300 fake refugees man-children if possible - I really want to give them free houses and free money! Cheerio!"
@@BrokeCanadian hahahahahhahaa you're hilarious dude hahaha comment of the day hahahahha I totally agree with you, 100% percent you're right, our leaders are so fuckin DUMB!!! If u jump into someone's backyard you'll get arrested for trespassing if not shot, but if u kidnap an oil tanker worth billions of dollars with its crew and ask for ransom, the brave armed navy seals will watch u through binoculars and make sure that none of the pirates is injured or need help hahahahhaa this world has gone crazy!!!
Emotions took over because they were reduced to mere spectators to a cause they were supposed to stop!!! Now they act like a child throwing a tantrum!😂... a very expensive tantrum that's hazardous to marine life.
Soo. They basically just monitor and watch them pirate vessels? Maybe if the merchant ships where armed then that would not be an issue? Think stupid, think.
You mean shipping companies? How insurance company would benefit from having to pay insurance claims to ship companies? Insurance companies would benefit from setting up private military contractors on board of the ships to prevent piracy. They dont need many pirate attacks to rise the cost of insurance if you though that was their goal.
this is a older documentary, modern day they usually board and retake the ship OR now armed merchant ships even with 1 or two guards defend themselves. and the navy catches the dhow and takes them to the hauge to face charges.
Its time to hire private security easy as pie. Shoot first ask questions later. First you will save in the long run no loosing your cargo. And you take a few more scum out of circulation. No I have no pity for them.
@@tommyarnold4392 Clearly not well enough. Somebody can start a bussiness out of this anti piracy security type company get ex millitary guys and off you go.
So to be clear they are looking to stop pirates, when they find a ship that has been taken over if the pirates say "Go away" they just let them carry on their merry way.. Lol,, I love the politicallycorectards!!!
What i don't undestand is what happens after the pirates boarded the ship... The marines don't attack to not put the ship's crew in danger...but are they following the ship or are they just letting them go ? I mean what happens to thecrew after arriving in somalia ?
you said the fisherman, asked the ship to slow down... lol wtf you think fishermen want a large ship to slow down for??? they going to sell fish to the ship? British are always finding excuses to not get into combat. Sometimes, I think you guys are French. Just run away, already... stop posing as a security ship, when you have no balls. or common sense. Seen the Captain recording himself on a cassette player...lol WTF... its 2018 people. time to update that 8 track players already.
Agreed, I saw a documentary how the chinise and every one else have been comercial fishing for years. Now I can not say they all where Fisher man to feed their family. But people in that part of the world support their family just doing that. That's the flipside of the story. Thx
Not denying this ten years ago. No international fishing ship is going to work pirate waters. No illegal international fishing is going to occur with an international force nearby.
It's just an excuse, atleast that is my opinion. They know that people Believe in it and that Everything is PC now so they know that people will complain if people say that they are obviously not fishermen.
@Brandon Toad: I am a Trump supporter and see the problem dumbass. You took a philosophy class instead of a class that could actually teach you something about logic and science. All you have managed to do is get brain washed by lefty professors and spout your nonsense in a very unrewarding way. You should call your college and demand your money back.
It’s the perfect circle jerk. If pirates are boarded, taken into custody, they are taken to Kenya. From there it’s is a responsibility Kenya detest because there is no money to process The pirates. Money is key. Now, insurance companies and lawyers have a hand in all of it. Now it become a bigger business. Insurance and lawyers are an exemption of the problems for shipping. Ship captains should be given security with the necessary munitions to protect the crew and cargo
If it makes y'all feel any better, the U.S. and even South Korean naval vessels that do anti-piracy missions actually do plan an attack in the event of a piracy and have retaken vessels. The Royal Navy's ROEs really are something else.... They have the equipment and capabilities but usually refuse to send sufficient force, if not, any.
Captain says the ships that have been pirated "are slow and have "low freeboard!" Well, Duh! They have "low freeboard" because they're loaded with valuable cargo; the ships with "high" freeboard are EMPTY!
38:55 SCREW boarding pirate vessel. Set demo charge on engines set charge on fuel cans. Have personnel didi pirate vessel. Get back proper distance and detonate. Otherwise you're wasting fuel and fooling no one... 39:48 Add a satchel charge to the RPG ROUND. Blow in place. Remove skinny $ start fund 4 homeless Yank Vets.
“I’ve got a family to feed too, but I don’t go around pointing guns at people. Wait…well I actually do … hahaha” The sublime irony in this and the fact that it was lost on them, is such poetic truthfulness. Colonial, “legal” gun pointing is where all the trouble started. I just needed to point out that wonderful piece ignorant irony and cultural conditioning
Let's get creative? Gas up the engines, Duct tape the RPG's to the bow, Start the motors, Point that skiff towards Somalia and LET 'ER RIP.!!!! lol, Ya gotta laugh as this is beyond silly.. : Q: What's the fastest animal in the world? A: The Somalian chicken. ! hehe
it's obvious they had the pirates in sight and ruined the 1st attempt on the saldana but the us crew said those were fisherman and ok...if they were fisherman and ok why were they coming up on the merchant telling him to slow down but then took off(probably because they heard helicopters)
Could've asked more in depth questions like...what do you and the crew suppose we do? e.g. listen to the pirates? or act and risk the freedom of your lives (they are hostages and being taken to Somalia where the crew would probably get murdered anyway)
great video presentation , excellent work

They Should have Totally Stripped Away all Its Contents , including Motors if They Had no means of Towing the Small Skip or Loading It Up on Board and Given it To The Owners Or Families of any Victims to Seek any Monetary Compensation For The Company or Crews Families ???!!!!??? Instead A lot of Money blown , Just To Further Pollute The Ocean !!!
Marines are idiots they waste tax money like toilet paper
Should report both sides of the story it would give a better understanding to what is really going on there.
That is infuriating. Only solution that I can see is to treat any vessel with a no-go zone and have armed crews on board with permission to fire on approaching crafts.
Ross - please! Number these videos so that we can follow the stories!
Its frustrating for me sitting here watching that shit get pirated, i couldnt even imagine what the frustration must be like for those men.
I know right.😔
"once they're on board its too late, for the safety of the crew..."
Because armed pirates are less dangerous than potential friendly fire.
When you're aim is more dangerous than enemy gun fire, you need to reconsider whether you are fit for purpose.
Worthless waste of taxpayer money. No country or private security has full jurisdiction to perform military actions on foreign vessels that's why there is not much anyone can do about it. It all comes down to politics. Also keep in mind a lot of these heists are done by the merchant ship owners them self. They insure the cargo and stage the entire thing and claim the insurance money. There is a lot more than meets the eye.
Kalel Kent ... Now that's an interesting statement - about the ship owners doing this themselves. I'm not saying I disagree but I will say, show me something that will convince me (and please, I'm tired of conspiracy theories).
Kalel Kent Wuh? You need to get some sleep.
Interesting. stage the whole thing and get a huge payout from insurance.
@ Captain Ron -- It takes 2 seconds to google articles about this on the internet but i understand you wanting proof so here are a few links.

www.insurancebusinessmag.com/ca/news/marine/shipowner-arrested-for-alleged-fraud-in-pirate-attack-48708.aspx
Insurance fraud is big money business and it happens all the time. I was down in St. Thomas where hundreds of boats including multi million dollar top of the line yachts have been left to be sunk by the hurricane that hit that place. The owners are claiming they have no idea where their boats are, but they are all in that harbor and some of those boats are from Florida. People intentionally sailed to the area they knew was going to get hit hard and anchored the boats there. This is not from me this is from the locals that live there and they say this is a very common tactic.
Makes much more sense to hire onboard security before taking that route vs having a ship chase pirates day and night to lose almost every time
dat some crazy good camera on that heli.
So the ship gets pirated but doesn't board to reclaim? WTH are you there for then?
40:51 That had to be the most blatant act of disregard I've come across in awhile lol
At first I thought that was lieutenant Dan in the thumbnail.
StewartLB9424 nowaYYY !! i said the same thing
so when did they get boarded? Overnight? Because there were speed boats surrounding it and a mothership and then the mothership is said to be a fishing vessel, where did the speed boats go off too in the first distress call? Didn't anyone think to place a team on the Saldanha since it was a likely target because they tried already and it is a low easy ship to board.
The truth is that the captain doesn't want to stop the pirates. No one with any political power has a desire to solve the problem.
Everything you are saying about watching the merchant ship for a while makes sense, which is why they didn't do it. The globalists DON'T WANT to stop Somali pirates.
This is so useless...you've seen it's pirated and you let it go...Let me ask you one simple question, why are you there?
Sending one navy vessel is the minimum amount the British government has to do, in order to claim "We are doing everything we can!"
It's enough to say they're fighting the pirates, but not even 10% of the number of ships that are required. Just a PR stunt.
They will most likely never shoot a single pirate.
Have to agree with you... Watch Russian or USA boat guards...they don't hesitate to shoot them all down even one second.
You think Russian and American military will shoot down a ship with 20+ civilians on board? To get 6 pirates? nah...
yeah but that just sends the message that they can do anything they want just because theres 5 pirates. that's not a message you want o send but they are ! and its bs ! a fucking war shit isn't able to fight whats the fucking use then !!!
@@patman0250 they do fight. But they have to pick their moment carefully. They go in when they don't expect it, when they know the hostages are not held at gun point. It's not the ship they want to save. It's the people onboard. And that job will go to a kind of special forces who go in on land.
Catch & Release program!
Why in the "HELL" are you guy's out their.. In all reality you aren't going to get the Pirates until they have the ship.. If you can't go in take it back, Then why!! All you can do is watch people just sail to their eventual death.. And I'm not blaming the crews you are only following orders.. It's the command staff that's got you handcuffed.. It's sad, that wouldn't work in the Malacca Straits.. The Malaysian Special Forces don't play that......
They have to ask prime minster Traitor May if they can attack the pirates but her response is always the same:
"I'm SORRY but we simply MUST NOT TREAT PEOPLE OF COLOUR THAT WAY! It's only GIVING IN TO THE POLITICS OF HATE! Permission to free the hostages denied. Try to bring us back another 300 fake refugees man-children if possible - I really want to give them free houses and free money! Cheerio!"
its to make a tv program
@@BrokeCanadian hahahahahhahaa you're hilarious dude hahaha comment of the day hahahahha I totally agree with you, 100% percent you're right, our leaders are so fuckin DUMB!!! If u jump into someone's backyard you'll get arrested for trespassing if not shot, but if u kidnap an oil tanker worth billions of dollars with its crew and ask for ransom, the brave armed navy seals will watch u through binoculars and make sure that none of the pirates is injured or need help hahahahhaa this world has gone crazy!!!
I honestly believe what the pirates are doing is right they have the right to defend their waters
Defending and taking Hostages are a bit different.
It's not like the money they get goes to the struggling people or anything.
So they dragged the vessel all the way back to the main ship and didn't remove the outboard engines full of fuel and oil before they sunk it?
I Just Now Totally Agreed with your Statement and tried to explain the Same Thing !!! Right as Rain !!!!!
Emotions took over because they were reduced to mere spectators to a cause they were supposed to stop!!! Now they act like a child throwing a tantrum!😂... a very expensive tantrum that's hazardous to marine life.
Good job, better coordination could help and of course follow the money.
I feel for the military because of their outrageous engagement restrictions, but then the whole situation is laughable.
8:35 Enjoy bacon'n'eggs on toast while chasing pirates. Join the Navy today.
And almost evryone makin coments on this sight needs engrish lesons
dont be an ass.
I no thaets troo
how about Chinese or mandarin, its far more better than your shitty language.
who cares about your english language
Eye thot the saym ting
The Puntland map shown at 3:29 is not correct
Soo. They basically just monitor and watch them pirate vessels? Maybe if the merchant ships where armed then that would not be an issue? Think stupid, think.
hahahah i was thinking the same and i like ur picture
im guessing meeting violence with violence isnt the best option.... it will only make the attackers more aggressive/dangerous?
Insurance companies fund a lot of these pirate organizations. Playing both sides
You mean shipping companies? How insurance company would benefit from having to pay insurance claims to ship companies? Insurance companies would benefit from setting up private military contractors on board of the ships to prevent piracy. They dont need many pirate attacks to rise the cost of insurance if you though that was their goal.
I think he meant security companies
Hey Bill, I've heard this theory bandied around a bit.. Where's the profit?
Merv mechanic group .com
this is a older documentary, modern day they usually board and retake the ship OR now armed merchant ships even with 1 or two guards defend themselves. and the navy catches the dhow and takes them to the hauge to face charges.
True - Plus Somalis do not flee to yemen , Yemen is a battleground now. It,s the other way around now.
And a flare in the boat would have been enough to destroy skiff lol now every pirate in 10 miles know they are there from the gunfire
hhhwhence, my name a borat
Ross Kemp documentaries are just as entertaining as watching paint dry
The Americans would have been to save that ship and those hostages 🤷🏻♂️ smh
6:03, The number 1 reason we are here is to protect the world food program ships. Righteously!
Its time to hire private security easy as pie. Shoot first ask questions later. First you will save in the long run no loosing your cargo. And you take a few more scum out of circulation. No I have no pity for them.
They've been hiring security firms doing exactly what you suggested for years.
@@tommyarnold4392 Clearly not well enough. Somebody can start a bussiness out of this anti piracy security type company get ex millitary guys and off you go.
Already done, but they can't be everywhere.
They just sunk an empty boat with alot of drama yet a ship was pirated under their watch 😂
😂 Pathetic! And totally useless!!
So to be clear they are looking to stop pirates, when they find a ship that has been taken over if the pirates say "Go away" they just let them carry on their merry way.. Lol,, I love the politicallycorectards!!!
hang them pirating will stop immediately
What i don't undestand is what happens after the pirates boarded the ship... The marines don't attack to not put the ship's crew in danger...but are they following the ship or are they just letting them go ? I mean what happens to thecrew after arriving in somalia ?
They are Dinner Time Party’s Main Course !!! If Nobody Buys Their Freedom???!!!
Of course the American Helicopter got there first
The United states has 430 ships, they really can't protect the ships? What else do they really have to do?
All them people live in minneapolis now,,
lmao....At least they are out of their element up there.
The Dumcrates in Minneapolis to be exact.
COYG!!!
you said the fisherman, asked the ship to slow down... lol wtf you think fishermen want a large ship to slow down for??? they going to sell fish to the ship? British are always finding excuses to not get into combat. Sometimes, I think you guys are French. Just run away, already... stop posing as a security ship, when you have no balls. or common sense. Seen the Captain recording himself on a cassette player...lol WTF... its 2018 people. time to update that 8 track players already.
Given your stupid insulting of the French, I hope you are one day taken hostage by sexually pervert pirates... :-)
@@ericlaurent6084 lol
Having all that firepower and letting the pirates take the ship away is frustrating. 😢😢
The pirates used to be fishermen, commercial over fishing means no more fishing
Agreed, I saw a documentary how the chinise and every one else have been comercial fishing for years. Now I can not say they all where Fisher man to feed their family. But people in that part of the world support their family just doing that. That's the flipside of the story. Thx
Not denying this ten years ago.
No international fishing ship is going to work pirate waters.
No illegal international fishing is going to occur with an international force nearby.
I've always wondered why the merchant ships don't have a few snipers on board.
Pirates chasing piratés
so what is your definitions of a PIRATE ?
Pirates = British
Seems the British version of Captain Philips would have ended very differently...
The over fished is a lie,,umm make millions by taking a ship or penny's by fishing?? Think about it
It's just an excuse, atleast that is my opinion. They know that people Believe in it and that Everything is PC now so they know that people will complain if people say that they are obviously not fishermen.
Well then, Mr. Toad, show us the evidence that proves your big soap-box post there, champ.
@Brandon Toad: I am a Trump supporter and see the problem dumbass. You took a philosophy class instead of a class that could actually teach you something about logic and science. All you have managed to do is get brain washed by lefty professors and spout your nonsense in a very unrewarding way. You should call your college and demand your money back.
A lot of ships have their own trained armed guards to protect their ship from pirates, why don’t every ship have that?
9:47 but why put a EOtech holographic sight on a minigun.
It’s the perfect circle jerk. If pirates are boarded, taken into custody, they are taken to Kenya. From there it’s is a responsibility Kenya detest because there is no money to process The pirates. Money is key. Now, insurance companies and lawyers have a hand in all of it. Now it become a bigger business. Insurance and lawyers are an exemption of the problems for shipping. Ship captains should be given security with the necessary munitions to protect the crew and cargo
Think how scary it would be being stranded on sea and then try to get help by a ship but instead you get swarmed by spec ops
If it makes y'all feel any better, the U.S. and even South Korean naval vessels that do anti-piracy missions actually do plan an attack in the event of a piracy and have retaken vessels. The Royal Navy's ROEs really are something else.... They have the equipment and capabilities but usually refuse to send sufficient force, if not, any.
5.16 what is that at the left?? Missile tube?
Is these episodes not the old ones he made
I wonder if the people on the warships suspect that the other skiffs, acting as just simple fishermen, really are in on it & just acting as decoys?
What did he say the pirates consumed? I cant find that part
I heard that pirates didn't want BP dumping toxic waste in their waters like they are doing.
yeah we punish those who come close with illegal ideas
Captain says the ships that have been pirated "are slow and have "low freeboard!" Well, Duh! They have "low freeboard" because they're loaded with valuable cargo; the ships with "high" freeboard are EMPTY!
38:55 SCREW boarding pirate vessel. Set demo charge on engines set charge on fuel cans. Have personnel didi pirate vessel. Get back proper distance and detonate. Otherwise you're wasting fuel and fooling no one... 39:48 Add a satchel charge to the RPG ROUND. Blow in place. Remove skinny $ start fund 4 homeless Yank Vets.
The pirates are armed. You would have to blow them out of the water from a distance. They wouldn't let you put a bomb on their ship.
Even Blackbeard would laugh at these rules
“I’ve got a family to feed too, but I don’t go around pointing guns at people. Wait…well I actually do … hahaha”
The sublime irony in this and the fact that it was lost on them, is such poetic truthfulness.
Colonial, “legal” gun pointing is where all the trouble started.
I just needed to point out that wonderful piece ignorant irony and cultural conditioning
I guess everyone has forgotten about the convoy system? Why don't the container ship companies create their own armed escort fleet?
Ross Kemp is a real Gangster
hello when you did the war videos did you ever use a gun
lol jabooty 41:46
Let's get creative? Gas up the engines, Duct tape the RPG's to the bow, Start the motors, Point that skiff towards Somalia and LET 'ER RIP.!!!! lol, Ya gotta laugh as this is beyond silly..
: Q: What's the fastest animal in the world? A: The Somalian chicken. ! hehe
spend millions to find pirates, watch them go with the pirated boat, get 20 bucks from that abandonned boat! Logical
it's obvious they had the pirates in sight and ruined the 1st attempt on the saldana but the us crew said those were fisherman and ok...if they were fisherman and ok why were they coming up on the merchant telling him to slow down but then took off(probably because they heard helicopters)
So what good was the British Navy, you just watched! I guess being American. We would have went in and attempted to save the crew.
They were just chasing Tuna for my sushi.
Sinking a boat full of gaz to make it burn in the ocean. that's very ecological... BRAVO, BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We don’t have capability to Taking back vessel 🚢 ....what..?
39:30 that's food? lol
Is HMS Northumberland a cruiser? A destroyer? Ahh...frigate!
Enormous to say the least
Could've asked more in depth questions like...what do you and the crew suppose we do? e.g. listen to the pirates? or act and risk the freedom of your lives (they are hostages and being taken to Somalia where the crew would probably get murdered anyway)
