The captain that "accidentally " fell into a life boat ......
XD!
yea and it left an hour AFTER he ''fell'' into
Just like he told his wife he fell into another woman's bed
He must have tripped over that invisible rope lmao
i heard a 2nd call between the two captains ...eeeer..one captain De Falco...where captain coward claimed he fell into the water lol
If you wrote this guy as a character, people accuse you of lazy writing. All the negative stereotypes of a sleaze ball rolled into one.
It so easy for us to pass our remarks..
you need to sit down with a person and really know them over a process of many many meetings and discussions,
one thing is for sure he did not plan for those poor people who lost their lives to end up like that or for those who were injured and traumatised..
yes he made mistakes and yes maybe he did lose his nerves and got frightened and confused.. and yes he took vowels to be last of the ship, but when push comes to shove a number of other scenarios can play out
just because he was named captain he was like all of us a human first with all the human faults that we possess..
it’s ok to point a finger at others when they get it wrong but just remember to point the other three at yourself when you also get things wrong, but we know when it’s us we like to also look for excuses and wiggle our way out of it,
we humans have so much hypocritical and double standards within ourselves..
So correct. What scum.
@@Silkroads733 very true.
@@Silkroads733 I understand what you are telling. But i dont agree with you at all, that he was like all of us before accident. And from now i relate him to seamans. He was not like all of us before katastrophe simply, becouse non of us is drunk with a woman when ship is in the stage of departing....verry few of us will be willing to do this in that risky few hours, especially not on the big cruser ship........6-7 hours after departure, maybe yes??? Yes we all do stupid thing. But not on most dengerous stage of trip......So, this one is a true phenomenon. Guy who was the best in his class at school, but in reality a coward and gambler with lifes in his hart......one of the worst.... And court saw this. He is not some caind of escape goat. He is 100% guilty of neglegance, drunkness and cowardnes at sea and i dont need to seet down with him to knowing his better side....with respect, greetings from Slovenia
@@Silkroads733 No, I don't think that's uquite accurate. Of course, people depict Schettino as a sort of caricature, and while it seems like he had at least some amount of guilt (as it's reported that he cried in the arms of the chaplain after leaving the ship), this doesn't excuse his behavior in the slightest.
Schettino didn't abandon ship after an accident made him panic. He abandoned ship after executing a risky maneuver, with his third in command not playing her part in the process, showing a disregard for safety. He ordered the crew to lie to the passengers about the situation, which led to more deaths. And he lied to the media after he came back on shore, about having been the last to leave.
Of course, all of us can be cowards, all of us can be irresponsible. But this is exactly why everyone isn't a ship captain. A ship captain should never behave like this. He should be selected for his ability to constantly remain calm, even in the most dire situation, as well as a constitution that would avoid him taking unnecessary risks as Schettino did that one night.
You can't fix "stupid" and you can't fix "coward." This man is both.
XD i LOVE these comments
I wouldn't feel safe in a Gondola in Venice with this guy as my gondolier.
ah! ah! ah! He wasn't a real Captain. His credentials were paid by money laundering
Lol
😁😁
@Ch'iidii they had different laws and regulations then.
Thats why captsin smith isnt faulted.
This occured 100yrs almost to the day since those regulations were 1st called into question and about 95yrs since those regulations drastically changed.
This guy literally did EVERY SINGLE THING against CURRENT regulation and law in this instance. Every.... Single... Thing.
Dont be a fool! He had command of several Costa ships and wasnt put in command of this mega -ship other than that he was a competent seafarer who made an honest mistake. Think before you spout nonsense..
His haircut alone would make me question his captain skills
Lol same
He's italian after all.
Facts
Yep. A greasy slimeball.
@@Tortuosit Almost nobody in Italy has sported a mullet haircut since 1990 :)
I did a cruise on the "Costa Concordia" a few years before its last cruise - same captain - same route. A beautiful ship, but safety was definitely not a high priority. Our first drill was well into the second day on board. Passengers were asked to report to different areas (concert halls, dining rooms, etc) to listen to announcements, which were repeated in six or seven languages. There was mass confusion. People were talking, especially when forced to listen to a language that they did not understand. Because of the noise, I understood nothing! Knowing what I know now, that there was a serious accident and loss of life, comes as no surprise.
This guy lacked any organizational skills. Struck me as a party animal. He shouldn't have been allowed to paddle a canoe, much less be in charge of a cruise ship.
That’s against the codes like solas the mandatory safety briefing should be on the first day
The Concordia class doesn’t even have a ship called Concordia this is the only one that ended up that way from carniva the others destiny and fantasy fantasy was scrapping and destiny was remodeling
That is awful. Wow, and to think it sunk on the first day of that trip, right? Horrible, poor people.
I have to say though, about the announcements in 6/7 languages, is it really his fault though? I mean what else could have been done in that aspect? It may be inconvenient, but as long as you also get to listen to them in a language you understand, if you (not _you_ per se, a general you) talk loudly over the announcements in other languages, it just means you're selfish or don't at all think about the potential gravity of the situation if a problem does indeed arise.
Agree with you 100%....Scettino was not, even on first side, some guy who gives you impression that he's the man you can trust your life. It's simple: he looks like a fine suit bum and he was acting like that. So is not surprise, that he run away.
And we are talking a large vessel carrying over a 1,000 people on board for a full week.
Not only did he crash the ship, not only did he lie to the passengers and the harbor master thus delaying evacuation not only did he abandon the ship not only did he argue with the Coast guard about going back to help the passengers but he also had the nerve to make up excuses? Disgusting...
And actually fled the scene in the taxi to hotel and was concerned where to buy dry socks, while the rescue was still going on!!! This criminal should have been sent to the electric chair. www.spiegel.de/international/europe/italy-mystified-by-shipwreck-captain-the-bizarre-behavior-of-francesco-schettino-a-809927.html
Worse, he dined with a woman and even ordered for dessert afterwards
The worst was when he was told to go back over the radio the coast guard told him there were dead people in the sea and his response to that was to ask how many dead people. Why would that matter? The reason why he asked that specifically was because he felt the rope getting tight around his neck. So he didn't care about his passangers and thought the situation would resolve itself, when he realized there would be tragedy he wanted to know the number of deaths that he was supposed to be knowing in the first place, had he been there. That shows how egocentric he was, even in that situation all he could think about was himself.
I bet you know nothing.
Yep
wouldn't even stay to help people with a tragedy that you caused, shame on you captain schettino!
ryandyc Captain Cretino
"I tripped and fell into a lifeboat"
a very conveniently placed life boat. One that had a lot of padding so when I fell into it, I didn't injure myself.
@Bogdy Yo: Deviating from a drawn & approved course is absolutely the captain's decision, noone else's. He DID cause the accident.
@@monicamarrero5387 lmao
As a captain, you are the last person off the ship or go down with the ship after you been able to provide rescue and delegate to your crew proper instructions
And if you are the captain of a ship that receives a distress call from another ship that is trouble, it is your responsibility to head for that ship quickly as possible in order to help them.
Scumbag blamed everyone but himself
Saving your self and leaving woman and children behind is a coward decision Captain
mohshehri "woman and children"... as if men lives didn't matter -_-
Men are strong enough to save their selves
mohshehri That's the most stupid thing to say... You're basically implying that women are weaker than man so they're not capable of performing a task like saving their lives by themselves...
At the same time, many women are fighting for your rights to perform physical demanding tasks like sports and jobs with the same opportunities as men..
But when it comes to saving lives... you go first because you're weaker?
Dumb mentality.
Alex Tienda agreed
mohshehri your an idiot
He is definitely no Edward John Smith,you run your ship aground you stay on it until the last soul is off
And nor is he Captain Sully the USA pilot who landed his airplane on the Hudson River and made sure all 154 of his crew and passengers were safely rescued before leaving the sinking plane. That is a real, captain and hero.
Carol Morris Captain 👩✈️ Sully a perfect example of an AWSOME caring for his passengers and crew captain. He left no one behind. All Alive and well. God bless this man ❤️🌹💐.
@@alaskanactressp30 his name is remembered the world over. Sir, even South Africa salutes and thanks you. Peace to you and yours 🇿🇦
@@carolmorris404 he got lucky. Had his plane been going faster h e woulda crash landed and blown the plane apart into pieces. Had he been going slower he woulda dropoed into the water and again blown the plane into pieces. Had his plane lost equilibrium he woulds smashed in cockeyed into the water. Evwey possinle thing that coulda gone right and NEVER DOES ANY OTHER TIME for some strange reason did for him that day.
It was really luck luck and more luck.
Hes the luckiest pilot in history.
@@JTScott1988 he NEVER panicked. That was his precursor to "luck". Too many "had of's" in your comment. Just saying...
When he pulled the 'inexperience' card, I got so pissed off. That coast gaurd ran the air rescue team that rescued over 100 people off the ship.
:O
the truth hurts him XD BUT I DONT EVEN CARE!!!
In Italian law, the captain has to be the last survivor on the ship. He got 16 years in prison.
that's for 32 lives lost though. But in theory let's say 1000 people died, would it still be 16 years? As in 16 is the maximum sentence? Or did the judge decide that 6 months is a fair sentence for each life lost due to his negligence?
@@lostn65 In USA, it's 100 years per lost lives. So 32*100 = 3200 years of prison.
@@mirzamirza7878 he was charged with manslaughter not murder
@@mirzamirza7878 i beg to differ ever heard of the casey case lol? a mom murdered her 3 year old daughter and got a “not guilty” verdict on all charges...

Come on Schettino this is so bad of you how dare you. I am the captain of the Mont St Michel of Brittany Ferries. I work for Brittany Ferries. I have had specific training to be the last person of the ship. Schettino this is so simple you knew you should have been the last person of the Costa Concordia or had you not you should have gone down with the ship. Shame on you Schettino
The ships have no LifeBoats..
Well said Captain. Spoken like a true Ship's Master. 🙂
And I'm the Captain of the Starship Enterprise!
I read navy blogs and the commentators were just horrified that the captain tried to flee. The phrase "shoot him" may have been uttered more than once.
Aye aye Captain
Accessing the ladder to get back on the ship is irrelevant. He should have never left his ship and those in his responsibility in the first place.
Exactly
This Is the difference when you work for a paycheck as opposed to working for your country . A marine , a navy captain , an airforce pilot or a coast guard would never abandon a situation TIL the last person is rescued . I showed this to my 85 year old veteran grandfather and he had tears in his eyes on this pastas corawrdice .
His mullet haircut says it all ...... Business at the front .... party at the back. A man of two sides. A duopoly apology!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂 yeap ur right
Oh my god I just realized that.
Oh woooow 😂😂😂 you put that perfectly
@@melissacoleman1097 😜😜😜😜
An utter coward hiding away on a lifeboat whilst his crew done their best. Surprised he wasn't wearing a pretty dress. Well done helicopter pilot spotting him.
32 died = 32 life sentences. Some might prefer to give him a death sentence at this dead count. People have killed one person and got the death penalty. He killed 32 with his negligence first, then by him refusing to help the people still on the ship. These people had no-one.... He still has his life.
American right? Americans love their long sentences and brutal justice
But how many lives did he save from beaching the ship theres a chance 1,500 people would have been in the water if he didn’t beach it and the ship sunk not just capsized half the lifeboats where unusable because he waited so long but by beaching the ship in the wind the ship didn’t fully submerged saving the coral reef under neath and actually making a salvage operation possible. With half the life boats unusable that’s about 1,500 guests and 500 crew that would be stuck on the ship. But yes he could do with another 30 years
@@ElloImNoodle You´re talking as if the boat crashed becouse of a mechanical failure and it wasn´t the captians fault
@@0210mick but it was also mechanical failure after the incident the boat then blacked out after
American here and I agree
As an Italian, I feel shame for him
As an American, I can tell you, Schettino is not representative of Italians. The Coast Guard commander is.
@@flyingtigerline yes he is
Clearly English is not his strong point, but there's still that trademark word-salad-smoke-screen thing going on that stinks of a guy telling big ones
you should hear is Italian. Is no better
Both this guy and the MV Sewol captain abandoned ship with passengers still on board.
Sewol Captain: Life in prison
Schettino: 16 years.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Chef: Captain if I may have a word the ship is sinking...
Captain: ok call my lawyer.
If Mayor Quimby from the Simpsons had an Italian cousin, this is who he'd be.
Perfect
Regardless He should have NEVER left that ship .#1 Maritime Rule .
Guilty Period.
Point is...you abandoned ship while 4000 innocent lives are on board...such a coward.
If the ship had been further off shore,and the boat didn’t lay on its side..I think there been even more deaths..sad 32 died,but this captain should have stayed and guided people and overseen the situation..but he didn’t .
Daz Ediss Correct. To cut a long story short, Actually the captain let his assistant sailors (don’t know the correct term) sail the boat and give them the co-ordinates to go closer. Obviously being inexperienced they failed miserably. Captains reason? To go and have dinner with his mistress !
susan brown agreed - as Captain if the ship he would know it better than anyone. Who better to coordinate the rescue efforts and reassure the passengers during the rescue. Shocking & sad.
he said it was too dark
Actually if it had been further offshore it probably wouldn't have hit the rocks, but yes agree with your point, would have been more deaths.
I know it's been a while, but after swiping the rocky outctopping, the ship quickly lost all helm control and veered out into deeper water for a little bit, righting itself as the flooded balast tanks evened out underneath. After a few minutes, the wind pushed the ship back into shallow water where it grounded and tipped into its final resting place. I call this out so there is no misunderstanding that coming to rest in shallow waters was in any way an intentional action by a competent captain/crew - it was not.
Showing off ... sailing to close to the shore .... that was the error .
Leaving the ship with passengers still on board that was unforgivable .
It was an easily forgiven error too, phone conversations reveal the direction of Costa asked him to go near the shore
Worst captain ever!
That mullet really says it all doesn't it.
Oceanos: *you haven’t feel the real betrayal yet.*
The best one was him booked into a hotel and giving press interview stating everyone was off safe and he was the last to leave while people were still being rescued from the sea 🙊
Now I see why the captain of the Titanic went down with his ship
Because the captain should be the last to leave....if you don't loke that don'y become a captain
@@julieellul4802 Captain or not.
I'm a much bigger fan of the every man for himself motto rather than these ancient women and children first non sense rules.
Imagine how dumb he would sound trying to explain running into a Iceberg....but I know one thing, he wasnt a coward
@@ziudra91 you would seriously put your life before children and their mothers? That's sad.
@@ashthrice6s Easy for you to say now.
Once you are in a live or die situation your animalistic survival instincts kicks in.
he knew where the ladder was he just didn't want to get back on bored because he is a coward
A full lier. Incredible. This is why our country is sinking, and we have no rock to land on.
ma nun dicere strunzat
Italians are no responsibility for anything! No wonder why your mafia controlls everything! your politicans corrupt the police look away and the citizens doesnt hear and see anything!🤷♂️
Martin Seiler Thats true. It's sad but true...
DUDE! HOW IS IT THAT YOU WERE ALREADY OFF THE SHIP??? FORGET THE PHONE CALL YOU WEREN'T ON THE SHIP EVEN THOUGH PASSENGERS STILL WERE!!!
Shettino............he could not even sail a pizza!!!!
who COULD sail a pizza? A pizza is made of dough
If anyone COULD SAIL A PIZZA.... they'd be the best sailors in the world.
what if the pizza was on sale?
I think you mean He could not even _sell_ a pizza...
If Pizzas could fly, Sully could land it 😄
What a weasel! It so sad how they treated De Falco afterwards. But he will be remembered surely as a hero.
The truth is the Captain was one of the *FIRST* people to abandon the ship. In fact in another video they said the lifeboat he got on was the first one launched from that side of the ship.
Captain smith from titanic is shaking his head
Captain Smith was an irresponsible idiot - but a coward he was not.
@@MeBallerman your definitely smart with your hindsight
What an eloquent way to say, "I am a coward".
Narcissists really attain the highest positions after all 😂😂
Sad but true
Everyone is on the narcissistic spectrum mate.
Coast Guard:Get back on the boat your left
Captain: Doesn’t make any sense 😂
How did he go from head of security to captain of a ship?
I can understand and believe the second part of his version of events from where the other crew who picked him up were under orders to take him back to land and so on, but it doesn’t explain why he so promptly abandoned his own ship!
excuses...excuses.
Total opposite of Captain Edward Smith who willingly when down with his ship The Titanic.
Coward..
Borginator
That was a bigger blunder.
Titanic was sad... BUT THIS WAS STUPID! STUPID SCHETTINO STUPID UGLY HAIRCUT COWARD! LEFT LIKE 33 PEOPLE TO DIE ON THE SHIP! COWARD! HE IS TELLING BIG LIES! STUPID COWARD! HE DESERVES A LIFE SENTENCE! COWARD
And how about Captain Arthur Henry Rostron who didn’t complain about being awakened in the middle of the night and willingly gave orders to turn his ship around and head for the Titanic as quickly as possible in order to help them?
once the captain leaves the ship its abandoned
He felt the coast guard captain call was less significant than a previous call with a lawyer? Yet he later received a 16 yr jail sentence. Doubt he was as calm in jail as he seems in this interview. Scary and sad story.
The moment when he still didn't tell anybody of the problem for 1h
I don't expect him to count everyone when the ship is sinking but I expect him to stay on the ship and coordinate the evacuation and he didn't.
He doesn’t look like a captain, he looks like a joke.
He would not have to see a ladder if he stayed onboard to begin with. Everyone knows the Captain is the last to leave his ship. This weasel is a coward through and through. He actually checked into a hotel while there were still passengers waiting to be rescued.
He is a total embarrassment to the beautiful, strong and wonderful people of Italy.
Yes. But i suppose Italy should take consolation in how the Coast Guard commander acted.
Wasn't he supposed to be in jail?...
he is 16 years he got, this interview is before the trial in 2012 i think.
later... well its 2020 now so he is in jail but the time u watched this in 2018 he was interviewed then basically sent to jail :)
To die in honor or to live as a coward... whether given a lifetime or just minutes to decide between the two I will ALWAYS choose the first
Don’t be so sure, you’d only know how you’d truly react in the actual moment
Nah I'd chose 2nd if I were honest lmao
Right... it's so easy for everyone to say they would have chosen to stay and die, but when confronted with literal painful death staring down at them I guarantee the huge majority would try to survive and save their own asses. Bunch of hypocrites.
@@Darkness2179 A ton of captains choose to stay till the end. The crew stayed, one of the waiters died helping the passengers, but the stupid captain who was supposed to handle the evacuation fled on the FIRST lifeboat. The coastguard call was at 1:46, two hours after he fled. The rescue operation concluded at 5 am. Don't know why he couldn't have stayed till then.
Here's the link to an interview where he doesn't excuse, but answer like a man:
lol!
What kind of Captain is this
A cowardly captain
When he goes to the boating lake: it was not my fault we capsized
A building he’s in could be on fire but he would sound the alarm until the fire hit his room
Didn't the Mafia make this guy a captain so he could smuggle their drugs? Anyway, he was working security 2 years before somehow becoming a ship captain...
Liar!!!!! He made all the sense you were not supposed to leave the passengers period so if you didn’t understand that we have a bigger problem here!!!
My uncle was an admiral and led the pacific for the United States. In the U.S we don’t push women and children out of the way to slip into a lifeboat.
He a "Captain Save a Himself"
lol
The passengers would have felt better about the situation if their Captain was giving them instructions on what to do, just as passengers feel better when a pilot is in the cockpit of the plane during an emergency
If Trudeau was a cruise ship captain, he would be this guy
“I tripped and fell into the lifeboat”
3:17 “but the the, I took the the, lifeboat”
The awkward moment of falling into a lifeboat 😊
He’s a coward that should be arrested and charged for murder of the 37 people that died
sucks about all of those dead passengers but the important thing is this guy made it out OK and is safe lol
Such a disappointment of a person. Glad he is rotting away in prison.
He went to the hotel and checked in....wtf...what a hero
3:05 What i Can Do more
I love his hand....
Natasja G lol spasm
OMG! SAME XD
OMG
I certainly don't have enough experience to fully judge the skills of a cruise ship captain, but i have worked enough time on ships to know that there is no left/right side on ships. At least when two seaman are talking to each other the terms starbord/port or windward/leeward on sailing vessels are used to avoid confusion.
This guy couldn’t hit water if he fell off a boat...
For real, he fell into a life boat! Lol
On the other hand, Captain Edward John Smith was amazing, he died as a hero
@JJ Graham Titanic's captain
@@iloveclocks3988 And how about Captain Arthur Henry Rostron?
I guarantee that 95% of the tough guys in the comment section would have jumped ship before Schettino did, even if they'd been captain 😂
At least they don't call themselves captains knowing the responsibilities behind being captains.
@@silvercat3243 You really put the cell to work there, mate...
@Phil Failla Especially you 😄
The nerve of him to do this interview right around the anniversary of the deaths
Did you hear him?
No
Any announcements from him?
Great follow up question fredo.
his expression. the facial twitches, the uhh uh uhhh between lines. it is clear he is aware of his bad choice. he knows fully well he should have been the first man on board and the last man off.... that is the duty of his post, to preserve and protect the souls under his command... all of them.
How about this: DON’T LEAVE IN THE FIRST PLACE!
What a poor excuse for a captain!
he didn't leave. He slipped and fell and landed inside a life boat. He tried to get back in but it was too dark.
How did you find the captain?
Man combs his hair with a porkchop
Shame on you scettini captain of the toilet

Captain coward
How does a 'Captain' get off a sinking Ship? By going for it, or by choice! //
The most fantastic part of this is that he thought he could lie about it, and people would believe him. Sorry Charlie! Well at least he 'Manned up,' in the end, turned himself in, and said he deserved it.
Life Lesson: Always live with Integrity, and Honestly, and you'll be doing it right way to experience the highest level of Happiness in Life = giving yourself huge Peace of Mind.... by not ever having to worry about trying to hide this, or hide that, from others.
"I was on a lifeboat borrowed from another ferry close by". Their captain didn't want us to get close to the ship (To save lives) because their boat might get damaged.
Captain francesco schettino: Quickly into the lifeboat, we need to find that ladder from the safety of the shore.
I know that this is not going to be very popular, but even though I blame him for jumping ship, and definitely don’t buy the excuse that he fell off. I do feel slightly sorry for him because there were other people who are definitely to blame and they are all using this guy as a scapegoat ! Including Costa , who were speaking with him on the phone when it happened and they also told him to get close to the island. I do think it was cowardly for him to jump ship but I also think he’s a “fall guy” and a scapegoat !
As a Captain you are to balance corporate requirements as well as workplaces and client's safety. Failure to do so results in death or employment termination. If you are incapable of doing both you are to resign.
This is simmilar to any executive position where you have the full responsability of the operations conducted.
@@juanmanuelc6644 exactly. under any direction He is to blame !
There is a price to pay for the loss of the passengers and cruise ship. The captain was not willing to accept personal responsibility for the ship, its passengers or crew.
He is a coward and did not protect the safety of passengers and ship.
The only Captain he's going to be is flipping the fries at McDonald's
He was talking to a lawyer who informed him that someone could become a commanding officer in the Coast Guard with no maritime experience whatsoever? Did he actually say that? I wonder, "captain", who had maritime experience in this whole situation, was it the guy who showed concern for the safety of passengers and crew left on board the capsizing ship and coordinated rescue efforts? Or was it the guy who decided to move a massive ship way too close to a rocky coast for some vanity and didn't bother to ensure that the 1) there were no underwater dangers to the ship, 2) that the winds and currents were suitable to do such a manuever, or 3) deviated without permission the planned course? In this whole scenario, who is the more likely to not have maritime experience?
''Captain'' you are a disgrace for the merchant marine. Naval Law obliges your to abandon the ship last one, first passengers, especially women and children, then engineers, deck officers, first mate and finally you.
Check how he folds his arms as a defensive position.
How can you properly assess the situation if you are not on board former captain?
He is not a Commander... to receive the command of a vessel doesn't make you one...
If you want the title, you have to earn it at sea... and he failed miserably
The real question is: Why Costa Cruise has given that post to a guy with just 4 years of experience at the time?
16 yrs for 32 lives.
Fake court action, fake court system
Dhruve Rathe
I come from a family of captains. From my great grandfather to my late father. Scettino, you capsized a ship and then you got into a lifeboat and left. Under no circumstances the captain leaves the ship when there is an emergency!!! None!! This proves you had no training at all and you and your staff didn't performed any security drills in case of emergency. Now you're trying what exactly? To save your fame?
Are you related to any of history’s well-known captains? I’m very fascinated in those captains who were real heroes and I really wish Schettino would learn about them!
If.if..this was a filipino captain...the captain will die first......filipino captain will never abandon his people....but there was a discrimination in terms of work........
