interesting how the random lady on the ship who called her daughter did more to save lives than the captain
Ye captain speggeti brain was doing it for the money not for the job let alone Alvaro g abt his passengers
Right? Always think for yourself, especially in such situations, they don't want to cause panic, but that doesn't mean they have your best interest at heart, as in this case. Don't do drastic crazy shit though, but don't just listen like a sheep if your instinct tells you something's wrong, like a "blackout" causing a ship to tilt. I would have been standing with a life vest next to a life boat if they told me to go back to the cabins
false.
@Nobody comments are not funny you troglodyte she didn't do more to save lives. its that simple.
@@Triantalex she informed the coast guard. Which allowed them to start preperations for an evacuation before the captain even bothered reporting the ship was taking on water.
It’s gotta take some serious balls to say “I died twice” while you’re at a hearing for a tragedy where 30 or so people *literally* died.
moreso just not having a good grasp of English
And she is STILL allowed free despite having been a stowaway AND involved in the fatal shipwreck

The sad part is that if they'd just said "Yes we ran aground, the coastguard are coming to relieve us" from the very beginning, panic would have probably been avoided all together
And the number of casualties wouldve been 0*
Maybe one or two, at most
Or if they just told truth in the beginning and just cold blank took it. Instead of stretching it out, now the company behind the catastrophe just got away with it.
Exactly - telling people "nothing's wrong" when their instincts are screaming at them that they're in danger: just makes them feel you're not taking it seriously.
Will it? Seen this in another timeline?
How did so many people die ?
The ship was so near to the shore and the there we're Life boats.
Im Sure its messy and people panick, but i still Wonder why so many died.
Does someone knows sth ? :D
Naval historian here. In days past, this Captain would have been executed for this, civilian or military. He absolutely changed into a suit to avoid assisting other passengers, which is one of the most selfish unconscionable thing ive ever heard of. There are modern day cruise ships where cabin boys assist passengers in an emergency, it is inexcusable for the Captain to not do anything for the passengers..not to mention it was HIS mistake. Honestly kinda surprised none of the dead passengers families had him killed
Exactly what I thought. He changed clothes to avoid responsibility. Awful
And besides, a captain goes down with his ship.
Cazzo

"i died twice as hard because i got caught cheating with a cowardly "captain" :'(( the pain those that lost family members feel means nothing compared to MY lost pride!!!"

I believe the word she was looking for was "embarrassed." I can understand the confusion since I'm sure her shameless, skanky ass must be unfamiliar with the feeling.

33 people died bc he couldn’t admit to fucking up and ask for help.
In a way, that is what sank Nixon too (pun intended) Since JFK took responsibility for the bay of pigs disaster, while nixon further denied anything about watergate, despite clear growing evidence against himself.
The worst part about watching this was the fact that there were so many moments where such a disaster could have been avoided. I feel so bad for the people who died, because they should have lived.
How tf did he get to ship captain to begin with, and how tf did he keep the position after crashing TWO OTHER LINERS
I wonder how many died in the initial flooding of the compartments that were hit. Intense flooding in major rooms probably full of engineers had to of had some consequences.

Is it supposed to be a lesson in what not to do?
This probably isn’t the case but i’d like to imagine it as a “don’t do what i did” type of thing

I remember the US media going apeshit about this, calling it "a real life Titanic moment" having apparently forgotten that Titanic wasn't just a film.
They also went with "Thank goodness it was so close to shore" somewhat conveniently forgetting that it was the shore that sunk the damn thing
That's pretty hilarious
to be fair this moron could have found a way to sink the thing in a hundred kilometres of open water and clear weather, I'm sure
American media moment
That’s why I love America 🇺🇸
Tbf even this video said it was a good they they were so close to shore.
People often question the intelligence/competence of fictional characters, like in horror or crime. Saying "they couldn't possibly be that stupid!" and the like, and yet here is the perfect example of human stupidity in real life. This sounds like an episode of Archer ffs.
the more we succeed the more sloppy we get, and then we tumble apart
There is a difference tho. Unlike real life , in fiction there is allways someone to answer for the actions of the characters while IRL there is none , which means that its the author's duty to leave little up for interpretation if he can . Charater actions need to be excused by motivations, personality and so on.
Seccondly , the author is GOD as far as the book is concerned so he cant explain things by chance since there is no chance when you are GOD .
Thirdly realism is not necesarily good . Plausibility is what is good .
@@shadowpriest2574 im talking about irl :)

The thing is when Archer crashes a ship he's usually drunk and it's funny. This guy was sober and it was a tragedy.
"Vada a Bordo Cazzo!" was iconic, but it wasn't the best part of their dialogue during the sinking.
"Schettino lei si sarà salvato dalla furia del mare, ma io le faccio passare l'anima di guai"
-"Schettino you might have escaped the fury of the sea, but I'll make sure you have a miserable life" was the best one
In other words, JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL ONE WAY OR ANOTHER
I saw it translated as, “You may have escaped the sea today, but I will really hurt you”. Either way, POWERFUL
@@stealthlock6634 there's no direct translation that sounds good, closest would be 'I'll make your life a living hell'
"You may have escaped the fury of the sea, but I'll make sure you won't escape the fury of me!"?
that's too long to get tattooed but it fuckin owns
Aside from the brilliant editing, I love that this video isn’t so much about the sinking of the Concordia, but about the shit show all around it, which is probably why we’re all here. Condolences to the friends and family of the 33 people who’s lives were lost in a careless stunt.
Ok but that deputy mayor who voluntarily went on board the ship is actually a chad.
The captain’s mistress telling that random guy he isn’t allowed to record really sent me
I would've been like "Bitch, we just survived a shipwreck. You can't fucking stop me."
I would follow her shouting "who tf are you to tell me what what to do? This is a public place and the law doesn't prohibit recording in a public place" I bet she wouldn't be so bossy after that.
See I initially assumed that she was the Captain's mistress AND ALSO had like, some kind of legitimate position of authority on the ship?
But no, she was literally just the Captain's side piece, and a god damn stowaway at that, and yet she really had the audacity to just be like "Ummmm who said you could film this???"

Too many ways to track and moniter these groups and take down their most prominent members effectively dismantling the whole organization.

@@oshel5793 Italian mafia is still a thing by this day. Police and internal forces are actively trying to fight them.
Either Costa knowingly employed unqualified 'people' to captain and steer the ship, or they knowingly didn't bother with training for any of the bridge crew. Either way, the lovers allowed Carnival to avoid manslaughter.
exactly. just because the captain fucked up doesn't mean the company isn't absolutely culpable
As an italian, i can say that "incompetence and corruption" is what sums up every facet of italian history from its foundation in the 19th century to today. We have lost wars because high-ranking people put their relatives as generals instead of people who know what a war is. An example is what happened in my comune (municipality in italian) a few years ago. They received 15.000€~ to decorate the town for christmas. All they did was build a christmas tree made of rusted scaffolding covered by a green protective net with a star on top of it, something that was rumored to cost less than 400€. Where did the remaining 14.600€ go? In the hands of the camorra (neapolitan mafia). This is also one of the reasons why we don't want to pay taxes in southern italy. Schettino probably had a relative working inside Costa Crociere who let him get the job, of course without having the need to do tests and do what is needed to get to the position of captain.
@@TheAtomohWhile not Italian myself I'd say your assessment is spot on. Unfortunately nepotism has destroyed your country.
Why the hell is people in quotation marks? Are you saying they're aliens or bugs or something. Are they three raccoons in a trench coat?

Genuinely wondering what Schettino expected to gain from lying to the coast guard. I can't imagine a single scenario where doing so could possibly have a better outcome for him than just telling the truth and calling for a rescue.
He was just trying to delay the inevitable and was in huge denial. There wouldnt be a good scenario where that would be helpful but he had a pride to preserve I guess lol
I used to work on tugboats and the scrutiny of captains and pilots ESPECIALLY when passengers are present on the boat is very freaking high. I always assumed it would be 10 times as scrutinized when it comes to cruise ships but I guess I was entirely wrong

cant wait for a internet historian video on the Titan Sub that went missing at the Titanic.
On the principle of reaching equilibrium, Titanic was rated to survive flooding for the first 4 compartments, not 2. 6 compartments were breached, although the 6th compartment (Boiler Room 5) breach was small enough for the pumps to keep under control. The 5th compartment ahead (Boiler Room 6) was far too heavily breached meaning her doom.

The only person that seemed competent was the repair engineer. That guy was jury rigging that fan with a screwdriver to buy more time. Time the captain wasted. Glad someone told him to evacuate despite the captain.
Tbh the repair engineer, the security officer who disobeyed the captain, the Indian waiter, all were lions led by 1 fucking donkey

I love to keep coming back to this video, just because your storytelling is amazing. Also, the biggest tragedy about all this is how easily it could have been avoided.
Me as well! As I pick up on more mistakes everytime I watch it that the crew did. UNREAL!
coming back here after the latest titanic related happenings lol
A trucker gets a speeding ticket on their day off and they loose their job, a boat captain crashes two multi million vessels and then they get promoted to a super multi million vessel
Well, it's harder to find "good" ship captains than to find another good trucker
@@danielm.595 the fired trucker would do better than him
@@verybarebones amen
@@danielm.595 It's not hard to find bad captains, apparently.
@@stormisuedonym4599 pretty much, but, if you look into it, you will notice that the majority of ship accidents happened because the captains where trying to show of.
"Who is the best captain for this new ship?"
"Sir, we have a captain that has wrecked a couple of ships."
"Perfect!"
"Do you have any experience as a ship captain?"
"Well, I've crashed a few ships in my time, so you tell me."
Well, he DOES have experience with ships...
@@letsBrn what's funny is they could be experienced because many pilot tried to recreate the Pentagon plane hit but failed to do it because they say its impossible, or it could be not a plane at all
And who used to be just the head of security, but within a couple of years managed to become a captain. That guy clearly had some massive connections with important political figures. That wouldn't only explain the fact that he was hired despite being incredibly underqualified, but also his multiple affairs with relatively good looking women, while himself looked like a melting piece of ham with pubic hair on top.
worst captain ever.
"I will cause you a BOATLOAD of trouble!"
This line hits hard.
I feel like I rewatch this atleast once a month. A true masterpiece! One day we will get the Internet Historian as a dvd box set!
Oh hey 3 weeks ago nice.
Oh hey 9 days ago nice.
Oh I made it 3 weeks this time

XD Oh look its been 3 weeks time to rewatch my favorite movie!@@Redbikemaster
After seeing the Fyre Festival, I didn't think the Internet Historian could recite a more jaw-droppingly disastrous event than that... boy was I wrong.
Incompetence: water edition lmao
Even though Fyre sucked, this one caused actual deaths.
Yeah people need to do and be better
...Did I watch that one?
Gotta make sure later!

Imagine if, at the conclusion of the trial, he'd said, "but I am innocent for you see... I am not the captain!" and then whipped off his face to reveal the missing magician.

Real quick note about the cocaine in the captains hair sample; I believe its not literally to say theres cocaine powder on the hair, but rather that it was in his system
This was definitely the most exciting narration I've ever heard on UA-cam. I was honestly winding yarn into a ball while listening, and I kept on going faster and faster because this was just so exciting!
I'm Italian, this is a god-tier documentary, not even the journalists are this good at reconstruct the events.
Hell, I've learned more about the event by watching this video than from the actual media.
Indeed
This was like the HBO Chernobyl documental
A perfect balance of information, memes, and godlike editing
Yeah, also from italy, not expecting such a masterpiece
@@DavidRamirez-lq2co except without the scarenongering and mysticism
This really shows how “connections” can get you jobs you don’t deserve.
Also, the corruption of Italy...
Dude, Italy it s old school, like you said connections, it s all about favors, it s all doddggy. In a State where the anti mafia leader is involved deeply with mafia and has no remorse is done for me.
ozymandias
Raccomandato 💯
Almost there. The companies that work through "connections" usually end up sinking like this ship
Everything that could go wrong went wrong. The captain's incompetence is mind-blowing.
40:05 I hope "Vadda a bordo, cazzo!" was his campaign slogan.
That story was like an action movie. Drug trafficking, hot steamy romance, crazy ship crashing. That was insane
the thing with drug traces on external samples is meh. if you ever used a public bathroom they would find traced on you as well. Theres a lot of that shit in public places that you can pick up without knowing.
@@StrazdasLT Im pretty sure even your money has trace amounts of cocaine due to how many times it had exchanged hands before you got a hold of it.
"Truth is stranger than fiction"
@@iwannaseehowlongyoucanmakethis idea get money scrap off cocaine sell it get more money scrap off cocaine stonks
All it lacked awas action packed fight, but i'm sure the eventual movie can make that XD
It was kind of messed up of the media to try to shift the blame to the mistress "distracting the captain" as if he wasn't the one in charge of this disaster, but imagine having the absolute audacity to say "today I die for the second time" to the camera when people actually died on that ship...
I was prepared to feel bad for her until that bullshit
I mean I'd be distracted by her
Agreed. Although I guarantee that she did indeed distract him, that was entirely his fault for bringing her there in the first place, and then not having the self-discipline to do his damn job, regardless of her presence.
as far as I remember he even blamed her for touching his hair when traces of cocaine were found in a hair analysis. I'd really like to know how or why he got away with this excuse.
well i guess it takes a lot for them to ever blame a man for his own actions
Good video. But some would argue that M/S Estonia was a larger cruise-ship disaster with over 800 dead. And the fire on the Scandinavian Star with over 150 casualties. Estonia also comes with a fair share of tin-foil levels of speculation what actually happened
Well definitely estonia is the worst cruise disaster in the western world after titanic no doubt. It was what concordia could have been if it happened anywhere else.
I dont want to be Nerdy but im Sure that the Wilhelm Gusslof Was and is Still the most deadly disaster in the westerny area of the World after the Titanic

The deputy mayor actually getting on the ship and helping with the evacuation is a pretty badass move
People here used to say that those events showcased the doublefaced nature of Italy. Noble heroes on one side, incompetent corrupt cowards on the other.
Not even the mayor. The DEPUTY mayor!
That man better have gotten an award or im suing the entire nation
@@navaryn2938 in the usa our officals dont have that first side
@@navaryn2938 It reminds me of that Greek crewed cruise ship off South Africa--the captain and crew abandoned the ship with it's passengers as the ship began to sink. The shipboard Band that was entertaining the passengers actually did the job of organizing the evacuation and contacting authorities on shore for the rescue.
When Costa Concordia happened, I thought--FINALLY A captain even more cowardly and incompetent than that Greek Captain.
I was working on another cruise ship at the time the Concordia sank, and it was really annoying how the upper officers came down hard on US and put us under a microscope during every safety drill afterward. Like, dudes, I'm just a piano player. I had nothing to do with this shithead captain and his untrained crew fucking everything up.
I end up coming back to this video at least once a month. I think it's some of your best work
The whole "lie to prevent a panic" thing always pisses me off. How the hell do you think that's going to help the situation at all, especially since people are just going to panic harder once they realize they've been lied to?
That only works if you can fix the situation and do something about it, the problem here is that they can't fix it and the Captain was in denial of what happened.
is perfect to control the crowd WHEN THE DISASTER CAN BE SOLVED BEFORE they all realize...
in those cases works perfectly.
This was not one of those cases obviously
Why lie? It's better to tell everyone what is actually happening when a situation mean LIVES ARE ON THE LINE!!!!! because then you will cause more panic in the crowd if you lie about the F'ING SHIP SINKING!!!!
@@galladesamurai2380 yes no ones denying the captain should have been honest here, he knew the ship was cooked and was dishonest which cost lives. But in the event of a resolvable situation (ie the ships not sinking but may have a flooded compartment) you lie to avoid panic because people scare easily and now you’re trying to solve a problem with the ship AND deal with people running around like headless chickens
@@redbear8974 lmao Headless chickens
