Many of you will not remember, but this reminds me of "dark ages" of UA-cam, because this song was glued together with almost every UA-cam video in the "sinking ships genre" back in like 2007-2009. What a bizarre revival from Historic Travels! :D
Hahaha so the reason why i did this was because one of these videos showed up in my feed. I watched the video and thought, “I could do that better.” So I made this lol. It was just a fun mini project, made this in like 20 minutes and had a blast doing it. Lol
And to a lesser degree Don’t Let Go by Bryan Adams were used in a two videos about the Britannic and one on the Titanic.
Still feels like yesterday... :D
I wonder if anyone has told Nightwish that this song of theirs is the unofficial anthem of oceanic disasters
I had VIP to one of their shows a few years back and told them that it's how i found out about them lol.
Why is sleeping sun even used for maritime disasters? It’s a crap song anyway
@@Toosplash.I think bcs it correlates with Britannic’s sinking vaguely, mentioning a sea left red and such (which yes, both britannic and the sea was streaked with blood from the lifeboat incident)
@@sp1n4l_sn4p fair point
@@sp1n4l_sn4p probably it also being to the tune of nearer my god to thee. (which, kind of a side note, feels really lazy.)
This is the national anthem for both the Lusitania and the Britannic. Thank you Sam
I ain't ashamed to say that the OG 2007 Britannic - Sleeping Sun video is one of the main things that got me into the boat nerd community!
Safe to say it was a massive nostalgia hit seeing this pop up today.
Sane except I got in from the titanic video, even tho brittanic is my more favourite 😍 👌
same that exact vid
This video made me double check my calendar.
RIP to all those who lost their lives 109 years ago during the sinking of RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915.
May They Never Be Forgotten.
It was impossible to launch the lifeboats due to Lusitania's severe list. Only 6 of 48 lifeboats were launched. Lusitania sank in 18 minutes, 40 minutes faster then Brittanic
It was a combination of a severe list and the fact she sank in only 18 minutes. The Titanic, in contrast, didn't suffer a severe list and stayed afloat for nearly 3 hours.

Going down in 18 minutes while the Titanic took 2 hours and 40 minutes. What a contrast. Great music.
I think a second explosion was the reason she went down quicker could be wrong just what I read
Another epic video from historic travels.
Yes it was epic
Sad, just like Titanic. Really love this song though. Rip to those who were lost. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome nice video props to Jack shows the true beauty of Lusi truly the greatest liner imo
This is incredible :D
Sleeping sun the anthem of Naval disasters!!!
It really is though, I remember like 14 years ago it was all the rage on UA-cam to make montages wrecked ships to this song.
I remember someone used it on a video of the "Estonia" disaster - it was so sad
@@MrSEANDEERE FR I think kost people remeber via the classic Britannic music video!!!
This is incredible 🙂🚢⚓️❤️
Fantastic vid! maybe I should rebuild this famous ship on Minecraft
Or do sleeping sun over the sad twin tower tragedy
Yesss I just read a book on the Lusitania! (Dead Wake by Erik Larson)
This sounds like the newer version of the song. The original version is way better. Somehow the song is used for videos showing sinking ocean liners...
R.I.P to the 1,198 souls who died 109 years ago on this tragic day.
Good job with the animation this video tells the full sinking rip everyone that died
This reminds me of the days I used to make videos for Ocean liners back in 2007 or so on my old youtube channel: Titanic1090345. I used this song in a video for the Empress of Ireland.
Sam and Animator, Wonderful video, so sad. The music was absolutely beautiful.
Amazing it really gives you a feel on the tragedy that happened that day. I like how you included the animation and the movie. Rest in peace to all who perished on the Lusitania that day. Amazing tribute video!
This meme is really making a comeback after a decade of dormancy.
Holy-
It's been years since I watched a ship sinking video set to this song, and my god this gave me one hell of a nostalgia hit.
Bravo sir, you've made my day.
I had a family member “Jacob Chadwick”that was working on the Lusitania he ended up being one of the last people to see the captain alive and he also got some medal for helping to guide passengers but idk what it was.
I just love how sleeping sun became the ship sinking anthem after that one britannic sinking music video from years ago
I like it better then My Heart Will Go On.
This song fits all the shipwreck videos. My favorite is of the Sultana disaster.
Awesome video, and the perfect song choice. Rest in peace to those who lost their lives that day, their memory will never be forgotten.
hey Sam very good video! you did you great job and your friend did a great job.
One of my favorite Nightwish songs, such a beautiful power ballad. Its so interesting to me how somehow this song has evolved over the years into becoming the "Sinking Ship Song" even though Tuomas Holopainen (Composer/Lyricist of Nightwish) originally wrote this song about an eclipse. Somehow it still works either way and now everytime I hear it all I think about is Lusitania, Titanic and Britannic.
I love lusitania
good music taste :)
Very sad but interesting and educational.
Growing up I'd watch videos like this or similar to it.
a war crime on the part of Germany in the WWI, although the Lusitania was carrying ammunition, the submarine should have fired warning shots with the deck gun, then boarded it and if it had ammunition, sunk it but first let the passengers and crew leave the ship safely as it was at the beginning of the WWI
I love the way u incorporated Nightwish into your video. Badass keep em coming
Hi everyone
Nice music Rest in Peace Nice Video Samuel
Nice video Historic Travels
Gone in less than 20 minutes. A massive liner like that. As always it's civilians paying the price of the war.
I'm pretty sure the Germans committed a war crime with this one. Lusitania may have had war contraband in her manifest but they were supposed to give passengers a chance to escape and get away before blowing a hole in her. This sinking was the last straw that pushed the Americans into the war and look where it landed the Central Powers. On the losing side and set in motion the wheels leading to the bigger, bloodier sequel about fifteen years later.
Can you do britannic next
Hi Historic Travels I am a huge fan of your channel. You were one of the main channels that inspired me to make a channel.
Beautiful
Ocean liners were death traps. My head hurts even trying to count all of the lost lives.
Good job directing this man, I wouldn’t of been as good with all of these extras 😂
The Lusitania shows even having enough lifeboats for everyone sometimes doesn't cut it.
Sometimes tragedy just happens. It's the way of life.
The sinking of the Empress of Ireland the previous already proved that.
If a ship sinks too quickly, there simply isn't enough time to launch all the lifeboats, especially if the ship lists heavily to one side, which both the Lusitania and the Empress of Ireland did.
@@GundamVetOh, the empress of Ireland didn’t tilt. It went down on its side completely
Yup. And even the titanic struggled to free her collapsibles near the end at around 2:10am. With one ending up upside down and the other one half flooded with freezing cold water that killed half of its occupants
Love this; i just hope there wont be any 1,2,3,4 cmon shorts ;)
Amazing Sam
HEH? I wasn’t expecting this and you used clips from the movie
HUGE i love it 2: Dangerous
I’ll do one pushup for every like this comment gets. EDIT
I have decided that I will do the pushups in a video once every video on my channel gets 100 views.
No
Maybe you will, maybe you won’t
@@TreeGod.probably not
Make it 15 plz. XD
You better mean that lol😂
It would be a interesting wreck to go see it's a pity there is not more exploration of the wreck.
There isn’t much of it left it’s in shallower waters so has been damaged quite a lot
@@Borninthe80s. Really? There's been a few interesting articles about it the last few years where they been inside the ship.
Great animation. Completely scary szenario. Rip to all who lost their lifes due to this sinking
Great video Sam!
Brings me back to 2009 to old UA-cam and Windows 7
For a second I was like what kind of off brand of sleeping sun is this😂😂
This is the last thing I ever expected 😂
Hey Sam Do you know if they made a game like patroness of the Mediterranean for Lusitania?
I think this song is best fitted towards both Lusitania and Britannic. Titanic is more of my heart will go on
Insane absolutely insane...
The song that introduced me to the HMHS Britannic. ❤
I LIKE TITANIC
Your on a peaceful cruise and then you start to hear “Sleeping Sun” play 😳 you know you going down
Nice one Sam! 😊
Amazing video
Hey Sam...
How do you think the unthinkable?
With an I-th-burg
(say it aloud)
The Titanic 2 project is back up! Thoughts on this?
EXCELLENT!!!!
I have never seen a ship sink as terribly as the Lusitania Titanic.
On the Q&A, you should've done which was the first lifeboat to be successfully launched on the Lusitania
Another fantastic video from Historic Travels.
lovely
The blast in the longitudinal coal bunker dust and military supplies would split her open like a fray bentos can
What a wonder❤
I’ll do 40 pushups for liking this comment because your animation of this video is spectacular
I stopped watching the channel but after watching this video I just jumped back to reality
Well done.
Not bad
I am convinced that somewhere out there is a black and white silent movie about 20 seconds long that somebody filmed from the starboard side on board the Lusitania midship when it was struck by the torpedo. I had to see the impact the way the ship reacted to be absolutely certain that I have seen this video and it is out there somewhere. The huge wall of spray upward is accurate The ship first rocked to port and then listed hard to starboard. Someday in the future it will be "found" just like the video of babe Ruth pointing towards the dugout that ruined that piece of History. There is no piece of history for the Lusitania other than the fact that the film is an interesting view. And yes, people did clutter towards the railing to see the torpedo. Story my great-grandfather told me was that babe Ruth pointed towards a flagpole in center field and hit the flagpole with the ball. I call b***s*** on that urban legend. My great-grandfather was 42 years old on that day and he was just a gullable as everyone else was for that story. I happen to believe what Charlie Root said. "Anybody that knows Charlie Root would know that if any man had pointed towards the center field to hit a homerun he would have landed on his ass on the next pitch" Well said Mr Root. Well said 👍
What is it with this song, and sinking ships?
🚢
My grandad always said the Germans don't care about anyone but them selves this definitely proves it sd yhey where normal passengers
oh... now i see why the ruckuss lol
Funfact-kinda: if you watch this video 4 times, that's how long it took Lusitania to sink.
I ❤
Its beautiful, but i never understood the link. Like, is the song even about people lost at sea?
I knew it it was a other year of this
this is so cool really i love can you make one later with nearer my god to thee please and thanks love your videos.
xd no way you made a sleeping sun video🤣
Didn’t know you did these Sam. Now do one with the HMHS Britannic, and react to the movie whilst choosing clips.
It happen again 1 year after lusitania sank (BRITTANIC)
Hatte Munition an Bord!
Who made this animation? It's so good!
Was it part-time explorer?
Jack Gibson who is the media manager for Tianic Honour and Glory and Ocean Liner Designs he also has the Jack g animations channel
I’m confused…I could swear you said it was travelling for six days due WEST…wasn’t it going EAST?
When will the next video come out
Can we get alot more of the What if senarios maybe some idk non titanic related but other ships like what if olympic never collided with the hawk or if the lusitania was never hit etc
It’s been 3 days since 109
What movie is the live action taken from? I'm sure that one of the actors watching the impact is John Hannah looking exactly like he did as Jonathan in The Mummy.
Sinking of the Lusitania: Terror at Sea
And yeah it’s John Hannah
Just sad there isn't much left of the lusitania time and sea currents and fisherman nets have really beaten it up been pretty good
How did the boat sink 😢
