- M/S Estonia, previously Viking Sally (1980--1990), Silja Star (−1991), and Wasa King (−1993), was a cruise ferry built in 1979/80 at the German shipyard Meyer Werft in Papenburg.
The ship sank in 1994 in the Baltic Sea in one of the worst maritime disasters of the 20th century. It is the deadliest shipwreck disaster to have occurred in the Baltic Sea in peacetime, costing 852 lives.
Worst failure was the they could not see the bow visor from the bridge..
14 years old is nothing for a ship
We also have 25-30 years old cruiseferries in service here in Northern Europe. Nothing wrong with them
I’m watching this before going on a ferry over the Baltic Sea actually...
What a crap design. The ramp housing should be part of the ship's main structure, not the vulnerable visor. Visor and ramp should be completely seperate and independent from eachother in both function and position.
Visor, you had one job...ONE JOB!
The lights in the car deck on any ro-ro ferry are never switched off. Especially since they have personnel down there.
That's horrible. RIP the victims.
May God have mercy on their souls. May they rest in peace, all the victims, and may the families and loved ones they left behind be strong enough to deal with their tragic losses.
"The waves TRIED to move the visor"? Those sneaky waves, LOL!
@srvideos2 , is it possible to use this animation in a TV production? Do you know who owns the copyright or is it public domain? Thanks.
Very good simulation! There was no submarine involved and no Bomb exploded. Only the water pressure damaged the front door.
1;50AM is when it finally fell. at night the waves are alot more aggressive than day time
Is it possible the visor could have ripped the hole which they found in the side of the vessel? I never thought of that before..
Even if the front visor and ramp broke, that doesn't explain why it sunk so fast. It should have capsized and remain afloat since the decks below the vehicle deck are watertight, even with all the upper decks filled with water. Does someone know?
Kui seal midagi tähtsat ei olnud siis miks, Estonia Agreement sõlmiti?
"In the end, the Estonia Agreement 1995, a treaty between Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Denmark, Russia and the United Kingdom (though the UK itself is not a Baltic state), declared sanctity over the site, prohibiting its citizens from even approaching the wreck"
Miks taheti M/S Estonia Betooniga katta?
Tuo uppoamisen syy on vielä kertomatta. Kalan syönnin lopetin tuon jälkeen, kun eihän tuolta alueelta pyydettyä kalaa uskalla syödä.
making ramp at the bow is such a rubbish idea.
Yes they were. Mariella was there before the helics. By the way, ManenQ, are you one of the JAIC to say that THIS is true story? Have you been there?
How did the visor survive 14 years of service? Was this the first time the ship experienced this type of weather?
25 years ago RIP
