      This is why tanker ships like these have the quick release, gravity dropped life raft at the rear (you can see the slot for it). If a tanker is going down… you’re probably not going to have enough time to lower a conventional life boat.

    The sounds it makes while going down i allways asked myself from watching "das Boot" if you really heard these metal creaking sounds under water. But you can even hear it above water so it must be really loud on a hydrophone. Also the way it just speeds down into the ocean at around 1:25 is crazy imagine you are still on the ship and you think "yeah at this rate we got another 2 minutes before it sinks" but then suddenly it speeds up and almost looks like the ship just entered a hyperspace portal and disappears in seconds.

    Hello there i am engine cadet and hopefully a furure merchant marine mechanic.As far as i know the bulck carriers(the type of ship that transfers like iron,coal,dirt,sand...) are very dangerous ships.They go down like the other ones until one of their cargo holds starts filling with water(yes they are kind of waterproof the hatch covers but not fully) and as they fill with water the sinking event is sped up.Each one that fills with water it increases the speed of sinking, its like the snowball efect on the stock market strats from almost unnoticeable and eventually it takes a matter of seconds as shown to the video.

      Yep you are absolutely right. I’m doing mechanical engineering so we’re in similar fields. This is precisely what happened with the Titanic and how most ships with hull compartments go down. Compartments flood into each other one by one until the weight of the water is too much and eventually drags the rest of the hull down with it. Pretty cool but terrifying to see physics in action like this

    • @grandduchyoflovendara3516
      @grandduchyoflovendara3516 2 місяці тому

      Another good example of this phenomenon was MV Derbyshire, a British bulk carrier able to carry both ore and oil built in the mid-1970's. She encountered Typhoon Orchid on the coast of Japan on September 9, 1980 which blew one of the foredeck hatches, letting seawater to flood the bow which sank lower into the large waves spraying overhead. This led to a cascade event in which the lowered bow allowed more seawater to pour above the deck, causing more hatches to burst and fill with seawater. She eventually sank and found at the seafloor in 1994. About 44 people lost their lives in the sinking, accounting for all the crew present on board during that fateful day
