I apologise if I came off a little harsh. I've watched your entire video backlog, so I noticed it right away and I found it hard to concentrate on the retelling.
For everyone complaining about the audio he's trying out a new total immersion experience for the senses. He literally recorded the story through the air vent of a submarine!
While it seems cool, it doesn't make it easy to listen for all viewers and will cause some of us to just browse the recommendeds to the right and go elsewhere.
Yes. There is a memorial in the Elder Park across the road from the front of the shipyard you saw in the photo. It has plaques on the 4 sides with the names of the sailors and the workers lost. The memorial states why it is there. The last time I saw it there was a wreath of poppies on it. Fairfield's was previously David Elder shipyard and there is a statue of Lady Elder sitting on a throne in a shielded garden. For some reason there is a long narrow pond in the park. There might still be a nurses home called the David Elder.
OK, I listened to it again after reading the comments and aside from another gripping yarn, there is a bit of reverb - I liked the other commenters who suggested it is a full immersion audio soundtrack so I turned up the heat, rubbed some diesel in my eyes and put out the lights - I was there!
Personally i got into the story so much that i didn't notice anything wrong with the sound. I even watched the vid a second time and sounds just fine to me but thats just my opinion.
Same, watching on a tablet. Went to the comments and found out. If we only had these nit pickers on the sub in the story, wouldn't have sunk. If it sunk, the nit pickers go down with it,win, win.
The K class were jolly good und wee ain’t tauking no cock effya sleek ills of her! So the test depth was so shallow that she could easily exceed it with her bow while her stern was still half out the water? So she couldn’t turn & regularly collided with shit? So she was quite fond of killing ‘er English crew? So she sometimes exploded if she sprung a leak in the covers over her (retractable) funnels? So the sailors in the boiler room had to work in 15 minute shifts because it was always over like 120 degrees in there? She wuz the King’s Submarine, and it pleasured us English, right?
@@nikolaideianov5092 That might work better, for the heat and weight of the boilers plus their stacks and air induction made those subs so unwieldy and prone to flooding. The crews hated them they stank of fuel oil and were hot as heck.
This channel is UA-cam done right. Truly your story telling never fails to paint the most vivid of pictures in my minds eye. ( audio is fine to me by the way ) Another job well done bringing us a not well known story, God speed mate! Until the next one!
even though they're calling it "operator error" I'd still call it a design defect - it sounds like the crew had to close the values then flip a switch to indicate ready in the control room. The control room should get an electrical signal indicating those doors are all closed, not rely on meat to provide an accurate account of a super-critical state.
The design defect was the British Admiralty. The K-Class was designed with a steam engine, which doomed it to having poor maneuverability. So naturally, now that the British have a sluggish sub with poor response times on the engine, the Admiralty dictates that the K-Class is to sail in formation with the Home Fleet. Yes, they wanted a submarine to participate in battles like Jutland like it was any other ship. A ship type that at the time was slower and less maneuverable than literally the rest of the fleet even before the poor design of the K-Class gets involved. You better hope you never have fog when the home fleet sets out. Too bad for the Royal Navy, they DID end up having exactly that. K1: Collided with K4 off of the coast of Denmark on Nov 18 1917. Was scuttled to prevent capture. K4: Had said collision with K1. Made it back to port. On Jan 31, 1918, Said Fog happened. K4 was hit by K6 AND then K7. All hands lost. Also, it once ran around in Jan 1917. K5: Lost due to what is believed to be exceeding crush depth on Jan 20, 1921 in a mock battle. K6: Struck K4 due to Said Fog as well as a bunch of other chaos going on that day. Survived with a damaged bow. K7: Struck K4 due to said Fog as well as a bunch of other chaos going on that day. Survived with a damaged keel. Yes, Keel. It ran over the K5. K12: Once got stuck at the bottom of Gareloch. They got lucky and were able to refloat themselves. K13: This video...AND then later due to that SAME Fog and the chaos it caused collded with K14 as K22. Neither sunk K14: See K13 for what happened to it K15: it found a way to sink when moored on Jun 25, 1921 due to hydraulic oil expanding in the heat only to contract overnight that day resulting in the diving vents managing to open. This was a month after having water find its way into the furnaces and making her sink stern first to the bottom, but in that case the crew managed to react quickly enough to resurface the sub K16: Same exact story as K12. K17: The reason K4, K6, K7, K13/22, and K14 ended up crashing into each other was because they were all trying to NOT hit K17. K17 meanwhile was busy trying to not sink due to being hit by a fucking BATTLECRUISER, the HMS Fearless. The class was a fucking disaster story.
@@Daedwartin2 The real story is more nuanced. When we think of 'steam engines' we think of clunky old piston engines with their maze of levers and pushrods. These were state-of-the-art Parsons steam turbines which turned the unacceptably-slow diesel-powered prototype into a high-performance machine, easily able to outpace the surface ships (when surface running). Impressive performance for that time. Remember, submarine warfare was new, and at the time (1913) subs were expected to travel ahead of surface fleets. Taking advantage of their stealth came later. The poor maneuverability was simply due to the 339 ft length, not choice of powerplant. We can laugh today at the notion of steam-powered submarines, but of course the modern nuclear submarine is just that. Only the boiler is different. I think the Royal navy was gutsy to try such an unusual approach, and although the concept ultimately failed I do have respect for innovators who can think outside the box.
@@Daedwartin2Have you read the book too? I got mine in Govan itself. A stall on a street corner and I wanted something to read on my way home. Dead cheap too.
Cannot believe all the people crying in the comments over your free, professionally produced niche documentary. Imagine being down there, that'd give you something to complain about! Top job, keep cranking these out!
I am learning a lot from these disaster videos. Never hike in Russia, don't sail into storms and never participate in a submarine sea trial. Seriously I greatly enjoy the storytelling and detail of these Waterline Stories. Probably my favorite narration.
Well the yard where they built HMS Hood, RMS Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth are further down the river. In Govan, near the Institute, I found Water Row. As you walked down it your feet started splashing.
alternatively -- it's amazing they were able to build and run this sub, given that underwater technology looked like THAT at the time. I mean, k13 looks an operates just like a modern sub, over 100 years ago, when diving suits still had diving bells and umbilicals on them

I was wondering when someone would cover one of the K class's many accidents! Well, besides the "battle" of May island anyway, that seems to be the only K class calamity the gets mentioned.
@@123JWhyte The K-class review is noteworthy because unlike all of his other reviews about half of the runtime is dedicated to accidents and they are pretty much all horrible. The K-class might very well be the worst submarines produced in large numbers in history.
A good book is simply called "The K Boats". Well worth the read. I actually love k boats and to a degree they were a really feasible idea to a problem. Micro Mir do two lovely 1/350th models one without and one with the "Swan" bow.
The k-class was about 340 ft. long. With a crush depth of 250ft or so. So a k-class could literally stick its nose into crush depth epth while the stern is sticking up OUT OF THE WATER.
Seventeen of these submarines were completed, and the last one, K26, was finally scrapped in 1931. K20 had been converted to an M-class diesel sub, packing an enormous twelve inch deck gun in addition to its torpedo tubes.
The K-Class is legendary for how bad the design was, how many sailors it killed & the RN’s inexplicable decision to commission despite damn well knowing how dangerous it was. Drachinfel has an extremely in-depth episode regarding its design and political history.
.... and now most Submarines are Steam powered. Even Diesel electric are, as some AIP (Air Independent Propulsion) systems like the French MESMA AIP module is a closed cycle steam turbine that uses an Ethanol and Oxygen mix for fuel. It operates at 60 bar pressures.

It’s a genuinely accepted by submariners that this may happen. It could be them or others that make the sacrifice. Doors are closed and the doorman about faces so he can’t see through the window in the door.

...didn't some british admiral literally say something along the lines of: "the biggest mistake you could make, is building a steam powered submarine" ?! I'm pretty sure.
Excellent, as always. Thank you. This one made my blood boil, what incompetence and cowardice from the captain. He fails to make the submarine watertight before diving, drowning half its crew, then escapes and leaves them behind. Was he punished in any way for killing all those men? I don't believe air bubbles can carry anyone along, they're just air and if anything they'd reduce your buoyancy or am I missing something?
He would have little control of himself in water. People are slightly buoyant while alive. Water currents could easily move him. He happen to go up and there is no way back.
