Thanks for the shout-out Sam! Glad the books made it to you safely, enjoy!
The "propeller blade" was later identified as a rock.
Possibly another reason Jack Grimm didn't find the wreck was that he hadn't really done much historical research beforehand. His only working hypothesis was that the Titanic had sunk east of the ice field that the Californian had stopped in for the night. The two oceanographers from the Scripps Institute who were on his expedition hurriedly did the necessary historical homework to try to correct this oversight.
Now i'm curious what Grimm's reaction when Ballard found the titanic
At first I chuckled when you listed some of Jack Grimm's eccentric expeditions. It was at that point I realized that if I was super rich I'd be out there looking for Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster too. I mean, why the hell not?
One year later this title has gotten a whole new meaning
It’s so nice to see a community of people who all enjoy the same topics, and also a place where nobody is toxic:)
Well this didn’t age well.
This channel is just so darn wholesome. So happy to see it grow!
this thumbnail hasn't aged well
Imagine finding out that you went over it while searching. Just losing your keys and then finding them where you already looked is aggravating enough as is.
I met Robert Ballard in Springfield Massachusetts in 1986. Got to talk with him for few minutes. I asked him about the break up. Got his autograph too. There's also a titanic museum near me in India orchard Massachusetts. It has jj Astras lifebelt on display.
sailors writing songs about specific voyages is a long tradition in the old days of sailing ships, this documentary followed this tradition with that song they had
Expedition Theme Song: "We're gonna fiiiiiiiiind the Titanic!"
The instrument part made me laugh so hard what a random song.
I remember that film. It was on cassette and usually in a bin of other discounted, generic films. I remember getting my dad to buy it, it was like mid 90s. Ken Marshall even did a painting for the cover (
That epic bop sounds like maybe they were attempting to pay homage to “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” by Gordon Lightfoot, which was a pretty big hit in ‘76. It’s not a cheesy song at all (like that Titanic one) and I recommend it if you’ve never heard it, it’s a classic!
After Robert Ballard found the wreck Grimm actually had the nerve to ask Balllard to share in the glory.
Sam playing the violin should be a gif in the discord server lol
