  • FTW is this? So fat ship...

  • What is that? That looks nothing like lusitania.

  • hey can i give you an idea?

    i use that when i'm in sketchup

    for blak windows

    make in paint or in other peint progra a texture that is a paint of the windows

    and import it in sketchup

    some times you need to re import them but at the end it looks nice

  • stupid germans they did it

  • Titanic soundtrack

  • Not a bad work. However, I have one minor gripe. When Lusitania was torpedoed, her funnels were painted all black, something most people don't remember. This was during World War I, so, most passenger liners had painted their funnels black, so as to not cut a huge silhouette on the ocean.

  • Sorry, but this model is wrong!

  • wtf, this is terrible! the funnels were full black! you spelled "during" wrong in the opening sentences!

  • only in time of war.

  • that is shite

  • Model is not well done, must be thinner than that. If you want, I'll make you one, so you could relaunch this video again!... My name in SketchUp Image Bank is Mc Ovronnaz. Find me, test me and choose me to build you a true LUSITANIA model. You'll be able to receive 5 of these: ***** See you soon on SketchUp!

  • U-Boats were used in WWII so was the lusitania so you got that part wrong

  • they were also used in world war one

  • why all big ships sink ?

  • Not all, you've got Queen Mary (I and II), Olympic etc. But most of those that sank was torpedoed or blown up by some other country military machine...

  • cuz it's dangaruos for them to be wondering around in oceans especially when subs a patroling.

  • paint the funnels black

  • this is google sketchup 6 - possible with sketchyphysics

  • It never sank? What a...! Lustiania sank on 7th may in 1915 by the german submarine U20 commanded by Walther Schwieger for the irish coast.

  • the britannic sank hit by mine in the mediterrainean.

  • Britannic was mined in the Aegean. The Lusitania was torpedoed by a U-Boat and it pissed off the Americans to the point where they joined the war AGAINST Germany just about two years later.

  • Hey, it was really LUSITANIA who was sunk by torpedo!!! The BRITANNIC was sunk by a mine when entering in a mine field, near the Greek island of Kea! This is the 1st justification. Here are the next ones:

    -->Britannic had only one compartment flooded. Was not supposed to sink, but its watertight doors weren't functioning correctly;

    -->The captain tried to beach the ship in Kea, but was too late;

    -->From people onboard(crew/wounded), only sixteen, I think, died because of the ship's blades.

  • Most of the thirty one casulties were killed by the propellers. 29 died because of the propellers, the other two died in and explosion. As the boats were lowered the Captain was trying to beach her as you said. So as soon as the falls were disconnected from the boat the propellers began to draw the boats in as they rose out of the water. Also the BRITANNIC was still moving as she sank.

  • hi, could u tell me what program this please.

    thanks

  • slim it down a bit and make the bridge wider

  • wow.nice

  • SUPPOSEDLY the Germans sank the Lucitania, nice animation though.

  • pretty good except HOW FAT THE BOAT IS

  • That sketchup model sucks.

  • why are the funnels red and not black?

  • they were red before she sank

  • cool!

  • In english a U-Boot is a submarine!!

  • do you mean a U-Boat ?

  • u spelt minute wrong

  • dude this is good but where are you getting your info. I'm a Lusitania historian and alot of this info i haave not ever herd of. Two lifeboats there were only six safely lowered. And no were i have herd of her third funnel falling of the ship. She was not the only liner sailing in the war. This is very good but look over your info.

  • well, I thought two boats were acctually LOWERD... but another four boats fell into the water while being lowerd, and people clamberd onto them

  • are you sure they were reddish orange? because in the lusitania movie they were black =\

  • yep they were reddish orange. darker than Titanics.

  • Well, they actually were, but in WWI They were painted black. I don't know why, so that answers questions about black funnels. They were originally red, but painted black in the war.

  • Where did you get that they were painted black during the war?? I have read a lot regarding this ship and never came across that piece of information. I am curious whether is true. Do you have the source?.

  • I read it in a book... I forget what it's called, though. (I checked it out of a library) Just research it... I'm sure you can find it somewhere.

  • All pictures of the ship are black and white. So, there was no colour on the funnels and they were black. In real life colour they were red

  • You should see Ken Marshall's painting of the LUSITANIA before her final voyage, and their black. They were painted black during the war so the enemy side (Germany, I suppose) wouldn't know what shipping line and country she was from.

  • That does not make any sense. Why would they want to "disguise" a passanger liner into something "unknown" during the war when what actually protected the ship (in theory at least) was precisely that was in fact a passenger liner. That would've been stupid from them. Besides the German always knew the ship's route and itinerary to extent that they sent many messages to passengers not to board the ship cause it was a military target.

  • You make good points, but that's what they did. I suppose it was because if they didn't know what line it was from, they wouldn't know what country it was from and would be unsure whether to sink it or not. Being inconspicuious. The Warning post to the LUSITANIA passengers came out the day before or of the voyage. It was a year after WWI started and civilians didn't know everything going on we do now from history books.

  • The thing is that no one seems to be sure whether they were painted or not. Everything I said was based on the painting of the funnels as a guess (i didn't know either), if in fact they were, well, obviously it had to make sense at the time for the people who did. I still beleive it was a very poor strategy, after all the ship was sunk, right?.

  • What's the "club-penguin"??

  • club penguin is a online multiplayer you are a penguin relly i used to play it

  • Nice... just... there were SIX lifeboats successfully launched, not two. And I thought that the ship had black smokestacks.
