The Carpathia Returns with Titanic Survivors - I

[xxvietbebe]

so haunting ......

[ultradumbass]

ironically almost every ship somehow involved in the titanic went to their watery graves. the olympic, titanic's sister is one of few ships to get the distress signal to not sink. carpathia sank by a submarine in the mediterranean regions in 1918, even the california sank. the ships involved with the empress of ireland including its sinker sank. even the u-boat crew that sank the lusitania died a couple of years later on another submarine. if a ship is involved in a shipwreck, it's cursed.

[BadManAks2]

the hero carpithia never had a hero of its own. it sank alone. who knows if anyone survived or not. but all im saying is that carpithia is a true hero

[Alligator2394]

this gives me chills <333

[miniadler]

That's not from 18 April... it was about 22 o'clock when Carpathia reached NY with Titanics surviors

[japeeisalwaysthebest]

@EinsatzgruppenSpeed no

[BillyAndJoshBrothers]

@EinsatzgruppenSpeed titanic was bigger

[DanielHami23]

I Just want to say that I'm very pleased that Carpathia came to the rescue at her best speed cause the Carpathia was the only one who actually believed that the Titanic was sinking She braved the ice field just to try and help the ship in need well she was to late but she tried and managed to rescue 700 survivors from the titanic.

I want to thank the R.M.S.Carpathia and her crew for rescuing the survivors of that tragic night.

Carpathia and her crew are heroes

[ultradumbass]

@DanielHami23 uhhhhhh no......

several ships got the signal first. in fact the carpathia didn't get the signals until 30 minutes later. the olympic and several other ships were coming but the carpathia was the only one that responded close enough to make a difference. also people keep blaming the california's captain wrongfully. it wasn't the law to have wireless at all hours, in fact legally the titanic should have stopped. the titanic also gave the wrong flares and the captain was sleeping.

[DanielHami23]

@EinsatzgruppenSpeed no cause The Carpathia weight about 13,555 to while Titanic weight about 46,000 tons or so. So Titanic was larger

[michaeljacksonabc5]

@EinsatzgruppenSpeed Titanic! It was the biggest ship in the world!

[honortheallies]

my great great grandmother was on that ship with my great grandmother at that time and when my great great grandmother said dont leave the cabin my great grandparents did and saw the titanic passengers. its really sad what happened to those innocent people. god bless them

[emoviebuff87]

why did they think titanic was unsinkible? theres no such thing!!

[mindspring57]

Typical British smugness and arrogance. The ship was designed to stay afloat with any two watertight compartments flooded. They envisoned an accident in which a single compartment might be opened to the sea, or where two might be, if the accident occurred at a seam. For some reason, they could not foresee the possibility of a gash from an iceberg that ripped open five of them. The ship was not designed with that sort of thing in mind.

[dounowmuffin69]

@emoviebuff87 arrogance and experience really, ismay the owner of white star,the company that made the ship figured that with water tight walls and the abiltiy of the first or last 2 compartments filling and still float it would be fine but the gash for the berg opened many little holes in the first 5. and there was no water tight ceilings so when it started to sink it overflowed to each compartment. stupidity killed this ship

[mnwht7kgp1]

this is the scariest video ive seen...i dont know why, but i really dont like black and white, mute videos...and knowing the story behind it...its just creepy for me...

[1912RMSTitanic1912]

curnard still working until today but wat about WSL?

[felipe929258]

In 1934 the line merged with its chief rival, Cunard Line, which operated as a separate entity until 2005 and is now part of Carnival Corporation & PLC.

[andrewf1975]

My grandfather was the Radio Officer on The Carpathia when it was struck by three torpedoes from U boat U55 and sunk on July 17, 1918, west of Fasnet.

[flargmuffin92]

Stanley Lord of the Californian...pssh theres a dumbshit for a captain, "lets warn the ship then go to bed"

=P

Had the germans not have nailed her during the first world war, the Carpathia would have made a fine museum ship, an awesome walk through history and a lookback at one of the worlds worst disasters...

[beserker1912]

the guy from the californian was insulted by the titanic morse operaters, so he probably thought "u know what, they probably know of the ice, im going to sleep. " the carpathia would be SOOO run down.

[gab1971]

the titanic told californian not to rescue them!

[beserker1912]

no, they told the californian to shut up, then the californian went to bed. the titanic couldnt get in touch for the rest of the night.

[Tartans08]

The Oceanic Steam Navigation Company or White Star Line of Boston Packets, more commonly known as the White Star Line, was a prominent British shipping company, most famous for its ill-fated luxury flagship, the RMS Titanic, and the World War I loss of her sister ship, Britannic. In 1933, the line merged with its chief rival, Cunard Line, which operated as a separate entity until 2005 and is now part of Carnival Corporation & PLC. Get your history right!

[walyern]

Actually, the White Star Line was much more known for its liners ramming thing (other ships, piers, ICEBURGS) as well as groundings. Celtic ran aground so hard that she had to be scrapped on the spot.

[pabloernesto19]

good quality or never happens

[wweecwha]

the wire loss operator wont working

[jantwennyeytty]

It's very sad

[Bransiman]

is so sad to watch the real moment when carpathia returns with survivors.

[ZacharyWDS17]

You have to wonder how different things would be if the Californian would of at least checked on the flares. The Titanic casuality count probably wouldnt of reached 100. And of course now we dont even have the Carpathia, germans saw to that.

Thanks for sharing this peice of history, Ive never seen footage of Carpathia before, just some still images.

[wweecwha]

gosh

[PhsycoSam]

wow how cool to see this history.

[dervaty]

exelent video

[gcharlottefan1]

thats so haunting.

[viewer2fun]

It looks different from Titanic. Is this the Titanic? It only has one smoker thing in the air and the other boat I seen has three

[TheUpsideDownShip]

Do you even read the title?

[JackieMagenta]

It's the Carpathia, fuckrod.

[11yearoldboy]

I kno

[emilysweety]

gsoh, in tears...

[kcrandomness]

The Californian idntrespon rightaway, even though itwascloser to the wreck than the Carpatis, because its wireless radio/morse coe was off.

[wweecwha]

it wont working

[Enkonga]

Captain Rostron deserves credit, but let´s not forget the wireless operator

Harold Cottom, who awakened Rostron.

And I think the Californian would have saved a lot people if Carpathia would´nt

have arrived, because Californian came to the sinking place just a few hours

after Carpathia.

I wonder just how many people hated the captain of the Californian afterwords,

because he did´nt react to the white flares from the Titanic?

[BamBogleBlaster]

The Californian did deliver ice warnings to Titanic, though, until Titanic's wireless operator told them to shut up.

[Tecato22]

It was Californian.

[Tecato22]

Actually, I want to say: Fuck all of those stupid german people shooting down Carpathia and the hole crew by their stupid WW1 submarine U-55 in 1919.

[Ferrygirl82]

David Rostron lives in Liverpool, paphos71.

[camf33]

Rostron was an angel for this people in despair.

May God bless him whether he's alive or not!!

[paphos71]

Captain Arthur Rostron died in 1940 at the age of 71. His grandson David is still alive and well and lives in Bolton, Lancashire, he's a nice chap and the spitting image of his famous grandad.

[FoxyJuliet82]

captain Rostron, mass respect to that guy, what a hero.

[MidsomerTube]

Captain Rostron was a truly awesome man.

[Voxac100b]

Capt Rostrons rescue effort was truly great his efforts were so good from pushing the ship to beyond its max speed to even giving up his own cabin on the return journey to New York to place survivors in. Truly worthy of the word Hero.

[gvbooth1]

thats a huge boat!!!!

[tscastro114]

Just six years after Carpathia saved Titanic's Survivors, she was sunk by a German U-boat. Her wreck was found in 2000 by Dirk Pitt Author: Clive Cussler.

[lizzy305]

Not to say that it is right, but back then they said women & children first b/c it was believed men had a better chance of surviving if not in a life-boat.

...so I have heard.

[zeebee75]

Molly Brown gave Captain Rostron an award for his service.

And, i think it's so mean that back then, WOMAN AND CHILDREN FIRST AND USUALLY ONLY.

What's wrong with Men?

I'm a girl and I think it's wrong.

[xoxwembleyxox]

They wanted women and children first because women were the child bearers and children are the future. It's pretty sad when we think about it now, but back in 1912 that's how they were.

[jmewho]

hopefully we still are!

[swanningaround]

What? I have never heard of this! "They wanted women and children first because women were the child bearers and children are the future." It goes back to the sinking of HMS Birkenhead in 1852. The men acted honourably and adopted this protocol. While not official, it was often followed. Women and children were considered weaker and less like to survive under and "every man for himself" regime.

[dean11081988]

although i agree with whot your saying i would like to think that it goes back more than that the 1852 thing might be the first recorded time this happened but i think the officers on board any ship would would have made this hapen but you do know yor stuff good luck

[toobyu2859]

So in the pc present, we would load the men on equally with the women and children? I hope you are very young, so that you have many years to learn about chivalry, and doing the right thing.

[sherman190]

is this real

[horeyguy53149]

yea

[selondonerlad]

Captain Athur Rostron of The Carpathia, deserved a knighthood for what he did. After all Carpathia was the only ship that came to the site of the sinking.

[samborghini]

Yeh he manged to 17 kts out of a 12kt ship and dodged like 7 icebergs
