  • Kuka sai selvää tosta estonian aivan viimeisestä sanasta minusta se sanoi jotain " sanoit"

  • :(((((

  • I just cry..... but this was very sad day.......I was 2 years old when this ship sinks I am form estonia

  • Nobody actually knows why this ship did go to the bottom of the sea. Some say that the waves were so hard that they crushed the ship, some say that it was watermines from ww2. Some even say that its just politics.

  • @Peju85 true facts and documents

  • Its natrural reaction to disturbing things to see and feel, so dont get too bothered about it. All those who makes the "funny jokes" feels just as bad as you feel.

    Find ich ja richtig erschreckend das ich auf meinem kleinen Kahn nach Stromausfall noch 2,5 Std GPS habe und noch 1,5 Std Notrufe absetzen kann, auch wenn das Schifflein 90grad im Wasser liegt. Darüber hinaus sollte man nen Mayday einfach absetzen und nicht versuchen die RCCs zu erreichen, andere Schiffe sind verpflichtet den Funkspruch per Mayday Relay weiter zu leiten. Darüber hinaus schmeißt man auch gleich ne EPIRB über board, zumindest wenn man an sinken ist.

  • guys just be fair, show respect. Those guys were unprofessional? Don´t think so, they made some really good decisions. At the time of the mayday conversion there have been the first casualties (passengers already have drowned in their outer cabins). At the time of the mayday call, the list was about 50 degrees, the bridge touched the water. At 1.30 in the morning, the Estonia capsized and went to the bottom of the Baltic Sea. As i said before, all people on Estonia side in this call have died.

  • @evotelix Du solltest dich besser informieren, bevor du hier irgendwelche Vermutungen in den Raum stellst. Das GPS ist ausgefallen (Blackout), wenn ich es richtig gelesen habe, zeigt es auch bei Stromausfall noch 15 Minuten lang die Position an. Die Mayday Conversion wurde nicht mit dem stationären Funkgerät gemacht (geht auch schlecht- siehe Bridge Layout und die Schräglage zu dem Zeitpunkt) sondern mit einem Walkie-Talkie.
