ОтветитьTwo years after the Titanic tragedy the world decended into hell
ОтветитьI bet they called him smudge.
ОтветитьCaptain E J Smith wasn't born in Lichfield, he didn't even live in Lichfield. So, why honour him in Lichfield? I mean, why not Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent? 🤨
Lich (noun) dialectal, British : a dead body : corpse.
His plague does not even mention the Titanic. No need. They erected a statue of Captain Edward John Smith in a city that was named for being a Field of the Dead. 1500 perished. Say no more.
The whole Titanic thing sounds very Jesuit, Masonic and diabolical.
My cousin's great great uncle was Cpt Edward J Smith, It had always been a great shame on the family, with my cousins great great grandad, Edwards brother calling him a "Bloody Fool", RIP Edward.

ОтветитьIs he the bloke that Captain Birdsye was Characterised by ??? 😂
ОтветитьThere was a ship called the Great Eastern hit an iceberg and did the same amount of damage but stayed afloat because it was built right
ОтветитьIf the Germans would have built the Titanic it would not have sunk
ОтветитьCaptain Smith yelled Be British. So they all stood around complaining and being passive aggressive to each other.
ОтветитьA thoroughly incompetent captain in charge of an incompetent crew all hailed as heroes.
Ответитьthe Mount Temple
ОтветитьIt's amazing to me how many illustrations show smoke coming out of the 4th funnel when it was not connected to a furnace but was used to provide oxygen/air to the boiler room.
ОтветитьDamn. Just literally 2 days from retirement.
ОтветитьHe lived in Liverpool aswell.
ОтветитьToday is April 14th so tonight is truly "A Night to Remember"
ОтветитьWhen General Patton was confronted by the German Siegfried Line, a Stars and Stripes reporter asked him if he thought he could defeat this impregnable defensive line. He answered: "The Siegfried Line is just one more of mankind's monuments of stupidity. Anything made by man, can be unmade." What true words he spoke. Perhaps those in the media back then, should have thought of that when they proclaimed the Titanic to be unsinkable
ОтветитьSmith can’t be held at fault for the loss of his ship. Sailing at 22 kts in a potential ice field was standard practice in the day. It sounds ludicrous today with hindsight, but that’s what they did. However, multiple witnesses reported later that Smith’s conduct once he grasped the enormity of his predicament was beneath contempt.
ОтветитьShip build to be sunken. Want to know the truth? follow the money.
ОтветитьI believe Capt.Smith could have saved most if not ALL on board Titanic. It is an undisputed fact that a stationary ships light could be seen on the horizon- most probably the Californian. Had Capt. Smith ordered full speed ASTERN and headed for that light it would have IMPEDED the inflow of water into the ship by creating a suction effect and after approx 1 hrs steaming at 10 knots he would be within touching distance of the said ship. The ships boats would have been used to trans ship everyone aboard.
ОтветитьHe was a hero and a classy gentleman ..bottom line he did his best to save women and children first and then he went down with the ship.
ОтветитьMr Thomas Andrews! director of Harland and Wolff. Rose and cal hockey! Going to America to Mary💀
Ответитьeva hart says dreadful way too much in every interview she gave
ОтветитьOlympic not the Titanic. Stop continuing the lie.
ОтветитьKind of an incompetent captain on this voyage.
Ответитьthe titanic ship is big but you can't see the ocean-sized ship on the globe
ОтветитьHe was no hero.
In my opinion he was reckless, how he took a ship on it's maiden voyage with excessive speed. Knowing there were no binoculars available in the crow's nest that night. Plus he has been warned about ice bergs on his route. He knew very well during that period of the year, there were going to be icebergs on that particular route, yet he took no precautions. He was entirely responsible for all the lives that were lost.
GOT THAT RIGHT!
"The biggest question of all is whether Rush was too cavalier about the experimental vessel, which was never certified by a regulatory body and had raised safety concerns. "I'm struck by the similarity of the Titanic disaster itself, where the captain was repeatedly warned about ice ahead of his ship, and yet he steamed full speed ahead into an ice field on a moonless night, " director James Cameron told ABC News. And so many people died as a result."
he didn't do anything wrong. all the other captains testified they would have done the same thing captain smith had done. it was common practice at the time. the end. end of story. ish happens. that is life. sometimes you freeze to death in the north atlantic under the brightest stars you've ever seen after putting your life in the hands of the WHITE STAR LINE.... they forshadowed this tragedy with there damn company name and the SHIP NAME!!! from the book written 15 years prior exactly describing what would happen (basically). guess what the book was called? THE TITAN! just like the dam sub that just imploded LOLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.... oh jesus stop. it's too much
ОтветитьPORQUE FIZERAM UMA ESTATUA DESSE CAPITAO SMITH FOI UM HEROI OQUE ELE FEZ ????
ОтветитьSmith was an arrogant asshole that is responsible for 1500 senseless deaths. He should be remembered as a monster that dove off the ship in his underoos.
ОтветитьThe ship at the opening is NOT the Titanic...
"Be British" a MYTH...
By Speeding through ice while others have stopped for the night?
Gimme a break...🤭That's an insult British Mariners
Man that Titan sub really has really led me down the rabbit hole…😂🤦🏿♂️
ОтветитьAccording to some documentaries he was a bit over confident.
ОтветитьHe should have slowed down. If he could relive that moment, that's what he would do.
ОтветитьAND YET....it was his overweening desire to please the arrogant idiot Bruce Ismay, who, not content with being aboard the grandest ocean liner which ever sailed...wanted to set a speed record crossing the Atlantic. SMITH ultimately as CAPTAIN, put obligation to Social Class before Common Sense...
As a result, Smith went down with the monument to arrogance.. but by God, ISMAY, the author of such soulless tragedy
DID NOT
"Into the Valley Of Death rode The Six Hundred"
That happened A LOT, it would seem....
..
Good God ! They actually created a statue to this man. He was the main reason for the disaster which killed hundreds of passengers. Only the pompous teflon English would do such a thing. The E.J. stood for EJit.
ОтветитьCaptain smith and stockton rush both overconfident fools
ОтветитьImagine a lifetime sailing the seas culminated in the sinking of the Titanic? There's nothing romantic about freezing and drowning to death in the North Atlantic.
ОтветитьPilot error killed all those people. He was an egotistical fool.
ОтветитьThat big POS went down.
Ответитьsmith may have been liked by the rich but he was no hero, he failed his ship, his crew, and his passengers their deaths was his responsibility, he was warned about the ice dangers but steamed on recklessly at full speed , even if under pressure from his boss his command was the final say.
ОтветитьImagine being awakened to die😢
ОтветитьWhats with the Awful Singing?
ОтветитьThis video is full of inaccurate statements. It’s actually kind of pathetic.
ОтветитьI feel bad for everyone that night but even especially for the captain. He must have felt horrible around everybody them final moments, and yet so desperate. Because he's in charge of the ship and responsible for all on board. I just couldn't imagine how awful that would be. He done all he could.
ОтветитьTypical tough Potter and pure Stoke
ОтветитьBorn and Bred. Stoke on Trent
ОтветитьThe rich man's nerd!
