I've always loved the Nat Geo documentaries over the years. But I really love the "Drain the Ocean" series. Technology today that helps find these underwater wrecks and then helps to scan them in 3-D like a model is just fantastic. I'm waiting for the tech that allows you to walk through these ships as if they were on the surface through some kind of hologram-ish type of thing projected down to the wreck, eliminating the danger of actually having to dive to it. Just a thought. 🤔 Anyways, loved the video and can't wait for more!! 😁👍

Alot of these sunken vessels are also sites of memorial, mass sea graves and in some cases house a spectacular ecosystem of flora and fauna, if the hologram would ever be able to scan the internal of these vessels you'd have to have permission and a lot of nerve to wander around them, even if it's only digitally, my grandfather was sunk on an allied merchant ship and if a James Cameron would want to document the internals of that ship and they came for me for permission I would have to let alot of historians down, sometimes it is better to simply not know these kind of things...

There were model kits available as a kid which had freighters with hidden guns on deck, but the Germans definitely took it to the next level.

My Father's uncle was a seaman on the Sydney, he died just hours before they were due to take that fateful voyage from a fall out of a 2nd story window of the building they were housed in. He got up in the wee small hours to go to the toilet, and as was the custom before a mission all the crew had been having their fill of liquid refreshments the night before, and in his befuddled state he turned right instead of left and walked straight off the balcony. Broke his neck... If he had not have died in the fall and just been injured he would've stayed ashore and been the only surviving crew member of the ship...

The German raiders were not warships camouflaged as merchant ships. It was the other way around, merchant ships carrying concealed armament. It was the job of these raiders to sink enemy merchant ships. They were not meant to engage enemy warships such as the Sydney. That is why the captain of the Kormoran, Detmers, had no choice but to try and lure the Sydney into point blank gunfire range and surprise the Sydney and Detmers succeeded in doing that.. Six officers and 70 odd crew of the Kormoran lost their lives. The Captain, Theodore Detmers, and the rest of the crew spent the remainder of the war as pow's in Australia.

This could have been a good documentary if the presented scientific data wouldn't have been messed up right from the start. 3:03: Heavy water is not "chemically hydrogen". It's water. You've cut out the essential part that it's made from Deuterium ("heavy hydrogen") and oxygen, and that Deuterium is chemically hydrogen, but has twice the weight of normal hydrogen. 3:50 Heavy water was mainly required as a moderator, so natural Uranium could be used. Of course it also worked for cooling, but that was not the main purpose. 4:00 They produced (almost) 1000 kilos of heavy water _in_ _total_. Without that last part, the information is useless. I'm not going to mention the rest, if already after 4 minutes the mistakes pile up. Sad to see that the level of exactness has decreased so much at national geographic.

@@ct1762 The very same scientific community that was heavily funded due to the threat of the German Nuclear weapon were the ones that conducted the inspection. It was in their financial interest which is number one for anyone for their opponents to be very dangerous. Even today warriors are judged by how great their foes are, so NO, I don't believe the report was a conspiracy, and this history of the German development of the bomb by Heisenberg was shown to have floundered. The fact is that they got a head start on the US, but never actually came close to completing their bomb. I do agree that the victor in wars always drags the vanquished through the mud further justifying the war and the defeat, demonizing them, but that doesn't have anything to do with this. On top of that the American scientific community continued to get funding for going on to develop the H-Bomb with the new nuclear boogeyman threat, Russia. I do agree that Germany was ahead with other technology like rockets and turbojet engines, but that doesn't prove they were ahead with a nuclear weapon.

@@fredflintstone8048 no i agree with you what i said is all conjecture at best. i was just saying you have to wonder how accurate all of his was after the war. the Russians must have stolen our research... as i highly doubt if the Germans couldnt do it and they could? maybe im wrong there.

Thank you very much for this very good re-telling of the Kormoran vs HMAS Sydney battle. I have an indirect connection with Sydney because had he lived one of the officers, SubLt Edwin Ross Eddy, would have become my wife's uncle.

Great doc. History can surely teach us a lot. Mostly, that certain times of it must never be allowed to manifest and repeat themselves.

Ant - We need to be VERY aware of the techniques used by Hitler, Mussolini, trump ... And AS SOON as possible take effective action to derail them.

“If one doesn’t study history, your doomed to repeat it”. It looks like the World is heading into a possible WW3? With Russia at war with Ukraine, China trying to invade Taiwan. Russia has also threatened nuclear war with Ukraine, if that happens? It’s only a matter of time that the US will get involved and WW3 will start! Oh, let’s not forget about the Christian’s getting slaughtered in Africa…I’m ready for the rapture. May God come down and take the wicked🙏. Please pray for those Christians in Africa as well, they’re not getting enough NEWS COVERAGE! May God save us all. All you’ve got to do is believe and show grace. We are all God’s children. I fear desperately for the younger generation kid’s 18-25. As they’ve grown up entirely with the internet and all that goes with it!
