1. Would you rather lose your life savings on the MOL Comfort or take your chances on the MSC Flaminia?

2. this is gonna help me a lot for my holidays homework. thanks!

3. Follow up: a list of consumables lost‼️

4. Idk how I got to this vid, but it was very interesting 🤔

5. we all know human traffickers use ships and people are in containers like these 😢😢😮.

6. Oh the irony of the name 'ONE'

7. Our beautiful ocean is so full of shit from people.. people suck

8. These are all insurance scams

9. You only have to have one piece of dodgy welding on a ship like this and a bit of bad weather and they will crack like an egg shell. That is why at the ship yards that produce the giant craft they usually only hire the BEST welders and engineers to do the work. It is a great shame that these accidents happen but to be honest this sort of haulage has gone on for thousands of years . Yes the loads today are massive but we humans seem to need the products on board these vessels more and more and with technology and science the loads can have some terrible chemicals on board but we do need them. Shipping today is very cost effective and the best way to get millions of tons of everything to places everywhere and every time we have an accident the whole process gets safer and more controlled.

10. You forgot the Edmund Fitzgerald. All hands died.

11. You forgot about the ship that blocked The Suez Canal in 2021 The ever given!

12. Thank you for starting the video immediately! And not yelling your hellos and introducing your family, friends and their pets. Good video!

13. Stop with the flashing white letters. You can PLACE letters on a screen. For fear of a migraine, can't watch.

14. #3…man that's fucked up..who took the rap.

15. Definitely not wanting to be disrespectful,,,,, The cargo looks like Lego's.

16. And yet we, that’s the royal/proverbial we, insist on building bigger and bigger cargo ships, and, in my opinion, it is down to our ever greater demand for consumer goods, perhaps if we were NOT so shallow in wanting the newest, shiniest and cheapest of things we DO NOT actually need then maybe, just maybe, we could cut maritime pollution down, use less of the earths natural resources and in turn cut down the speed that the planet is racing towards climateaggedon, let’s face it, consumer demand = more cargo ships 🚢 = bigger ships = pollution = wasted resources (on new vessels and consumer goods) = an ELE (Extinction Level Event), and NO I am NOT an eco warrior, but I am a realist, and that reality is that we ARE destroying our HOME……..EARTH!!!!!
    Another excellent episode, thanks for sharing. 🤯🤬😡😠😤😥………….😀👍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦

17. How do those containers stay stuck together even at an extreme angle?

18. amazing video mate. thanx a lot)

19. 👍🙏❤️

20. What a great video. No idea why there are even any thumbs downs.

21. how can a vehicle surrounded by water catch fire and burn for several days? (a month wtf !?)

22. Come on, now… No video, just images…?

23. I am honestly Blown Away that the South Korean cargo ship & ferry, the Sewol, was NOWHERE on this list. 300 people drowned, 250 of them were high school students who drowned when the ship capsized during a school trip to a resort island. The captain and crew told the students to stay put while they rescued themselves, and didn't bother to mention that there were students onboard the sinking ship to any of the dozens of coast guard and other rescue ships arriving specifically to rescue people off the ship.

24. This was fascinating! I hadn't heard of these cargo ships FAILS before. Learned something new which is always fun.

25. Since I ain't got no life savings I'd take the Flaminia. At least it would be a quick trip

26. what kinds of things were in those cargo boxes?
