The trouble with amateur podcasts is that they are inaccurate and deal more with the idiots making the program and have little to do with the actual events. Most of the content is copied or plagiarised and the music used to dramatize events is too overwhelming. Sadly the mainstream documentaries like NOVA, HORIZON and History are fewer and farther between. Lastly, acts of war are not considered disasters. The comments below say it all. I would advise you skip this one all together. Lastly, who makes a documentary without cameras?

I can appreciate the time the effort and the expense to make this documentary but it's rather slow and boring I actually fell asleep. I would have rather seen more underwater footage than you guys preparing to do the dive. I'm going to fast forward to even see if there is any diving at all today and start from there. Just saying. Cheers

Yeah, what he said. Usually a documentary filmmaker is the one operating the camera and doing the diving. Here, we're constantly being told what the divers are doing, and what's wrong with the cameras. Oh, and watching people eat, and going to places that are full of things that OTHER people collected and curated. Curious.

Why not try putting the camera in a big bowl of rice? It worked for all the people I knew who dropped their early smartphones in the toilet (I didn't have one of those for another ten years but I knew of people who had dropped even earlier electronics in some water unintentionally so I gave the suggestion.

Generalplan Ost is also a neglected chapter of history. Re. the casualties: on the Steuben, the vast majority were military, not civilians: 800 civilians vs. 4, 200 to 5, 200 military. Should it not have been sunk? That's an easy judgement to make at this distance.

The title is deceiving. The story of the biggest maritime disaster is actually a side story; it's mostly about a bunch of divers having fun. If that's your gig, fine, but I wanted a more in-depth story of the disaster.

You'd think the title would reflect what the documentary was about, not just some jumble of unrelated stories which, while interesting on their own, are not what I clicked on expecting to see.

Too much nonsense to watch. This series was so poorly made. It should have been condensed to one video. Way too much boring nonsense. Unlike any other underwater ship wreck video I've ever seen.

Ridiculous overproduction. The narration is fighting the completely unnecessary and overdramatic background music. Also why the smartarse special effects? Turned off after 4 minutes.

Finally! someone that recognises things for what they really are and doesn't forget that Titanic is in fact not the biggest maritime desaster in history nore the most tragic one either.

Like, if the other boats sunk, it seems like it's not a particularly good idea to go out to sea in that same area. If I find myself at sea, it will be because the plane has crashed.

Dont let a diver tell the story unless he knows what hes talking about, in this case I suggest he doesnt - this event is better covered elsewhere on You Tube.

Terrible documentary.
One guy even tries to hype it up more by saying Hundreds of Thousands of people were on the ship, before changing to up to 10k.

Ive said it a thousand times and I will keep saying it, the music completely spoilt this video, it a totally unnecessary noise that serves no purpose at all

The narrator must've been the cameraman, since we never saw him. Or perhaps he was just a hired studio spokesman. In any case, the u boat was never found.

There's too much chatting and not enough action. When divers went down, we got no idea what the interiors looked like, preservation etc. Disappointing.
