if you want to look in to more deadly Ships look at Estoina how sink 1994 852 people died in the baltic sea under very bad weather. 1682 the warship Vasa sank after 1300 m in to her maiden vogage around 30 people died. In 1961 the Vasa was salvaged, today we can see her in the Vasa museum in Stockholm. Vasa was horrible built and that is way she did sink. A other horrible fire at sea was Scandinavian Star in 1990 159 people was killed -. the ship did not sink but it was a horrible fire and to this day we don't know how or that started the fire.

I had the opportunity to visit Pearl Harbor in 2010 because I love history. It was a surreal experience for me, because I only knew about what happened by reading about it in school and watching documentaries. I could only imagine how much those brave men and women went through that day as they fought to defend the base from the enemy.

Your history of the Bismarck is incorrect. The battleship never terrorized Atlantic shipping lanes for a year and a half. She was sunk only days after setting out on her first major operation without ever firing at a merchant ship. Perhaps you're thinking of earlier German ships, such as Graf Spee or Scharnhorst and Gneisenau?

The _USS Arizona_ will remain one of the most vital casualties of December 7th, and the _Lusitiania_ didn t deserve to go down as it did. Thanks to both incidents, we entered the world war in which each ship met its fate: the _Lusitiania_ in WWI, and the _USS Arizona_ in WWII.

I'm surprised the SS Eastland wasn't mentioned. That ship capsized in the Chicago River on 24th July 1915, killing 848 passengers and crew. It was a bright sunny day and the ship was still moored to the river bank when it rolled over and sank to the river bed.

Nobody knows which German vessel fired the fatal shot that detonated Hood's magazine. Eugen's guns had a higher muzzle velocity and combined with plunging fire, it could just as easily have been a shot from Eugen

Am I the only one who finds the idea of making a film on the Titanic (or any disastrous event, like a film about a serial killer) to be low-key wrong? Like you're profiting off tragedies, let's be honest lol

the gustloff was particularly interesting because the soviet knew they attacked an innocent ship and if i recall, they attempted to destroy all remains of the ships with underwater depth charges.
reply

I'm astonished 100, 000 people died in wooden boats going from China to Japan to launch an attack. That's pretty much an entire military BRANCH worth of people lost in one fell swoop.
reply

Thank you for not forgetting the Sultana. I was so sure it wouldn't be mentioned. The ship was carrying PoWs from the South to the North, following the end of the Civil War.
reply

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo! Amazing list of the dead shipwrecks. I've heard of the most of the incidents first time today. I learn a lot by watching WatchMojo each day.
reply

Surprised Cap Arcona, Goya, Stueban, and the plethora of Japanese ships lost in WW2 weren t brought up. But good on you for remembering Empress of Ireland and Lusitania!
reply

Pretty surprised the cruiseferry m/s Estonia wasnt on the list since she is often considered the worst modern maritime disaster with 852 people dead as a result.

I ll never forgive Rooster Teeth for canceling Ship Hits the Fan. One of the best nautical accidents related podcasts. Rooster Teeth really sucks now.
