SHIPWRECK FOUND: Doomed WW2 Warship 3 MILES UNDERWATER | History’s Greatest Mysteries: Solved

It was a 12 year old boy, who brought the truth just from hear­ing the sto­ry from jaws!! The book is called, left for dead!!

Any­one else both­ered by the incred­i­bly inac­cu­rate pho­tos and film footage they used?

Was it nor­mal back then for ships to dis­ap­pear for 4 days with­out some­body think­ing there was a problem? 😳

Lawrence is awe­some. I thought the point was that he actu­al­ly nar­rates everything.

That footage of the wreck you guys used was NOT the Indianapolis’s wreck! The wreck footage you were using was footage of the Titanic’s wreck.

wow all the bat­tle­ship footage is the Bis­mar­ck or tir­pitz at the 3:02 mark etc, still the most sad­dest sto­ry’s i have herd of lost at sea tragedies and god bless Cap­i­tal Mcvay and all those who lost their lives those 5 days at sea after she went down?
To think he still com­mand­ed his men and made sure that they could stay alive as much as his words could say ‚plus the dr as well who saved two men by swim­ming out to them when they were try­ing to swim away due to suf­fer­ing hal­lu­ci­na­tions due to drink­ing salt water?

Just going to clear this up right now. The Indi­anapo­lis was not a Flag ship when she foundered, and most cer­tain­ly not the flag­ship of the 5th fleet. The Flag­ship for Task Force 54 was the Ten­nesee and Old Dreadnaught.

‘There is noth­ign to wor­ry about’ — His­to­ry’s famous last words through­out time.

So this is moni­tized and they say sui­cide and many oth­er words that get oth­er useres demonitized…that seems total­ly fair

The Navy has no prob­lem look­ing for a scape­goat when the screwup was actu­al­ly high­er up the food chain. For­tu­nate­ly Nimitz knew what was going on and did not allow the court mar­tial to stand, but it did ruin Mc Vay’s career.

The true mon­sters of this sto­ry were not the sharks

I knew this man,he was a actor

Ari­zona is the largest loss of life in navy his­to­ry not indy…indy is largest loss of life due to shark attack

Unfor­tu­nate­ly it´s not the biggest loss of men in naval his­to­ry. Why do you guye always make it big­ger?
Think of the Bsmar­ck, the Hood, the Scharn­horst etc.

Great job using wreck footage of the Titan­ic. Give me a break his­to­ry channel.

Nicholas cage made a movie about this

There’s always a scapegoat.

Unit­ed States Gov­ern­ment CARES About their SOLDIERS espe­cial­ly using the Indi­anapo­lis Cap­tain as a scape­goat for their incompetence

For me that sto­ry have a lot of fishy things. The boat was sunk by a sub­ma­rine and after 4 days an air­plane on a rou­tine patrol found the sol­diers float­ing in emer­gency rafts. What hap­pened? Because if you lose com­mu­ni­ca­tion with a ves­sel you start search­ing for it the same day, but the sur­vivors were found by mir­a­cle by an air­plane doing an rou­tine patrol flight 🤔

It was a ter­ri­ble thing, on so many lev­els; but, like the Titan­ic; it’s been done to death. What about so many oth­er ships where­as their crews suf­fered sim­i­lar fates? ..like the USS Hous­ton in 1942.

A trag­ic sto­ry. I hope they are all at peace in the halls of hero’s. Espe­cial­ly the skip­per. You did all you could captain 💚🇬🇧
