national geographic a real one for uploading whole episodes
probably cuz no one watched them in cable anymore that means no ads no money.
Drain the Oceans has to be one of the best series ever to come to NatGeo! So good
There's also a full length movie where it just focuses on the planet earth as a whole and is more geology and nature focused.
i couldnt stop watching,,my eyes were stuck
I'm shocked they were able to drain our oceans for these videos. I wonder how many fish were killed because of this tho
@@captainsledge7554 they didn't actually drain the water. What you see is pure computer graphics.
They scan the ocean using sonar and use that scan images to reconstruct what it must look like if the water was drained.
@@est9949 I'm aware lol it's called a joke. We do that on the internet sometimes.
This is the reason why construction is always delayed in Greece. You dig down 15-20 feet, something ancient will be found. It's a great find at ground zero, but it doesn't surprise me!
I'm 61 and a native New Yorker (upstate, not the city) and have always been a history buff. This is the first time I've heard of the Jersey, and how NY'rs were taken prisoner. You would think this would be taught in American History classes.
Not something to be proud of I suppose 😢
So true, savagery existed then as now
Ps, G'day Mate from the Grandson of Native New Yorkers Now An Aussie 👍
The US military probably decided to keep information about the HMS Jersey in their archives and not release it to civilians .
I have ancestors from New Amsterdam, then New York. But I could only find records for two, my 7th great grandparents who born in New York both about 1710. Both lived a long life. But other 7th great grandparents, I couldn't find. It makes sense now. Records likely missing due to Revolution.
Never knew this about New York. Thank you for making this video visible for all to learn about.
Same here. Totally awesome.
I find it amazing to think about the troops on that ship and one guy losing a button. I'm sure he didn't think anything of it, he was more concerned about living and living through the war.
This button help identify the ship. The small things in history that makes the biggest of differents
This was intense. I wish my dad was alive to see this. He would have been fascinated. Thank you.
my dad as well.
Cannot lavish enough accolades for this content. In the 1990s I spent time off the US east coast "mowing the grass" as it was referred to. Never saw these relics but your show brings back old memories. Thanks from the fantail.
Please keep this channel so we can learn ! As humans we have to remember we aren't the first people nor the last to walk this history road and. I mean I always wonder who when,.where and why this happened.. I always watch Albert on this channel and he approach things different and is super easy to understand. Watch him and history will come alive.
This has got to be my favorite episode of Drain the Oceans. Remarkable job.
Being born and raised in the city, I remember the neighborhood before the twin towers were built. They had to expand the land for that purpose. So landfill was done!
That whole area was full of electronic shops . My dad took me there to buy my first good stereo when I was a kid
@@J0EYbagaDONUTS That was DA BEST!!!
Very interesting. Watching it all the way from Malaysia.
This is truly interesting, I love drain the oceans episodes, by far the best on National Geographic
Niagara Falls was AMAZING!
Great episode. Thank you for uploading to CZcams!
The British didn't build the World's largest empire based on...... Kindness. America and American's got to see just a fraction of what Ireland and Western Scotland endured for generations
Might western scotland be located.....
Not to mention India
I can't believe that the United State is willing to let itself be invaded through mainly our Southern Border but also North. It looks like our WW1 and WW2 will have died in vein. How Sad. Will we see a World without Borders and a 1 World Governed by the U.N.?
Actually - all the people you mentioned (apart from the natives) were part of that process of extracting of value from other parts of the world, often through violence. This is the heritage of the US. The American colonists were actually well-treated by the motherland. Not so much the American Indians. And in fact part of the colonists' beef with the motherland was that they had decided to stop the expansion, something that Washington had already invested in, which may have been part of the reason for his treachery and breaking of his oaths of loyalty.
The Congo?
2024 and this is the 1st time I hear about this.
Do one on the synagogue tunnels!
Drain the ocean episodes are really amazing ..watching from the Philippines
I would be afraid to see what is at the bottom. It cant be good. 🥹
@missjoy_18
Hi Miss Joy from the Philippines! ✌️😁
Robert from the U.S.
NYC , learning its history and interesting places ..
What a great documentary
NYC is an ashtray.
I loved this episode amazingly put together 🙌🏼
Everyone hates on NYC as overrated, but it is a city of constant change 🏃♂️ That's just the nature of old Gotham city 🌆🗽
Absolutely FASCINATING AMAZING!!!national geographic documentaries r the best, everything even the music.
Does it do anyone else's head in when people speak in present simple tense when it should be past simple tense? I listen to this narration and I 'm like, oh my god... That aside, brilliant doc!
The East River isn’t a river.
I'm native to Brooklyn ny my family had farms in Brooklyn since 1900 on Flatbush and my whole family fought in every war and help build this city
New Amsterdam
this is incredible because it is gonna make me have to review so much of what i know about the rivers and such of nyc.
i am so confused thank you nat geo
Love this series. Would love to see one on the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Excellent documentary. Great content, research, and presentation. 🇦🇺 😊
Can't believe all the history hidden beneath NYC's streets! Definitely worth the watch!
Yeah the druggies don't have to hide now.
Great to see the 'family' sharing this ride...and Kyle did a terrific job narrating. Mushu is darling😁👍🐎
This is very interesting. I was not aware of this either. Thank you for making this documentary. 46:51
This topic is interesting but it would be so much better if the narrator's script wasnt SO melodramatic and over-wrought.
Agreed
Absolutely great documentary.. do you take requests.
Wow, this is really cool. I never knew they found a ship under that rubble.
Love this series!
exellent series!! So enjoying it.
"This is the moment when technology will triumph over nature" Is such a bold statement when you consider that we human beings are still in the mercy of mother nature.
I said the same thing! Like how are they so Proud in saying such a statement? Then use the phrase "Unsinkable" as a total scoff to our Creators, like that of the Olympia. And the fact that a British Steam engine was sunk and in typical American fashion, "Hey, let's have a battle for the best Ships and control of the Foreign Trade" and in the end it's always what other countries have done to US but never what we've done to them....
very interesting watching from Canada
Loved this episode.
🎶Here's to New York..
NEW YORK!!!🎶
🤗🤗
And a big thanx to
NAT-GEO for this
awesome documentary.
Same . I love the Empire State too .
Wow love every minute of it more please
Imagine the hundreds of thousands of shipwrecks, big and small, lie beneath the oceans, from prehistoric times.
The Americans in 1700s are still Europeans, hardly natives on the new continent.
Exactly
Some had been here since 1620.
@29:35 The MV Savarona. Savarona was built by Blohm & Voss in Hamburg, Germany at a cost of about $4 million. The boat was 407 feet long and cost about $10,000 per foot. For comparison, the average income in the US that year was about $1400.
I'm always very fascinated by how so many things just got buried beneath earth without anyone noticing, even in places with so much human activities like NY, how did that even happened?
I enjoyed your research
Fascinating
Awesome! Loved it!
Wonderful.
From Canada - NYC is on my bucket list to explore, might take a while though to explore
It's amazing that a ship named after a Pacific Coast City (USS San Diego) sunk on the east coast. Amazing show.
The "East River" is not a river, NatGeo, it's a salt water tidal estuary.
I recognize the orange lamp....I had one just like it plus the lampshade. I also had the dark paneling in my living room. She graduated a year before me, but in Norwich. I grew up in Rocky Hill, about an hour and a half from there. This brought me right back into the past.
Thank you
Thank you for full episode. 😊
Very nice!
Very interesting I enjoyed watching this
The guy that spotted the USS Oregon. Oh wow there it is. In the most not excited voice possible. I would have been OMG THERE IT IS!! Thats so amazing.
The last ship must of been horrific for the crewmen that was left inside as she turned upside down. There had to have been air pockets around. Some of those men had to have found those pockets. They lived long enough to pray for forgiveness before perishing.
Just the last ship?I bet the same kind of panic and horrificness was also present at the Oregon or any other tragedy.
*must have NOT of.
@@WeldingQueen the video says that everyone on the Oregon survived
Turned upside down! Try capsized
Must have***
I love how they go searching for Flood Rock in a chartered boat with the most cutting-edge laser technology, fully knowing the rock isn't there.
... and didn't rely on any eye witness accounts for the sinking of 2 other vessels, but they had to be "discovered"? I understand drama. But...
There was also a dangerous section of rock in B.C. Canada and they blasted it in the 1950s too. I think there is a documentary about it here on the Tube
Thank you natgeografic*

Thanks for this
New Amsterdam history
Some shots here are triggering my thalassophobia. But can't stop watching though.
They look like ants scrambling, trying to survive and fight for every scrap. No thanks. Give me the Redwoods of Northern California.
Excellent
thank you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
My high school was G.A.R., Grand Army of the Republic. Our football team was the Grenadiers. I asked, but none of the teachers there were willing to tell me what grenadier meant.
While playing the "Pirates of the Caribbean" online game, they had undead Grenadiers in a mine to eliminate. That's when I realized that the Grenadiers were named for grenade throwers, & of course, the idea would come from miners who used TNT every day..
True story. LOL!!
Most old congested cities have a rich history.
I wonder if there are any mines from either great wars still floating and armed out there somewhere?
Extremely interesting video
Wow what a nice documentary ❤ very nicely done ✅✅ happy for newyockers
We might see Jimmy Hoffa's body if we drain the waters of NYC.
long gone
This really educated me and was very interesting. Thank the past and present service members of the military for protecting our country 👏🏽.
Interesting that in the sinkings of both SS Oregon and USS San Diego there was little loss of life.
If draining the Oceans is that easy, what's the problem with draining the swamp?
Right
Great to watch this episode, I am an AMERICAN dreamer.
The graphics are great
THIS IS SUCH AMAZEMENT IT HAS GROWN IN LEAPS AND BOUNDS😮😮😮😮😮
Why shout?
It seems as though this plot of land is cursed. When i watched september 11 happen, i never imagined nearly four times as many people had died there before....
it makes you winder how many under see mins are still out there
Who else sees the little bug at 24:47? Lol. (Bottom of screen)
i would so love them do to vancouver bc!!!we have a similar city as new york (city & water all around)
Ohioan here, I've been to Vancouver it's beautiful!
Secret tunnel, secret tunnel 🎶
nice video!
That's the voice of Adoring Fan!
You guys missed a few tunnels!
I didn't expect this video to be so interesting 🤔
HMS Jersey was laid down in Plymouth under proposals of 1719. The Jersey was a 60 gun forth rate of the line. You clealy have the wrong vessel.
Very good but sad on the same time.. peace.
Drain the Secrets!
Always find it funny when people complain about free entertainment.....
I am so sad to say 9/11 never forgotten incident
It should never be forgotten. Always a reminder what terrorists could do to our way of life.
well 1/6 insurrection,was worse than 9/11,and the civil war combined....
The USS San Diego looks like my beignets when they become steam filled and turn themselves
Love my city
Yes, NYC's rivers were the arteries of commerce. But it is the geography of Manhattan Island which provided a natural defense, upon which fortifications were built and the geology of the hard bedrock that allows massive construction projects to be realized. NYC is a triple threat, as the old saying goes.
NatGeo: ~describes a ship from the Revolutionary War as 'ancient'~
Me: ~laughs in 'longtime Time Team fan'~
I tried to do a little research about the World Trade Center from official information and here are some facts.
1. Before the buildings were constructed, that area was a landfill.
2. The workers labored for 2 years to set the foundation below street level.
3. To find good bedrock for the foundation, workers dig down to 70 feet below the street level.
4. About one million cubic yards of rock was excavated which was later used to build a public park later.
Now here are my questions
a. This ship was found 20 feet below street level which is about 7 meters how couldn't it be discovered during the construction.
b. The amount of rock they excavated suggested to me, that the builders had gone down below the soil or silt surface on which the ship would lay down how could this be possible?
c. If the ship sank due to a battle with her officer onboard with the button, it might be a ferocious battle and many sailers on both sides might have fallen in the water. Why can we get at least one broken bone or evidence of human remains? Was it excavated during the construction? if so it appears to me the owners of that building took away more than a broken bone during construction.
I suspect the builders of the towers know a thing or two about the ship's location and what it carries and closed the area for two years to take or hide them away whatever it carries. Where was Jesus's crucifixion cross buried? It was under a landfill. It seems the ship crew were trying to hide something that they needed to protect under a pile of trash until the time came it would be unearthed.
I can't swallow the war story even with salt, I believe it was a deliberate attempt to hide this ship with all her puzzle for what ever reason.
The subway system left behind… looks like abandoned thru centuries..
i worked at the world trade center when this happened 1456 dockbuilders thats crazy
The 52 foot in 1775 was an Oxfordshire Regiment. Maybe they were reinforcements seconded and loaned to the 1st and 2nd of foot and got torn to pieces trying a amphibious landing. But the 52nd were not the Grenadiers or the Cold Streamers.
