People were so nicotine dependent back in the 1940s they put tobacco on an emergency life boat lol
As a smoker that seems one of the worst parts of being stranded. not having any tobacco on me and facing withdrawal on top of all the other mental difficulties lol
LOL đ you seem đŻ % TRUE
Believe it or not, many people thought that smoking was actually good for you back then. In fact, there were even doctors during that era .who endorsed cigarettes.
@@lonewolfatari475 I don't think that's true. King George got lung cancer and everyone knew it was because he was smoking cigarettes like a chimney.
Being a smoker, you really want one in stressful situations. So if I was packing that kit. Its definitely something I would want in there.
Remember if youâre ever stranded on a boat crossing hundreds of miles of ocean which I know is highly unlikely for most of us if you see birds that in itself is a sign of land. Youâre not gonna see any out in the middle of a large ocean.
Unless there are people trolling by taking a bunch out into the middle of the ocean and setting them loose. Plot twist!
@@colorbugoriginals4457 that plot is so American too⊠Conspiracies everywhere, smiles.
@@colorbugoriginals4457 Wouldn't survive for too long

Yes you can the birds will follow ships and they have migratory routes your, you could totally see a bird and you often hear about it
12:13 The tree trunk wasn't his first sight of land, the birds were.
thats what i thought too
birds can fly in the middle of sea ( seagles )
Birds can be anywhere on the ocean
@@fal4784 they can but they don't. Not in the deep or middle of the ocean. They can't drink saltwater. They may occasionally migrate through but never go down to low altitudes or hang around like in the video
@@theywalkinguptoyouand4060 no
The end of the story really put a smile on my face!
Come over baby
Me too..
@@secredeath wht
Same here
Because the company is so cool and I am so sorry you were made to be with 7PM and I am not telling you 33inches I
Now that is a true story of survival. I hope this guy went on to live a full life.
Still alive now
@@ajax4801 No he died already.
Chinese sailor: 113 days at sea and survives
Me: 1 hour without food or water - dead
ONGđ
Me too.. he is truly amazing.
Desperation can do that to you
Underrated comment
Ha. Iâm Chinese just saying
Unrestricted submarine warfare was bad enough, but to abandon and leave survivors in the middle of the ocean is pure evil.
Hardly the worst things the Germans did in WW2
It wasnât evil in this case. If you look at background information youâll see there were cases of decoys pretending to be in need of rescue and then ambushing the submarine crew or even calling in planes to attack the sub while it was on the surface.
Remember this was during WW2.
It wasnât evil. It was just trying to survive.
I mean, submarines where already very cramped, and food and supplies where very limited for submarines while at sea. And the submarine crew was busy manning the submarine. So they didin't have the space, supplies or crew availability to take prisoners. Remember this is war, and in war providing for your enemy is of very low priority
Blame the USAAF for that.
@@F-4E-58-MC So is USA's fault and not Germany, you know, the country that started that madness in the first place!
113 days alone, that'd drive most people insane...
The average person would have died
I've been single for over 10 years and survived.
@@9InchHandle that's different than being stranded at Sea.
I would have died by giving up after about a month
Rookie numbers
These types of incredible stories are always inspiring. Great storytelling, infographics show. đđœđ
Up until the last minute of this country music 432hz was a legend
Imagine the feeling of catching that first fish!!
You would let out a huge sigh of relief
and eating it raw first time

Thank you!
I got actual goosebumps from this. The willpower of that guy...

@@fluffydonkey2186 what
Man has a mind of steel. I would have lost it during that storm, the fear and constant dread of dying wouldâve shattered my sanity.
This was an emotional rollercoaster.
True lol
no it wasnât
@@fluffydonkey2186 Yes it was
113 days of constant misery.
Far more than what I can handle
The lost at sea episodes are my favorite
I wish they would have figured out what ship just left him there. They should be charged
I thought it was enemy submarines that left him
@@Righteous1ist yea it was but a ship sailed by him too.
I think it was because of a rule that you couldnât pick up any maritime survivors during the war due to the chance they would be a spy. Not sure if itâs true but I kind of remember reading something like that in a book.
@@josephstalin364 Your nym seems to be unduly paranoid about spies...
Thatâs not how that works. Many ships that were in a convoy couldnât stop to pick up survivors from other ships in the convoy because they would be sitting ducks hence why there were ârescue convoy shipsâ
I had the wind knocked out of me once and it was far more frightening than it's usually depicted in media
Ha I mean itâs not an uncommon thing. I wouldnât say itâs all that frightening. I guess it would be if you didnât know what it was exactly, but if you know what it is, itâs easy to know thatâs whatâs going on and at that point you know it will pass fairly soon.
I really hope that the airplane and boats that passed truly didnât see him. But what a remarkable story. Man oh man. Strong Will!
Most of these stories end by the person being rescued when they were close to death. THIS Hero brought himself back from the brink of death ans still made it. Unbelievable story......
I love these animations! Keep up the great work! :D
What a great episode, keep it up. Definitely looking forward to more of these
I love you guys so much thank you for making this year
Great and interesting video!! Much love, info graphicsâ€ïž
Salute to his will power!
They need to make a movie about this mans story
What an absolute legend
Incredible story and incredible animations great job
My man's wasted 4 flares out of 5 in a matter of seconds đ§
This is why I donât do boats in the ocean. Even if you donât go far out still dangerous, a rip tide can pull you to unrecognized waters quick. Or a shark could get you. Awesome video this is one of my worse fears
Iâm not a religious man, well anymore, but there was definitely something watching over him. Making sure he survived. Great story đđœ .
Jesus loves u
@@nicolasplayz7754 god donât love black people, but thanks I guess.
Religious or not, there IS some force of some kind watching over all of us. Whether one believes it to be God, gods, or some sort of âhigher powerâ of any kind, there is someone or something that brings order and fate to being and watches over everyone. You donât have to be religious to believe and see that miracles, or whatever you want to call them, such as this story are beyond are human will or comprehension. Stories like this are only possible with the guidance and protection of a higher power.
@@marcellus8049 god is racist?
@@marcellus8049 you saying god is racist?
Bro. I could understand why you are not religious but racist? Wow.
I love your content. You always make my day better
I try to imagine how horrible this would be ,but if anyone has never experienced this type of nightmare we will never fully know how bad it really is.
Wow. Here I am bored out of my mind just 30 minutes after a blackout.
Wow very inspirational đđŸ
There's a story similar to this where a guy got stuck on a little boat after a ship got destroyed, he got stuck with a tiger and a hyena
Just incredible how ppl can do this. Iâm not sure I could ever be so resilient or smart in such a situation.
Wow! this was amazing. Thank God he made it.
This man is amazing
Less gooo 10mil ur such a great channel keep up the good work
Loved this video
The infographics show should really be my history teacher
I love that ending. I hope it helped make life better after
*The Infographics Show: How I Survived 113 Days Stranded in the Middle of the Ocean! Me: WOW! The Narrator should be nicknamed "The Superman Of CZcams"!*
They are telling a story of another person, just in there perspective
@@lanadelreeyy I know. They do a good job of it. And this comment was made to be funny. I hope it is.
@@patriciajacobs8224 it is donât worry, sometimes I canât tell, between seriousness and when someoneâs joking
Stop making these brain-dead jokes! Look at every single comment section, this generation of sheeps really milk this joke format
This was fascinating
This should be a movie
Life of pi is a Good movie kind of similiar story
true
I really enjoyed this channel. Always informing & educating us with history, science, technology & many more.
Congrats on 10,000,000

What happened to the airplane that dropped the buoy and wiggled his tail? I thought he was gonna get rescued then!!
either they pulled the rescue mission back due to the storm and give up, or theyre racist and decided he isnt white enough to be rescued.
this is, what, before ww2 so it's possible. the poor sailors in the life boat was also missing, they must have purposely made the boat they ride on sank, and take the survivors somewhere by diguising to help them...
@@jeanneann3545 That did make me wonder if they called the raft over so that they could drag them under when they left.
So messed up.
@@jeanneann3545 it was actually during WW2. Who do you think attacked the boat in the first place ... ding ding! The theories are they thought he was Japanese who were working with the Germans at the time or that they thought he was bait planted by the Germans for ambush.
My thoughts were that they dropped it to be able to spot him later but the storm came in and they weren't able to find it nor him
@@baxxtab2429 that explains the one that drops the buoy but not the other that saw him in daylight and literally flew over him to get a closer look
Congratulations on 10 million
I love these video's so much
Congratulations on the 10 mill

Wow what a great animation what program do you use?
I really liked your survive the killer and big foot thing, could you guys make another one of those?
And also I have heard of this thing called Ocean acidification and would love to know what that is, since you guys have been doing things relating to phycology and history I thought you guys would be the best one to ask about this question. Could you guys make a video so that I can understand what that is? Thank you
Holly Jolly Rancher this was a great Vid
Very helpful planes thank you military
I stay watching this very interesting đ„°đđŻđ„đ„đ„
Survivor! Wow. And to think he had no formal training. Smart guy.
Underrated story

Wow. What incredible grit.
Amazing. A central american Salvador Alvarenga spent 438 days in Pacific Ocean. Fishing in Mexico, his little boat reached Marshall Islands!!! You can have more information in the web!

This is some survival story!
During WW2 my father worked on British merchant marine convoys supplying war materials to England. During 2 separate trips the ships were torpedoed by German submarines. He and some of his other comrades were picked up from their life raft by another ship. After escaping death twice this way, father decided to jump ship in New York. However by coercion he was inducted into the US Army April, 1943 or get sent back to Hong Kong. Father served in Al Levy's unit the 288th (Chinese regiment) Field Artillery Observation Battalion under General Patton. Could you do a story on the 288th Field Artillery Observation Battalion under General Patton? Thank you!
âŒïžIâM IMPRESSEDâŒïž
My favorite type of video
This is REALLY how to make lifeboats, not make a lifeboat and say âthat will keep them aliveâ
Sweet, I read a book on his story. Really sad how he was left out in the ocean by that friendly ship because he was Chinese. Book is called, âLone Survivorâ
"Sole Survivor," actually. I remember reading it 30 years ago, when I was in middle school.
This guy was a boss
Dis man need a world record for surviving 100 days on sea man!
đ¶Did they make a movie about this guy? His story is incredible!
Wow, I didn't know about this story. I love this channel and want to learn know about real past stories.
best video ever
Thats a really well stocked raft
Disgusting the depths men can go .. the U-Boat crewâŠ. One person acts that way and others join in and then itâs no humanity left.
It was during WW2, the Germans weren't exactly known for their humanity back then.
@@lkez2 hmm yeah U-boats⊠Iâm aware. Lol. Been in one actually. Those U-Boat soldiers were as vicious as soldiers from any war⊠If you were talking the Waffen SS, yeah theyâre a level worse and more complicit even by a lot imo. Fact is, itâs seen in all wars on all sides throughout time and the depths people will sink to, especially in peer groups that facilitate and reinforce the lack of social mores. It shows that those mores broken down and away from a normal society shows what so many are capable of.
@@peter-radiantpipes2800 it takes someone with âuniqueâ characteristics to tolerate submarine life or even enjoy it I would imagine. I would think those same traits would indicate a bit of a mean streak as well.
Shame on the cops who even didn't help a dying person calling for help out of looks, language or ethnicity
This guy is a legend
So you see the moral is never give up at any situation
Keep trying đ€
Or give up and not suffer for so long
Yk one of the only things that shouldn't make sense that actually make sense is being surrounded by water but still feeling thirsty
nice
Dude this is crazy!
I don't even know that is possible
Respect tho!
Losing his clothes and life coat was completely irresponsible
But did he die?
This makes me want to play Stranded Deep
KING
đ
HE DID THAT.
That story is makes me happy that is impossible
Im familiar with a whirlpool, but a worldpool is new to me!
ââŠtangled his loose Chinese trousersâ đ
Now i'll never ever get near of a boat
Heâs lucky how stocked the raft was and he found it
Someone say summer vacation ⊠with all them resources đđ
It is awesome to watch infographics show I like what would happen if you didn't brush you're teeth for 1 week
10 mil !!!!! đ€©
Tbh i would have given up in the first days
