- Stellar Banner, an iron ore carrier was scuttled off the coast of Sao Luis, Brazil after she ran aground taking a shortcut on her voyage to the far east. The hull was found unseaworthy, and not possible to tow the hull away for repair.

I'm both fascinated and horrified by just how fast ships that large can sink.
It is really scary to see how fast she went
Agreed
the 350.000 tons load of iron ore probably had something to do with it 😉
@iz_no_good the iron ore was really innocent in this case 🙂
This is why tanker ships like these have the quick release, gravity dropped life raft at the rear (you can see the slot for it). If a tanker is going down… you’re probably not going to have enough time to lower a conventional life boat.
In WWII submarine movies, men on the attacking sub can hear the steel of sinking ship groaning an snapping. This video made me realize those sound effects were pretty accurate.
It is indeed
I know a guy who'd been a sonarman on submarines & one of the few references that he could make to his old job was that he'd heard a ship sinking & it bothered him for years what he heard.
@@doughesson oh dear, doesn't sound nice at all
@@rjonsenIt's NOT! Retired Navy ASW crewman
@@VVtos174 Are you sure about that?Just because you can't hear noises on your bass boat fish finder,doesn't mean that sonar operators in a submarine can't.
incredible how quick it happens. and the speed it is diving down with! frightening.
It's really scary how quick she went down
With all that iron ore on her it's no wonder.
Oh yes! Especially when you consider how slowly it was going before. It takes a while for the ship to be swamped like that. Then suddenly, within 30 seconds, it's gone. Crazy.
Love how the radar unit was left on,spinning till the end.
They kept as much as they could running to burn as much fuel as possible
And the lights are burning on deck too 😳
@@DrDrehstrom they left as much as possible of the equipment on to burn as much fuel as possible
@@rjonsen They couldn't have lightered the fuel off the ship or gotten as much usable equipment off first?
@doughesson the salvage company did just what you said, really hard to get out everything
What a waste of Iron Ore. Imagine all thay energy spent getting it out of the ground with the hope of of turning it into quality steel
It's a shame indeed
They offloaded about 2/3 of it but still quite a bit went down with the ship.
@@MrBruinman86 indeed
More like: What a waste of ship. One human error and many thousands of hard labor hours got lost.
@@heyyo162Some things are unavoidable.
Respect with the horn at the end
It was well rigged by the salvage crew for a last salute
The sounds it makes while going down i allways asked myself from watching "das Boot" if you really heard these metal creaking sounds under water. But you can even hear it above water so it must be really loud on a hydrophone. Also the way it just speeds down into the ocean at around 1:25 is crazy imagine you are still on the ship and you think "yeah at this rate we got another 2 minutes before it sinks" but then suddenly it speeds up and almost looks like the ship just entered a hyperspace portal and disappears in seconds.
Working on ships myself, it's really scary to see how fast it goes down.
Whenever I play "Aces of the Deep" I love to get the notification: "I hear the death rattle of a sinking ship!" For 1990's PC game, the metal creaking sound effect is really good - just as you said, you can hear it while your U-Boat is underwater near a cargo ship wreck.
"Hold on tight, Rose! When I tell you, take a deep breath!"
I trust you!
"She's made of iron sir, I assure you she can!"
Rose: get off my big door!
There's no one on the ship, it's been scuttled duh.
@capndallas4918 everyone was accouted for luckily
Cool how the funnel ripped loose and popped up to the surface
It was quite supprising seeing it float to the surface again
this might sound weird but it was oddly emotional watching it go down. I felt like watching a loved one leave even though I have never heard of this ship before
It was really sad seeing her disappear into the ocean
Facts vato 😊❤😢😢😢
@@rjonsenincredible !! sunk in one minute 😮😮😮😮😮
@pimuce it's really scary how quickly she went
Same feelings, but didn't comment above not to be weird. But here I am..
Seeing the aftermath of the ship sinking makes you realize how terrifying it must’ve been to hang onto the Titanic til the end
For sure
" I swear my boat was parked right here!"
Haha 😂
Thats so cool that a float switch was added to the horn for the scuttle to say goodbye. Humans can be pretty cool sometimes :)
For sure 🙂
Ngl its sad to see all that iron ore go down, that's alot of useful material gone to waste
It is for sure
Maybe. Maybe it can be recovered later.
@wendigo53 think it's gone for good, not worth recovering
@@wendigo53nah its iron coming into contact with salty seawater its all fucked
@d4ntheman it is indeed
Imagine being some kind of fish deep in that water and this thing coming down at full speed
Respect given to a fine ship😢
Indeed
Keeping the oceans clean I see 👍👍👍 putrid is doing the same to his navy
By God, you tell em! You and your wooden car!
Why does that give me horrible anxiety? I’m physically recoiling at it.
It is really scary to watch for sure
Amazing power unleashed by water to shear that smoke stack right off... Imagine if you waited until the end on the stern to jump off - you might not make it with all that debris and churning water.
Wouldn't be anywhere near that in the water 😂
Oh you would be sucked in with that mass pulling all the water down with it, almost delta p style minus the crushing
“The fish love it, it’s good for their tummy” -King Mudbeard
crazy to think something that huge is down in the dark abyss now. Unsettling
It's someting to think about for sure
Radar still turning, lights on, generators still running. Didn't pump the fuel off?
They pumped out as much as they managed. They let everything run to burn as much fuel as possible
Also lifeboat is attached, probably a big oil spill happened after the sink
@danutailincai7383 we didn't see any oil spill after she went down
Would Love the video of underwater view of sinking into big blue.
Absolutely
Hello there i am engine cadet and hopefully a furure merchant marine mechanic.As far as i know the bulck carriers(the type of ship that transfers like iron,coal,dirt,sand...) are very dangerous ships.They go down like the other ones until one of their cargo holds starts filling with water(yes they are kind of waterproof the hatch covers but not fully) and as they fill with water the sinking event is sped up.Each one that fills with water it increases the speed of sinking, its like the snowball efect on the stock market strats from almost unnoticeable and eventually it takes a matter of seconds as shown to the video.
If i have made a mistake please correct me bcs i am new to the world of maritime
What I have heard as well
Yep you are absolutely right. I’m doing mechanical engineering so we’re in similar fields. This is precisely what happened with the Titanic and how most ships with hull compartments go down. Compartments flood into each other one by one until the weight of the water is too much and eventually drags the rest of the hull down with it. Pretty cool but terrifying to see physics in action like this
Okay that was cool and fast.
She went really fast indeed
The way the back goes in at the end is out of a movie.
It certainly does
I guess the sinking ship sound effects in movies were pretty accurate.
They sure are
And the funnel is broken by the sinking, in a similar way to the ones in Titanic. In fact in this one it seems the main force breaking the funnel is the speed at which is rushed into the water but the effect is the same.
This looks like our Cunard Liner LUSITANIA since May 7th 1915 on the southern coast of Ireland🇮🇪on the Celtic Sea!
You can see the fwd part of the ship start to sink very quick with that tonnage of water coming in
Indeed
To give context, this ship (when fully loaded) is 3x the size of a Nimitz Carrier and 6x the size of the Titanic.
It's really massive indeed
Weight, not size. There’s a diff, I.e. dimensions matter!
@@edwarddebone402 indeed
@@adonislimes6156 using the term size, doesn’t give the context he mentioned. Could be interpreted as length, width, anything.
@@edwarddebone402 Weight (or rather mass) is a measure of size.
We as humans just have a phycological tendency towards the concept of visual size bias, better known as physical dimensions.
Another amazing captain.
Not a wise decision taking that shortcut
I detect just a teeeeny bit of sarcasm wipsplash 😂😂
Wow that is amazing how quick that sunk.
It's really amazing and scary at the same time
An acquaintance who worked in a shipyard told me about how to tell if a ship can be salvaged from imminent sinking. He told me that it was very important to see which way the ship was sinking, since that would tell if the water was flooding into the passageways and compartments uncontrollably, or if it was meeting "resistance" inside the hull.
Sounds sensible
Sad to see a ship go down
It is sad indeed
With a load of iron ore 350,000 tons more than the Stellar Banner weighed empty
It's like filling a bathtub with iron ore
Did the Stellar Banner blow her horn right before she went down? or was it the tug towards her bow? i'm referring to the first, duller horn, not the second one that is clearly from the vessel that was filming her sinking.
The Stellar Banners horn was rigged with a float switch, triggering it as a last farewell
Madness, how quick it's done.
It certainly is
recently got into marine transport
this is heartbreaking
It sure is
The seas is always right
The seas is certainly demanding
This company also lost the Stellar Daisy a few years back.
That's sad to hear, hope the crew got rescued
There more history on the bottom of the ocean, than all the museums in the world...
There is indeed
Nice submarine! Damn must be scary on a sinking ship.
It must be really scary for sure
Has anyone ever recorded a ship sinking from an underwater view? Maybe 100 feet down?
That's a really good question, haven't seen footage of it myself
Scary how deep the ocean is and how terrifying it would be if you were on a ship that is sinking.
It certainly is
It would have been cool to have some underwater video as it went down
It might be helpful to consult the wiki entry for this exact ships fate. Fortunately, there was no loss in crew! And the loss in ore (freight) and steel of the ship itself total value did not even cover the eventual cost of a professional salvage. In the clip, there are two salvage tugs to see, and usually, they dont move to lost ships, only for the thrill, of seeing them going to the ground…
I assume they never salvaged any electrical components since i can see the radar spinning?
They didn't salvage much, they kept as much as they could running to burn as much possible of the fuel they could not pump out
В момент затопления дг были в работе!
They were indeed
Terrifying how fast it suddenly went down
It sure is
I would love to have seen an underwater camera of this.
Going down with the lights on. That's like dying with your eyes open.
That's one way of saying it
Remains me , Estonia 1994....
C'est incroyable de voir un navire de cette taille (60 mètres de plus que le Titanic) sombrer à cette vitesse!
It is indeed
Imagine if it was the Titanic 😢
My schoolfriends brother, who lifed across the road from me, was lost on the mv Derbyshire in a typhoon in the south China Sea. She went down like this.
The Derbyshire sinking was really fast too. It caught everyone out.
That's sad to hear
It's really scary seeing big ships going down this quickly
MV Derbyshire went down with explosive speed, like this, in a typhoon in 1980.
Oh dear 😔
@@rjonsen yea.. Visibility was low, they couldn’t see much of anything. Then they heard the sickening sounds of the cargo holds imploding, one after the other. Before they realized what was happening, the entire superstructure was sucked into the ocean, and all 42 souls (including the wives of the crew) were gone in an instant. Not a second to spare .
@scowley86 that sad to hear
According to the company '“Prior to scuttling, floating objects, such as mooring line and pollutants, also a minimal quantity of gas oil which had remained onboard have been removed. Part of the iron ore, navigation equipment and basic machinery remained on the vessel, which are deemed to pose no risk to marine life,”
Correct

@@bad74maverick1 Ich nicht aber du😂
Imagine all the supplies on that ship
Most of the items were cleaned out
damn once the sea got a hold on her, it never let go
Did the captain stayed in the bridge like Titanic? lol
No wooden doors to not share on this one Rose😂😂
How could it sink if it ran aground? Or was it moved away and then sunk? Why would that make sense?
The salvage company partly offloaded her to get her afloat, then she was towed to deep water for scuttling
Bloody hell! Good job the tug boat wasn't attached.
The tug boat was attached by a weak link, which is designed to break under a certain load.
Did they unload it first?
They unloaded between a 3rd and half the cargo to re-float her, before towing her away to deeper waters for scuttling
At the bottom of the ocean the depths of the abyss they are bound by iron and blood
Indeed
The flagship of the navy, the terror of the seas
His guns have gone silent at last!
Завораживает.
Well that was quicker than I thought.
She went down really quickly
twss
well idk how fast titanic sunk in its last stages but this here was surprisingly fast.
It sank fast indeed
Iron is in short supply in the ocean and where ships are sunk in shallow areas it can lead to a flourish of sea life.
It certainly can
Expensive loss. It’s a shame she couldn’t have been scrapped 😢 Insurance will help recover the loss.
It's a shame indeed!
Honestly think she is better at the bottom of the ocean than in a scrapyard.
With that cargo you could have just melted down the entire thing.

It certainly did
I find it terribly poignant to see the ship sink with the sound of the fog horn and the other ship's response to say goodbye! 😢
It is indeed
just genuinely curious here, but what is the brown stuff coming out when the ship sinks. is it dirt and or rust?
It is dust being ejected as air whooshes out and water rushes in. The brown stuff is iron ore. The force of air being pushed out carries some particles or iron ore with it.
It's the iron ore left in the cargo holds shooting up
The sea gods wanted her badly look at the speed it went down :O
It's really scary seeing her going down that quickly
RIP to all those who perished in the sinking!😢😢😢😢
Fortunately no one perished, everyone got rescued
@@rjonsen even the captain???
@@dima.jiharev even the captain
@@rjonsen but the captain goes down with the ship!..
@@dima.jiharev says who?
Would be crazy if Slash suddenly comes out from the water like from 'estranged' and plays a solo 🎸
That would be crazy indeed! 😂
I wonder if they removed the iron ore before the ship got scuttled?
They removed a lot of the iron ore before refloating and scuttling her
Can just imagine how terrified all those passengers onboard the Titanic must have been now.
scuttled!? The ship was still on power?! I think he is sinking not scuttled?
They kept as much as possible running to burn fuel
And the band played on.
How could it sink if it ran aground ?
The ship was floated, but was too heavily damaged to justify the economics of rebuild her. She was towed to deep waters and scuttled
На какой глубине затопили?
It was over 1000m depth
Now i believe that my family said the titanic actually sank quickly when it cuts in half because they we're told by my great great grandmother when she saw very little when the titanic split in half and was sinking faster
For sure
They should film below water
That would be cool to see
1:18 The Stellar Banner returns to a final even keel.
It’s sad for the ship it’s worked so long for us only to get betrayed by us running it aground and making it sink.
It is sad indeed
@@rjonsen
👍😔
I saw a vlcc sink in around 1977, the ship was Sun Seahorse, scuttled on 18deg west, turrned out to be a big fraud, ship was originally called Salem, I was a junior engineer on British Trident, we picked up the crew and took them into Dakar.
wish we could see it how it looks from underwater.
That would be cool
@@rjonsen please mount a camera underwater so that we can see the underwater decent.
@ubuntuber1619 any idea how to retrieve the underwater camera from the sinking ship?
So instead of recycling the materials from the ship to build something else with it, someone decided to just sink it.
Pretty much what happened
It’s unrepeatable in the middle of the ocean. What are they supposed to do?
It wasn’t going to make it anywhere for repairs.
Anyways, ships that sink/get scuttled typically promote coral reef development, so it’s really not that bad for the environment.
Sunk so fast at the end because the cargo holds are full of both water and all that iron
Indeed
Imagine how violent and loud it would of been when titanic sank
It certainly must have been
No wonder the sea level is going up!😂
A small contributing factor 😂
Don’t you understand that the entire ship is filled with water after it’s sunk?
Actually sea level is going down when a ship sinks. In order to stay afloat, ship keel must displace a quantity of sea water higher than the mass of the ship. When ship sits on the bottom of the sea, she no longer needs to displace as much water, so sea level gets (infinitesimally) lower.
But all of the ship that is normally above the waterline is now displacing water... 🤔
@@boataxe4605 sure, but there is a certain amount of bulk from the steel or whatever that makes up the ship. Really insignificant when compared to the vastness of the seas
That was fast!
It sure was
I hope they salvaged all that iron ore.
The iron ore is at the bottom of the ocean
1:31 Good thing you included that note, otherwise the comment section would be overflowing with Einsteins worrying about the poor guy who was still aboard.
Thank you 🙂
How many meters it laid now?
It's sitting at 2700m depth
Forgive me for being stupid but if it ran aground how can it sink ?
She was refloated, towed to deep water and scuttled
El hundimiento se produce por la entrada de agua el peso del barco y la fuerza gravitacional de la tierra en el suelo oceanico
Indeed
Интересно посмотреть..
It was something different for sure
Why was the ship even damaged? It was basically new (for a ship)
It certainly was new. They ran a ground, lowered the anchor at speed, tearing up the ships side damaging several ballast tanks.
