As cowardly as it was for Martin the Magician to just immediately run away, it's good that (even while presumably panicking and out of his mind with fear) he remembered to unlatch the box so that the woman inside wouldn't be trapped.
*Just remember that the true victim of this tragedy was actually Domnica Cemortan who died twice. Once on the witness stand and then a second death afterwards with the crush on her psychological brain*
@Libbathegreat I think this is more of language barrier and not being able to convey what she wanted to say in English. Maybe she just straight up thought that but idk
On the Filipino guy 'claiming' the captain was eating as the ship sank. My partner is a bilingual Filipino and he suspects there might be some intentional miscommunication going on with the Filipino crew member and the interviewer. The guy in the interview was likely just referring to the event earlier in the day, where Schettino and Cemortan had dinner together before returning to the bridge. Also, my partner notes that this particular news network is rather infamous for taking interviews and showing them out of context. Not super important, but we felt it was interesting to bring up. If anything, it shows that the point about the media being incredibly unreliable in this case still stands.
I remember when the story was still new, and the narrative that I saw and still thought was the truth until watching IH’s documentary (as I never bother looking into this disaster again many years later after it happened), was that the ship crashed because the captain was busy in his suite with that lover of his, stuffin’ her muffin.
The accident itself isn't solely the captain's fault, but the bungled response to the accident is solely his fault. Crisis management is one of the most important aspects of leadership.
@Mushyroom To be more fair, if you know you’re fucked from bungling your job this bad, then your only hope for redemption is how you handle the crisis. It’s even more of a reason to stand up straight and go hard on your duties in the now current situation you may have caused.
I've listened to this video a dozen times just for the sake of his voice and the way it's all presented. Good way to kill time at work when I'm just plugging away at the books. Set some Internet Historian and watch the hours fly by :)
The more I learn about de Falco, the more I'd vote for the guy. Between "Get the fuck back on board" and being willing to go against the organization he worked for when they were wrong in that fire, the dude seems like his whole focus is on the people of Italy. Good dude.
@qaiser 1960’s-90’s at least observably had *some* politicians who still worked for the people as opposed to self-enrichment. It’s always been this way, but it’s far more ubiquitous now than it was in the past.
@charlie, captain of ravioli That's not what he actually said there, he said "Le faccio passare l'anima dei guai", which is very hard to translate accurately. If I had to try, it would probably go something like "I'll have you go through the soul of (all) troubles". In other words, De Falco wasn't throwing around puns.
Isn’t it sad that there’s no hope and no place for an altruistic personality in modern politics? They get demolished by the unhinged dirty politicians who want to take them down. There’s no hope for ever un-breaking that situation. 😔
How is it that the more I learn about De Falco, the more I respect and admire this man? At this point I nothing will shake my belief that his name and rank is *actually* Captain deFalcon.
Man, what a standup guy Internet Historian is. Even after all of the absolute incompetence and shitty behavior of the guilty parties, he still tries to make sure people don't participate in targeted harassment against them: a man of quality!
@Clyde MacTavish Which is becoming less basic unfortunately. It's sad we gotta point out this kinda stuff because of how many people wouldn't do that, either from the "can't control my audience lol" mentality or just hoping the person in question does get harassed.
Holy shit dude, I thought you did this stuff in After Effects! It's no wonder the shit won't render! I've found over the last 2 years that AE usually saves me from opening up Photoshop to do cutouts or similar stuff because it's selections tools are actually good.
@Arnold Harding Lol! You are clearly talking to yourself. 😂 You are the person who randomly picked on someone for posting an interesting comment “in the wrong place.” Nice try guy.
@Anti - Ethnic Cleansing Look I don't know who hurt you but I know it wasn't me. Don't come at me with all that crying after you hit me with the "Oh boo hoo" BS Pick a lane.
@Arnold Harding Oh boo hoo. A lot of people do that to make sure that their comment can be seen. Not only because of YT cen: sorship issues, but because there are many thousands of comments here (so people will pick a thread near the top, and stick their remark in there). It also could have very well been an accident. “Rilluma” didn’t tag anyone in his/her initial comment, and very well might have thought he/she was posting the remark in the main comment section, instead of in this thread (or rilluma thought that he/she had a different thread open and was posting under that). Cry more. I’m thankful to have come across it, because I’m going to go educate myself now about MS Estonia!
I wonder how many people got out alive because the engineers' quick thinking and massive stones in keeping the generators running WHILE THE SHIP WAS SINKING.
@Attigator Especially since the water pumps required three generators to work. A solution could've been to just put three generators here, and the other three there. Then again I have no ship or nautical design/engineering experience so what do I know
@2percentright the issue with that is stability. Putting heavy weight towards the bottom of the boat and below the waterline supports buoyancy and stabilizes the ship from capsizing. But yeah, keep the separated would help
This really makes me question the idea of placing all the major electrical systems right next to each other. The chance a strike is going to rip open multiple holds is pretty much guaranteed. Distribute them across the ship. Or hell, at least above the water line
One thing I can’t seem to figure out - hotel director Manrico Giampedroni did not abandon the ship. In fact, he was the very last person rescued. He broke his leg helping others escape and kept himself alive by climbing onto a table and banging a pot against the wall to be heard. He was praised as a hero in many news articles. Why was he given the second most severe sentence of any of the five officers charged? I can’t find any information about his plea deal. Thanks!
On Historians video, it was said Giampadroni was one of the 2 officers who had the chance to opt for community service, unlike 3 other officers who got standard jail sentences. They were shorter than what they were supposed to be anyway, so I guess it could have gone worse for him.
Here's what I can summarize base on a quick google of his position and what we saw in the video. His position as the hotel director meant it was his responsibility to ensure that the passengers were evacuated in this scenario and since he was on the bridge at the time of the crash, that meant he was part of the initial cover-up towards the passengers that delayed the evacuation and caused some people to become trapped. He was also blamed for the chaotic nature of the evacuation.
knowing spanish, specially argentine spanish I can understand quite a bit of what they are saying and damn that phone call, the subtitles and hearing how mad he is doesn't make justice (although what was done is the best one can do), I've never heard such dress down directed to a an adult the age of schettino, I've seen people arguing like that, I've argued like that, but this was more akin to a parental figure scorning their little kid for something they did and the child is completely terrified
@froggymusicman do you really not? Hmm interesting, i mean, I've had many moments of barely understanding a single word and sometimes less than that of a dialogue in italian, someone could say "i forgot my briefcase" (just to say something) and I'd be like "he forgot... something" or if i were to put an audiobook in Italian I wouldn't be able to say that I have an understanding of what the book is about but some sentences and the weight of some words in those sentences, in this particular case, insults and insult adjacent words and phrases (because you know, the same word doesn't necessarily carry the same weight in every language) i do catch There are some videos from ecolinguist i think that you can watch on yt about how much latin, italian, Portuguese and spanish speakers can understand eachother although if i remember correctly those are loose words? It's been a hot minute since I've seen them I guess I'm just lucky enough that from this specific "conversation" I'm able to understand like 35% or 40% of what it's being said and then filling the rest in
I just realized that in the ad. The dog can talk but no one can hear him speak. Everyone would have freaked out. Luckily Raycon ear buds are such great quality and price, that the crisis was averted. You did it again Raycon Man.
@Ira van den Heuvel while he was undoubtedly used as a scapegoat, he deserved an even higher sentence regardless. for even if incompetence shouldn't be punished too harshly, cowardice should, especially given what said incompetence and cowardice resulted in (dozens dead XD)
Personally, I think Schettino received a harsher punishment than was appropriate. Yeah, he was operating his vessel in a somewhat reckless manner and he did the wrong thing at almost every point following the collision, but he was not malicious. Just foolish and incompetent. He should never have been allowed to command in the first place. And while folks call him a coward for abandoning ship and shirking his responsibility to his crew and passengers, I personally think that him walking away like he did was probably the best thing for everyone. He was like a little kid running around in the middle of a house fire, clueless of what to do. His Junior officers we're also lazy and incompetent but who knows what would have happened had they not taking things in hand themselves. Schettino obviously lacked the sterner stuff required for command of a large ship and therefore also was oblivious to the responsibility that goes along with carrying passengers aboard such a vessel. As soon as things went wrong, he was useless. He enjoyed wearing the uniform and the fancy suits, socializing with the beautiful people, going balls deep in a Moldovan mistress, and probably had just enough skill and nautical training to pass exams for his ship master's certificate. But he too, like the Indonesian helmsman, was lacking in some abilities required to do the job properly, apart from being a handsome face to mingle with the customers who called him Captain. Makes me wonder how he got his master's papers in the first place. I wouldn't let him command my bass boat around the lake looking for better fishing, much less appoint him master of a large ocean-going vessel. All that said I've kind of got away from my original point. Francesco Schettino should not have been shouldered with all of the punishment for this tragic grounding and I think that punishment was a bit too harsh for what was essentially an accident. While a ship's Master is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of his vessel, there are plenty of others who deserve to share some of the accountability for this incident. Mainly the powers that put such a clown in the captain's chair in the first place and those who gave him an incompetent helmsman. The complacency of his officers on the bridge falls upon his shoulders as well though, he failed to set high standards to correct their deficiencies. But I don't think he deserves nearly two decades in prison for that. Costa Crociere and whatever governing body issued his master's papers bear some responsibility as well and got off with not even a slap on the hand.
“Le faccio passare l’anima dei guai” doesn’t really translate to I will really hurt you, it’s more a menace regarding the consequences of his actions, the literal translation would be “I’ll make you go through the very soul of troubles”
I feel like the helmsman should not really be blamed for misunderstanding, instead the blame should be shifted to the shitty companies that hire cheap labor for rock bottom rates to command their ships and don’t make sure they are properly trained
@38:30 I am honestly impressed that Internet Historian's proactive security measures to thwart wikiFeet extend to blurring feet out of 1 second of footage on a secondary channel. Tremendous foresight, my dude!
Those engineers are absolutely worthy of the USS Enterprise. Bravery and brains under dire circumstances. Willing to sacrifice their lives to save lives.
Regarding Rustli Bin, in all fairness unless he lied on his resume (maybe he did idk but I haven't heard that so far), I think hiring a guy who barely understands English or Italian is kinda on the people who hired him.
@ׂ but he's not the one responsible for the company. The company is responsible for the company. They had more responsibility, yet they were obviously hiring based on people they felt they could exploit more easily. I'm not saying he's innocent, but the people who hired him were fucking stupid, and it's their job to make sure the person they're hiring is qualified.
@Ira van den Heuvel I agree but if the captain kept hearing his commands being repeatedly incorrectly followed and he knew he was going to perform a closer pass than ever before, then that was the time to step up to the plate. That's the price of admission for strutting around the ship acting like a captain!
@isabel lind which is why English is the international aviation language worldwide. You don't have those sorts of problems among flight crews because they are required to be proficient in English or they don't fly international. English is the language used for all international air traffic controllers and all pilots who fly international must be proficient. I don't believe cruise ships have similar requirements but I believe that is the point you are trying to make here, that they should. Or at least that the company in charge of ships operations would at least assemble it crews that can communicate effectively with each other. I don't know what happened on Costa Concordia with their helmsman who couldn't understand orders in English or Italian but I don't honestly believe the company would have hired him if they knew this were the case. I believe the fellow somehow faked his way into being hired to a position for which he was not qualified in any way. Costa Crociere should have been more diligent in their screening process but I don't feel bad for the helmsman who cocked up repeatedly because he should have known that he was in over his head to begin with and lives were at stake. If he had been able to comprehend the orders the captain was giving and executed them correctly, this tragedy would not have occurred. True, the captain was operating a bit on the reckless side and he is the one who bears ultimate responsibility for the safe operation of his vessel, but he gave orders for that safe operation that were not followed as expected. No I do not feel the least bit bad for the Indonesian helmsman. He should have been below deck swabbing toilets, not steering the ship and he knew it as well as anyone.
@Omustiia I feel bad for the man. Why the company wouldn't do their due diligence to ensure everyone they've got working on the bridge was working as a team and understood each other seems like an accident waiting to happen. If crews in the cockpits of airplanes all spoke different languages, what a mess it would be.
First of all: this is a fantastic way to make use of all the cut content in an entertaining meta format. Secondly: wow, the video was so full of assets that you had to do the digital equivalent of mastering a cellulose film cut. Props for working that out. And third: love your unique style and I always get excited when i see a new main channel upload like "oh nice, new IH video! I'll watch it while eating dinner". Thanks for the entertaining content IH & team.
Can't believe you animate these in Premiere. As an After Effects animator, I'd go insane! That said - I already knew exactly why these videos take so long. It's the same reason they're so incredible. The amount of attention to detail even in tedious hours of work. It always goes appreciated.
Y’all don’t know how rare it is to see an Italian public servant who’s actually dedicated to good public service. This man is refreshing, even if he was 5⭐️
I’m new to the Italian political sphere. Who exactly are Five Star in terms of their political alignment anyways? And on top of that, what did they do to make DeFalco start a beef with them? I’d heard something about him opposing an anti-migrant measure in Italy but that’s about all I could decipher.
Nice job Internet Historian. I am definitely one of the people that loves these longformat videos and watch them through 100% each time. Thank you for not succumbing to the easy uninspired 10min video algorithm garbage.
But, long video essays/long form videos have become a very successful thing for an years now YMS, folding, mauler, RLM, Jay Exci, they all have 2-3 hour long videos and it's definitely something people are stoked on
Or livestreams. I've seen a lot of great video producers move on to exclusively livestreaming because it's easier and superchats might be more lucrative.
Correction for the translation in the 33:05 bit. The guy never said that the Captain made them cook for him. What he said was "The Captain arrived with a woman that I did not recognize." (He is also using a tense that implies that this happens during the boarding) -then there was a cut- "At that time- our dishes started falling down" and blah blah blah. Basically, the interview was deliberately mistranslated and cut to make it look more sensational than it really is.
The blame was entirely placed on Captain Schettino's shoulders, but there was complacency in all areas of the ship's operation, far beyond the parts that he played. What's worse is, conditions were much better aboard the Concordia than most of the Costa fleet at the time. The emergency generator wasn't working properly due to lack of maintenance, and the emergency pumps can actually be run from the emergency generator, but weren't tested and kept in running order either. Before this incident, there was a worldwide complacency towards emergency drills, to the point where nobody was really sure how the whole evacuation plan really worked. On most vessels the evacuation plans left out so many important variables that in most real incidents they wouldn't have worked anyway.
I've dabbled in video editing before and could sense just how crazy the level of editing was, but even still this is impressive...it's a big reason why you're one of my favorite content creators that actually creates content
@Thesketchydude 13 If you go back even further and even more shark-like, Death Ship (1980) is about a sentient Nazi battleship that actively crashes into cruise ships so it can feed on the blood of the shipwrecked survivors.
I love your intro about the engineers and how the ship actually works. I am actually a marine engineer and as far as I know the EDG situation was only the way that it was because of different regulations between countries. I know that in the US ships are required to have their EDG's like 2 or 3 decks above sea level which prevents water from shutting the EDG down. If the Costa had been a US flag ship the EDG at least wouldnt have been getting flooded as well as overheating. It's also not so much bad design as banking on the fact that the captain knows how to drive. The EDG is really only ever used to start the ship from a cold start where nothing is online. Additionally in the shipping world the higher you get in pay grade the less work you do but the more responsibility you take. The captain is the person the company gets to blame when anything went wrong basically a scapegoat even though most of the time he's literally not even on the bridge. It's a pay increase in exchange for higher potential jail time, if you don't know that as a captain then you are perfect for your position.
Dude, you literally make any ad hilarious, I usually hate ads but yours are the exception, your comedy and vids make my day always, hope you’re doing good with everything going on around us
Seriously, the amount of work that goes into every one of y’all’s videos is INSANE. I’m studying to be a graphic designer, and oh my stars, every single asset is like 10-30 minutes of work just prep, sometimes. There’s no automatic button to click and make it ready. Props to your team, they’re absolutely legendary
I was so shocked by the spaghetti transition when I first saw it but now that I've heard u explain what went into it I think it's genius film making. $3.50 spent + the pot itself and I will always remember seeing that. great work man!
When he shows the files toward the end explaining why it takes so long to make these videos, it shows the Area 51 file. This might actually be all the vids he’s working on. Glad to know we are getting more from him in the future. Area 51 video is a masterpiece with one of the best anime battles of all time.
Your videos are all excellent on all channels. The amount of asset sourcing, subject research, script writing, editing, file organizing, and compiling that goes into each video you publish must be absolutely backbreaking. You run one hell of a shop, man.
The breakdown of how you put together / edit your videos is eye opening. I've barely dipped my toe in editing video. This would take months working all day every day. Incredible work mate.
Freaking genius problem solving with OBS. It sucks you couldn’t just export it, but well done coming up with a work around. I’d never have known the video wasn’t just exported, I watched the whole thing, riveted and impressed at how detailed it was.
Your videos are honestly editing masterpieces, I believed it before I saw the process and I’m even more amazed now. Wouldn’t be as incredible as it is if you didn’t take the time you do and it’s greatly appreciated
I love, LOVE how he puts so much effort into the ads as well! 🤣🤣. Someone needs to make a collection of all of them with the whole "ad time" on purpose misspelling included too 😂
I'm still impressed that you manage to have consistent uploads when there's this much editing that goes into the video, especially when you have multiple channels at a time. Kudos to you and your team
Imagine my surprise when I got informed by my viewers that my channel got mentioned in this video. I truly am honored. And the comment I gave in my video was 100% honest. Thank you Internet Historian for making this video, I am very glad to see so many people taking interest in the maritime world.
omg i had no idea making ur videos was so complex like i knew making videos was a big project but god damn this i would NEVER be able to do, Props to u and ur team ur newer videos are absolutely amazing and i honestly don't care how long it takes for u to upload videos since the quality and comedy is always funny as hell.
Seeing the amount of work it wracked to make these videos stresses me out hahaha thanks for all the work you do. One of the greatest channels on KZclip
The quality of this channel is so high, I am delighted to patreonise this as much as I can. I can relate to so much of the workload stress and issues too. Not at all surprised- particularly for something so we’ll made.
Oh my gosh! I know the feeling of stuff not rendering, and needing to record with OBS! The framerate stutters and dips take forever to re-sync! You all are incredible!
Guys, think about it. He didn't censor his hands, which are _way_ more identifiable, but he censored his feet. I think it's obvious that he must have tattoos (or some other sort of recognizable scars, birthmarks, or other unique features) on one or both of his feet and/ or ankles. Or maybe he's finally wearing that friendship anklet with _my_ name on it that I sent him. He's so sweet, I just _knew_ he cared. Just like I care about this segue to our sponsor... Also might just be to ward off Tarantino.
De Falco's phone conversation with Schettino is still funny. I especially love the bit where Schettino complains about it being dark and de Falco mocks him. "It's dark and you want to go home?"
Wow I have never seen a video so detailed in terms of literally describing the editing process, not as entertaining either! This video definitely is something else. So entertaining AND informative.
I really really liked how you explain your process here. Most people just do not know how much time it takes to make content in this fashion and this was a really good fast look into what it entails. As always - stellar video.
If news outlets were obligated to put their corrections on the front page or open the programme with them and so on, you'd see a whole lot fewer mistakes.
Really enjoyed the more in-depth explanation of certain events in this. The real treat was a behind the scenes look at exactly what it takes to make these masterpieces. It really showcases your skill not as an investigative journalist youtubeist(?😂) but also the dedication you have towards crafting the best videos you can. Take all the time you need, I'll keep rewatching your old videos over and over in the meantime. Cheers!
As a video editor myself, I just about died laughing as you described how you "rendered" the final edit. I've been in that same boat before and it is the worst feeling in the world when the render fails.
@Blake Tbh, fake news is a very real and troubling thing. The public everywhere, not just the states, have been lied to and misinformed for decades and it still continues to this day. Saying this does not make me a right wing fuck nut. The media played a huge part in selling the Iraq war, and many countless other bullshit stories, such as what’s going on in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Even in this video, you see Italian media, politicians and others in power spinning complete bullshit.
@Yozul1 "news" with very big quotation marks:D Problem is that actual journalist stories that try to remain neutral and report only facts always feel like empty and slow process to people. Why wait for an autopsy when you can make a wild guess and blame one of family members? If it all goes wrong you'll just print "We're sorry" near the headline about said family member being driven to suicide by combination of grief and accusations and insults:))
@Blake hey Trump doesnt own the concept of "fake news," in fact he has contributed to the proliferation of fake news because now anyone who questions the validity of a news source is seen as a right-wing moron. His concept of "fake news" is those that dont support what he believes and what makes him look good. Actual fake news has been a problem for decades now
Many thanks for the videos! In Italy there's unfortunately a widespread culture of bloodthirst to find a definitive culprit and have its head, no matter the complexity of the situations. Populist politicians and gossip medias jump on it right away too. Luckily there are people and institutions trying to balance this, but the pressure to find and punish the "Patient 0" (Covid reference) is high on the justice system. Cpt. S. definetely deserves consequences for being in charge of a ship having an accident, badly managing the situation and then outright leaving his duty. But people also wanted a hero and a bad guy, expecting to make examples of them and leaving out "minor characters". As for the Moby Prince, that's a big and sinister story for the evidence of the accident clearly hints to big, dangerous criminal traffic and deep corruption of italian maritime institutions. Of course it was never cleared as it should have been, the victims and their families still look for explainations. Anyone in a good position touching the subject is playing with fire. That instead of petty (while possible) games of power and attention would much better explain De Falco's demotion (though we might never know).
The best answer to an indignant 'why does it take so long for you to upload a video?!?!' is "hey, hows about you give producing a video, JUST IN EDITING, a try. Its NOT a quick process. Ever. Period." That being said, as someone who has taken on editing and VFX duties for various projects in the past, your demonstration of the workflow and process of compiling assets into a coherent finished product is absolutely lovely. Dealing with people that expect every content creator to have something new every few days is like those people that gripe about taxes and business but ultimately dont understand how taxes work or what its takes to operate a business, many people just simply have no clue the workload involved with simply editing elements into a video. Nevermind all of the work that goes into acquiring those assets, and the audio capture process, and even the drafting, rewriting, fact checking, proofreading (multiple times), before even setting up the microphone..... Production is an intricate machine. Any channel that does it quickly either has an entire team at every step spreading the workload, or is producing low effort content that just needs to be dumped to a basic editing program and spliced together. In fabrication there is a saying: "You can have it fast, you can have it cheap, or you can have it made well. Pick two." So, you youngins that havent spent the time pondering the work that goes into literally everything around you, just enjoy the content that comes out and while waiting patiently for the next video show some appreciation for the fact they even get made at all.
Holy shit I really appreciate all the work you do. Take as much time as you need for your videos because the quality of your stuff is amazing. Thank you for this q and a
There’s a documentary out there made solely of footage from passengers and the audio and video recordings from the coastguard and I highly recommend it - theres the entire conversation between Schettino and the coastguard controller and its brilliant. As a crew member on a cruise ship, it’s terrible that any of our captains would act this way and be reacting to anything like this the way he did, but the conversation is fantastic to listen to just with how together the controller had it and how he tried every trick in the book to get Schettino back on board to co-ordinate evacuation.
In my opinion, Schettino deserved his punishment once he started lying about the situation to the passengers and shirking responsibility. Everything else I can accept, his bad moves and judgment up to the point of the crash are whatever, but as soon as he knew water was coming on board the ship and people's lives were at stake, he should have done everything he could to save those people. And if he couldn't handle that responsibility (which he clearly couldn't) fucker shouldn't have been made a captain.
He deserved punishment, but he didnt deserve to be made the scape goat, he made bad decisions and the time he got was justified but he wasnt the only one in the wrong, yet he was blamed entirely for the disaster. The helmsmans many fuck ups, the complacency about procedure, the other lying crew mates, and the fact Costa Crocier (idk how to spell that) lied about thier policy to redirect responsibility from them to the captain, shouldn't go ignored
@The Viking Sock cause that's what he was trained for and pledged to do... That's like a firefighter coming to your house to put out a fire and then bailing cause it was hotter than he thought
See, I actually feel opposite. I get not giving all information to the passengers because it cause a panic/pandemonium and people could get hurt by trampling, jumping, acting out of fear, etc. The bad choices and judgement I feel are in direct contradiction to what a captain should (and is required by law) to be. But, everyone sees things through their lenses, and I'm not discrediting your opinion as I can see your point. I think we all agree him leaving the ship first was a total douchebag move though lol
It's both absolutely amazing and inspiring to see your work. I geniunely enjoy your content a lot, I love that you're committed to quality and actually care about the content you put out and us, the viewers. I'm sincerely grateful to you for all the things you put out, I appreciate it a lot. I'm thankful for it, I truly am. Your content just not only entertains me but it also inspires me a lot; as I'm a editor and motion graphics designer - But your content just helps me in general with a lot of things. How to write, how to edit, how to research, how to all and so on.. you get the idea. Your stuff is just very inspiring for me, both in terms of skills and in terms of being a good and rational person. You're lovely. I wish you, and everyone you care about, all the well wishes and good intentions. Please keep making stuff for as long you can, and for as long you want. Love ya!
Wow; this entire video is super great to just get more in depth info on the topic, how you researched and the like; but WOW-- I'm just really, really impressed and scared of the compositing in your video files. 40+ min is so dang much, and there really is so much that goes into making even the simplest animations and such, and this was a great peek behind the curtain. I didn't know premiere files could *look* like that, it's insane 😂 Thanks for sharing!
I like how Martin the Magician’s true act in the end was disappearing from the face of the earth. Atleast he was human enough to let one of the actors out of the box.
Oh boy, that last part about the rendering, I felt that. You gotta render repeatedly as you edit, Premiere will only attempt to render unrendered frames, so it's best to render whenever you've completed an individual scene or a particularly hard shot or whatever. If you get it rendered earlier, you won't be smacked with a massive list of errors and Premiere won't freak out about it.
XQC missing the text on the screen to note it wasn't a real image is par for the course. lol - Literally... he would. Also hilarious, since that is who's image popped in my head, the moment you said "some people".

That part about screen recording through OBS was absolutely barbaric
@caduhidalgo4996 little did he know... the hole would bring them together
How was it like being stuck in a cave?
@Cadú Hidalgo u got your wish
Dad?!??!? Wrudh?
it's dad
As cowardly as it was for Martin the Magician to just immediately run away, it's good that (even while presumably panicking and out of his mind with fear) he remembered to unlatch the box so that the woman inside wouldn't be trapped.
@Squash for sale! ok? And? The dude was on a sinking ship with death rapidly approaching, you definitely wouldn’t have done any better
@toxic_icecream There was a note at the bottom of the scene mentioning the magician did that
How is it cowardly to run from a sinking ship lmfao.
I mean hes a magician, its no surprise he 'vanished' from the stage XD
@Libbathegreat A true magician takes care of his babes at all times
‘Schettino on the rocks’ sounds like a great name for an incredibly weak whisky drink
It’s a normal shot of whiskey but the bartender has to slap you with a rag drenched in seawater
@The Effing Ralyks ahahahahaha
"It wasn't rendered properly"
Me who barely can edit a video: Still hits!
Hilarious! That’s a great idea!
*Just remember that the true victim of this tragedy was actually Domnica Cemortan who died twice. Once on the witness stand and then a second death afterwards with the crush on her psychological brain*
The ‘C’ in Cemortan stands for Sekiro
because… of course people found something she… tried to hide
@Libbathegreat I think this is more of language barrier and not being able to convey what she wanted to say in English. Maybe she just straight up thought that but idk
BAHAHAHAH
On the Filipino guy 'claiming' the captain was eating as the ship sank. My partner is a bilingual Filipino and he suspects there might be some intentional miscommunication going on with the Filipino crew member and the interviewer. The guy in the interview was likely just referring to the event earlier in the day, where Schettino and Cemortan had dinner together before returning to the bridge. Also, my partner notes that this particular news network is rather infamous for taking interviews and showing them out of context. Not super important, but we felt it was interesting to bring up. If anything, it shows that the point about the media being incredibly unreliable in this case still stands.
Your boyfriend.
@sydapa dude saw the chance to become famous and went with it
@sydapa He was probably just going along with the established story.
Pinoy here too and man I dont know why our overseas workers just straight lie so much
I remember when the story was still new, and the narrative that I saw and still thought was the truth until watching IH’s documentary (as I never bother looking into this disaster again many years later after it happened), was that the ship crashed because the captain was busy in his suite with that lover of his, stuffin’ her muffin.
The accident itself isn't solely the captain's fault, but the bungled response to the accident is solely his fault. Crisis management is one of the most important aspects of leadership.
@fides5566 definitely not, he would probably lose his job and be fined for negligence however
I wonder if he stayed and helped the passengers like he should, would he still go to jail?
@Mushyroom he would have been treated as a hero if he'd done the bare minimum expected of his position
@Mushyroom To be more fair, if you know you’re fucked from bungling your job this bad, then your only hope for redemption is how you handle the crisis. It’s even more of a reason to stand up straight and go hard on your duties in the now current situation you may have caused.
This.
this laid back commentary is so cozy bro
Hey wavy!
Hard to hear because i work with loud machines. Luckily ive heard it enough that i can get by with yhe snippets
This entire channel is cozy bro
So Shoneys.
I've listened to this video a dozen times just for the sake of his voice and the way it's all presented. Good way to kill time at work when I'm just plugging away at the books. Set some Internet Historian and watch the hours fly by :)
The more I learn about de Falco, the more I'd vote for the guy. Between "Get the fuck back on board" and being willing to go against the organization he worked for when they were wrong in that fire, the dude seems like his whole focus is on the people of Italy. Good dude.
@qaiser 1960’s-90’s at least observably had *some* politicians who still worked for the people as opposed to self-enrichment. It’s always been this way, but it’s far more ubiquitous now than it was in the past.
@its d0nk when was politics not like this?
@SignorAde That's a damn shame 😞
@charlie, captain of ravioli That's not what he actually said there, he said "Le faccio passare l'anima dei guai", which is very hard to translate accurately. If I had to try, it would probably go something like "I'll have you go through the soul of (all) troubles".
In other words, De Falco wasn't throwing around puns.
Isn’t it sad that there’s no hope and no place for an altruistic personality in modern politics? They get demolished by the unhinged dirty politicians who want to take them down. There’s no hope for ever un-breaking that situation. 😔
How is it that the more I learn about De Falco, the more I respect and admire this man? At this point I nothing will shake my belief that his name and rank is *actually* Captain deFalcon.
@DoubleSloth Gaming *Grand High Admiral, Leader of the 1st Sky Fleet DeFalco
Admiral DeFalco probably prefers the air.
@Abigail
And he left as soon as the party became more and more radicalized. A lot of party members did. That's why they lost so many seats.
@Abigail Didn't he leave when they went harder right, though?
Man, what a standup guy Internet Historian is. Even after all of the absolute incompetence and shitty behavior of the guilty parties, he still tries to make sure people don't participate in targeted harassment against them: a man of quality!
@Clyde MacTavish Which is becoming less basic unfortunately. It's sad we gotta point out this kinda stuff because of how many people wouldn't do that, either from the "can't control my audience lol" mentality or just hoping the person in question does get harassed.
that's not really standup.. that's just basic human decency...
Holy shit dude, I thought you did this stuff in After Effects! It's no wonder the shit won't render! I've found over the last 2 years that AE usually saves me from opening up Photoshop to do cutouts or similar stuff because it's selections tools are actually good.
@Arnold Harding
Lol! You are clearly talking to yourself. 😂 You are the person who randomly picked on someone for posting an interesting comment “in the wrong place.” Nice try guy.
@Anti - Ethnic Cleansing Look I don't know who hurt you but I know it wasn't me. Don't come at me with all that crying after you hit me with the "Oh boo hoo" BS
Pick a lane.
@Arnold Harding
Good for me that you are trying to police the comment section, and being a jerk to people? I don’t see how that is good for anyone.
@Anti - Ethnic Cleansing ok good for you dude.
@Arnold Harding
Oh boo hoo. A lot of people do that to make sure that their comment can be seen. Not only because of YT cen: sorship issues, but because there are many thousands of comments here (so people will pick a thread near the top, and stick their remark in there).
It also could have very well been an accident. “Rilluma” didn’t tag anyone in his/her initial comment, and very well might have thought he/she was posting the remark in the main comment section, instead of in this thread (or rilluma thought that he/she had a different thread open and was posting under that).
Cry more. I’m thankful to have come across it, because I’m going to go educate myself now about MS Estonia!
I wonder how many people got out alive because the engineers' quick thinking and massive stones in keeping the generators running WHILE THE SHIP WAS SINKING.
@Attigator Especially since the water pumps required three generators to work. A solution could've been to just put three generators here, and the other three there.
Then again I have no ship or nautical design/engineering experience so what do I know
@2percentright the issue with that is stability. Putting heavy weight towards the bottom of the boat and below the waterline supports buoyancy and stabilizes the ship from capsizing. But yeah, keep the separated would help
This really makes me question the idea of placing all the major electrical systems right next to each other. The chance a strike is going to rip open multiple holds is pretty much guaranteed. Distribute them across the ship. Or hell, at least above the water line
Internet Historian blurring his feet to prevent people from selling his feet pics online is the kind of content I live for
He is also wearing the exact same pants I am wearing right now. That is the only reason why I saw the blurred feet.
Looks like tonight I'll have to resort to using deepfakes, _again._
I think the footage was blurred because it was _saucy_ enough... geddit?
I'll see myself over the cliff... 🌊
@Rawhide Kobayashi looks to be a tiled floor. Now i'll be in my carpeted bathtub if you need me.
One thing I can’t seem to figure out - hotel director Manrico Giampedroni did not abandon the ship. In fact, he was the very last person rescued. He broke his leg helping others escape and kept himself alive by climbing onto a table and banging a pot against the wall to be heard. He was praised as a hero in many news articles. Why was he given the second most severe sentence of any of the five officers charged? I can’t find any information about his plea deal. Thanks!
On Historians video, it was said Giampadroni was one of the 2 officers who had the chance to opt for community service, unlike 3 other officers who got standard jail sentences. They were shorter than what they were supposed to be anyway, so I guess it could have gone worse for him.
Here's what I can summarize base on a quick google of his position and what we saw in the video. His position as the hotel director meant it was his responsibility to ensure that the passengers were evacuated in this scenario and since he was on the bridge at the time of the crash, that meant he was part of the initial cover-up towards the passengers that delayed the evacuation and caused some people to become trapped. He was also blamed for the chaotic nature of the evacuation.
knowing spanish, specially argentine spanish I can understand quite a bit of what they are saying and damn that phone call, the subtitles and hearing how mad he is doesn't make justice (although what was done is the best one can do), I've never heard such dress down directed to a an adult the age of schettino, I've seen people arguing like that, I've argued like that, but this was more akin to a parental figure scorning their little kid for something they did and the child is completely terrified
@froggymusicman do you really not? Hmm interesting, i mean, I've had many moments of barely understanding a single word and sometimes less than that of a dialogue in italian, someone could say "i forgot my briefcase" (just to say something) and I'd be like "he forgot... something" or if i were to put an audiobook in Italian I wouldn't be able to say that I have an understanding of what the book is about but some sentences and the weight of some words in those sentences, in this particular case, insults and insult adjacent words and phrases (because you know, the same word doesn't necessarily carry the same weight in every language) i do catch
There are some videos from ecolinguist i think that you can watch on yt about how much latin, italian, Portuguese and spanish speakers can understand eachother although if i remember correctly those are loose words? It's been a hot minute since I've seen them
I guess I'm just lucky enough that from this specific "conversation" I'm able to understand like 35% or 40% of what it's being said and then filling the rest in
Oh, I think, we all understand how mad, he was.
As someone who always has trouble with storage space on my computer, seeing his video file taking up 241GB is enough to make me sweat.
I just realized that in the ad. The dog can talk but no one can hear him speak. Everyone would have freaked out. Luckily Raycon ear buds are such great quality and price, that the crisis was averted. You did it again Raycon Man.
Schettino was basically the only one where justice was served, kind of. DeFalco and the engineers deserved better, the officers far worse.
@Ira van den Heuvel while he was undoubtedly used as a scapegoat, he deserved an even higher sentence regardless. for even if incompetence shouldn't be punished too harshly, cowardice should, especially given what said incompetence and cowardice resulted in (dozens dead XD)
Personally, I think Schettino received a harsher punishment than was appropriate. Yeah, he was operating his vessel in a somewhat reckless manner and he did the wrong thing at almost every point following the collision, but he was not malicious. Just foolish and incompetent. He should never have been allowed to command in the first place. And while folks call him a coward for abandoning ship and shirking his responsibility to his crew and passengers, I personally think that him walking away like he did was probably the best thing for everyone. He was like a little kid running around in the middle of a house fire, clueless of what to do. His Junior officers we're also lazy and incompetent but who knows what would have happened had they not taking things in hand themselves. Schettino obviously lacked the sterner stuff required for command of a large ship and therefore also was oblivious to the responsibility that goes along with carrying passengers aboard such a vessel. As soon as things went wrong, he was useless. He enjoyed wearing the uniform and the fancy suits, socializing with the beautiful people, going balls deep in a Moldovan mistress, and probably had just enough skill and nautical training to pass exams for his ship master's certificate. But he too, like the Indonesian helmsman, was lacking in some abilities required to do the job properly, apart from being a handsome face to mingle with the customers who called him Captain. Makes me wonder how he got his master's papers in the first place. I wouldn't let him command my bass boat around the lake looking for better fishing, much less appoint him master of a large ocean-going vessel.
All that said I've kind of got away from my original point. Francesco Schettino should not have been shouldered with all of the punishment for this tragic grounding and I think that punishment was a bit too harsh for what was essentially an accident. While a ship's Master is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of his vessel, there are plenty of others who deserve to share some of the accountability for this incident. Mainly the powers that put such a clown in the captain's chair in the first place and those who gave him an incompetent helmsman. The complacency of his officers on the bridge falls upon his shoulders as well though, he failed to set high standards to correct their deficiencies. But I don't think he deserves nearly two decades in prison for that. Costa Crociere and whatever governing body issued his master's papers bear some responsibility as well and got off with not even a slap on the hand.
"You may have saved yourself from the sea, but I will really hurt you" is a hard af line, followed right up by a stellar pun, De Falco is a king
@Leo86channel that is somehow even harder lmao god De Falco is such a turbochad
I love when he mocks him saying, “it’s dark and you want to go home?”
@Leo86channel That's an even harder line tbh
I'm obsessed with his face getting redder
“Le faccio passare l’anima dei guai” doesn’t really translate to I will really hurt you, it’s more a menace regarding the consequences of his actions, the literal translation would be “I’ll make you go through the very soul of troubles”
I feel like the helmsman should not really be blamed for misunderstanding, instead the blame should be shifted to the shitty companies that hire cheap labor for rock bottom rates to command their ships and don’t make sure they are properly trained
Eh, both are to blame
Mate you nailed it
@FrozenHaxor yeah but if a university gives a doctor a degree when they have no idea what their doing the the university is liable
I agree. He did take the job while being unqualified, but they should have never ever hired him in the first place.
Yeah he was part of the problem but as soon as the captain lied to the passengers and the rescue team, he was responsible for people's death.
@38:30 I am honestly impressed that Internet Historian's proactive security measures to thwart wikiFeet extend to blurring feet out of 1 second of footage on a secondary channel. Tremendous foresight, my dude!
Those engineers are absolutely worthy of the USS Enterprise. Bravery and brains under dire circumstances. Willing to sacrifice their lives to save lives.
De falco’ s face getting redder and redder is a good touch.
This really was a well done production
Regarding Rustli Bin, in all fairness unless he lied on his resume (maybe he did idk but I haven't heard that so far), I think hiring a guy who barely understands English or Italian is kinda on the people who hired him.
@ׂ but he's not the one responsible for the company. The company is responsible for the company. They had more responsibility, yet they were obviously hiring based on people they felt they could exploit more easily. I'm not saying he's innocent, but the people who hired him were fucking stupid, and it's their job to make sure the person they're hiring is qualified.
@Ira van den Heuvel I agree but if the captain kept hearing his commands being repeatedly incorrectly followed and he knew he was going to perform a closer pass than ever before, then that was the time to step up to the plate. That's the price of admission for strutting around the ship acting like a captain!
@isabel lind which is why English is the international aviation language worldwide. You don't have those sorts of problems among flight crews because they are required to be proficient in English or they don't fly international. English is the language used for all international air traffic controllers and all pilots who fly international must be proficient. I don't believe cruise ships have similar requirements but I believe that is the point you are trying to make here, that they should. Or at least that the company in charge of ships operations would at least assemble it crews that can communicate effectively with each other. I don't know what happened on Costa Concordia with their helmsman who couldn't understand orders in English or Italian but I don't honestly believe the company would have hired him if they knew this were the case. I believe the fellow somehow faked his way into being hired to a position for which he was not qualified in any way. Costa Crociere should have been more diligent in their screening process but I don't feel bad for the helmsman who cocked up repeatedly because he should have known that he was in over his head to begin with and lives were at stake. If he had been able to comprehend the orders the captain was giving and executed them correctly, this tragedy would not have occurred. True, the captain was operating a bit on the reckless side and he is the one who bears ultimate responsibility for the safe operation of his vessel, but he gave orders for that safe operation that were not followed as expected. No I do not feel the least bit bad for the Indonesian helmsman. He should have been below deck swabbing toilets, not steering the ship and he knew it as well as anyone.
@Omustiia I feel bad for the man. Why the company wouldn't do their due diligence to ensure everyone they've got working on the bridge was working as a team and understood each other seems like an accident waiting to happen. If crews in the cockpits of airplanes all spoke different languages, what a mess it would be.
”This is all just entertainment, it’s not news” is a surprisingly good description i haven’t heard before.
It's literally entertainment news
@Aza Aza They both used the same "it's not news" defense when they were sued.
@Colin Taylor that was not Rachael Maddow.
Sounds line Fox News trying to explain Tucker Carlsons employment.
The Legend really said to a captain of a cruise ship, “I will cause you a boatload of trouble.” Give this man a medal of honor!
“Between the events of 1912 and 2012 are the reason I’m a Conservative”
Why did that make me laugh so much 😂
First of all: this is a fantastic way to make use of all the cut content in an entertaining meta format.
Secondly: wow, the video was so full of assets that you had to do the digital equivalent of mastering a cellulose film cut. Props for working that out.
And third: love your unique style and I always get excited when i see a new main channel upload like "oh nice, new IH video! I'll watch it while eating dinner". Thanks for the entertaining content IH & team.
Can't believe you animate these in Premiere. As an After Effects animator, I'd go insane! That said - I already knew exactly why these videos take so long. It's the same reason they're so incredible. The amount of attention to detail even in tedious hours of work. It always goes appreciated.
Y’all don’t know how rare it is to see an Italian public servant who’s actually dedicated to good public service. This man is refreshing, even if he was 5⭐️
I’m new to the Italian political sphere. Who exactly are Five Star in terms of their political alignment anyways?
And on top of that, what did they do to make DeFalco start a beef with them? I’d heard something about him opposing an anti-migrant measure in Italy but that’s about all I could decipher.
Nice job Internet Historian. I am definitely one of the people that loves these longformat videos and watch them through 100% each time. Thank you for not succumbing to the easy uninspired 10min video algorithm garbage.
But, long video essays/long form videos have become a very successful thing for an years now
YMS, folding, mauler, RLM, Jay Exci, they all have 2-3 hour long videos and it's definitely something people are stoked on
@A_Neko _C
You only get your news from Internet Historian??! Wtf. Lol. That’s ridiculous.
Or livestreams. I've seen a lot of great video producers move on to exclusively livestreaming because it's easier and superchats might be more lucrative.
Correction for the translation in the 33:05 bit. The guy never said that the Captain made them cook for him. What he said was "The Captain arrived with a woman that I did not recognize." (He is also using a tense that implies that this happens during the boarding) -then there was a cut- "At that time- our dishes started falling down" and blah blah blah. Basically, the interview was deliberately mistranslated and cut to make it look more sensational than it really is.
The engineers are really the heroes… takes a lot of guts to be hip deep in water working on electrical panels with a screwdriver…
The blame was entirely placed on Captain Schettino's shoulders, but there was complacency in all areas of the ship's operation, far beyond the parts that he played. What's worse is, conditions were much better aboard the Concordia than most of the Costa fleet at the time.
The emergency generator wasn't working properly due to lack of maintenance, and the emergency pumps can actually be run from the emergency generator, but weren't tested and kept in running order either.
Before this incident, there was a worldwide complacency towards emergency drills, to the point where nobody was really sure how the whole evacuation plan really worked. On most vessels the evacuation plans left out so many important variables that in most real incidents they wouldn't have worked anyway.
The conversation between the Captain and is De Falco is hilarious. Its like talking to a kid on the phone, but they're out of spanking range 😂
I've dabbled in video editing before and could sense just how crazy the level of editing was, but even still this is impressive...it's a big reason why you're one of my favorite content creators that actually creates content
I now can't stop picturing what a Jaws movie would be like if you replaced the shark with a killer cruise ship ...
Thank you Internet Historian.
@hawkeye5955 Nah. It's too small to be the Bismarck. Plus, it's just abandoned after eating its crew, not sunken.
@Scott Symonds : Is the battleship Bismarck?
@Thesketchydude 13 If you go back even further and even more shark-like, Death Ship (1980) is about a sentient Nazi battleship that actively crashes into cruise ships so it can feed on the blood of the shipwrecked survivors.
@Edgar Allan Pwned we're going to need a smaller boat. Much, much smaller.
@Edgar Allan Pwned Dammit you beat me to it
I love your intro about the engineers and how the ship actually works. I am actually a marine engineer and as far as I know the EDG situation was only the way that it was because of different regulations between countries. I know that in the US ships are required to have their EDG's like 2 or 3 decks above sea level which prevents water from shutting the EDG down. If the Costa had been a US flag ship the EDG at least wouldnt have been getting flooded as well as overheating. It's also not so much bad design as banking on the fact that the captain knows how to drive. The EDG is really only ever used to start the ship from a cold start where nothing is online. Additionally in the shipping world the higher you get in pay grade the less work you do but the more responsibility you take. The captain is the person the company gets to blame when anything went wrong basically a scapegoat even though most of the time he's literally not even on the bridge. It's a pay increase in exchange for higher potential jail time, if you don't know that as a captain then you are perfect for your position.
Dude, you literally make any ad hilarious, I usually hate ads but yours are the exception, your comedy and vids make my day always, hope you’re doing good with everything going on around us
Seriously, the amount of work that goes into every one of y’all’s videos is INSANE. I’m studying to be a graphic designer, and oh my stars, every single asset is like 10-30 minutes of work just prep, sometimes. There’s no automatic button to click and make it ready. Props to your team, they’re absolutely legendary
I was so shocked by the spaghetti transition when I first saw it but now that I've heard u explain what went into it I think it's genius film making. $3.50 spent + the pot itself and I will always remember seeing that. great work man!
"This is all just entertainment it's not news." God damn man. Not taking any prisoners today, are we?
Corporate media is awful
But is he wrong?
The cut from you being genuinely empathetic towards Schettino to Schettino transposed on a car going off a mountain was an inspired choice
'anyway, can't be too sad, CAR!'
When he shows the files toward the end explaining why it takes so long to make these videos, it shows the Area 51 file. This might actually be all the vids he’s working on. Glad to know we are getting more from him in the future. Area 51 video is a masterpiece with one of the best anime battles of all time.
Your videos are all excellent on all channels. The amount of asset sourcing, subject research, script writing, editing, file organizing, and compiling that goes into each video you publish must be absolutely backbreaking. You run one hell of a shop, man.
The breakdown of how you put together / edit your videos is eye opening. I've barely dipped my toe in editing video. This would take months working all day every day. Incredible work mate.
Freaking genius problem solving with OBS. It sucks you couldn’t just export it, but well done coming up with a work around. I’d never have known the video wasn’t just exported, I watched the whole thing, riveted and impressed at how detailed it was.
Your videos are honestly editing masterpieces, I believed it before I saw the process and I’m even more amazed now. Wouldn’t be as incredible as it is if you didn’t take the time you do and it’s greatly appreciated
He legit censored his feet. This man understands the internet.
wikifeet in shambles
Rule 34 Internet Historian is indeed a worrying concept
He is THE Internet Historian after all
I love, LOVE how he puts so much effort into the ads as well! 🤣🤣. Someone needs to make a collection of all of them with the whole "ad time" on purpose misspelling included too 😂
I'm still impressed that you manage to have consistent uploads when there's this much editing that goes into the video, especially when you have multiple channels at a time. Kudos to you and your team
You're the only KZclipr that actively makes me LOOK FORWARD to the *ads*
What about Count Dankula?
wats the song at 10:39
IH is genuinely a good person. Makes me appreciate him & his team all the more
Holy shit, that phone call with De Falco is fucking amazing. What a legend that man is.
Imagine my surprise when I got informed by my viewers that my channel got mentioned in this video. I truly am honored. And the comment I gave in my video was 100% honest. Thank you Internet Historian for making this video, I am very glad to see so many people taking interest in the maritime world.
Hi Vince love the channel
Yes thanks Vince! You're a good lad
Your videos were excellent as well! You added a lot of good context and were very educational.
omg i had no idea making ur videos was so complex like i knew making videos was a big project but god damn this i would NEVER be able to do, Props to u and ur team ur newer videos are absolutely amazing and i honestly don't care how long it takes for u to upload videos since the quality and comedy is always funny as hell.
Seeing the amount of work it wracked to make these videos stresses me out hahaha thanks for all the work you do. One of the greatest channels on KZclip
Please don't stop making quality videos. No matter how long it takes :)
New video should be up on the main channel within 24 hours
The quality of this channel is so high, I am delighted to patreonise this as much as I can. I can relate to so much of the workload stress and issues too. Not at all surprised- particularly for something so we’ll made.
Oh my gosh! I know the feeling of stuff not rendering, and needing to record with OBS! The framerate stutters and dips take forever to re-sync! You all are incredible!
Internet historian being incredibly smart by censoring his feet
@Ace Phoenix But he did show his kitchen and his buddy and that's more than enough hints. Someone will find him
Guys, think about it. He didn't censor his hands, which are _way_ more identifiable, but he censored his feet. I think it's obvious that he must have tattoos (or some other sort of recognizable scars, birthmarks, or other unique features) on one or both of his feet and/ or ankles.
Or maybe he's finally wearing that friendship anklet with _my_ name on it that I sent him. He's so sweet, I just _knew_ he cared. Just like I care about this segue to our sponsor...
Also might just be to ward off Tarantino.
You gotta maintain market value
@Jeremias Westmeier the spaghetti bit
That’s what I came down to say
De Falco's phone conversation with Schettino is still funny. I especially love the bit where Schettino complains about it being dark and de Falco mocks him. "It's dark and you want to go home?"
Wow, watching the ‘making of’ was almost as interesting as the Q&A.
Great work ❤
Wow I have never seen a video so detailed in terms of literally describing the editing process, not as entertaining either! This video definitely is something else. So entertaining AND informative.
Never change. Love the length, love the quality. Don't care they take forever to come out.
I really really liked how you explain your process here. Most people just do not know how much time it takes to make content in this fashion and this was a really good fast look into what it entails. As always - stellar video.
I liked how Histroian sounded genuinely pissed off when the news stations made mistakes
38:30 I love how he censored the toes lmao. truly high attention to details
If news outlets were obligated to put their corrections on the front page or open the programme with them and so on, you'd see a whole lot fewer mistakes.
This production team is a talented gift to humanity.
Would love a long version, especially concerning the technical team and their getaway.
Long videos are the best!!! 5 minutes is not enough. Love learning all this background stuff.
Really enjoyed the more in-depth explanation of certain events in this. The real treat was a behind the scenes look at exactly what it takes to make these masterpieces. It really showcases your skill not as an investigative journalist youtubeist(?😂) but also the dedication you have towards crafting the best videos you can.
Take all the time you need, I'll keep rewatching your old videos over and over in the meantime. Cheers!
As a video editor myself, I just about died laughing as you described how you "rendered" the final edit. I've been in that same boat before and it is the worst feeling in the world when the render fails.
Internet Historian really is a better journalist than any other news outlet that reported this
@Blake Tbh, fake news is a very real and troubling thing. The public everywhere, not just the states, have been lied to and misinformed for decades and it still continues to this day. Saying this does not make me a right wing fuck nut. The media played a huge part in selling the Iraq war, and many countless other bullshit stories, such as what’s going on in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Even in this video, you see Italian media, politicians and others in power spinning complete bullshit.
@Yozul1 "news" with very big quotation marks:D
Problem is that actual journalist stories that try to remain neutral and report only facts always feel like empty and slow process to people. Why wait for an autopsy when you can make a wild guess and blame one of family members? If it all goes wrong you'll just print "We're sorry" near the headline about said family member being driven to suicide by combination of grief and accusations and insults:))
@Blake
"Sir, you have a bunch of reporters trying to storm our front door and gentleman from Times, who'll arrive at 3 o'clock."
This is an anecdote from newspaper era. Not all "reporters" and media are made equal, most of them don't deserve to be called journalists and twisted take on gonzo journalism that aim to sale not even opinions instead of facts, but just screen time, is hardly anywhere near journalism.
"Journalism is dead."©®™
@Blake hey Trump doesnt own the concept of "fake news," in fact he has contributed to the proliferation of fake news because now anyone who questions the validity of a news source is seen as a right-wing moron. His concept of "fake news" is those that dont support what he believes and what makes him look good. Actual fake news has been a problem for decades now
Where do you think he got a lot of his information form
Many thanks for the videos! In Italy there's unfortunately a widespread culture of bloodthirst to find a definitive culprit and have its head, no matter the complexity of the situations. Populist politicians and gossip medias jump on it right away too. Luckily there are people and institutions trying to balance this, but the pressure to find and punish the "Patient 0" (Covid reference) is high on the justice system. Cpt. S. definetely deserves consequences for being in charge of a ship having an accident, badly managing the situation and then outright leaving his duty. But people also wanted a hero and a bad guy, expecting to make examples of them and leaving out "minor characters".
As for the Moby Prince, that's a big and sinister story for the evidence of the accident clearly hints to big, dangerous criminal traffic and deep corruption of italian maritime institutions. Of course it was never cleared as it should have been, the victims and their families still look for explainations. Anyone in a good position touching the subject is playing with fire. That instead of petty (while possible) games of power and attention would much better explain De Falco's demotion (though we might never know).
Take your time doing these videos. Don't rush them for us. It would be nice if you do more videos talking about other ships!
The best answer to an indignant 'why does it take so long for you to upload a video?!?!' is "hey, hows about you give producing a video, JUST IN EDITING, a try. Its NOT a quick process. Ever. Period."
That being said, as someone who has taken on editing and VFX duties for various projects in the past, your demonstration of the workflow and process of compiling assets into a coherent finished product is absolutely lovely. Dealing with people that expect every content creator to have something new every few days is like those people that gripe about taxes and business but ultimately dont understand how taxes work or what its takes to operate a business, many people just simply have no clue the workload involved with simply editing elements into a video. Nevermind all of the work that goes into acquiring those assets, and the audio capture process, and even the drafting, rewriting, fact checking, proofreading (multiple times), before even setting up the microphone..... Production is an intricate machine. Any channel that does it quickly either has an entire team at every step spreading the workload, or is producing low effort content that just needs to be dumped to a basic editing program and spliced together. In fabrication there is a saying: "You can have it fast, you can have it cheap, or you can have it made well. Pick two." So, you youngins that havent spent the time pondering the work that goes into literally everything around you, just enjoy the content that comes out and while waiting patiently for the next video show some appreciation for the fact they even get made at all.
Holy shit I really appreciate all the work you do. Take as much time as you need for your videos because the quality of your stuff is amazing. Thank you for this q and a
Thanks for all your hard work your team puts into your videos. Your content is hard to beat. Cheers 🍻
"Do you want to go home, Schettino? It's dark and you want to go home?" LMAO this deserved to be in the main video
@Paulo Zavaleta I found the video!
You still want it?
@Harri Foster Any links you could share?
There’s a documentary out there made solely of footage from passengers and the audio and video recordings from the coastguard and I highly recommend it - theres the entire conversation between Schettino and the coastguard controller and its brilliant. As a crew member on a cruise ship, it’s terrible that any of our captains would act this way and be reacting to anything like this the way he did, but the conversation is fantastic to listen to just with how together the controller had it and how he tried every trick in the book to get Schettino back on board to co-ordinate evacuation.
I agree. That was the best part in the recording :D
de falco is a man i can really respect. he literally fucked schettino with words.
the captain goes down with the ship
Really enjoyed the peak into what it takes to make these videos, pretty mind boggling to see how much effort/creativity goes into just a few seconds
Your longer videos are worth the wait! Plus it's nice to go back and rewatch
"Basically the engineers are the main heroes of the story ".
aha as usual i see.
Except for the ones that designed the ship and that crap electrical system layout.
Engineers are nothing less than unsung heroes
You have to be proffesional to be an engineer
Seeing what you guys decided to cut is impressive as hell. All the work you did and the ability to see when it just doesn’t work.
I actually started genuinely feeling good about Raycon Man before catching myself wondering what the hell I was thinking.
So you're saying you don't want him to be happy?
*YOU MONSTER*
His father was killed by wired headphones.
what?
Just paired 😂
@Stacie Mohler no really
I always rewatch all Internet Historian viseos from time to time, that's how they good are :)
Much respect for all the work ya'll do collectively. On all channels. 👍🏻
Please don't stop making long videos like Cost of Concordia!
I am amazed by the level of editing that goes into these videos!!! Thank you so much!
This is just as fantastic as the main channel vid.
Great Historianing Mr Internet.
In my opinion, Schettino deserved his punishment once he started lying about the situation to the passengers and shirking responsibility. Everything else I can accept, his bad moves and judgment up to the point of the crash are whatever, but as soon as he knew water was coming on board the ship and people's lives were at stake, he should have done everything he could to save those people.
And if he couldn't handle that responsibility (which he clearly couldn't) fucker shouldn't have been made a captain.
it shouldn't have been captain in the first place. Whoever employed him is just as much too blame
He deserved punishment, but he didnt deserve to be made the scape goat, he made bad decisions and the time he got was justified but he wasnt the only one in the wrong, yet he was blamed entirely for the disaster.
The helmsmans many fuck ups, the complacency about procedure, the other lying crew mates, and the fact Costa Crocier (idk how to spell that) lied about thier policy to redirect responsibility from them to the captain, shouldn't go ignored
@The Viking Sock cause that's what he was trained for and pledged to do... That's like a firefighter coming to your house to put out a fire and then bailing cause it was hotter than he thought
Yeah, but how does someone know, if he/she is able to handle something like that, without being in such a situation before?
See, I actually feel opposite. I get not giving all information to the passengers because it cause a panic/pandemonium and people could get hurt by trampling, jumping, acting out of fear, etc. The bad choices and judgement I feel are in direct contradiction to what a captain should (and is required by law) to be. But, everyone sees things through their lenses, and I'm not discrediting your opinion as I can see your point.
I think we all agree him leaving the ship first was a total douchebag move though lol
It's both absolutely amazing and inspiring to see your work. I geniunely enjoy your content a lot, I love that you're committed to quality and actually care about the content you put out and us, the viewers. I'm sincerely grateful to you for all the things you put out, I appreciate it a lot. I'm thankful for it, I truly am.
Your content just not only entertains me but it also inspires me a lot; as I'm a editor and motion graphics designer - But your content just helps me in general with a lot of things. How to write, how to edit, how to research, how to all and so on.. you get the idea.
Your stuff is just very inspiring for me, both in terms of skills and in terms of being a good and rational person. You're lovely. I wish you, and everyone you care about, all the well wishes and good intentions.
Please keep making stuff for as long you can, and for as long you want.
Love ya!
Wow; this entire video is super great to just get more in depth info on the topic, how you researched and the like; but WOW-- I'm just really, really impressed and scared of the compositing in your video files. 40+ min is so dang much, and there really is so much that goes into making even the simplest animations and such, and this was a great peek behind the curtain. I didn't know premiere files could *look* like that, it's insane 😂 Thanks for sharing!
I like how Martin the Magician’s true act in the end was disappearing from the face of the earth.
Atleast he was human enough to let one of the actors out of the box.
Oh boy, that last part about the rendering, I felt that. You gotta render repeatedly as you edit, Premiere will only attempt to render unrendered frames, so it's best to render whenever you've completed an individual scene or a particularly hard shot or whatever. If you get it rendered earlier, you won't be smacked with a massive list of errors and Premiere won't freak out about it.
XQC missing the text on the screen to note it wasn't a real image is par for the course. lol - Literally... he would. Also hilarious, since that is who's image popped in my head, the moment you said "some people".
a historian is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to
So do wizards
He makes us wait. He knows the value of delayed gratification. He makes us wait so when the notification comes...we do it simultaneously
“All right, then. Keep your secrets.”
Late, always late. Gosh what an ALPHAMALE 🥵🥵
I love the quality& of you work, love the effects and that you construct everything, big love and thank you for the team!
I appreciate these videos as much as your main content, thanks for making it!
The behind the scenes stuff in your Q&A vids are just as entertaining to watch as the actual production 😃👍
I hope your channel advertisers understand the genius and effort you put into these plugs.
