Can you imagine what a beautiful world we would live in if only washington dc was nuked to death in august 1945

Most of the comments here mention divers, I would have expected thus to be focused on fishing. When I lived on the gulf coasts there were quite a few sunken ships marked as common fishing spots.

Th SS United States going into the Gulf of Mexico.

It would be funny if Mexico started calling it "el arrecife del imperio moribundo"

"The Reef of a Dying Empire"

Would a metall ship, that is artificially erroded a a solar driven scarficial annode, count as geo-engineering, when the resulting algea bloom fell out over a dead spot of the ocean?

Why are we sinking huge amounts of already processed resources... yes theres cost but, thats a lot of steel, copper, brass who knows what else. So crazy and ridiculous to me

Extracting it seems to be pretty nasty business

Probably interesting, but unwatchable with ads every two sentences.

Complaining about ads is generally discouraged here because it doesn't add anything. Buy YouTube Premium if you don't want to see ads, it's pretty simple.

This is a very high quality documentary and it's not like running YouTube is free either so exactly what are you expecting?

A bittersweet end. The SS United States was a magnificent-looking ship.

Hasn't this been the plan for years now?

Only since 2024, and the date is now approaching so that gives it renewed interest in the news media.
