Jr: Let's watch this, ok
Yamikumo: Watch what?
Jr: This
The video starts with the Internet Historian.
[Music]
the costa concordia
ship of dreams it's been
eight years
Bakuhoe: What the hell is this Freak
Huey: IT'S THE INTERNET HISTORIAN
i can still smell the buffets from their
five restaurants
the casino and three-story theater
had hardly been used ah
the gym the day spa
the sheets in her 1500 luxurious cabins
hadn't even been slept in costa
concordia cost
570 million dollars to build
and you could tell you could really tell
Everyone was impressed of how the Costa Concordia looked, even Ochako faint, again.
Jr: God dammit
The video then shows the ship's name, "The Costa Concordia."
i remember it like it was just a few
years ago
we had left cividavecchia a port in rome
and we were making our way to savona it
was day two of our seven day journey
but that ship i she was
cursed (Oh my God)
Jr:
Everyone:...
Jr: Couldn't resist
Saitama: Cursed?
when she premiered
the traditional bottle of champagne
bounced right off the side
instead of smashing
Selkie and Serius/Internet Historian: A bad Omen
Toru: How?
but i'm
not the superstitious type
nothing could go wrong on friday the
13th
of january 2012 on the 100th year
anniversary of the titanic
on a ship that's also only safety rated
for two compartment flooding
Mahoro: This ship's gonna sink?!
especially not when you have a five-star
max level captain
like francisco scattina a man who
mysteriously rose from head of security
to the position of captain within just a
couple of years
Eri: That's Bizarre
he knows exactly what to do in case of
an emergency
Kota: Sure...
for example when he caused this
emergency in 2008
when he crashed into a port in sicily
Hisashi:...I'm pretty sure he-
and in 2010 in vernon germany
when he was steering a different ship
and came into port too fast and caused
another collision
Saitama: Wow, this Captain sucks
[Music]
i've got a good feeling about this so
let's set the scene
it's a beautiful evening people are
having fun on the slides
drinks at the bar antonio magnotta is
playing piano at the restaurant
martin the magician is setting up for
his show
and the ship is setting up for a little
detour it's called a sail by salute
basically you get real close to the
shore and honk the horn
the locals hate it but the customers
love it and it's a tradition
Selkie: I remember my Dad doing that when he used to be in the Navy
scotino the captain comes into the
dining hall with the lady
dominica morton remember this face
because you'll be seeing a lot of it
later scitino eats his dinner with her
and socializes for a little while
then he dominica and the maitre d finish
up and excuse themselves
they're heading to the bridge it's time
for that sail by salute this time
they're going to get closer than ever
just 1500 feet
from the island of gilio and how are
they going to determine this distance
well of course the captain is going to
eyeball it apparently it's not an
uncommon thing to do
scitino turns to the fella steering his
helmsman
jacob ruslieben
first interesting tidbit costa crochet
has hired jacob from indonesia
at a rock bottom price and he's a bit of
a newbie to the job
in fact his profession hitherto a
painter
and a cleaner it's his first time
steering a massive ship
and he's very excited at least we think
he is
it's hard to tell because he doesn't
speak english or italian very well at
all
Katsuma: Well, that's a problem
Off to a good start the second in
command orders the helmsman to
290.
Some People: What
Now don't be confused by these
numbers they're just the degrees on a
compass
Some People: Oh
At the same time the captain whips out
his cell phone and calls former captain
mario palumbo who lives on the island
they chat about the safe distance to
jillio's shores
it's all very casual anyway mario says
that the safe distance is between 0.3
and 0.4 miles from shore the captain
is going all in
One For All: What
This is not his first
sail by salute
so he's confident in what he's doing
Daigoro:
we're going closer than we've ever
been before the captain's eyeballing it
again
hmm new heading of 300 he tells the
helmsman
downstairs martin is about to cut his
assistant in half
and of course that means that there's
already a lady inside this box
she's waiting for the q and then she'll
poke her legs out
the captain is giving more orders
pulling gently to 310
increase speed to 16 knots going this
fast
is going to be a fatal error but before
we talk about that
let's talk about another big problem
language barrier
because at this point the captain says
three two five
but the helmsman relays three fifteen so
the first officer intervenes
and he goes no no no three three five
which is also wrong
and then the captain clarifies no three
two five
the helmsman confirms three two five
their poor communication has them moving
at a much
wider angle than they think they are
however
the captain should and would know this
except
for the next problem complacency about
procedure
the standard procedure of a ship this
large is for the third officer to give
exact positional coordinates every time
the captain gives a new directional
order
but they're not doing that 3 30 he says
the helmsman relays 3 30. the ship
reaches 16 knots
the captain then turns to the second
officer and instructs him to go to the
left wing
that's these things here and they
basically exist so you can get a better
view over the whole vessel
a few seconds pass and then
the mood starts to turn scitino notices
white foam of waves breaking against the
rocks
directly in front of him in the distance
the costa concordia right now is almost
700 meters closer to the rocks than it
should be
without deviation there is going to be a
direct
collision oh [ __ ] scotino immediately
commands the ship to start turning away
335 not enough the captain shouts
340. the captain yells 350.
now remember how i said that
accelerating to 16 knots was a fatal
error
well that's because it's made this ship
incapable of such a drastic turn
what they've got is understood here's an
example
the front end is not working you're
turning turning turning and you're just
going straight you want to go over here
but you're going to end up over here
so despite the order of 350 right now
the bow is still only pointing at
327 not nearly enough to miss the rock
and oh no it's about to get worse that
language barrier again
in these critical moments where every
second counts the helsmann
wrongly relays 340. the captain snaps
back
350 starboard or we end up on the rocks
the third officer goes to assist the
helmsman
now don't get confused by the orders
from here we're changing over to rudder
instructions
the captain yells starboard 10 starboard
20
and still it's not enough hard to starve
it that means as hard as it'll go
but at this point even if they clear
these rocks
they need to get the rest of the ship to
swing around it
so the captain yells midship which
centers the rubber
the bow is now less than 150 meters from
skull rock
poor 10 but the helmsman only gets to
4-5 before another order is given two
seconds later
to port 20 they might just avoid
disaster here maybe
but then oh no one more time the
helmsman [ __ ] up at the
worst possible moment the helmsman
goes to starboard instead of port
undoing the swing
Bakuhoe: DUMBASS
Eight seconds later he
realizes the error and corrects but it's
too late he has just turned a probable
near-miss
into a sure hit all they can do now is
hold on as the bow of the ship
narrowly passes by the rocks hard to
port
the second officer yells we're gonna hit
[Music]
collision
The Concordia hits the underwater rock at 9:45 P.M.
Everyone was mad on how both the Captain's Decision and one Crewmember screwed everything up.
the ship hits rocks on the port side
a 53 meter gash opens up in the hull
and thousands of tons of water begin
pouring in
a loud scraping and bang is heard by all
passengers
at the helm is panic rumblings in the
dining room
martin awkwardly pauses his act as he's
helping his assistant into the box
meanwhile the lady inside is trapped
terrified there's confusion across the
ship
all of the crew off shift come back on
duty or officers run to the bridge
technical crews run down to the lower
decks to assess damage
on connection with the rocks they lose
propulsion and slow to 8.3 knots
and they are now adrift
Eri: Already?!
Close the
watertight doors at stern
enormous volumes of water are pouring in
so much so that within
29 seconds of collision all six engines
stop
working through flooding 22 seconds
later a blackout happens
lights electrics the water pumps too
everything
the captain orders the helmsman hard
starboard this is the
final position of the rudder before
power to that too
is lost the costa concordia now without
power
is drifting starboard plunged into
absolute darkness
a quick breakdown of the flooding when
the concordia struck land
a tour opens three water tight
compartments
at first compartment five which filled
very rapidly
then six more slowly or shortly after
then 7 8 3
modern ships are built to withstand two
compartment breeches
these compartments especially though are
a problem because they contain the
engines
and the electrics these main generators
give power to the whole
ship from propulsion motors to rudder to
hotel functions pretty much
everything when they went out the ship
was a functionless
sinking cage
Olley: Water and Electricity is always bad, and they never thought to make the Electrics Waterproof
Nezu: If the electrics are still running when the ship goes down, it can cause some problems, but I get what you're saying
A few seconds later the
emergency batteries for internal
lighting and communications kick off
when the lights come back on martin has
vanished
he's ditched the stage and it caused a
huge panic in the theater as passengers
are trying to flee to their cabins and
to muster stations
people already in their cabins come out
and start putting on life vests
staff rally and try to calm everyone
down everything is fine
there's no need for this please return
to your cabins
Mahoro: EVERYTHING IS NOT FINE
The emergency generator starts
all of the watertight doors close except
for door 12
which is jammed the captain calls pilot
the chief engineer
as the ship begins to list on the port
side there's water coming in
yes there's water but where the engine
room
but a lot of water yes there's water you
can't go down
let's go down the other side in a moment
we'll start the pumps i'll let you know
in the theater the whole magic box
apparatus slides right off the stage
and falls into the crowd further
increasing panic
on the bridge an announcement is being
prepared they are going to lie
to prevent a panic let's just say we
have a blackout
Everyone: WHAT
Mineta: BUT THE SHIP IS SINKING. DON'T LIE ABOUT THAT
The deputy chief engineer enters the
engine control room
he confirms to the bridge that at least
compartments five six
and seven are flooded announcements are
made
to inform you that due to an electrical
fault which is currently under control
we're currently in a blackout our
technicians are working to resolve the
situation
and will inform you of developments as
they occur thank you for your attention
coincidentally at the same time in the
restaurant they're playing my heart will
go on
and it's very much not helping the
situation
Olley: That Damn Overused Song!
The captain calls the costa
crisis unit
roberto ferrari he tells the crisis unit
that they've hit a rock
that they're assessing damages and that
they are also in a blackout
the crisis office says to reverse the
ship up onto shore
well how are you going to do that you
don't have power to the rudder let alone
the engine you know hoist the sails
anyway
around this time the wind direction
creates a starboard list
and the ship begins to turn anyway
drifting right back towards the shore
which is a very good thing because you
want the ship to end up as close to
shore as possible
a panicked passenger senses that
something is off
this isn't like any electrical problem
that she's ever seen plus
there was a massive crashing noise and
now the ship is tilting
so she contacts her daughter in italy
the daughter
then calls the police and the police
call the harbour master
while that goes on a conversation
between pylon and ambrosio
the diesel is not starting the captain
asked the engine room
but where have we made contact thinking
that the incoming water can be reduced
captain here everything is lost the
electrical panel
everything they're saying at this point
that the ship
is going down the captain calls roberto
ferrarini again
uh actually two compartments have been
flooded but don't worry the ship's
stability isn't in danger
wrong passengers begin going to muster
stations on their own initiative
the cruise director says we have a lot
of people at muster stations that i do
not want to fall overboard do we make an
announcement to tell them to go to the
lounges
Everyone: NO
bozo says i think that's best the
harbour master from livorno
calls the ship the captain tells them
that we we just have a blackout
how long has this blackout been going on
about 20 minutes
have you asked passengers to put on like
this it's just a blackout
i gotta go the harbour master is
suspicious he says to his superiors that
he thinks something more is going on
he calls the patrol boat to the area and
asks them to look at the ship
another problem the fan on the emergency
diesel generator isn't working properly
Daigoro: Well...shit
pilon manually has to turn the thing on
and off with a screwdriver
so that it doesn't overheat and cause a
fire the captain is on the phone to the
lower decks
asking pointless questions like is it
still flooded
yes yes it is the captain is essentially
in denial of the situation
the harbour master calls again finally
he says
the ship is taking on water through an
opening in the left side and the ship is
listing
he qualifies with no one dead or injured
the harbour master asks if he needs help
just a tug boat when in reality they
need a full
rescue with three compartments plugged
the captain finally realizes that things
are really bad
and they are not going to improve
the coast guard orders every available
ship to the scene
meanwhile up with the passengers the
cruise director's assistant says
everything's under control please return
to your cabins or hang about in the
lounges no problem
she said this despite knowing it was
wrong and that it further endangered
lives
Everyone sighs in disappointment of how they were doing as they continued to endangered the lives of the people onboard.
most passengers at this point though
aren't listening to this nonsense
and they're busy figuring out how to
abandon ship
local television has already picked up
the story and they begin broadcasting
live radio feed from the bridge
captain the passengers are going on
board the boats
okay let them go to shore so then
general emergency
wait let me talk to ferrorini
we risk the emergency generators that do
not have cooling
it has cooling problems 100 degrees the
cooling fan has stopped
pilon calls the bridge and tells the
safety officer they need to evacuate
the safety officer relays this to the
captain but after no response
he orders the engine room to evacuate on
his own the captain says
no stay we'll leave it
so what do we do general emergency
the captain tells ferrari that he's
abandoning ship abandon ship
another announcement is made ladies and
gentlemen your attention
the lavorno coast please calls again the
captain declares distress
the coast guard officially calls for
rescue operations they contact pietro
melanie the helicopter base commander
who then calls in every available pilot
as he rushes down to the help of the
base
pylon shuts down the emergency generator
for the final time
the first rescue vessel arrives by this
point the lifeboats are already going
luckily the ship is very close to shore
oh
perhaps too close to shore
Deku: Oh no
Louie: They still beached it, though
The ship
forcefully runs aground
creating an uneven center of gravity and
it begins
heavily listing starboard the captain
issues a general emergency on board
the announcement to abandon ship is
finally called an alarms ring out
and with that comes panic and now that
they're listing
with many of the lifeboats too awkwardly
positioned to enter the water
there aren't enough readily available
and they have to start going back and
forth to the shore
picking people up and dropping them off
the patrol boats report to the lavorno
harbour master that the ship has run
aground and is lifting heavily
so the harbour master asks the captain
about and the cabin says no
no no the ship is still floating oh in
fact we're trying to maneuver it onto
the shore
they know he's lying
the captain then says to bottom out the
starboard anchor
so they drop out the anchors but let out
too much chain
effectively rendering them useless the
deputy mayor of gileo
mario pellegrini and tobacco shop owner
giovanni rossi
arrive at the harbour they watch the
scene unfold as the first of the
lifeboats arrive on shore the deputy
mayor takes the initiative and races to
board one of the lifeboats
returning to the ship and starts trying
to find someone in charge
he gives up and starts helping passers
scottino tells everyone to leave and
take radios
but not before changing out of his
uniform and into a nice suit
priorities dimitri costellis and sylvia
caronica
leave with him the maitre d and support
him both get out of there
by this point approximately 300 people
are still
on the ship melee reaches the helicopter
base the first helicopter
a slow-moving augusta bell was already
rising from the tarmac for the hour-long
flight south
bozio is the last crew member left on
the bridge coordinating evacuation
he then leaves to help passengers board
lifeboats the bridge
is now abandoned and then the ship's
black box stops working
apparently there are technical problems
with it that means from here
things are going to get a little foggy
in detail a while later rescue
helicopters arrive
but they're struggling to find the ship
because they're expecting it to still be
well above water
passengers are scaling down the port
side by ladder as lifeboats return to
pick them up
[Music]
a second helicopter a faster model sets
off
the ship stops healing and comes to a
final resting place
now the coast guard calls the captain
because he's just learnt
that the captain has abandoned ship the
captain claims
uh uh no actually i slipped and i fell
into one of the light boats oh
i'm a clutch but now that i'm on board i
may as well head back to shore
defalco tells the captain to get the
[ __ ]
back on board and the captain kind of
acts confused
and then effectively refuses so the
captain makes it to shore
Tomura: Coward
Selkie: He broke the Number 1 Rule, Never Abandoned Ship as the Captain
From here we only have mainstream news
reports to rely on so it's not going to
be super accurate
but they say that gilu's police chief
then finds 110 survivors on the rocks at
point gabionara
and among them is the captain it's not
known whether the captain helped
anyone while he was there and in fact
the police chief claimed that he just
sat on the rocks and watched other
people do the rescuing
a while later a rescue boat picks up the
captain and takes him to the harbour he
speaks to the police
he then finds the ship's onboard
chaplain father rafael molina
and cry to him for about 15 minutes then
he goes to the harbour master's office
to receive probably the
biggest dressing down of his entire life
port authorities asked the taxi driver
to take the captain back to his hotel
the captain takes the 30 second cab ride
to the bahamas hotel
according to the cabbie he was beaten
like a dog he was cold and afraid
he only asked me where he could buy a
pair of fresh socks
but then he perked right up again and
gave an interview to a news crew
he told them that he was the last to
leave the captain is usually the last to
abandon ship
what happened captain we were the last
to leave the ship
all they said they rescue a search for
people on the ship
on sunday morning a south korean couple
is found in their cabin
safe but shivering they had slept
through the crash
and woke up unable to exit their cabin
the last survivor
manrico gianpandroni was found with a
broken leg
he was the cabin service director
in the end 32 people died the final body
wasn't discovered until nearly
three years later a crew member russell
rubello
and it's believed that he died a hero
helping passengers off the ship
the costa concordia was the largest
cruise ship disaster
since the titanic
and then there's the ship this is what
happens to a 110
thousand ton cruise line when it's left
half rolled over
in the ocean
[Music]
[Music]
but this isn't the end it's just the
halfway point
what most people know is that the costa
concordia had crashed
many dead and that the captain abandoned
shipped like a coward
but there's a whole veritable spaghetti
of details to untangle
let's dive in there they are
the deets
[Music]
blue box time the costa concordia was
more than just a floating resort
there's a mall a casino
this iron chest was full of safes and
cash registers
and expensive fittings and there were
plenty of gamers
prepared to sneak by authorities and try
their luck
in the hot zone within days
police divers reported that valuable
items once seen lying around the ship
were now missing high-end election
expensive furniture
dining sets cash from the casino cash
registers
jewelry and display cabinets safes
japanese woodblock prints by famous 18th
century artists
as well as the iconic bell which hung
from the bridge of the ship
it was never found
Hound Dog/Internet Historian: Who steals a big fuck-off bell
Even the server admins were getting
involved
four divers who were part of the company
contracted to re-float the concordia
were spotted on cctv
sneaking out to the ship a patrol boat
was dispatched and the men were caught
inside the fancy suites with rucksacks
full of stolen goods
the four men are charged with stealing
and thieving and pension later on
stolen as well as legitimate items found
their way to amazon and ebay
chips from the casino postcards and
cabin access cards became highly sought
after souvenirs
it even has a watermark some australian
guy even made a listing for the ship
itself
advertising it as buyer to collect and
although there were plenty of bidders
ebay pulled the plug
[Music]
i know you want to see scitino go to
jail and we'll get to that but first
we have to talk about someone else
dominica
morton there was speculation that she
was on the bridge
that evening because she was the
captain's
mistress tense
media speculation reports that her
presence distracted the captain
they both denied their love for yields
and maintained that they were
just friends although she did later
admit to the media that she found him
handsome and how could you not
you so [ __ ] precious when you
smile but she says there was no romantic
link between them some people would like
to believe
they want to know i have something with
him it's more interesting it's like you
know
some spicy in the story mrs morton also
loved the spotlight however everyone oh
no
and took several interviews but as the
pressure mounted upon her
she began making ominous threats to
skatina
saying he must confess and that you have
but
one week to come clean but things from
here get weird spicy
so morton is a bit of a wild card
in a subsequent interview she claimed a
helicopter came to the ship
well before the other rescue craft to
take away
a package huh and what was that package
drugs apparently
so rumors began that the ship was
running narcotics for the mafia
and not without cause a number of cruise
ships even recently have been caught
trafficking drugs
as an aside scotino was tested for drugs
immediately after the crash
he tested negative for drugs in his
system but trace amounts of cocaine were
found in a house animal makes it
smoother
and less dry nonetheless the concordia
was searched and no drugs were
reportedly ever found
how did we get here oh right a
helicopter
simultan commented on it again the next
day and said
actually that helicopter was just for
the captain as a means of evacuation
from the ship
okay wait so she expected to get some
sort of first class rescue while
everyone else was still stuck on the
ship
wait how did we get here oh right sex
with the captain
divers were quick to head to the
captain's cabin where they found mrs
morton's
lingerie and other articles of clothing
as well as a makeup bag
the jig was up but they continued
denying it
samorton mostly faded from international
attention until she was told to appear
before the court
to present witness testimony
the judge pressed her to be truthful
about their relationship or she would be
held in contempt either tell me the
truth
or shut up so finally she admitted it
see yes i had a sentimental relationship
with the captain
stop but now stop asking about my
private life
she was indeed the captain's lover
what is some troubler nation what's it
not cheating i'm this wife with sea or
ten oh my god
she and scottino had been having an
affair for several weeks
she also said that on the night she
boarded she didn't have a ticket
and didn't need to pay because nobody
questions you when you're the captain's
lover
[Music]
naturally she gave another confusing
interview after leaving court
i want to say that today is the second
time i die because the first time i die
in the night of the crush
with my psychological brain and problems
and today i died the second time because
of course people find out something that
i
tried to hide subsequent to the trial
she used her fame in maldova
to become a political activist often
appearing on television and radio and in
articles covering protests
accompanied by pictures of her being
arrested by police foreign
it was some stuff about victims violence
women's rights
and interestingly part of a push to
block the sale of shares of meldova's
train network
to russia other than that i don't really
know what she's been up to let me just
check on no god not again
several civil suits were quickly lodged
against costa crochet
and their parent company carnival
cruises immediately saw a share drop of
23 per cent
passengers sought compensation for their
damaged mental health lost belongings
and
loved ones either they allowed him to
divert from his
course or they didn't know where their
billion-dollar ship
was within a few days facing financial
and media pressure
the ceo attempted to join the bandwagon
against the captain and the crew
that was not the ordinary route that the
ship
was taking at the time
and and was not only taking him by the
time that the [ __ ]
junior claiming that the ship was not
approved to deviate from the route but
that wasn't true
approval isn't required if the ship is
deviating by less than 15 miles or that
it was against company rules
also untrue because investigators found
that they didn't have any rules about
deviating route
and they tacitly encouraged sail by
salutes now
in response to the civil suits costa
crucia offered passengers 11 000 euros
each as compensation
that's kind of small eleven thousand
euros
about fourteen thousand dollars is the
minimum compensation
under international law when a ship is
abandoned this was to reimburse them for
their tickets
as well as any costs they accrued and
having to unexpectedly travel home
early and that was supposed to release
them from
everything and anything that has to do
with this accident
i cannot ask for more than this a lot of
passengers
understandably were not too happy with
this deal and they refused to take the
money
we think the offer is an insult for what
these poor passengers went through
we think that the compensation being
offered is not commensurate
here
[Music]
compensation being offered is not
commensurate later
costa crucia would lodge a plea deal
with the tuscany court to pay a 1
million euro fine to avoid a criminal
trial
the judge agrees costa crucia is now off
the hook
for all criminal liability for the whole
thing they've washed their hands of the
incident
and flex the residual droplets of
responsibility onto the faces
of six staff members passengers and
relatives of the dead are livid that the
company has been able to avoid criminal
responsibility offered is not
commensurate
civil suits against the company continue
by the way
the residents of the island of gealio
also banded together and sought damages
they didn't get much
eventually passengers who refused the
initial compensation of 11 000
joined civil parties against scotino in
his trial in 2015.
they were awarded 30 000 euros each
other cases especially those involving
lost relatives
are settled for undisclosed amounts
new york attorney peter renee traveled
to budapest to represent
six real survivors of the disaster at
renee and rene we
personally work on every case and we'll
work harder than anyone to get you the
most money possible in the shortest
amount of time
and while on the job a seventh case
cropped up via email
an elderly woman a loner said help me mr
ronai
for i have lost my daughter eva and my
five-year-old granddaughter roxanna
so mr renai agreed to speak with her
however
there were some inconsistencies in her
story
neither eva nor oxana were on the
passenger list
odd but koster is known for having
stowaways
catch a bit still mr renai was
suspicious
they wouldn't cheaty old petey would
they
renae inquired further about why she was
on board especially without a ticket
elona said well i don't know but you
should ask her boyfriend
salt horvath he'll know all the details
i'm up all night i'm going crazy he said
but mr and i was still
suspicious because then she asked
how much money do you think this is
worth
this is a huge red flag petey in 20
years of doing this you've never had
anyone ask about money
why now so mr ronai hired an
investigator
and sent photos around off the missing
girl the next day
the phone rang it was the boyfriend
again
ah look there's been a bit of a
misunderstanding and the child isn't
missing at all
and then he claimed he was confused
because he had done too many drugs the
night before
oh okay can i speak to the daughter then
at first he was refused so renee said
that he'd have to file a missing
person's report to the police if he
couldn't
the boyfriend relented that night renee
met with zolt
and brought the police with him he
speaks to the granddaughter and asks her
if she's seen mum
yeah i saw her today oh really yeah we
went to the park today and we went on
the swings oh no
the jig was up so the mum walks into the
room sheepishly
it's a miracle and the story changed
again okay i'm not dead but i did injure
my leg when i jumped from the ship
and then i immediately flew back to
budapest although don't worry about
checking my leg because there are no
visible marks or injuries
Recovery Girl: Like we're gonna fall for a fake injury
uh oh pd i'm beginning to think they
weren't even on the boat
also it turns out this lady isn't her
mom it's just a neighbor
eventually renee managed to make the
bear confess and then they said
hey we haven't done anything wrong we
haven't taken any money
and in the end it looks like there'll be
no criminal punishment for the scam
because hungary a former communist
country has no laws against insurance
fraud on the books
the law firm that never sleeps
oh that's a bad idea that's a very bad
[Applause]
idea
[Music]
mario would you teach me some italian oh
of course get back on board for [ __ ]
sake
okay thanks gregorio defalco
the naval officer who shouted at scitino
to vada abordo
caso became a bit of a national hero
overnight in italy
he like the rest of the world expected
scottino to go
down with the ship
[Music]
and when the captain chickened out
defelko was there to admonish him
and when he stopped answering the radio
he called him on his cell phone to
continue putting him on blast
when the captain first reported just a
blackout defalco didn't believe the
story
and immediately began preparing a rescue
effort which likely saved several lives
his actions were applauded by most
italians who were tired of their public
servants being corrupt and avoiding
responsibility
accordingly shirts sporting vada aboardo
caso were being printed by the end of
the week
others setting it as their phone's
ringtone but then
in september 2014 without warning
defalco was transferred to an admin role
in the coast guard
hear what i said had been demoted
defelka said that he had been passed up
for promotion
that he had also not been told which
admin office he was even being
transferred to
and that it all effectively cancelled
ten years of his career
defalco was tris furiosa
and it was public speculation that it
was owing to bad blood between himself
and admiral delano his former boss
his status among the public overshadowed
his superior in many ways
on the other hand his boss said ah no
it's part of a normal career progression
for naval officers and that he must show
more maturity
and professionalism to advance his
career now it's hard to know what's true
in office politics
so let's leave that alone and anyway in
2018
defalco said buenos noches yelata to the
italian navy to
become a politician in march that year
he was elected to the italian senate
serving as a member for livorno he still
serves there today
the day after the disaster scotino was
taken into custody by police
and underwent questioning however it was
clear that this would not be a
straightforward investigation
so the judge released him under house
arrest at his home in sorrento
a town in nepali by july of that year
the house arrest was relaxed and he was
allowed within this
general area while under house arrest he
wrote a book
with this journalist from rye magazine i
have no idea what it says i don't speak
italian
but god damn he must have some kind of
charisma going on
because there's been a lot of
speculation in the press that he had an
affair with her
as well he can't keep getting away with
that hold on i got it okay
not content with abandoning his ship
this dude is determined to abandon his
wife as well
so scitino and five others are facing
criminal charges
straight away everyone lodges a plea
bargain with the court and all of those
plea bargains
are accepted except for scotinos
and the condition of everyone's reduced
sentences are that they must provide
witness testimony against scottino he
touched me
cyril jacob and sylvia were all given
suspended sentences
roberto and manrico are able to opt for
community service or house arrest
not a bad deal a good deal good deal
and that meant that scottino was now all
on his own
cyro the first officer was the first to
give his testimony
on the witness stand he claimed that
scottino was distracted by his mistress
and other guests on the bridge
that there was confusion over who was in
command
then it was jacob's turn and he said la
mao xd
because he didn't actually bother with
his testimony or his reduced sentence he
just fled the country
it took authorities 12 months to
eventually track him down on the
outskirts of jakarta
and when they said we still want that
witness testimony
he just scarf again and he hasn't been
found since
Monoma:
After that ferrorini gave his testimony
then sir
oh look we don't have time to relitigate
the whole trial so let's just go
straight to the verdict guilty
was found guilty of multiple
manslaughter causing a shipwreck
abandoning ship
and lying to authorities he is sentenced
to 16 years
and one month in prison
[Music]
but wait there's still the appeals the
appeals trial begins
and the verdict on the appeal
surprise rejected so scotino's lawyers
appealed again
and the verdict on the final appeal
catino made multiple attempts to secure
a plea deal but was denied by the
prosecution each time
the prosecution called for scottino to
be sentenced to 26 years in prison
calling the incident a titanic affair oh
okay i see what you did there sketino
was not present his lawyer stated that
he was waiting outside of the jail
for the ruling so that if his plea was
rejected he could immediately start
serving his sentence
and with that five years and four months
after the disaster
he was finally in a cell
Everyone was now in relief.
he said i will not be making any
[Music]
comments
the salvage operation was enormous it
took over two years and cost an
estimated
1.2 billion dollars beginning in early
2012
they first spent two months pumping fuel
from the ship's tanks
at the same time they had to pump
seawater in so that the balance wasn't
affected and the ship didn't slide
around
in early 2013 a platform was built under
the ship to prevent it from falling
further
sponsons were then attached to the sides
of the ship and cables attached to the
underwater platform
the sponsors were then dragged
underwater and opened up to allow the
ocean to fill in
the ship could then roll over properly
by late 2013 the ship was upright once
more
[Applause]
the sponsons were then attached to the
side of the ship to help keep it
balanced
it now rested partially above water and
crews could walk around
safely by july 2014 the water was
removed from the sponsons
and compressed air was pumped in to lift
the ship
and she was ready to cruise again this
time to a port in genoa
it was a four-day towing journey to the
docks where a two-year process of
dismantling and recycling would begin
Nana: How sad, a Cruise Ship that lasted for a short time has par
that same weekend of the towing scottino
was busy
he was the guest of honor at a white
party on an island in the bay of naples
he appeared on the front page of a local
newspaper flanked by two of italy's most
eligible bachelorettes
[Music]
anyway so these are the things that i
remember
from the costa concordia
that's sweet maiden of
the sea and as for you little fella
The Internet Historian was pulling the Bell of the Costa Concordia.
Katsuma: H-HE STOLE THE BELL
Denki: HE EVEN JOKED ABOUT IT, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS STOLEN
[Music]
well it's time to return you
from whence you came
The Internet Historian threw the Bell of the Costa Concordia into the sea, back where it belongs.
[Music]

Jr: Any thoughts?
Mitsuki: How can an inconvenience Crew be so idiotic to cause those lives
Inko: Besides most of the Crew lying, except the ones that DID help, it's mostly the Captain and the Helmsman's fault for causing all of this
Me: Be honest, is "My Heart Will Go On" Overused? Yes!
Jr: I agree, STRONGLY
Me: And I hate it everytime I hear it, especially if a Ship sinks, also, sorry for lack of reactions from the peps
