World’s Worst Disasters at Sea | Desperate Hours | Free Documentary

Desperate Hours - Disasters at Sea | Disaster Documentary Desperate Hours - Geological Disasters: This episode of Desperate Hours is all about disasters at sea. The long saga of death and misadventure at sea is as much a record of human folly as it is of nature’s fury. When you start charting a course through the choppy seas of maritime disasters, the effect can be quite sobering. From the loss of the Titanic, a supposedly unsinkable luxury liner; to a routine ferry trip in South Korea that ended with the heart-breaking loss of so many young lives. Or how about the Exxon Valdez oil spoil, which pumped millions of gallons of crude oil into Prince William Sound, Alaska, one of the last pristine environments on earth? Then there is the return of piracy to the high seas – not as a masquerade, but as a clear and present danger. That old saying “worse things happen at sea”? Well, it turns out, they really do. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬τ
