Awesome. Anyone finding this entertaining, may I recommend Drachinifel’s The Russian 2nd Pacific squadron - voyage of the Damned.
“The Kamchatka announced it was sinking, which lead to much rejoicing amongst the fleet.”

- _0ffh 5y agoYeah, that one's much better! Also more historically accurate it seems, as many of the claims in the article seem to be of a rather dubious origin and may be little more than yarn. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IceFeFsS_GY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IceFeFsS_GY

- sq_ 5y agoDrachinifel's content is amazing. In particular, I love his video on the sinking of HMS Hood [0], his videos on Jutland [1], and his way of working some humor into what he does as with the Kamchatka and the title on his video about surviving the sinking of a ship [2]. Have learned a ton from his channel and had a great time doing it!
