Speaker 1 (00:00):
H h h h.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
H because a rooster voice out, how.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Long we've been stuck in this trap of pit hours.
I'm just sitting here in the mud, and I could
feel it switching between my toes.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
And I'm still wearing socks, so the mud is in
my socks.

Speaker 5 (01:04):
Else rancid swamp ass right now?

Speaker 6 (01:07):
I mean that goes without saying.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
I mean we always have that. It's Florida, but still
this is worse than normal. Why is this here?

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Why? Why would Felix do this? Is this? Is this
to punish us?

Speaker 5 (01:17):
A hatred in that heart?

Speaker 3 (01:18):
It seems that way, But I mean, is that a
generational thing? I'm saying looking at you with one eye.

Speaker 7 (01:23):
I guess doubt it could be an indoor swimming pool
and in shack in trailers.

Speaker 8 (01:30):
Vagrants yeah over here says vagrants die die, vagrant scum die.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
I just thought he didn't let that band.

Speaker 6 (01:38):
What vagrant hurt him at some point in his life.

Speaker 9 (01:41):
This is really personal, angry man, he would just do
this Sometimes you just make these. I'm not surprised, kind
of lost track how many he made.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Why didn't you unless there were pits out here for us?
If he knew there was a bunch of.

Speaker 6 (01:52):
Them, maybe some of them. Oh not this one though.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
We haven't been we haven't tried that yet.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Oh my god, that's probably we shouldrobably try yelling for.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Oh my god, what is.

Speaker 5 (02:12):
That someone walking around?

Speaker 4 (02:14):
They're they're sound tiny wrestling, rustling of leaves?

Speaker 9 (02:19):
Good?

Speaker 6 (02:19):
What's coming to finish us?

Speaker 4 (02:20):
All great? This is a tiger pitch. That was awesome.
Have it all night?

Speaker 6 (02:30):
All right? We don't what the has come from.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
There's rock window.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
I think it's knowing at you that Schmozy coming.

Speaker 6 (02:41):
Okays, no, no, no, it's okay.

Speaker 10 (02:44):
Baby still doesn't like it's okay, I'll come here all right, smooks.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
Some kind of the air feels Mu's better, even though
it's still very hot.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
She's probably so hungry.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
She's looking at us like she's kind of hungry?

Speaker 5 (02:56):
Is that why schmooche camp? But she's only after Schmoozy?

Speaker 6 (03:00):
But day, I mean she's a cat.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Looks time.

Speaker 8 (03:04):
She's lowering ropes for us.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
This cat can throw rocks and lower ropes right here.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
A hold on, let me try to get the first rope.
Here we go.

Speaker 4 (03:20):
Right off the top of here.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Did he build this thing too? Because that is not
a safe root.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
That looks like standard cat technology.

Speaker 6 (03:30):
You're in there, all right?

Speaker 10 (03:31):
All right, Well she really likes me, guys, and I'm
usually the one who feeds her in the morning, so
let me try first because she at least let me up.
All right, I got up, guys, just follow Up'm gonna
I'm distracted.

Speaker 6 (03:42):
Come here.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
That was angel already.

Speaker 6 (03:44):
Come here's all the time.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
You do it slippery?

Speaker 3 (03:50):
All right?

Speaker 9 (03:51):
Come on, come on, come on, I got you got
you go, get me a little back pack out.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Just getting here all right, okay, as you can tell,
but my body shape, I am very a depth at
climbing rope.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
Here we.

Speaker 6 (04:10):
Come on, help help help me.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
Oh my god, that was rough.

Speaker 5 (04:14):
Alright, my turn.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Here we go.

Speaker 4 (04:20):
I kicked it out.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
I'm sorry. That was just throw it up, throwing back up.
I'm sorry, back up, okay, okay, here you go. All right,
you have this bar rope. You can have this bar
okay one, two, three, frinzy boy, you do guys.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
I did not have this much trouble.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Get my hands.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Hey, alright, come back to reality.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Wo you might be concussed. Three concussions already.

Speaker 6 (04:52):
Gravity, that's a normal day for someone.

Speaker 5 (04:54):
Look around over there. Where were these ropes coming from?

Speaker 4 (04:56):
Why are they They look like like that nautical type
of ropes.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Like get in a very elaborate system, like it was
that piece of paper. Oh, that's notes, Felix's notes.

Speaker 6 (05:09):
That's kind of a very direct.

Speaker 8 (05:12):
Will work an event of emergency. So apparently he's been
trapped here several times. There you go, what a piece of.

Speaker 6 (05:18):
She would trap himself surprised, that's all it says.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Let's get out of here in case of emergency.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Don't worry.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
The cow show eventually right there, Let's traverse this area.
Let's see where the hell we're trapped at, because it
smells kind of funky and I want to know what
that is going on, at least that it feels like
there's an ocean breeze going on or something like that.

Speaker 4 (05:39):
Well, yeah, like.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Fish, yeah, the king fish.

Speaker 6 (05:50):
But she's off.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
And she looks she's falling, so there's fish around.

Speaker 8 (05:58):
Look, there's a song that's two naval yard.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
The ships and everything like warships.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Angela, he had a naval yard and armada.

Speaker 8 (06:10):
We can follow this foot trail, I guess, and get
out of here. By the way, thanks so much Murray
for having us keep our shoes in the fort because
this sucks.

Speaker 6 (06:19):
You could take them off. I didn't tell you not
to put them back on.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
When we Yeah, that was me.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
That was me.

Speaker 8 (06:24):
I thought maybe we were on a golf cart. We'd
be right back in that trap.

Speaker 6 (06:27):
Wait, where is the golf cart?

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Uh?

Speaker 6 (06:29):
You parked it? Where'd you park it?

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (06:31):
No, she loses her car everywhere we go.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
We never figure out what we've parked.

Speaker 5 (06:37):
All right, Well, I guess we're doing this one on foot?

Speaker 4 (06:40):
Yeah, like raw, do get my backpack.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
With all my tape?

Speaker 6 (06:45):
Where'd you get that?

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Well?

Speaker 2 (06:46):
I had this supplies. Now I never go anywhere without
my drugs.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
Wink wink.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
All right, so let's I guess let's take a little.

Speaker 7 (06:54):
Trip and see a lot of like you said, progressively
darker and.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Long.

Speaker 6 (07:00):
Is it just mes? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (07:01):
They're fun.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
Anymore?

Speaker 6 (07:05):
Is that like a marine marina bell a bell going?

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh man, those are cranes, dude, in the distance.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
That's cranes.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Those fall on people every day, dud the news a
cranton fell on somebody. So let's stay away from all
the trains. Let's scare me.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
On their own.

Speaker 8 (07:21):
Yeah, so if he had cranes, he's making massive ships, dude,
and Restrepham Bay.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
This is Restrepham Bay. It's got to be the way
this smells.

Speaker 6 (07:29):
He didn't recognize that.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Okay, so this is what time is.

Speaker 5 (07:33):
It doesn't even know.

Speaker 7 (07:34):
Do you have like a mastrolab or something.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Let me see look at the constellation.

Speaker 7 (07:38):
So it's maybe what like five thirty quarter to six.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Let's go with that.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Actually, yeah, it's gonna I'll take it. I don't care.
I'm I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Here in the Twilight dawn our.

Speaker 7 (07:53):
Yeah, Twilight vampires.

Speaker 8 (07:57):
There's still a heavy messed on Restripam Bay, heavy fall,
and it looks like everything is way smookier than it
ought to be, like.

Speaker 7 (08:04):
That, you know, like cartoon stink lines existed, but that
could be what's coming off.

Speaker 6 (08:08):
I think that's what it is. I can't even tell
how many ships are here. You can barely make out sails.

Speaker 5 (08:14):
I almost ran into painted all black, your hands out.

Speaker 6 (08:20):
I really don't remember anymore.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
I can hear wooden planks under us.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Oh wow, this is this is definitely getting creepier and
creeper the further we get in the fog. You're just
seeing them appear out of nowhere. That that would happen,
because I just nearly walked into a dygney over here.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
Yes, that's a day. I think you'd say a dangy,
but a whole ship.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
I don't know why you would paint ships all black.

Speaker 5 (08:39):
That makes no sense happening because it's type A f.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
It so cool.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
Maybe they're trying to make the ships invisible.

Speaker 6 (08:45):
It's the Batman ship.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Here's a paint bucket vant to black, the blackest of black.

Speaker 4 (08:51):
That's not good.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
This this reminds me a lot of another thing that happened.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
Have you all ever heard of the Philadelphia.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
Experiment, the Elton Johnson. No, that's Philadelphia Freedom. It's Philadelphia Freedom.

Speaker 6 (09:04):
That's about tennis.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
That's about tennis. This is about ship's disappearing. It's a
very different subject. Let's ride again, Let's try more time.
Philadelphia Freedom tennis. Yeah, Philadelphia experiment. Ship disappear. It's very soulden,
it's very sodden.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
So what about this Philadelphia experiment?

Speaker 4 (09:21):
We'll check it out. Kind of funky.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
So in October twenty eighth, nineteen forty three, a man
known as Carl m Adam, who went by the pseudonym
Carlos Miguel Alandi.

Speaker 6 (09:36):
Slink to it.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
He claimed that he saw at a Philadelphia Naval shipyard
a ship disappear.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
What it's nothing like like like David Copperfield.

Speaker 6 (09:49):
Like yes, he witnessed it being there and.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
Then yes, and then reappearing what but he closed eyes? Weirder?
Was that a long blink long time?

Speaker 3 (10:02):
That's how that works, right. Here's how it all started. First,
he contacted an author known as Morris K. Jessup, who
was the author of a book called The Case of
the UFO The Case for the UFOO.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
This is in nineteen forty three.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
Nineteen fifty six, nineteen and so this guy wrote a
book explaining the possibilities of how UFOs could use propulsion
that's not like ours, how they used different electromagnetic or
different forces of.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Physics, and like Bob Lazar from area fifty one.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
Right, And so this Carl m Allen or Carlos Ellende
and sent him a letter explaining that he really liked
his theories and that he himself was involved with the
work with Albert Einstein, and that Albert Einstein had actually
created the unified field theorem, which combined the theory of

(10:53):
relativity with electro magnetism which has not been proven, which
has not been proven anyway, And so the guy read
the letters and thought that was really interesting, kind of
dismissed it, and then he was contacted by Naval's Office
of Naval Research. Yes, Navy's Office of Naval Research contacted
the author, Jessup, and he said they received a package
that was a book in an envelope that just said

(11:15):
help Easter.

Speaker 6 (11:16):
Oh okay, And.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
So it was Jessup's book, but in it it had
all these different annotations that from three different people looked
like three different types of handwriting and three different types
of writing, going through and describing different parts of the
book and how it was right and explaining things how
it went further. And one of the voices, shall we
say in inc seemed to be of alien origin. It

(11:39):
was using non standard capitalization and punctuation. And other people said, oh,
it looks like it's alien.

Speaker 5 (11:44):
It was just Spanish. They didn't know.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
It's the fifties.

Speaker 6 (11:47):
It's the fifties readings.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
That of course got the Navy's attention because it was
pointing out different things in the book that said that
the alien said they got right, and other things they
said got wrong. That takes us back to what he
claims to have seen. Now, what carl or Carlos claims
to a scene as on October twenty eighth and nineteen
forty three, the USS Eldridge, a Canon class destroyer escort.

(12:12):
It was doing top secret experiments because right at the time,
we were not doing well in the naval side of
the war because there the German U boats were really
just wreckoned us. We were trying to figure out ways
that we could disguise our ships so the U boats
couldn't get us and we would uh do better when
it came to way the way they mined the areas
because the mines used magnetism, Okay, And so he claims

(12:36):
that he was standing there on another ship watching the Eldridge.
First beforehand he saw them loading up different types of
experimental equipment and these big, weird generators and putting those
on the ship.

Speaker 7 (12:46):
Like since just this huge it was the way Mogan
tons of cords craft work.

Speaker 10 (12:56):
Do we know it was experimental or was it just
like a big computer.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
At the time, Well, all computers were big at the time,
So basically, you want two megabytes, you need like four rooms.
So what he claims is that they activated the machines
and then the ship was covered in a greenish glow
and then it was scrillis but it was covered in
this glow and all of a sudden gone that the

(13:23):
entire ship disappeared. And this was like a massive ship, right,
This is a destroyer destroy class, not a small little dinghy.
Gone for a little while and then reappeared. Yes, you
need every time. Every time it reappeared. And there's other
people that say the ship was then seen at Norfolk
Naval Shipyard in Virginia before disappearing again and reappearing back

(13:49):
in Philadelphia teleportation, and there are some reports that it
actually showed up in Philadelphia before it disapp peered, so
that it was experiment in time travel and teleporter.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
Just going all over everywhere, just went everywhere.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Ben Hill the.

Speaker 4 (14:14):
Background, Yaco facts all day long.

Speaker 6 (14:16):
It was a weird outline of it waiting for it.

Speaker 8 (14:18):
I guess this would theorize that it was bending dimensions
and kind of uh metaphysically appearing in several places at
once and also teleporting. Well, that whole bunches at play here.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
That's why Carlos I just did. That's why Carlos says
that it was an experiment creating the unified field theorem
because that's never been proven, because there are issues with
electromagnetism and the special theory of relativity that just don't
match up, and that there's a lot of the theory

(14:50):
of relativity that have been proven, especially when it comes
to black hole observation stuff like that, but there's still
stuff that doesn't combine the two. And this author or
was claiming that these experiments were proving that Einstein did
complete the unified field theorem. And the thing that got
scary is that the claim was is that the boat
had a skeleton crew on it, I think about twenty

(15:11):
five people, and when it reappeared, things weren't that good
for them.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
They were actual skeletons.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
Worse skeleton would have actually been kind of good because
some of them just never came back.

Speaker 4 (15:26):
Some of them just immediately started having.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
Insane nausea and diarrhea and just body evacuations of every way.

Speaker 7 (15:34):
Well that's what you know when Nightcrawler teleports that Banff
is just himing his pants.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Yead in that diaper.

Speaker 4 (15:44):
Yeah, I love night to go through.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
But those were the ones that got off light because
some people claimed that they were teleported and had parts
of their body fused into the wall.

Speaker 5 (15:56):
I was gonna say, kind of like a like a
video game glitch.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
Where they were but their arm and one person from
their torso down was trapped in steel and therefore died
a agonizing and really weird death. We can all admit
some claim to have turned invisible and couldn't convince.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
Other people they were there.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
Overall, it seems like this was not the most successful
of experiments for the Navy to get into when it
comes to teleporting human beings on a.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Ship made of metal.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
Of course, the Navy has denied all of this, of course,
and what they say is that it was not about
invisibility or teleportation. Is that the giant machines that they
were adding to the ships were actually trying to figure
out a way to scramble the magnetic signatures of the
ship using a technique called degaussing, which can actually create

(16:52):
a interference pattern around it, so the magnetic pattern could
not be found, especially for the mines and the torpedoes.
That's good technology and so and another thing is that
there are actually inland canals that connect Norfolk to Virginia.
That makes the ship able to travel for like like
between the two and a few hours. But but but
I'm just saying maybe there was annotaining errors when it

(17:15):
came to ship logs or things like that point, and
so in the end we'll never completely know if it's
real or not. But if any of these ships here
have been tried to be used for an invisibility experiment,
we should probably get away unless we want to be
infused into the hull of a ship.

Speaker 5 (17:33):
Well, that explains the van to Black I'm gonna keep that.

Speaker 7 (17:36):
I always thought the Philadelphia experiment had to do with
hogies and grinders, and Tom, we.

Speaker 4 (17:40):
Could do that later. We could do that.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
I could make a bunch of hogies and grinders just
appear really quick.

Speaker 8 (17:44):
Let's have Tom Hanks come down with Denzel Washington, make
us some hogies and grinders.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
I got a guy, watch it, tom My.

Speaker 6 (17:53):
Man, you know I've done a little of this, little
of that. You never know steel late in the fo
do you guys see?

Speaker 10 (17:58):
Oh yeah, should we follow the light?

Speaker 5 (18:02):
I thought that was maybe the helicopter or something in
the distance.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
Sometimes the light is just in the tunnel, is just
a train coming out yet, so.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Let's be careful about Yeah, I saw that cartoon.

Speaker 6 (18:11):
Do we go into the light?

Speaker 9 (18:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (18:12):
No, Carolina, No Caroline going to the light, stay away
from the light, going to.

Speaker 6 (18:15):
The like Harlan, I'm gonna go to the lake.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
Yeah, let's go to the light and not get a ship,
like at least on top of that.

Speaker 6 (18:21):
Careful about that, all right? I hope there's a follow me.
It'll be fine. I'll first just follow behind.

Speaker 7 (18:26):
Me feet killing the but I might have dried up
really nicely into some fashionable adobe Jordan's look like crops.

Speaker 5 (18:34):
Oh maybe this is a warehouse.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Look, there's like a huge barn door that's open. What
are they called barn doors? Yeah? Yeah, And it looks
like there's a red door. Maybe that's an office or
something to that door.

Speaker 4 (18:47):
I just want to hell, I just want to paint
that thing black.

Speaker 6 (18:49):
There's a lot I mean, we've got the paint back there.

Speaker 8 (18:51):
There's a lot of different things in here. I think
we could maybe explore it. Looks like there's cargo and uh,
I don't know ship. I don't know about you guys,
but maybe we can find some shoes that would be not.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Let's take a quick.

Speaker 5 (19:04):
Break and see what kind of contraband we can.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
Right, I'll smoke something out of the shoe.

Speaker 8 (19:24):
Welcome back to Fort Fritz. We have been rummaging through
these boxes. There is salt dust and styrofunk peanuts everywhere,
but everywhere.

Speaker 4 (19:31):
You know what sultancy.

Speaker 8 (19:33):
I was able to find a pair of shoes for everyone.
These are the it looks like the Adidas trim Stars,
not unlike the steve Ze soup rieting.

Speaker 5 (19:40):
So everyone, try on your shoes.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
I didn't I did nail you as a sneaker at
it ever thought you'd be a sneaker.

Speaker 5 (19:45):
I mean, these are gorgeous and a brand new so
I do.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
Not wear a size fifteen.

Speaker 4 (19:49):
You will know.

Speaker 6 (19:52):
Them.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
That creeped me out, the fact that they fit perfectly.

Speaker 5 (19:57):
All right, let's keep hacking away with these acts eighties
ship parts?

Speaker 4 (20:02):
Is this a lot of bills? Rats? A lot of
bills rats. I never knew bills rats get that big.
But that's pretty big.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Stop chopping the wall. Sorry, look at the crates. It's okay.

Speaker 6 (20:15):
I'm not mad that you smaller crates in it Russian
doll style.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
What is that with crate?

Speaker 6 (20:20):
That's a big thing with a canvas over it? Over there?

Speaker 5 (20:23):
Is that probably a.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
Canvas, it's a t probably a box of canvases.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Maybe it's a T box.

Speaker 6 (20:27):
There's like rat let's.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
Check it out, all right, you get the other end.

Speaker 5 (20:35):
We're gonna do it. We're gonna do one of those
bed sheet things.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
My why.

Speaker 3 (20:48):
Why did you do that?

Speaker 2 (20:49):
In my eyes?

Speaker 3 (20:50):
That is a lot of.

Speaker 4 (20:53):
Pink. Guy, that's gonna be like ultra take eye or something.

Speaker 6 (20:57):
What is that like a little like life?

Speaker 5 (20:58):
That's a nice look.

Speaker 6 (20:59):
There's like personal items in here and stuff.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
It's weird.

Speaker 4 (21:03):
The heart of the sea like a hat.

Speaker 6 (21:05):
Over there, like and there's handwriting.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
Handwriting, yeah, oh yeah, right there yeah, tick a to
zoom in.

Speaker 8 (21:12):
Wait, hold on, it seems like there's painting over the
insignia here. I can't really make it home.

Speaker 6 (21:17):
Yea, I look like somebody said it hastily.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
Marie? Is this you're both was this saying Morton?

Speaker 4 (21:23):
Oh my god?

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Mary?

Speaker 7 (21:24):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (21:25):
What does that say?

Speaker 6 (21:26):
I know exactly what this is?

Speaker 9 (21:27):
What is it?

Speaker 6 (21:28):
You guys? Ever heard of the Mary Celeste?

Speaker 7 (21:32):
Really?

Speaker 2 (21:33):
Is that like those frozen Like.

Speaker 9 (21:37):
There's the Marie calendars, but then there's also there is
a Celesti.

Speaker 4 (21:43):
They know each other. Are the friends? Maybe it's the
same people, another conspiracy.

Speaker 9 (21:49):
That's interesting, though, because the Mary Celeste is kind of
known for being a couple of different things. To the
Canadians who built this merchant brigantine, it was a normal
sea frame vessel made to specifications. Did the Americans who
ordered her, she was as advertised, And to those who
dedicated their lives and well being to the confines within,

(22:11):
she was much more.

Speaker 6 (22:13):
She may have also been their deathbed. Oo oh I
like this, Yeah, watch out.

Speaker 9 (22:20):
This duality has been the only constant since the sailing
vessel Mary Celeste was found a drift off the Azores
Islands on December fourth.

Speaker 6 (22:29):
Eighteen seventy two. There's a lot going on about this boat.

Speaker 9 (22:33):
You'll find many different things, quick little lists about different
names and everything on various websites.

Speaker 6 (22:39):
But there's a big mystery at the end of her life.

Speaker 9 (22:45):
So in all these mystery podcasts dedicating all their time,
they all reached the same consensus.

Speaker 6 (22:50):
There is no answer, there is no resolution, there's no absolution.

Speaker 9 (22:56):
Good word the questioner will always remain what happened to
the ten people aboard the Mary Celeste? Well Captain Benjamin
Briggs first mate, Albert Richardson, six crew members and two
fateful passengers, Captain Briggs's wife Sarah and their young daughter Sophia.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Oh beautiful name, it is beautiful.

Speaker 9 (23:18):
So the backstory, the keel of a two masted ship
was laid down in Nova Scotia, Canada in eighteen sixty
so the maiden voyage was in June of eighteen sixty one,
and the boat's original name was Amazon.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
Ooh.

Speaker 6 (23:33):
But then two events happened.

Speaker 9 (23:36):
A storm drove the vessel ashore near Nova Scotia in
October of eighteen sixty seven, so about six years after
her first voyage, made voyage and the ship was declared
a wreck, so it was bought like as a derelict
ship refitted.

Speaker 6 (23:52):
So this guy, Richard Haynes, became.

Speaker 9 (23:53):
Her new captain and eighteen sixty eight December of eighteen
sixty eight, he renamed her following maritime new ownership traditions.
So you's got to get a new name. So now
goes from the Amazon or just Amazon, and now she
is the Mary Celeste.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
It's much more approachable.

Speaker 9 (24:11):
Yeah. So now the Mary Celeste is captained by Captain Haynes.
But he fell into his steep financial debt, and he
had to sell the ship and it was refitted in
New York at a cost of over ten grand in
eighteen seventy two wow, which is about two hundred and
seventy two thousand dollars in.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Model all of a fee such like a yacht.

Speaker 9 (24:33):
It doesn't give the exact measurements, but basically her everything
was like increased her length, breadth, depth, like everything she
was just like made just a ship.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Yeah, yeah, Like what is real?

Speaker 3 (24:44):
What is still the ship? I mean, it's like, if
you replace the entire ship, is it just like a
new ship?

Speaker 8 (24:49):
That's the ship of THESEUS philosophy question. If you have
a ship and then you replace the mast, is the
mass of the original ship? And then if you replace
all of the parts of the ship and put it
in a museum somewhere, is that the original ship?

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Or is this the original ship?

Speaker 3 (25:03):
There's a juggler I knew that said, and he had
an axe. He's like, this is the original axe that
George Washington chopped down the cherry tree with. However, I
had to replace the handle and the head. But it
occupies the same space, yes.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
Exactly, exactly as the ship is now. This bigger ship.

Speaker 9 (25:24):
This is where Benjamin Briggs ad buys her. So he's
the captaint the Helm and he is the last and
final captain.

Speaker 6 (25:32):
Under the new name.

Speaker 9 (25:33):
The first trip was to Genoa, Italy, and Captain Briggs
requested his wife and daughter accompany.

Speaker 6 (25:39):
Him, and the crew was painstakingly vetted.

Speaker 9 (25:43):
Okay, so these just weren't just like regular people, like
everything was very thoughtful.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Were veterinarians, Yeah they were.

Speaker 6 (25:49):
They all knew how to treat dolphins.

Speaker 9 (25:54):
So Albert Richardson, whose first mate he had sailed with
Briggs before second May, he was twenty five.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
He obviously knew that guy's work ethic.

Speaker 9 (26:03):
Yeah, I mean, they like some people knew people like
they like married people, They were friends with people, babies.
Prior to the journey, which was in October of eighteen
seventy two, Captain Briggs personally supervised loading over seventeen hundred
barrels of alcohol on the East for ten people in
New York City. So they're taking it over to Genoa, Italy.

(26:27):
So they were shipping it over across the.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
Atlantic, and the captain personally oversaw that.

Speaker 9 (26:32):
Yes, he personally oversaw everything. And then his wife, Sarah
and their daughter, Sophia.

Speaker 6 (26:38):
She was just two years old. They joined him a
week later.

Speaker 9 (26:42):
So Mary Celest intended on leaving in November, but waited
until weather clear two days later, so they're.

Speaker 6 (26:47):
Going to leave on the fifth. They left on the
seventh of November.

Speaker 9 (26:51):
Sarah, his wife, was able to send a final letter
to the mother in law, kind of letting her know
what's going on, you know, no cell phones.

Speaker 6 (27:00):
In seventy two.

Speaker 9 (27:01):
The Briggs family, they also had a son, Arthur, aged seven,
so she wrote to him, tell him, I'll like send
him some letters, you know that I'll come get him.

Speaker 6 (27:11):
Try to remember anything that happens in the voyage, like
write to him, see him later.

Speaker 5 (27:14):
He was probably in the school.

Speaker 6 (27:16):
Yeah, he was like seven years old.

Speaker 9 (27:17):
So I also would like to mention that at this time,
there was another ship that was leaving around the same
time as the Mary Celeste called the day Gratia. She
was anchored outside of Hoboken, New Jersey, and she was
going to pick up a cargo of petroleum.

Speaker 6 (27:36):
So they were also going to Geno, Italy.

Speaker 9 (27:38):
So it's this other ship leaving around the same time
right behind the Mary Celeste. Seem like lead across paths
at some point yeah or yeah, yeah, be close to
one another, probably following.

Speaker 6 (27:48):
Yeah, following, and they're like right behind.

Speaker 9 (27:50):
Yeah. So the Day Gratia had Captain David Morehouse. He
was the captain of that boat and first made Oliver
Devaux and come.

Speaker 5 (27:57):
So there's a reason why we're learning these names.

Speaker 3 (27:59):
Yeah, yeah, these people come up okay, and they just
went on on their own trip and then their own
fine time.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
I just like the people.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
So Thomas Moore and bell bid got it.

Speaker 9 (28:10):
So Mary Celeste left on the seventh and the Day
Gratia left on the fifteenth, so just eight days behind them.
On December fourth, as the Day Gratia was past the
Azores and nearing the coast of Portugal, the helmsman called
out so a vessel was lumbering towards them at a
distance of about six miles. So Captain Moorehouse noticed the

(28:32):
erratic movements and kind of just everything didn't look right.
Everything looked to miss, you know, like the sails were
kind of all flail little about and everything.

Speaker 6 (28:40):
They weren't seeing any movement.

Speaker 9 (28:42):
So then the first mate from the Day Gratia and
the second mate they dispatched like a little lifeboat to
make physical contact with the Mary Celeste.

Speaker 8 (28:52):
And it's like naval tradition, right, if they see some
kind of vessel in distress, you stop what you're doing.

Speaker 5 (28:58):
Your mission isn't important anymore.

Speaker 6 (29:00):
Yeah, otherwise I feel like you get cursed or something.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
Right, you guys have a great time. We're gonna keep
on going. You died over there, all right to you later.

Speaker 6 (29:07):
So first they you know, confirm, okay Mary Celest.

Speaker 9 (29:09):
They look at the boat, they see the name of it,
and they get they climb aboard, but there was nobody
on board, completely deserted.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Wow.

Speaker 9 (29:17):
The sales were in bad condition, damage like ropes for
flailing everywhere. The main hatch was was secured, but like
some of the hatches were open and their covers were
just like lying.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
Just on the deck.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
And they left the same time as the other about
eight days different concerned.

Speaker 9 (29:38):
Yes, the binnacle, which is the waist high navigational instrument
that like houses the compass was like smashed and not
in place.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Yes, I've seen those things. It looks like the thing
on like that golf game.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
And you guys, you always see the guys that think
they are alpha dudes. And they played golden tea and
they hit the screen.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
They're like, hey, I'm a nineteenth century navigator.

Speaker 5 (30:04):
Yeah, I was thinking maybe the same thing.

Speaker 8 (30:06):
Constellation like instruments, sextant, sextant, that's exactly what it is.

Speaker 9 (30:12):
In the hold of the ship, they found about three
and a half feet of water. But for a ship
that size, I mean, we don't know, Like they said, right,
it's like it's doable, it's like it's significant, but it
wouldn't really have been like cause to abandoned ship. Correct,
So abandoned on the deck was a hastily fashioned like sounding.

Speaker 6 (30:33):
Rod so to measure the depth of the water in
the hole.

Speaker 9 (30:35):
Like so someone was like, oh god, you know, like
there's things going on, but the only lifeboat was missing,
so kind of a good sign, but so weird, right,
like the boat's still technically seaworthy, seaworthy exactly, and.

Speaker 7 (30:49):
That you said that they weren't docked, it was they
were approaching the coast, so still it's still open yeah,
open water.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
And how much like what was the size of the
crew for the size of the lifeboat.

Speaker 6 (31:01):
There were ten people?

Speaker 4 (31:02):
Okay, so maybe absolutely.

Speaker 5 (31:05):
Yeah, but why but why captain.

Speaker 9 (31:08):
In the mate's cabin The last journal entry was dated
nine days earlier weird on November twenty fifth, so this
was a December fourth, which placed a ship four hundred
nautical miles away.

Speaker 6 (31:22):
So aside from the obvious.

Speaker 9 (31:24):
Damage of water entry like the hatches and skylights and everything,
everything else seemed normal. There were lots of provisions, supplies
of food, water. Captain navigational instruments were missing. There were
no evidence to suggest like fire or danger.

Speaker 5 (31:40):
So navigational instruments were missing.

Speaker 6 (31:42):
Navigational instruments they were missing.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
It's like they stole the ancient black box kind of.

Speaker 5 (31:48):
Or they got into the lifeboat and were like, navigate somewhere.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Right, Socia needs a bathroom.

Speaker 9 (31:54):
Yeah, So the two men returned to the de Gratia
to report what they saw. Captain moorehouse, he saw salvage rights.
He's like, well, no one's here, it's been abandoned, like
it's ours.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
So you can't leave seventeen thousand you say, wow, alcohol
all right?

Speaker 9 (32:13):
So he split his crew in two in both vessels
and towed the derelic Tamaris last the six hundred nautical
miles to Gibraltar Jesus, where it was immediately impounded by
an advice Admiralty.

Speaker 6 (32:28):
Peaky's out. This is where things get like really wild
with this.

Speaker 9 (32:32):
It's already such a mystery of what happened at the sea,
but then like also how things are handled.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
Yet they immediately so there's like.

Speaker 9 (32:42):
A whole salvage court on December seventeen. And this Attorney
General Gibraltar, this Frederick solid Flood. It was a great name,
solid Flood.

Speaker 6 (32:52):
Yeah, keep better not be the captain.

Speaker 9 (32:53):
Let's just no, He's the Attorney General of Gibraltar, which
is also a cool title though a g He was
kind of noted as being around like pompous and just
like always trying to act a little smarter than he
actually was. Dick, and he he just decided that there
was like foul play because there was alcohol.

Speaker 6 (33:13):
Like the alcohol.

Speaker 9 (33:14):
He was just assumed like, oh, obviously something happened here.
It was examined that obviously the ship was examined. There
were two large cuts in the bow and they were
said to be intentionally caused by.

Speaker 6 (33:28):
Two independent observers.

Speaker 9 (33:29):
Okay, and then someone else said there were stains on
one of the ship rails suggesting blood and they thought
maybe with an axe. So the conclusion they did Bratzia.
The crew got to the alcohol and murdered Briggs family.
So they're thinking like the crews kind of went out
to got to the booze, murdered the family and they
all just kind of like left in this like drunken rage,

(33:51):
like because everything was it was so weird, right, and
they was like grabbed navigational tools and like left, you know.
So then they thought they cut it into to it
and like there's a missing lifeboat and I want to see.

Speaker 6 (34:03):
The movie made of that.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
Yeah, it's like the Red Wedding at.

Speaker 6 (34:06):
Sea, right, like Cocaine Bear somehow it's Louis a List.
Oh my gosh, who would be the one like real
person in that? Pa Pascal?

Speaker 4 (34:16):
Yeah, I see Walton Goggins.

Speaker 6 (34:20):
Oh that would be good.

Speaker 9 (34:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (34:22):
Listen hear Kermit with the big as teeth.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
I don't know Kermit, and this guy's giving me some
weird vibes.

Speaker 6 (34:30):
Nice wasn't very good.

Speaker 9 (34:32):
So Captain Morahouse and the crew like they were accused
of covering something up, like okay, gotcha, that's.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
What it seems like when they like don't worry about
what happened.

Speaker 9 (34:41):
This guy, James Winchester comes into play in the story.
He was one of the Mary Celeste owners. He came
along and he was like, when can we just sell
this alcohol? Those part of this whole thing is like
this alcohol.

Speaker 5 (34:52):
He must have been hurting for money, dude, Yeah, Like
you got to be kidding me. It was so when
was that?

Speaker 9 (34:56):
That was in January, so I don't know what in
a long Oh they missed Christmas several months.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
This guy is like, yes, it's a tragedy. Yes, yes, yes,
you know.

Speaker 6 (35:05):
Where they are, but can we get the barrels?

Speaker 2 (35:08):
Like, oh, I understand that.

Speaker 8 (35:09):
They're like as a business owner to be like, okay, look,
we get it, but can we sell the seventeen thousand
barrels of alcohol so we can pay debt?

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Dude?

Speaker 5 (35:20):
Yeah, dying here like please?

Speaker 7 (35:21):
And then we can figure that means not literally dying,
like somebody may have died on this, but still we're
hurting financially.

Speaker 9 (35:28):
So then for whatever reason, this like attorney general, this
crazy guy Salty Flood, because this Winchester guy was like, hey,
can we just figure out what you do here?

Speaker 6 (35:36):
He made these like accusations that insinuated Winchester.

Speaker 9 (35:40):
So this new guy purposely hired Briggs to murder everybody
on board.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
This is what he said, including his family people.

Speaker 9 (35:47):
Yes, mild with creativity here because he's like follow Winchester's
Beheman testimony is to the contrary. The scientific community then
rammed it in Flood's mouth and said there was no
evidence of blood at all anywhere on the ship, and
there were not intentional cuttings of the bout at all,
so rather it was a natural damage from stress on
like the actual boat.

Speaker 5 (36:07):
So scientists were like.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
You have to stop talking.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
You don't know what you're saying. Mister Rogan did.

Speaker 6 (36:13):
As long as he could and then just released it
because he's bitch anyway.

Speaker 9 (36:20):
Captain Morehouse and first Mate devote because they wanted salvage rights.

Speaker 6 (36:23):
They wanted some money for at least the boat, like
they did the effort of brought it in. I had
and it's now ours.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
And you know what that probably took so long. Tugging
along this boat is like a half full bucket of water.

Speaker 5 (36:39):
It's not like something.

Speaker 6 (36:43):
Yeah, there's no motor to help out like this is
just by wind power, yeah, Captain Morehouse.

Speaker 9 (36:48):
So the guys from the day Gratia and first Mate
they received like a very low payout for the boat
for the salvage mission.

Speaker 6 (36:54):
The alcohol, however, was sold a great profit.

Speaker 9 (36:56):
Of course, they didn't see any of that, and they
were just were seen. It was just like behaving suspiciously
like they did it.

Speaker 6 (37:03):
Oh well, like they tried and that's it.

Speaker 9 (37:06):
Well, so I mean people it was such a confusing
story though, like foul play, like people were still thinking
about that, you know, and and also this attorney general
like his incompetence about it too. So one of the
only other possible theories relates to like the content of
the whole. So the ship's log makes multiple mentions of
rumblings and sounds coming from the hold, so like barrels

(37:29):
of alcohol and naturally can emit gas maybe like someone
could have gone a candle open flames, Like they didn't
see that any fire thing, so I mean the displaced
hatches and stuff like that allowed water in and.

Speaker 6 (37:42):
The panic they just left the boat like they were scared.
But no, they didn't see anything. There was just nothing
that they could really figure out, aside.

Speaker 9 (37:50):
From just any other thing that could happened on the water, right,
a water spout, a submarine earthquake, you know, something coming
from underneath a displaced iceberg, like.

Speaker 6 (37:58):
It was in winter, you know. Yeah, the ship was
just left to rock because no one want a curse hip.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
No, I'm not touching.

Speaker 9 (38:06):
And she was intentionally sunk in an obvious insurance fraud scheme.

Speaker 6 (38:11):
That's a whole other thing.

Speaker 9 (38:12):
So no one knows what happened to Captain Briggs, his wife,
the daughter Sophia, all the crew members.

Speaker 6 (38:18):
Yeah, just lost to the sea.

Speaker 8 (38:21):
What's fascinating about this is that if it was like,
let's say piracy, you would take some barrels about them.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
You would take the food, you would take yeah, visions,
but it's a.

Speaker 3 (38:32):
Small you know, you don't we don't know the size
of the lifeboat. So it might have been like, okay,
they show up, let's get the dodge.

Speaker 8 (38:39):
But they would definitely have some kind of fresh water
hold and that was probably okay, that was like fine,
like meats and cheeses.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
That wouldn't take those.

Speaker 6 (38:48):
I mean, the people seem like that had money, like
they were like of wealth. There was pirates that were attacking.

Speaker 5 (38:53):
Wouldn't there have been like signs of a struggle.

Speaker 6 (38:56):
Yeah, like violent damage to the ship.

Speaker 8 (38:58):
Yeah, they said, the only thing was like slight water
damage from being adrift for namer.

Speaker 10 (39:04):
Just taking on water naturally, So that could just be
what happens when you're not bailing out.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
But the boat was eventually sank if that was true.

Speaker 5 (39:11):
Yeah, there were scrapes on the side, though.

Speaker 4 (39:13):
Maybe they were just giant pussies. The pirates showed up
or like, let's take.

Speaker 8 (39:16):
The booze, right, You don't what to do, Frank, he goes, right,
he goes. That just started slashing.

Speaker 6 (39:29):
That is another theory.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
We have cracked the caves. We have cracked the caves,
and so.

Speaker 7 (39:35):
One hundred and you know, forty years later, one hundred
and fift years later, nobody knows what happened to you.

Speaker 5 (39:40):
There's no way that's going to be solved.

Speaker 10 (39:42):
So all the people that owned the ship sunk it
so they could get the money for the seeking. But
who profited off all the booze they sold?

Speaker 9 (39:47):
Probably that Winchester, Yeah, Winchester. That was the whole thing
they were bringing over to Italy with all the alcohol.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
The owners of people are gaining the system using insurance scams.

Speaker 6 (39:59):
For one hundred and the whole crew that like there
were just these like you know sailors. They yeah, they
brought that ship in. They're the reason why all these
people were able to get their the profit off of that.
They got nothing for it. So that's the Mary celesson.

Speaker 9 (40:13):
And here's the lifeboat, which is super creepy because uh,
where are the people?

Speaker 2 (40:18):
Kind of cool though, how you even get this?

Speaker 8 (40:21):
Yeah, it looks like it's he damaged trying to look
at this. There's a CD player he traveled that works.

Speaker 6 (40:28):
It does work, though he does.

Speaker 4 (40:29):
Have an anti skip protection.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
That stuff is.

Speaker 4 (40:31):
Always an you can take it off.

Speaker 5 (40:32):
Yeah, diss. He's got a sub wolfer over here.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
This is clear greets you out.

Speaker 8 (40:38):
As I'm looking at this awesome sub sliffer. I also
see the back door of this office open.

Speaker 5 (40:44):
You guys want to check it out.

Speaker 4 (40:48):
There's a secret pass we're going in.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
It's just a regular passage.

Speaker 4 (40:52):
No, no, no, I want to it's secret to me
because I just saw it.

Speaker 8 (40:55):
Oh well the light stores must yeah, oh that's cool.

Speaker 4 (41:02):
Maps.

Speaker 5 (41:03):
Have you guys seen the.

Speaker 4 (41:04):
Last of us? You forced me to actually say you
actually literally forced me to see.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
A lot because this is nothing like that.

Speaker 5 (41:12):
Over there, we see a map.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
There's a lot of maps in here. They don't have any.

Speaker 5 (41:18):
Maps in the last.

Speaker 2 (41:19):
But it does look like this is.

Speaker 6 (41:23):
Right there we are.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
Yes, it looks like just.

Speaker 5 (41:25):
Right across the bay, there's a dam dare.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
That kind of makes sense with all the landscape thing.

Speaker 5 (41:32):
So he flooded this land.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Yeah, that's not cool.

Speaker 6 (41:38):
Free engineering. What's underneath bay?

Speaker 2 (41:43):
Yeah, it does look like there's just other markings on
this map, Murray, check out the map.

Speaker 5 (41:47):
Can you see anything?

Speaker 2 (41:48):
All right?

Speaker 6 (41:48):
All right? So kind of looks like a little homes,
you know, like a Monopoly we get like the homes.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Really bad flashbacks, like a little place on top of a.

Speaker 6 (42:00):
They're going to get family there.

Speaker 4 (42:01):
Yeah, that's all. That's all monopoly is there for.

Speaker 3 (42:03):
There's two things that you either get a fight with
a family member or later on you step on one.
They make legos seem pleasant because if you I still
have a house from Monopoly that's been going through my
bloodstream since nineteen seventy six, when I stepped on.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
It, that looked at my man.

Speaker 3 (42:18):
No, I mean I could see it. I can see
it coming up, and so it's fine. But I mean
it's like, stay right where you are, at least you know.

Speaker 6 (42:23):
Where it's at. We go across here too, This dam yeah,
I think we can make it.

Speaker 5 (42:28):
I think we can make it by swimming.

Speaker 6 (42:29):
No no, no, no no no no no no no.

Speaker 10 (42:31):
But if we find a sea worthy vessel out there,
I mean, let's go check out.

Speaker 6 (42:34):
There's we're on a dock. Let's go see through some boats.
Let's go check it out.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
Why would there be boats and it? Oh doc, okay,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 (42:41):
I thought that was pretty clear.

Speaker 5 (42:43):
If we do want to get across this bay, we
need a ship of something. And I don't know, I
don't see.

Speaker 6 (42:50):
At least test a hold five of us.

Speaker 4 (42:52):
And you know not to sing, So let's I can
just hold on to the side. I know that's what
you guys are thinking.

Speaker 8 (42:57):
It's like if you go over there, you look over there, right,
you go there, you look over there, you go over there,
you look over there, Angela, you go there, you look
over there.

Speaker 6 (43:04):
You just told us all the same spot.

Speaker 4 (43:06):
All right, let's all go over to the thing you
pointed out.

Speaker 5 (43:08):
I'm gonna stay here.

Speaker 4 (43:09):
Yeah, yeah, okay, big giant ass boats out of the space.
No boats, big boats here? Oh no, guys, I hear
the anxiety coming through the fog.

Speaker 5 (43:23):
Guess we'll just go back to look.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
Look, you see that it's cruising through the fog. It's
a sailing ship. Oh my god, well that looks that
looks appropriately sized. That's that's got a new job.

Speaker 4 (43:38):
It looks like a nice you know. It's it looks
like it's got good wood. It's like just like me.
It's good.

Speaker 6 (43:44):
It's moving of.

Speaker 9 (43:48):
It.

Speaker 6 (43:48):
Just wow, perfectly parked at the dock. This is convenient.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
That's a convenient and creepy. Let's just accept the ship
of Fate, the mystery ship of Fate. Let's all put
our lives in the hands of the mystat What could
go wrong wrong?

Speaker 5 (44:06):
Did anyone know how to work a sails?

Speaker 4 (44:08):
None of us have any skills.

Speaker 10 (44:11):
Guys, guys, I got this sailing skills from back in
my sailing days.

Speaker 5 (44:16):
Yeah, all right, I got Captain Marie at the helm.

Speaker 6 (44:20):
Angela.

Speaker 10 (44:20):
You get the wheel, Yeah, I got it, all right,
I got the sails point in that direction.

Speaker 4 (44:24):
What do you want me to do?

Speaker 1 (44:25):
What do you want me to do?

Speaker 6 (44:26):
Just just sit there?

Speaker 2 (44:28):
Sit down?

Speaker 6 (44:28):
Yeah, just sit down? No, not on the same side,
off the rudder. All right?

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Where do I do?

Speaker 6 (44:35):
Specifics? You go over there, you go over there.

Speaker 4 (44:39):
I waste the jib. I always wanted to waste the jib.

Speaker 9 (44:41):
What is that?

Speaker 6 (44:42):
I got it?

Speaker 2 (44:42):
I got it? Is this the mess?

Speaker 8 (44:45):
This?

Speaker 5 (44:46):
You're listening to?

Speaker 6 (44:46):
Fort Frits.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
Welcome back to Fort Fritz. We are on a sailboat.

Speaker 8 (44:59):
I am your host, Fritz as always, joined by co
host Mandaddy, Hi, next bride, first mate Angela and Captain Moray.

Speaker 5 (45:10):
Does that make me a second mate?

Speaker 4 (45:11):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Definitely not, because I'm not doing off over you here?

Speaker 6 (45:15):
Can you please sit down? I asked you to do.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Just just sit down.

Speaker 6 (45:28):
It's fine. Angela and I have this all right.

Speaker 4 (45:30):
Careful, buddy, that mising mask comes at you fast, a
lot of fog.

Speaker 5 (45:34):
Where the hell are we going?

Speaker 6 (45:36):
I don't know, man, Daddy man the acre?

Speaker 4 (45:39):
Well, I mean, you don't know where land is.

Speaker 3 (45:41):
So I need to like I need to pull the
anchor up or drop the anchor by, just stand out,
hang out with the anchor.

Speaker 4 (45:47):
All right? You and me, buddy, what are you doing?

Speaker 6 (45:50):

Speaker 4 (45:53):
Why are you?

Speaker 6 (45:54):
A four life? Best song for us?

Speaker 4 (45:57):
We need, each of us should have a life.

Speaker 2 (45:59):
That said you didn't know? You said though you didn't
want because of fashion. No, you don't know.

Speaker 4 (46:11):
Yes, at least one person is usually the allotment.

Speaker 2 (46:15):
All right here, I'm taking one off you even like
you guys have been holding me back for a.

Speaker 6 (46:23):
While keeping.

Speaker 7 (46:27):
We need those light jacket losing you guys, I'm freaking out,
freaking out, doubt it just.

Speaker 10 (46:32):
Everybody sitting in your spots that I allotted you Angel
keep steering.

Speaker 6 (46:36):
I'm trying, but they're running around.

Speaker 9 (46:38):
I know.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
You guys. Hear the sounds.

Speaker 6 (46:43):
Sit down, Yes, that will happen.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
What is going on or some sort of failing?

Speaker 3 (46:50):
I don't know.

Speaker 9 (46:50):
Guys.

Speaker 2 (46:53):
You hear that.

Speaker 6 (46:56):
Thumpings?

Speaker 9 (46:56):
What is it?

Speaker 5 (46:59):
That's why you got mind him? You hear it?

Speaker 2 (47:03):
Right?

Speaker 1 (47:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (47:04):
Yeah, now it's over here?

Speaker 9 (47:06):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (47:06):
Who's doing?

Speaker 6 (47:08):
I want to see everybody's hands hands up?

Speaker 2 (47:10):
Guys. No, look, we need those life jackets.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
Fricks.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
You've been damn guys. Bet you know how important life
jackets are.

Speaker 5 (47:16):
I have been concussed three times. I think I need
four life shows.

Speaker 6 (47:19):
Put it on your head, none of me. The word
life is a follows.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
You know how.

Speaker 7 (47:22):
Important these things are, guys. It will literally save lives,
hundreds of lives. Have you guys ever heard of the
USS Indianapolis. The story of the USS Indianapolis literally after
helping to end World War two. The story of the
USS Indianapolis is considered to be both the biggest blunder

(47:45):
in US naval history and the largest shark attack.

Speaker 2 (47:49):
In known human history.

Speaker 7 (47:52):
Originally commissioned in nineteen thirty one, Wait, why are you
telling us this?

Speaker 2 (47:56):
Well, because you.

Speaker 4 (47:57):
Need a life jack something a good idea right now?

Speaker 5 (48:00):
Not really, we keep hearing bumps.

Speaker 6 (48:03):
I think it's a cautionary tail.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
It is, okay, that was a big one.

Speaker 7 (48:07):
Yeah, So the Indianapolis was a Portland class heavy cruiser
that is smaller, faster, and less armed and armored than
a battleship, but larger and a bit more fortified than
say a light cruiser. The Indianapolis was one hundred and
eighty six meters long twenty meters that it's with. It
displaced nine and fifty log tons. It employed eight boilers

(48:31):
to power four parsons reduction steam turbines motoring the four
massive crews or propellers.

Speaker 4 (48:38):
I don't even know what you're talking about anymore.

Speaker 2 (48:40):
Of Cubans washing machine.

Speaker 7 (48:42):
So a long ton is approximately two and forty pounds
it's what the US is standard unit of measurement.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
Is for big loads. Okay, long time, yeah, a long time,
a long tune, like a long pig regular.

Speaker 5 (48:55):
Yeah, this is the bigger tunnel body.

Speaker 7 (48:57):
So this boat, it was armed with eight twenty five
caliber anti aircraft guns, nine eight inch fifty five caliber guns,
and two three pounder forty seven millimeters saluting guns, the
ones that kind of you know, I'm doing this, this
is not a good medium for, you know, a podcast,
but it's the kind of the long, straight ones that
were so yeah, yeah, like up and down, up and down,

(49:19):
very phallic like. So at the time of this incident,
its crew numbered eleven hundred and ninety seven men. Wow,
this was no joke, and so up until this point
this was one of the prides of the US Navy.
It served as Roosevelt's ship of State for three different tours.
It fought in ten major battles, including being a figure
in the bombardment during the Battle of Iwajima, and a

(49:42):
month later, a Kamakazi pilot dive bombed right into the
hull and this caused extensive jammage and it forced the
cruiser to port for repairs and its very next mission
was pivotal to the outcome of the war in the
Pacific and in Japan's very surrender. So before that, remember this,
At this time, most of the Endless Men were extremely
young men. Many of the survivors of this tragedy admitted

(50:04):
to being barely seventeen, eighteen, nineteen years old. Just to
keep this fact in mind when you're thinking about the
mindset of these boys as they enter into one of
the most brutal stories of human survival in all of
the horrors that traversed World War II.

Speaker 3 (50:19):
We send people whose brains aren't even fully functioning in
to do the work of rich people that will never
see dirt on or blood on their hands.

Speaker 4 (50:29):
It's crazy, The logic is staggering.

Speaker 2 (50:32):
You're not wrong.

Speaker 7 (50:34):
So it's July sixteenth, nineteen forty five, and Indianapolis departs
the San Francisco Naval Harbor after being outfitted with special
top secret cargo, cargo that is so secret that special
containers were built just to hold it and welded to
the ship to house this mysterious gear. The officers and

(50:54):
the crew did not know what was contained inside these
massive crates familiar.

Speaker 5 (51:00):
A Philadelphia experiment code.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
So the men took bets as to what the contents
of this could be.

Speaker 7 (51:05):
Uh, parncorn, some said weapons, all the way to the
outlandish of saying a metric tons worth of cinnamon toilet
paper to be delivered directly to General MacArthur's paper.

Speaker 4 (51:18):
Yeah that is I am interested in that, guys in Tampa.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
Yeah, that's gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (51:28):
So the crew would not realize until weeks later that
they had been responsible for the transport of the riched
uranium and other parts that were vital for the assemblage
of the atomic bombs that were subsequently dropped on Hiroshima and.

Speaker 2 (51:40):
Na fun facts.

Speaker 7 (51:43):
Yeah, this was about half of the world the entire
world's supply of uranium two thirty five at the time.

Speaker 4 (51:50):
What people to blow up.

Speaker 7 (51:52):
So they left from San Francisco and they went to
Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. And also due to the top
secret nature of this voyage, the Indianapolis would sail on
to Tinian, one of one of the major islands in
the Mariana Islands, like in the middle of nowhere.

Speaker 2 (52:08):
That's where Guam is off to the east. So they're
in the middle of literally nowhere.

Speaker 7 (52:13):
But they.

Speaker 4 (52:15):
Whoever wants to go to nowhere.

Speaker 9 (52:18):
Side note, I did have a friend who was on
a submarine and they kept having to land in Guam,
and like at first he'd be like, em, Guham, it's cool.
Then after like the tenth time, he's like, i'mam.

Speaker 6 (52:27):
Again, it's not so cool.

Speaker 2 (52:28):
Stuff.

Speaker 9 (52:29):
Yeah, there's really nothing else. Has four restaurants, and I
know every single person here.

Speaker 5 (52:35):
To our listeners and Guam, we love you.

Speaker 6 (52:37):
Yeah, everyone in Guam.

Speaker 7 (52:40):
So the Indianapolis had to complete this last leg because
of the secret danger of the mission alone without an escort.

Speaker 6 (52:47):
That's insane. Here, just take this alone across this ocean.
Everything will be fine. It's just the most treacherous ocean and.

Speaker 2 (52:57):
Only half the world's urani.

Speaker 6 (52:59):
Yeah, Selaeen, good luck.

Speaker 7 (53:04):
So the cruiser successfully delivered its cargo on July twenty sixth,
and at a record breaking pace. It actually set a
sea speed recording that.

Speaker 2 (53:15):
Yeah, we gotta get that right.

Speaker 6 (53:17):
Now out of here.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
And then the ship went on to Guam to relieve some.

Speaker 7 (53:23):
Of the soldiers who were at the end of their
tours and pick up fresh crew members before departing on
the twenty eighth of July for La in the.

Speaker 6 (53:29):
Philippines fresh people.

Speaker 2 (53:31):
They were supposed to go.

Speaker 7 (53:32):
To the Philippines to receive training before advancing to Okinawa
to meet with Vice Admiral Oldendors Task Force ninety five.

Speaker 4 (53:40):
What Task Force ninety five?

Speaker 9 (53:42):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (53:43):
I love that they would never make it.

Speaker 9 (53:45):
Oh.

Speaker 7 (53:45):
Yeah. Shortly after midnight on July thirtieth, nineteen forty five,
the Indianapolis engaged with the I fifty eight, a Japanese
submarine captained.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
By Matsuchiro Hashimoto.

Speaker 7 (53:58):
Weather conditions had been poor, and it was at the
discretion of the Captain of Indianapolis, Charles R. McVay, the third,
that they would not choose to employ a normal evasive maneuver,
which would they commonly called zigzag, where you're turning the
ship back and forth in open water in order to
avoid torpedo attacks, and the I fifty eight launched six

(54:22):
torpedoes in order to counteract in case they decided to zigzag,
six torpedoes, which would mean that there was no escame
no matter what they did, they immediately had their number. Yes,
two of these torpedoes would strike the warship near the
bout and midship near the powder magazine, which is basically
where they would store gunpowder, warheads, things like that. And yeah,

(54:47):
there was a massive explosion that would rip the boat
down to the keel, causing the ship to list to
one side, knocking out all electrics and communications eventually, both
internally and externally, and the bow took on enough water
that the giant cruiser would up end and sink into
the black depths of the Pacific and the Indies. Bohemoth
screws are the last thing to disappear into the darkness.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
And this only took twelve minutes.

Speaker 3 (55:13):
Wat certain ships seek, they go slowly, slowly, and all
of a sudden went to it tips.

Speaker 7 (55:18):
Yeah, it also causes a massive whirlpool and sucks anything
within its vicinity down.

Speaker 5 (55:24):
Eleven hundred sailors right.

Speaker 2 (55:26):
Almost almost twelve hundred.

Speaker 4 (55:27):
Damn.

Speaker 7 (55:27):
But you know with the explosion, obviously there were lives
lost during these these twelve minutes in that the ship
was sinking. Word of mouth had to be relied on
for the crew to communicate with one another, everyone eventually
waiting for the order to abandon ship. Distress calls were
put out, in fact, three were put out, and it
is a mystery to this day as to why those
calls were never responded to. The explosion wounded numerous sailors,

(55:51):
killed others, and also dumped massive amounts of oil and
fuel into the ocean. And those slicks do not dissipate.
They are stuck together, floating on top of the water.
Droves of men like the surfaces in which they would
salvage to float in the black tar.

Speaker 4 (56:06):
That I've never thought about.

Speaker 3 (56:07):
That the fact that you're drowning and you're trying to
break the surface and you're in a oil.

Speaker 2 (56:12):
Size yeah, and you're slippering covering you.

Speaker 4 (56:15):
Oh my god. That's more terrified than ever thought. The ocean.

Speaker 2 (56:18):
It's also just after midnight, so it's huge black except for.

Speaker 6 (56:21):
The moon, and you're all slimy and slippery.

Speaker 7 (56:25):
Eight hundred and seventy nine men survived the attack, but
many would succumb to their injuries and wounds or shock
within the first eight hours less than half and then
the shark skin so not many lifeboats could be saved
from the Indianapolis. Many men formed clusters relying on debris

(56:46):
what life jackets FRITZ were available, and may stay afloat
for the next several days. The men would fight exposure
to the sun constant exposure to the salt water in
the skin, which makes your skin slough off in chunks.

Speaker 4 (57:02):
Skin.

Speaker 2 (57:05):
The words of this is great. It's called disquamination.

Speaker 7 (57:11):
Rescuers recount having to lift men out of the water
by their life jackets because touching their skin and tissue
would slip it right off.

Speaker 4 (57:22):
So it's like a full body being gloved, a full body, yeah.

Speaker 2 (57:28):
Yeah, gloving.

Speaker 7 (57:29):
So in addition to the discrimination, the sun exposure, the
constant exposure to the salt water, they had a lack
of drinking water none like, no to drink because they
had very little, if any food. Some said that they
were as crackers about or cans of stam Yeah, and
not to mention also being pitch black at night, the

(57:51):
injuries from the attacks suffered, and being covered in crude.
They had to deal with all of this while also
dealing with the worst shark attack in human history.

Speaker 6 (58:02):
Oh my god, that sounds like absolute hell. Stuff of nightmares.

Speaker 7 (58:06):
Drawn initially to the wreckage the abundant number of corpses
floating in the water, It's thought that a mix of
oceanic white tip and tiger sharks were responsible for the
ensuing carnage, and sharks and it's likely that their numbers
could have been would have been in the hundreds. And

(58:27):
they became increasingly frenzied in their appetite, and they boldly
began attacking the live survivors, picking them off one by
one and dragging them beneath the ocean.

Speaker 2 (58:37):
As they start kicking right, there's more sound and the
more stimulus.

Speaker 6 (58:41):
Right down the gullet with the oil just like.

Speaker 4 (58:45):
Extra flapping around. People are going to go and attack it. People,
I mean sharks. That was that was to.

Speaker 7 (58:57):
Some of these attacks did happen in broad daylight, a
lot of them in fact, And in the Pacific Ocean,
the water is crystal clear. So men literally watched their
friends being drug under the ocean and ripped to bits
by these sharks.

Speaker 8 (59:09):
Imagine being huddled and then just hoping other people get
it before you do.

Speaker 5 (59:13):
Man, that's crazy.

Speaker 6 (59:14):
A lot of damage.

Speaker 4 (59:17):
Wow, this is some really clear water.

Speaker 7 (59:19):
So obviously the men became fearful and desponded. Several men
committed suicide outright, while others, with hallucinations of distant islands,
lured others to watery tombs. Others tried to congregate in
larger groups and organized shark watches screaming and splashing the
water and intempts to scare them off or striking them
if possible. Others would use spam as a decoy, throwing

(59:40):
in the water to put them.

Speaker 2 (59:41):
Off the sense gius. Yeah, so this continued for four
days day.

Speaker 7 (59:50):
The Indianapolis was not cited as missing when it did
not arrive at its destination Atlante, despite having been able
to send off its three separate distress signals before losing
communit cations as the vessel sunk, and despite those signals
being received, no action was taken in response. It's strangely
thought that a commanding officer on duty was drunk at
the time these messages were sent. Uh oh, the US

(01:00:13):
Navy was not aware that the India had been sunk,
and no search was underway.

Speaker 9 (01:00:16):
All those people out there, no one's like I were.
Where are those twelve hundred people?

Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
Yeah, that's why the sea is scary. The sea is
so much bigger than people think. Well, and that we've
only explored like like of the ocean, it's even less
than that.

Speaker 7 (01:00:32):
Because of this incident, and since then, the Navy has
implemented uh sort of checks and balances to make sure
that this precedence.

Speaker 4 (01:00:41):
Who d yeah, hell of a whoopee days woops.

Speaker 7 (01:00:47):
On the fourth day, August second, as the men were
adrift by chance a PD one Ventura Bomber piloted by
Lieutenant Wilbur Chuck Guinn and a PB four to two
Catalina piloted by Bill Kitchen. These are US Naval aircraft
out on a routine patrol. They noticed something in the waters,
and they saw men. After they circled back, Win radio
to report to the base at that quote many water

(01:01:13):
end quote. This was the first that the US Navy
was made aware that anything at all had happened to
the Indianapolis.

Speaker 3 (01:01:19):
Wow.

Speaker 7 (01:01:20):
A seaplane sent to report on the situation and to
air drop life rafts, disobeyed orders to not land on
the ocean. But the pilot, Lieutenant Adrian Marx, had seen
the men being attacked by sharks, and he felt compelled
to save as many lives as possible.

Speaker 4 (01:01:33):
I should do something about this.

Speaker 7 (01:01:35):
His landing absolutely ruined the plane. It would not fly again,
but he did land and it did stay afloat. So
the ruined plane provided much needed safe harbor for the
fifty six men that he pulled out of the water
and laid across the wings and fuselages.

Speaker 6 (01:01:53):
Timing up the ship trying to get to safety.

Speaker 7 (01:01:56):
Yeah, and finally, after five days of wait god, ships
arrived to rescue the remaining survivors and transport them to hospital.
Let me guess three hundred survivors of the original eleven
and ninety seven men, three hundred and sixteen remain after
this insane terrible will power in survival.

Speaker 5 (01:02:18):
Yeah, that is terrible.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
Just how long were they just on the ship once
they brought up the majority of them, Like, how long
were they just on top of the plane.

Speaker 5 (01:02:27):
Yeah, that's a good question.

Speaker 7 (01:02:28):
Then once they were on the plane, it was probably
about maybe twelve more hours before a ship arrived.

Speaker 2 (01:02:33):
Yeah, because then there was there was also one.

Speaker 4 (01:02:35):
Hundreds before that.

Speaker 6 (01:02:38):
So, my god, on the sun baking.

Speaker 2 (01:02:41):
Of course, the Navy needed a scapegoat.

Speaker 7 (01:02:43):
So who did they go after but Charles McDavid no,
who was court martialed later on, the captain of the ship.

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
Really on two counts, Wow, yes, did he die? He
did not die, He survived. He was one of the survivors.

Speaker 6 (01:02:57):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (01:02:58):
And the crew.

Speaker 7 (01:03:00):
Adamant adamantly said that he was not he did everything
correctly that he gave the because one of the charges
was that he didn't do the proper zigzagging, but he
had given orders. Actually, the the captain of the I
fifty eight, Matsichito Hachimoto, testified on Captain mcvay's the half,
saying I shot out torpedoes in such an array that

(01:03:21):
he would there was no way to avoid it. This
is not this man's fault. The other charge he was
brought up on was not giving the abandoned ship.

Speaker 2 (01:03:28):
Order in enough time. How could he write? He was
court martialed.

Speaker 6 (01:03:33):
The men did, but they lost all of the electricity too.
They couldn't even communicate well.

Speaker 2 (01:03:37):
They had it for a few minutes and then eventually
went out.

Speaker 5 (01:03:39):
They were able to get generator.

Speaker 4 (01:03:42):
Sounds like they need an escapegoat.

Speaker 7 (01:03:44):
Eventually, after decades, the the survivors of the Indianapolis fought
to clear Captain mcvay's name. He actually had killed himself
about twenty years after because receiving hate mail from people
who were lost in the wreckage and things like that,
just tones about hate towards this man. But his name
was cleared under President Clinton towards the end of the

(01:04:07):
nineties but that's why we need.

Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
Those flipping life jack very I'll not give.

And we're here.

Speaker 5 (01:05:11):

I mean, beavers are great.

Speaker 8 (01:05:40):

vines growing through the middle. Man, it's not even like
a little Dutch boy putting his thumb in.

Oh, oh my gosh, he's kidding me.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
That is so cool, Falling John Joe.

Speaker 4 (01:06:18):
Look at that guy. We haven't a while.

Speaker 8 (01:06:20):
Falling just wrapped his tentacle around the stern of the
ship and he's going back to the naval yard.

Speaker 2 (01:06:26):
Guys, he was with this. That was the bumping.

Speaker 4 (01:06:29):
It's like he was He's like hugging the ship.

Speaker 3 (01:06:31):
He's like he was trying to hug us, but he
can't because it's a giant technacal beast.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
But he's also slowly taking it away, like.

Speaker 4 (01:06:38):
That's what he does. That's you know, he's a very
complex preacher.

Speaker 6 (01:06:41):
So explains that interstellar speed we were going.

Speaker 2 (01:06:44):
Yeah, that does.

Speaker 4 (01:06:46):
Own fault.

Speaker 6 (01:06:47):
I didn't saynything bad about him.

Speaker 5 (01:06:49):
Do you guys think he was like helping us out?

Speaker 4 (01:06:51):
I mean, he's never been mean to us.

Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
He kind of pushed the ship of definitely got us
here safely. Maybe we're on the right track. We have
to be on the right track. It's Collie Young Folly.
They were killed a guy. Yeah he did kill a guy.

Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
He didn't kill a guy, but I mean, I mean
that really.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Emaciated laughing, but yeah, it was funny.

Speaker 5 (01:07:11):
Do you remember that episode.

Speaker 2 (01:07:13):
I was terrified, but you guys are all alive to
tell the tale.

Speaker 6 (01:07:16):
Allegedly, I wasn't actually there.

Speaker 8 (01:07:18):
If Folly Jongs represents the unknown, maybe there is a
spark of the unknown that is guiding us towards our
next mission.

Speaker 6 (01:07:26):
Very beautiful poetic is that the Fort. I see the Fort?

Speaker 2 (01:07:30):
Oh hey wow, it's actually really.

You know, as we're now on the shore of this
distant land looking back at Fort Fritz, I realize, almost
like that pale blue dot photo of Earth taken by
the Voyager one spacecraft over three and a half billion
miles away.

Speaker 5 (01:07:51):
I now realize that is all we know. The fort
is all we know.

And if you are a homeowner, now is the perfect
time to refinance, to maybe lock in that low interest
he lock loan through that mortgage guy don at, that
mortgage guy done dot com.

pushing people where they need to go, And so we
