Fascinating story and video. But I gotta ask, whats that language everyone is speaking? It's quite primitive.

Cool.

I saw a documentary about this on Discovery and if I remember correctly all the crew got off. The captain lodged the top hatch open so that she would sink faster.

Recorded it, and watched it yesterday.

I had seen it before awhile ago.

Well worth a second watching, well presented.

It sounded like it would be too expensive to preserve which is a pity.
