@keon.obrien: I’ve never seen anything like it… #vasa #stockholm

Isaac :

They built this with not a single Milwaukee tool, air fryer or Zyns btw😭✌

Tim :

Never lost a battle btw

Yournextmove :

We used to make art.

Vitas👀 :

Jake :

The Vasa sank 1,400 yards into her maiden voyage. The king wanted too many cannons and the builders lacked the courage to warn the King of its instability. The cold, low salt, low oxygen, brackish waters prohibited bacteria or ship worms from surviving in those conditions to eat it, which led to its amazing preservation. The iron fasteners had been deteriorated but 98% of the wood was intact, 6 of her 10 sails, and 15 remains were found in the wreck as well as thousands of artifacts. She is the best preserved 17th century ship found.

Paul McNamara :

The detailing was unreal

kenny Anderson :

Holy aura. They don’t put detail into anything anymore.

Trzstzn_Cook :

Genuine question, how does a wooden ship sink if wood floats?

Joe McGrath :

Frank :

So much attention to detail back then. We’ve lost that completely

Lane💵 :

Art work on the back of the ships was always the symbols on how rich they really was making the ship

mzmagd :

How do they get this out of the water ?

J_K_D :

I was amazed by the detail. It was beautiful.

Dre :

i would've been like "king bruuuuhhh it ain't gon float"

Julia 🌸 :

Fun fact when my mom was young before the wood of the ship started deteriorating too badly they still had guided tours on and inside of the ship

Kmarie33 :

How is it preserved so well

Nigel :

Priceless piece of history 👍👍

Hagster🇳🇴 :

Ironically, if the ship hadn’t sunk, it most likely wouldn’t exist today

Badabing :

vart är mina svenskar? 👇🏽

Tyson Fenwick :

but we can’t get the titanic ?

Tom O :

it's crazy how we have generally lost the ability to make these fine wooden boats

Devon Lewis :

Reminds me of this ship from pirates of the Caribbean

Morbidsailormoon :

I actually can’t express how enormous this is in real life, there are like 3 separate floors of observations because it is so huge

Dexter you poop :

Video footage does not justify how big that ship is

276_Honda :

What sunk it?
