  1. This is incorrect. The first submarine actually passed the Thames in 1620 and 1624. 8 years before the Vasa’s dive in 1628. Learn your history before you claim they were first.

  2. What a waste, just sitting in a museum. Give it to Pedro, he can rescue people in the streets of Valencia

  3. I’ve been to that museum and is great that they tell you every single little thing about the ship and the things around it… except why it sunk.

  4. Yes, haha, the stupid Swedes sinking their own warships, we certainly *never* would do something like that. *Especially* not with modern safety procedures and technology. Any rumors of the contrary are, of course, fake news

  5. My favourites are the ones that drowned immediately, not on the way back to Sweden with stolen document books. Still great ship.

  6. Went on a trip to sweden with friends and we discovered theres a pattern in sweden. Not only that this ship sank in the harbour, theres a fort that was finished so late, it became irrelevant before it was used, because canons existed. There also was a canal that was finished so late, it got replaced by a trainline before it was finished.

  7. I see your ship which can not sail and I put our submarine which can go down but can not go up.

    (Luckily for them they realized the problem in time and now is a perfectly usefull submarine and packs quitte a punch but as a spanish engineer that shit was a shame for the guild)

  8. So you forgot about the Mary Rose?

    The Wasa Muslims were just imitating the Mary Rose-Barrys, fire a broadside, turn the ship to present the other side to fire again! Only.. something went horribly wrong and a U-boat weapon was invented .. and promptly rejected as a working weapon!
