This is Epic History TV's guide to HMS Victory, one of the most famous warships in history, and flagship of Vice Admiral Nelson at his decisive victory over the Franco-Spanish Combined Fleet at Trafalgar in 1805. In this episode we look at the composition of naval crews, and how they sailed, fought and lived aboard a warship like Victory.

  • The amount of detail and the amount of information packed into this documentary blew me away. Had me hooked every second, I can't believe it was free.
  • I’m now realizing how much engineering it took to make these ships
  • @ReconPro
    Have a great weekend everyone ❤😊
  • @SgtMjr
    We need another "Master & Commander" film.
  • @dezze1021
    I’m lucky to live only 10 miles from where Victory sits in dry dock and have visited it many times since I was young. Such an incredible piece of British History, its a shame she isn’t still seaworthy.
  • For the age this ship and attention to detail really is the naval transportation and combat at it's best. Makes you wonder how many mistakes and accidents it took to perfect a ship like this. Amazing attention to detail Epic History TV
  • Such a massive ship, 3000 trees, more weight of shot than in Wellington's entire army. I can't believe she was only expected to last 18 years!

    If you ever go to Portsmouth definitely visit the ship! The Tudor Mary Rose is also on display with a fantastic collection of artefacts. Seeing where Nelson was first shot & then died is a really strange & moving experience: you try to imagine being there at the time, with the terrible noise of battle, the smoke, the injured & dead. Standing on the deck in the sunshine, hundreds of years later, is surreal.
  • As a Maltese and coming from a family of a sea fairing tradition, I enjoyed this video very much……Thank you.
  • @rvrrunner
    Fantastic video! I spent 2 weeks in London in 2005 on business. My only day off was spent in Portsmouth touring the HMS Victory. It was the highlight of my UK visit.

    It was an epic visit during our vacation in southern England, along with many more museums and historical sites. My father - who is a naval enthusiast - was particularily smitten with Portsmouth and the Royal Navy Dockyard. Regard to everyone dedicated to preserving history and for showing all in all kindness, enthusiasm and friendship while our visit. Best Regards from Germany, and keep up the good work!

    Happy Trafalgar day! Was expecting the trafalgar video to be published today but this sure as hell also serves the purpose!
  • I have seen few videos that can match the quality of this one. The narrative, the graphics, the scope are just top notch!
  • @2394Joseph
    Visiting HMS Victory in Portsmouth dockyard was one of the most memorable and worthwhile experiences of my very long life.
  • @heathclark318
    This gives me goosebumps and I am not even British!!! I am only a few minutes in... My hats off to you Brits! That is STILL one helluva ship! From a Southern Rebel!!!
  • @CyberUK
    Amazing video - even the BBC would have been very proud to have made a video of this quality. Epic History TV continue to lead the way on historical content. Thank you so much @Epic History TV - more than deserving of the name.
  • After watching Master and Commander, I read the books, which then lead me to Uthred of Babinburg. What a wonderful literary and historical journey. I'm very grateful for it.
  • @uponiagaming
    it's nice to get the full video of HMS Victory 218 years to the day she won at Trafalgar.
  • @omcara1
    WoW!!! Having served in the U.S. Navy, I really want to go and see this great ship personally. It's on my bucket list for sure. 👍
