The ghost ship that shook Europe, what is reality?

It was a time when European countries were dominating other countries. Captain Vander Decken worked for the Dutch East India Company.

The captain had a very demonic nature that no one else could predict. He was on a voyage to Amsterdam aboard the Flying Dutchman that day. There were many passengers on that ship. The captain intends to relocate Dutch passengers near the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. Soon it started to rain heavily. Then they saw a shore from afar. The ship began to approach the shore. But that has happen.

A great storm came up on the ship. It was becoming an atmosphere of terror. Immediately, the other sailors on board asked the captain to return the ship. But the captain's reply came as a shock to them.

If the world ends, the ship will not turn, and the ship will go ashore.

They do not understand why the captain made such a decision. The captain's response was he were very angry with someone. But leaving the ship straight was not as easy as the captain thought. They tried a lot but the force of the storm was getting stronger for hours. The ship slowly began to sink. Seeing all this, the passengers were mentally exhausted. The passengers were all scared.

After a while all the passengers came to the captain's side. They all cried and asked the captain to turn the ship around. But the captain still had no intention of changing his decision. He just sat there trying to dock the ship. Hours passed and the storm was no less.

At the same time, the captain had an argument with a sailor on the ship. The dispute was over the diversion of the ship. But the controversy was not limited to one word. At the end of the dispute, the captain killed the sailor. Then he threw the corpse into the sea. All this was happening in front of other passengers. The passengers did not know what to do. The ship was going to be like hell.

Days later

There was still no shortage of storms. Most of the passengers were sitting dead. Some jumped into the sea and died.

No one understood why the captain was doing this.

He was becoming a monster heard only in stories.

He was still sitting on the ship trying to get ashore.

18th century.

The British Royal Naval Ship HMS is sailing across the Pacific Ocean. Prince George V served as the ship's midshipman. It must have been a 7 o'clock in the morning. An employee of the ship was sitting outside. He was enjoying the calm sound of the sea. Suddenly it catches his attention.

A small green light came on from a distance. He immediately began to look at the binoculars in his hand.

But what he saw through the binoculars was shocking.

He saw a large ship standing high in the air. He immediately called the other people on board to show it. It was early in the morning and not everyone was awake, but about 13 people came to see. So they all saw that horrible sight. But they could not stand it any longer. Within seconds, the ship sank into the clouds. The ship hid in fear from those who were standing there.

But they later learned that this was just the beginning.

The ship's passengers woke up the next day to the news of a death. The young man who first saw the horrible sight of that ship was dead. He died after falling from the upper deck of the ship. That one incident caused a huge shock among the passengers. Discussions began there about the ship. They could not figure out what ship they had seen.

On 1835

A British ship was sailing across the sea. Suddenly someone on the ship saw the sight. But in an instant, the ship disappeared. Later, people began to see the ship several times.

In 1939, people at Glencairn Beach in Cape Town came across such a sight. But that too soon disappeared. All such incidents created a great deal of fear in the minds of the people. Doubts began to rise among them as to what the ship was.

That's when an incident that happened years ago comes to people's minds.

Could this be a Flying Dutchman who was caught in a storm in the 17th century and could not get out of the storm?

Will the ship and the captain of the ship still be stranded without salvation?

Gradually those stories began to spread among the people. For those who go to sea, the fear of the flying Dutchman began to become a dream. They believed that those who saw the ship during the voyage would be in great danger.

The last reported sighting of a flying Dutchman was during World War II. According to the report, the sailors of a German ship saw the sight. It was the ship of Karl Donitz. They saw the ship during a voyage. They too could not look at the ship for long.

Later, some films were made based on this ship. In the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean", the Flying Dutch captain is portrayed as a man with the face of an octopus.

The 1951 film "Pandora & the Flying Dutchman" was also based on this incident.

So what do you think?

What could be the secret behind that Ghost Ship?

Will the Flying Dutchman still wander through the sea without salvation?

Anyway, at least I didn't go down without explaining myself first.

So, if you look at the situation, the secret behind it.

No... the science behind it...

Stories of the Flying Dutchman began to spread in the 17th century. There are about 4 types of stories that exist. The first story of this narration is just one of them. But there is nothing supernatural in that story. So let's leave the story for now.

People have been seeing this ghost ship since the 18th century. It may be true that they saw. Because a lot of people saw that ship in a different times.

But how can they be sure that all the ships they saw were Flying Dutchmen?

What if they saw other ships?

That is, those who saw it claimed to have seen a ship standing high in the air. But they could not confirm that what they saw was a 17th century ship. Then we can confirm that it is not a Flying Dutchman for the time being. But we still have a problem.

Why did they see the ship in the air? Why not see in the sea?

This is how science comes in.

All these problems are caused by the movement of light. Suppose a ship is on the edge of the earth's horizon from where we are. Normally we can't see that ship. On the contrary, the surface temperature of the sea is very low. But just above that it is more. Thus when light travels at different temperatures the light may become bent. That is how the bent light comes to our eyes. The light comes as a bent but we do not know it. In our eyes, there is an illusion that it is coming straight. This phenomenon is called Fata Morgana. So this is probably what happened there too. This is not a phenomenon that happens all the time. It is caused by a combination of certain temperatures and wind patterns.

So whether the Flying Dutchman story is true or not is a question in history. But it is also a fact that people have not seen Flying Dutchman.
