This sunken container became big news
0:02
after local researchers discovered the
0:04
weird metallic object on the bottom of
0:06
the ocean. On the surface, it looked
0:08
like a standard shipping container, but
0:10
inside it held a massive secret. So,

0:20
stories. It was no accident that the
0:22
container was found on this particular
0:24
day. Coast Guard buoys measured
0:26
large-scale disturbances in the waters
0:29
and sonar reports kept coming in. Only
0:32
something extremely heavy dropping down
0:34
into the ocean could cause this and
0:36
Captain Izzy Barkley's team was tasked
0:39
with investigating the tremors. The buoy
0:42
that detected the most tremors was about
0:44
20 m from shore. When Izzy and her team
0:47
arrived at the scene, they got straight
0:48
to work. Izzy was also the main
0:51
researcher, so it was customary for her
0:53
to dive down first. There was a massive
0:56
shipping container present at the bottom
0:58
of the ocean, and it was obvious that
1:00
Izzy could not lift the metal object out
1:02
of the water with her bare hands. So,
1:04
when Izzy resurfaced, she quickly
1:06
ordered the ship's diving robot to take
1:08
over. Luckily, they didn't just leave
1:11
their research facility with just any
1:13
vessel. No, their ship had high-end
1:16
equipment, which Izzy was qualified to
1:18
use. So, with Izzy's orders in place,
1:21
her colleagues prepared the drone to
1:22
delve down deep. As the drone was
1:25
lowered into the water, Izzy took over
1:27
the controls, and the exciting part of
1:30
this mission could commence. The water
1:32
was calm and clear, making it easy to
1:34
navigate toward the container at the
1:36
bottom. But reaching the object would
1:38
not turn out to be the tricky part. Once
1:40
the vessel was reached, it was time for
1:43
the machine to start lifting. It
1:45
attached its extending claws around the
1:48
container's sides. From that point on,
1:51
the ship simply had to pull in the
1:53
robot. But this turned out to be more
1:56
difficult than expected. The container
1:58
was unexpectedly heavy. Their ship's
2:01
crane was capable of lifting massive
2:03
objects. But somehow, this simple
2:05
shipping container made their machine
2:07
work extremely hard for it. The entire
2:10
boat rocked back and forth and even took
2:12
on some water while lifting the metal
2:14
box out of the water. With much effort
2:16
and a few nervous faces, they eventually
2:18
managed to lift the mysterious container
2:20
out of the water. With a loud bang, it
2:22
landed on the deck of their ship, and
2:24
the entire crew immediately rushed in to
2:26
inspect the exciting find. However, the
2:29
one who was truly intrigued was Izzy
2:31
herself because she noticed something
2:32
that alluded to her colleagues. A
2:35
shipping container wasn't usually
2:36
watertight. So when lifted off the ocean
2:39
floor, one might expect water to leak
2:41
out of every hole. But somehow that
2:44
wasn't the case here. Somehow this plain
2:46
looking shipping container was insulated
2:48
like it was designed to keep every drop
2:50
of water out. The team's deck workers
2:52
who formed the cruise muscle had already
2:54
started pulling on the door handle.
2:56
Everybody awaited Izzy's command. After
2:59
a few deep breaths, she decided that it
3:00
was time. The large bolt cutter. The
3:03
main lock on the container was cut off
3:05
and afterward the doors handles were
3:07
pulled aside. When the door was fully
3:10
opened, everyone was stunned by the
3:12
bizarre discovery inside the metallic
3:14
vessel. Izzy, the most shocked of all,
3:16
left her crane post and moved toward the
3:18
container. Silent and wideeyed, she
3:21
stepped past her crew and entered the
3:23
mysterious space, carefully scanning
3:25
every inch of it. Izzy's finger ran over
3:28
every item inside the container. Some
3:30
objects were made of wood and others
3:32
were covered in fabric. Confusion grew
3:35
increasingly inside her mind. She turned
3:38
around and looked at her crew. Nobody
3:39
said anything at first. They had
3:41
discussed the container's possible
3:43
contents, but nobody expected this. Izzy
3:46
was the first to break the silence. What
3:48
is this? Did someone live here? Her
3:51
voice was drenched in disbelief because
3:53
the contents were weirdly homely. The
3:55
inside of the container was fully
3:57
furnished. There was a bed, couch,
3:59
closet, and table with chairs. It had
4:02
everything any regular household had.
4:04
Has any of you ever seen anything like
4:06
this? Izzy asked her colleagues. But
4:08
everyone in the group shared the same
4:10
disbelief and confusion about the
4:12
bizarre finding. Izzy was surprised not
4:15
only by the fact that the container was
4:16
fully furnished, but also by the fact
4:19
that everything was still somewhat in
4:20
place. They quickly discovered that
4:22
everything was nailed to the floor.
4:25
However, some loose items were scattered
4:27
on the ground, and they found photos of
4:29
a man and his family. They searched
4:31
every inch of the container, but didn't
4:33
find anything that got them closer to
4:35
the truth. Izzy let out a frustrated
4:37
sigh and was about to give up. One of
4:39
Izzy's colleagues suddenly let out an
4:41
excited yell. When she turned around,
4:44
she could see him holding up a plastic
4:45
Ziploc bag. But what sparked his
4:48
excitement was what was inside it. Some
4:50
sort of recorder. Izzy rushed toward him
4:52
and carefully grabbed the bag. Maybe
4:55
this could give them some answers. Izzy
4:58
handled the bag cautiously, anxious any
5:00
wrong movement might cause it to break
5:02
or ruin any recording inside. Izzy
5:04
immediately noticed that the device was
5:06
still dry. This was a good indication,
5:09
and she pressed play with good faith. It
5:12
was a male voice, probably from the man
5:14
in the pictures. This was great. It was
5:17
hard to understand the recording out in
5:18
the middle of the ocean, so the group
5:20
quickly moved inside. At first, it was
5:23
mostly background noise, but then the
5:25
voice sounded clear. I need to record
5:27
this before they notice we are here and
5:29
capture us. It responded to someone in
5:31
the background. The voice sounded
5:34
panicked, making the first spoken
5:36
sentence in the recording very ominous.
5:38
And then the man cleared his throat and
5:40
introduced himself as Ahmed Osman. I
5:43
hope someone will find the container in
5:44
this recording and is able to help. The
5:47
recording suddenly fell silent. Izzy
5:49
looked at her colleagues who all shared
5:51
the same look, a look of pure disbelief
5:53
and confusion. The message sounded
5:56
disturbing and they wanted to help this
5:58
person. But how? Then the recording
6:01
suddenly continued. Izzy moved closer to
6:04
hear what the voice said. We are in
6:06
desperate need of assistance. We are on
6:08
the ever cargo voyager, but I don't know
6:11
for how long. Please save us. The tone
6:14
of the man got more and more desperate.
6:17
The room fell silent. They were all
6:19
speechless. Everybody realized something
6:22
terrible had happened to the people the
6:24
container belonged to. The ship had been
6:26
cited multiple times, but only seemed to
6:29
dock for a short while each time. It
6:31
only refueled and moved minimal cargo,
6:34
even though it was filled with
6:35
containers. Izzy frowned inside. Why
6:39
would a ship with shipping containers
6:41
dock so few times and not load its
6:43
containers? This odd behavior greatly
6:46
confused Izzy and raised some red flags.
6:49
She discussed it with her colleagues who
6:51
agreed that something suspicious was
6:53
happening with that ship. Izzy reviewed
6:56
the log database again, hoping to find
6:58
more information about the vessel. she
7:01
exclaimed when she noticed its last seen
7:04
location. The weird reports in the log
7:06
database and the ominous recording were
7:08
enough for Izzy to try to track down the
7:10
ship. The location the vessel was last
7:13
seen wasn't too far away, so they could
7:15
be there soon, and if they interpreted
7:18
the man in the recording correctly, time
7:20
was of the essence. Izzy ensured
7:23
everyone aboard was on the same page and
7:26
was happy to see everyone share her
7:28
concern about the situation. She gave
7:30
the captain the coordinates of the
7:32
ship's last known location. Once they
7:34
arrived, they were surprised to see the
7:37
vessel floating 20ks from the coast.
7:40
Even though Izzy and her colleagues were
7:41
curious to find out what was happening,
7:44
they were also anxious to get close. The
7:46
recording sounded very menacing and they
7:49
agreed that this wasn't just a job for
7:51
them. They needed help. I will signal
7:54
the Coast Guard and police, Izzy said
7:56
resolutely. Izzy ensured that when the
7:59
Coast Guard arrived with the police,
8:00
they were out of the cargo ship's line
8:02
of sight. Once the officers were aboard,
8:05
she quickly explained the situation and
8:07
told them what they had heard on the
8:08
recording. She was relieved that the
8:10
police believed her and took it very
8:12
seriously. But there was one major
8:15
problem. Given the reports about the
8:17
ships, it was safe to assume they docked
8:19
shortly to keep people from seeing what
8:22
they were up to. If they saw the
8:24
officers approaching, they would surely
8:27
not let them aboard. They needed a plan.
8:30
And luckily, Izzy thought of something.
8:33
The police officers could lend some of
8:34
the research crews clothing and approach
8:37
the ship in disguise. They were less
8:39
likely to turn away a group of
8:40
scientists. "You can say we're
8:43
investigating fish migration in the area
8:45
and that their ship is in prime position
8:47
to do some readings," Izzy said. Izzy
8:50
felt her heart pound against her chest
8:52
as she and two police officers
8:53
approached the container ship. The trio
8:55
used a small dingy stored on the back of
8:58
the research vessel to cross the
8:59
distance. When they got close, Izzy
9:02
requested entry on the ship and they
9:04
immediately realized things were off.
9:06
The captain didn't immediately invite
9:08
them on. Izzy had to make some real
9:11
effort to convince the man she and the
9:13
officers were scientists. Meanwhile, the
9:15
captain gave orders to his workers, and
9:17
there was a lot of activity on the ship.
9:19
They had been waiting for half an hour
9:21
when they got their response. The
9:23
workers on the ship let down a ladder so
9:25
the trio could climb aboard. The captain
9:28
greeted them gruffly when they were
9:29
finally up on the deck. "You have 1
9:31
hour," he said, after which he ordered
9:34
everyone back to work. Izzy smiled and
9:37
tried her best to act like she was
9:39
making recordings. Izzy and the officers
9:42
walked over the ship trying to discover
9:44
what was going on while acting as
9:46
inconspicuously as possible, but there
9:49
was nothing that indicated anything was
9:51
wrong. They probably used the last half
9:53
hour to conceal any evidence. Out of
9:56
desperation, Izzy started to whisper the
9:59
man's name. Then, suddenly, one of the
10:01
containers beside them opened up and
10:03
they were pulled inside, after which the
10:06
door closed again.
10:08
The trio was surprised to see that the
10:10
container was filled with people. But
10:13
the container wasn't only filled with
10:15
people. This one was furnished like the
10:17
container they had pulled out of the
10:18
ocean. "Who are you?" a man demanded.
10:22
Izzy immediately recognized him from the
10:24
pictures and the recording. She stepped
10:26
forward and explained who they were and
10:28
that they found his recording. Ahmed's
10:31
expression immediately cleared up. He
10:33
shook their hands excitedly and let out
10:35
a sigh of relief. Ahmed explained that
10:38
he and all the others were looking for
10:39
passage to a safe country. He heard
10:42
rumors about a ship taking people aboard
10:44
and doing just that. But once he was on
10:47
board, things changed. In return for the
10:50
journey, I had to work on the ship for 1
10:53
year. But but they kept extending that
10:56
period, never letting me get ashore.
10:59
I've been here for 2 years, but some of
11:01
these people have lived here much
11:03
longer. Everyone lived inside containers
11:06
like this and the captain and crew
11:08
exploited them. But the crew quickly
11:10
found out I was the reason behind the
11:12
uprising and took drastic measures to
11:14
stop it. Ahmed sighed. He explained they
11:18
threw his container overboard, removing
11:20
and destroying his home in the process.
11:23
But before they could, he was able to
11:25
hide a message inside, hoping someone
11:28
would find it. When Ahmed finished his
11:30
explanation, the container was filled
11:33
with silence. Izzy and the officers
11:35
couldn't believe what they had just
11:37
heard. This was far worse than they
11:40
could have imagined. The ship was filled
11:42
with families who were exploited and
11:44
falsely imprisoned. They had to do
11:46
something about it and fast. Now that
11:48
the police knew what was going on, they
11:50
took action. They asked Ahmed how many
11:53
crew members the ship had and if they
11:55
could put up much of a fight. Backup was
11:58
called once they had a complete picture
12:00
and a surprise raid was planned and it
12:03
worked to perfection. Due to the
12:06
surprise attack, the ship's crew was
12:08
quickly arrested. With the criminals
12:11
were in custody, the Coast Guard took
12:13
control of the ship. Meanwhile, Izzy
12:15
helped Ahmed free all the families, and
12:18
not much later, the boat docked at the
12:20
nearest city. It didn't take long for
12:22
the media to pick up the story. It
12:25
became a nationwide story and Izzy
12:27
followed it closely as she returned home
12:29
after the city took control of the
12:31
support. She was glad to see the
12:33
situation had a good outcome and
12:35
incredibly happy she played a part in
12:37
it. Thank you so much for watching. If
