Video Description

Purchase shares in great masterpieces from artists like Pablo Picasso, Banksy, Andy Warhol, and more: https://www.masterworks.art/calum In 1931, the SS Baychimo, a cargo ship owned by the Hudson Bay Company, became trapped in the ice off Point Barrow, Alaska. Despite her crews efforts to free her, she eventually vanished into the frozen arctic sea. However that would be the end of the sturdy, Swedish ship. She would go on to roam the Arctic Ocean for decades, appearing occasionally from the mist and still trapped within the ice. But what happened to the Baychimo, and where is she now? Oh, and thanks @Mattiaskrantz for the pronunciation help! I'd highly recommend the book 'Baychimo' by Anthony Dalton.
