When life gets hard, I stop and think about how easy we have it these days.

Not only do we have infinite knowledge at our fingertips,

we can order any food we're craving to arrive at our doorstep within an hour.

Need a dress for the weekend, it'll be here by tomorrow afternoon.

But the one that I really take for granted is the ease that comes with travel nowadays.

You can literally log on, book a flight anywhere in the world, and be on a plane by midnight.

Pretty darn incredible, right?

Especially because 100 years ago, traveling across the world on the fly, was inconceivable.

If you needed some imported goods or passage from one continent to another, chances were you needed a boat.

You had to plan, prep, and hunker down for a long journey with countless dangers to stress about.

I mean, if you think you have anxiety through TSA, I can promise you there was no pre-check in the early 1900s.

Even making it to your destination was a total crapshoot.

But you figure, if the boat gets there in one piece, there is a good chance you will too.

That is unless you were aboard the Carol A. Deering.

When this commercial ship arrived on the shores of North Carolina in 1921, it was in pretty good shape.

But every single member aboard the vessel was missing without any concrete indication of where they'd gone. Was it pirates, mutiny? Or were

there other dangers lurking at sea that haven't even been discovered yet?

This is a mystery that still prevails to this day.

And by the end of this episode, I think you'll be more than happy to spend that 30 minutes going through airport security.
