The Battle of Jutland on May 31, 1916, was the largest naval battle of World War I, pitting 151 British warships against 99 German vessels in the North Sea off Denmark's coast. This 50-second documentary breakdown covers the catastrophic magazine explosions of HMS Indefatigable and HMS Queen Mary, which killed over 3,300 British sailors in less than 30 minutes due to inadequate armor design. The battle resulted in 8,645 total casualties across both fleets, with Britain losing 14 ships and Germany losing 11, creating a tactical stalemate that paradoxically secured British strategic dominance. Despite suffering heavier losses, the Royal Navy maintained its critical blockade of Germany, and the German High Seas Fleet never again sought major engagement for the remainder of WWI. This short covers the key facts, ship losses, casualty figures, and long-term strategic consequences of history's last great battleship duel.
