Incredible But True? "The True Story of the Philadelphia Experiment"
Robert Goerman, author of Himmler's War appeared on The History Channel's show Incredible But True? "The True Story of the Philadelphia Experiment." In 1943, a warship was rendered invisible in the Philadelphia Naval Yard, then teleported instantly to Norfolk, Virginia, and back. But this technological breakthrough was achieved at such horrific human cost -- crewmen missing or gone insane, dead sailors fused into bulkheads--that authorities deep-sixed the experiment. Or so goes the legend that still flourishes. We examine this tallest of seaman's tales and learn how real anti-submarine technology led to talk of "disappearing ships". The show aired on Wednesday, November 13 at 8:00 PM, Thursday, November 14 at 12:00 AM and Sunday, November 17 at 12:00 PM.
