There’s Danger Here

The Edmund Fitzgerald


Listen Later

November 10th 1975, a storm swept across Lake Superior. By the end of the night, one ship was at the bottom of the lake. She didn't call out in distress and the ship 10 miles behind lost radar of it in seconds. The one ship that set multiple records in the preceding years was gone along with the 29 men aboard. Growing around the lakes, the story has become legend and all those know about the loss of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
