The Head-On Maneuver: How One Captain Survived Krakatoa's Tsunami

The untold story of the Head-On Maneuver—the naval tactic that saved 111 lives during Krakatoa's August 27, 1883 eruption. We reconstruct Captain Johan Lindemann's 18-hour ordeal aboard the steamship Governor-General Loudon: the liquid concrete rain burying the deck, St. Elmo's Fire turning the ship into a giant Tesla coil, and the physics behind his controversial "living ballast" decision. This briefing explains the critical sequence: locking all passengers in the hold to lower the center of gravity, cutting the anchor chain at 10:02 AM, and charging bow-first into a 12-story tsunami wave—a maneuver that violated every maritime regulation but is now taught in naval academies worldwide. We analyze the fate of the nearby gunboat Berouw—found 2 miles inland, suspended 30 feet in jungle trees—to demonstrate the lethal cost of the wrong tactical choice. Discussion: Would modern naval doctrine recommend the same maneuver today?
