Not likely, Southampton UK to New York is more likely.
Michael McKinnon well that’s not the route the titanic took
the route Titanic woukd've hve gone if it didn't sink
Violet Jessop: *survives the titanic sinking*
Also Violet Jessop: *gets a job on another ship*
Violet got on all 3sister ships and.all 3 had at sea disasters and she survived all 3.
Yea. Really bad luck though. At least she survived the wrecks of Titanic, Britannic, and Olympic.
@@iamtwo9933 Bad luck? She survived three huge disasters. That's very good luck if you ask me.

Mister X are you talking about me? It’s a joke
well flextape was invented because Titanic sank, so it would never happen again.
I knew way too much about the Titanic in elementary school. A kid should not know as much about an event that happened in 1912 as I did. I became obsessed with reading about it after watching the movie.
That’s currently going on with me rn
Same here, i loved it in elementary school. My love for the ship was reignited after the sub issue
For me it was WW2 specifically the Holocaust. I also knew way too much about the titanic

I was watching jeopardy a few days ago and the final jeopardy question was basically, “what ship rescued the remaining passengers from the Titanic?” And ALL three contestants got it wrong..honestly I thought the Carpathia was common knowledge but I guess not...
did they confused carpathia with Californian
shaoni banerjee one person said the Lusitania, another said the Britannic, and the last person said something else, but it wasn’t the Californian. Good guesses, but then again that’s like saying 2+2 is either 3 or 5.

But well done for actually showing him at 24:53.
He used the wrong Britannic 1:43

"We'll go down as gentlemen..!"
WOW!!!👍
Titanic was the first member of the cinematic billion dollar club. Sorry Endgame even u cant change that fact.
But in today money, after the inflation, Titanic made 3,6 billion (2,2billion in 1997) which is 800 million more than the Endgame.
Thankyou for mentioning the musicians that went down with the ship, my great great grandad was the violinist and lead the others and kept them calm whilst they went down. The last song he played was his favourite song
That was one of the most epic moments thy captured in the movie and it was fascinating me as a kid because I never seemed to understand why they would start to play in this situation.
Amazing!
Wow sorry for your loss he's in a good place now
Was it actually Nearer My God to Thee? Just curious.
They were very brave musicians
The flying titanic gets me every time😂😂😂😂😂😂
When he said "the Olympic, the Britannic, and big boat boi" I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe XD
Literally sounds like you say “GREETINGS MOTHERFUCKERS” in the beginning
Austin P it does
It’s MOTHERFACTORS
Fun fact: Titanic sank the same day when the first North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung was born.
- John Jacob Astor, Isidor Strauss and Benjamin Guggenheim had all ancestors or were born in a German speaking country.
-The German ship Frankfurt also got an SOS from the Titanic and another German ship the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria passed the Field were the Titanic sank just one day after the sinking. It reported lots of corpses and things from the ship swimming around.
Wow, I’ve never heard the last fact before… not so fun though🥲
“After it got shanked by an iceberg” let’s just acknowledge this statement
I pre-purchased all the seats on Titanic II and am going to fill them all with VHS copies of Titanic.
I've always had a deep fascination on this subject. My Mom's birthday is April 15th, the day the Titanic sank (obviously not in the same year though). However, my birthday is September 1st, 1985, which is the exact day Ballard discovered the wreck. I know that this holds much less significance than I tend to place on it, but I've always found that pretty cool.
Now that’s what I call a coincidence. Have you seen James Cameron’s masterpiece, _Titanic?_
1:34 that isn't J Bruce Ismay, that portrait is of his father.
Sam Jones yah I was wondering that
Yea
Bonus Fact: The Titanics pool are still full.
I know this joke is unoriginal.
LMAO.. Oh it's still Sooooo funny even after the first 6,000 times I've heard it.. 🙄
The lower class pools probably are filled with sand due to about half the ship being buried in it.
St. JoplinTM There were no lower class pools, there was only one pool on Titanic and only 1st class could access it

They should rebuild the titanic and make it into a museum of the titanic with all the interior from 1st class to 3rd class from beds to chairs and pictures out of newspapers
Yes!!
There are at least four titanic museums
“Shanked by an iceberg” is now my favourite line in history
Why did you use shitty stock footage when there are photographs of many of the things you were talking about.
You even reiterate facts on screen.
What's even worse is the picture at 1:37 isn't even J Bruce Ismay! It's Thomas Ismay the father of J Bruce Ismay. Even more worse is the picture at 1:43 isn't the sister ship to the RMS Titanic. It's a motor ship called the MV Britannic or the Britannic III, instead of the Britannic II or HMHS Britannic which is the White Star Sister Ship of the RMS Titanic.
They got some Yellow Journalism going on here!

Ladies and gentlemen! Fact 21 is proof of time travel!
Somebody traveled back to prevent the titanic to sail, but a tugboat ruined it all.
Maybe not
I really hope you are joking
Joey Knight no im dead serious
: )
Mhmm
The person in the tug boat could have also been a time traveler coz if the titanic didnt sink something might have changed in the future which was bad so he needed it to sink so that the bad thing wouldn't happen in the future. If that's true there was at least 2 time travelers and it could have possibly been the same person from different time zones( mind blown)
First, I must say, even with all the inaccuracies in this video, it's one of the most accurate Fact videos on Titanic I have ever seen in my over 26 years of studying Titanic. Props @101Facts Now here's a breakdown of everything you didn't quite get right. :)
#01: True
#02: True, @01:37 Image is not Ismay
#03: True
#04: Slight inaccuracy, Length 882' 9", Beam 92' 6"
#05: True
#06: Animation inaccuracy: Watertight bulkheads animated too high. WTB's only came up to E Deck.
#07: True, I would like to add emphasis that it was the media that said it was unsinkable.
#08: True, Thought some will argue the 'S' in RMS stands for Steamer, it does stand for ship.
#09: Inaccurate, True, there was 246 injuries, 28 of which were serious but there were 8 deaths during construction, not 2.
#10: True
#11: True
#12: True

#24: True
#25: True
#26: False, Titanic carried 2,208. 1,317 passengers and 891 crew.
#27: True
#28: True
#29: True, again, not an image of Ismay and although a joke I'm sure, Andrews was not on "vaycay"
#30: True, exact number of third class 709
#31: True ish... Captain Smith was known as the millionaires captain, Titanic being known as Millionaires Special was more advertising slogan than nickname.
#32: True
#33: Numerous inaccuracies, 3,400 kilos of bacon and ham not 1,800, 2,500 sausages not 40,000, 11,000 kilos of game and poultry not 34,000, 2,700 kilos, not sticks, of butter & no partridge in a pair tree. :)
#34: True
#35: True
#36: True
#37: True
#38: Misleading, any message with prefaced with "MSG", Masters' Service Gram, would take priority and be sent directly to the captain.
#39: Mostly true, the Californian was more than "a few" kilometers away. More like 15-20 miles.
#40: Mostly true, calm sea is not a telltale sign of ice
#41: True but... if Fleet had had binoculars, he wouldn't have used them until he spotted something with his naked eye. Binoculars in a cross nest would only be used to confirm something seen with the naked eye and not for scanning the horizon.
#42: True
#43: True
#44: True
#45: False, damage was to her first 5 compartments, not 6. Actual "experts" would agree hitting the iceberg head on would actually have done more damage and she could have sank faster.
#46: True
#47: True
#48: Mostly true, the loading of the lifeboats was less organized than it could have been if drills were performed but there wasn't much chaos until the final 20-30 minutes
#49: True

#51: False, lifeboat 7 was launched carrying 28 people not 27. A total of 712 people were rescued not 705.
#52: True
#53: True
#54: True but miss worded. There is testimony suggesting Nearer My God to Thee was the last song played. There is no conflicting testimony only testimony of people who couldn't recollect what was played last.
#55: True
#56: Mixed, lifeboat 1 was launched at 1:05, not 2:05. She was launched with only 12 on board.
#57: Mostly true, Titanic broke in two within seconds of the lights going out, not minutes.
#58: Mostly true, The stern listed and twisted to the port side while sinking but did not reach a near vertical position.
#59: True but... the stern, sinking at 30mph, would reach the bottom in just under 5 minutes, not 10.
#60: True
#61: Mostly true, one testimony places Andrews in the First Class Smoking room, but that was quite some time before the ship sank. At least 3 people places Andrews with Smith on the bridge just before it went under and one claims they both jumped into the water together.
#62: True, but there is no evidence anyone was bribed. This is one of the dozens of rumors started by passengers gossiping while on the Carpathia.
#63: True
#64: True
#65: Somewhat false, Isidor Straus asked to join his wife in lifeboat 8 but was not allowed, in turn, Ida refused to get in and leave her husband.
#66: True
#67: Unknown, Jougin testified he swam for 2 hours but most likely it had only felt like 2 hours but was in reality much less.
#68: True
#69: True
#70: True

#75: True
#76: True
#77: True
#78: True
#79: True
#80: Somewhat false, If the Californian would have started for Titanic when the first signal rocket sighted, they still would have arrived after she sank and only would have picked up the survivors a little sooner. No more lives would have been saved.
#81: True
#82: True
#83: Mostly true, there were more than 2 photos
#84: True
#85: True
#86: True
#87: True
#88: True
#89: True
#90: True
#91: True
#92: Unknown, some say 2030, some said it should have already collapsed. Fact is, there will always be remnants of Titanic on the sea floor and will be recognizable for hundreds of years.
#93: True
#94: True
#95: True, but the menu was not recovered from the sea floor.
#96: True, but the locker was not in the crows nest and again, binoculars would not have helped.
#97: True
#98: True
#99: True
#100: True
#101: FALSE... There is no Titanic 2 and there never will be. It is only a political scheme.
Thank goodness you saved us all from being victims of (some) inaccurate facts. :)
You are most welcome. ;)
I can’t speak to the accuracy of building a ship called Titanic 2, but there was a truly terrible movie released 9 years ago called “Titanic II” with a similar premise. Build a ship virtually identical to the original with a few updates, call it Titanic II, and sail it across the Atlantic on the course plotted for the original ship.
Thank you David xx
Speaking about the damage, it *was* in her first 6 compartments. Peak tank, 3 holds, and boiler room 5 and 6.
Luckily my great grandfather was late for the titanic so he didnt get on board he considered himself the luckiest man alive
Has he kept his boarding ticket? If I were him, I would have framed it, and passed it down my family, as a symbol that God does indeed exist, and that he's looking out for this family.
@@jayive34 sadly he threw away his boarding ticket after he missed the boat and didnt realise it sank til' the newspaper came out
@@JeremyC574 Well, he had no way to know what would happen. Why would he keep a ticket that's no longer usable?

"And then it floated down the coast of Canada till a group of humans rudely rammed into it in 1912." I lost it lol
1:35 that is not a photo of J. Bruce Ismay, that was a photo of his father, Thomas Henry Ismay
I feel like recreating the ship and taking the same voyage is gonna be proof of history repeating itself
The Titanic and it's sister ships were classy and elegantly grand , they don'take them like that anymore , modern cruise ships look too bulky and looks like someone just slapped a hotel on them lol
I also forgot You need 101 facts about Jennifer Lawrence
That photo is NOT J. Bruce Ismay. Do a little research, guys.
you need to know only one fact about Jennifer Lawrence she's dam lovely for the eyes
Extra Facts for anyone who wants to know...
Titanic had an internal Fire That weakened one of the bulkheads.
Edit: Thanks to the good replies by the experts and to anyone seeing this its only a hypothesis and few things have been pieced together. So far its a theory but not probably in the realm where The names of The Olympic and Titanic Switch.
i knew that and it's a ashamed they cared too much about money and ego than safety
That's been debunked multiple times. The bulkhead gave way due to excessive amounts of water passing the design limit. The combination of the first 5 compartments being flooded was overwhelming to the ships safety systems and structural limits with nothing to hold up the bulkhead on it's other side.
@@centralcrossing4732 Oh thx for the correction
@@agentc8542 Your welcome.
The fire had no effect on the sinking whatsoever. Google "titanic fire and ice or what you will" and give it a read. That research article thoroughly debunks that theory.
The fourth funnel created negative pressure inside the ship, allowing for a cleaner exterior. Most ocean liners before the Olympic class had big ugly air ram holes to force air into the bowels of the ship. This way, the fresh air found its way in more naturally and allowed for a cleaner looking deck
I feel like the part that really hurts is when the elderly couple are laying on the bed as the water starts rushing in. That part really hurts
I was once watching the film with my uncle and he told me he had never seen it, told him "spoiler alert, the ship sinks"
Edit: I would like to think he was surprised.
There is a video on here somewhere. There was something about the way the ocean was that night there was a mirage or something that made the other ship appear to be closer than it was. It messed with the other ship too. They also used the wrong color flares to signal distress.
3:39 idk why but that edit there made me LOSE it
Love how in fact 2 they diddnt even use a picture of the Britannic to represent her...
Also the video of the Titanic under water used in the movie was filmed by James Cameroon himself. He legit went down in a submarine to film the Titanic. That's true dedication!
He only did the the movie because he wanted to see the shipwreck
Engineers: the Titanic is virtually unsinkable!
Ice berg: *hold my beer!*
The ships engineers did not say thet the ship is unsinkable but the news papers did and the people did the engineers said she would not sink if 4 of her compartments would be damaged, but she damaged 6
@@Yassified3425 they specifically said the FIRST 4, just saying
no they said anywhere on the ship
@@Yassified3425 how would that be possible, get the bulkhead map, they vary in with and height so if the widest 4 were breached, it would be a bit too heavy and the water would spill over the bulkhead so, you are wrong, even google it
Ik thet in the middle of the ship they go only to E Deck, but in the middle the ship could breach 5 compartments and stay aflot because the back and front of the ship will keep it afloat.
There was a book written called futility or wreck of the Titan, written before the titanic it’s about a ship called the Titan that sunk when crossing the Atlantic and had struck an iceberg, suffered great loss of life due to not enough lifeboats
Yeah it's literally in this video..m
who else thought they were gonna say
"Number 15.... Burger King Foot Lettuce"
4:19 I LOVE THIS SO MUCH XD
Originally it wasn't going to be called the Britannic, it was originally going to be called the Gigantic. The name was changed after the sinking of the Titanic
Wait---what? The production of the movie was more expensive than the production of the fucking ship? That's outrageous.
People were also paid way less back then.
" The Titanic weighed more than 52,310 tons "
How exactly did they weigh the ship in 1912, I don't understand...
Basic math.
You can weigh in all the building materials before building it and add it up
I want to point out one thing in regards to the lifeboats. It wasn't hubris that had them carrying less than the total occupants of the ship. At the time, the thought process was that the lifeboats would be used to ferry those from the sinking ship to a rescue ship, allowing them to return to pick up more.
Not to mention that, even if there WERE enough boats, it might not have made much of a difference. As it was, the lifeboats that they actually HAD were barely launched in time, and one of the collapsible lifeboats ended up floating upside down in the water.
@@metro121482 That ties in with the issues related to the levels of the water tight bulkheads. The compromise, which is still made today, was about the form and function of the ship. No other ship in the past century has suffered such catastrophic damage. The builders predicted a worst case scenario: two ships colliding. The rate of sinking was calculated as two to three days. More than enough to get other ships in the area to take the evacuees. All of them.
Had those bulkheads been higher, it may have bought enough time for another ship to get there and help, but the damage was beyond what was anticipated, and as such. It sank far quicker than anticipated.
Could such a disaster happen today? It's doubtful. Modern technology has vastly improved, and lifeboats with it. There is actually a current philosophy in regards to cruise ships that the ship itself is the lifeboat. With the provision that it stay afloat and mobile for much longer to return to port, safer waters, or have a rescue vessel show up. This is, in part, because of the increase in passengers, which take longer to evacuate. Collisions with icebergs has been mitigated by the iceberg patrols, an innovation made in light of the Titanic.
Mistakes were made, that much is known. However all must be taken in context with the time period, and not our own perceptions.
2:59 it was claimed that the front 4 could be flooded and the ship would still be afloat, but 6 were breached and that's why she sank.
24:40
its funny that Brown was remembered as unsinkable just for sitting in lifeboat num 6
while Titanic's Nurse Violet, was on the olympic when it was rammed by an army ship...
she survived the titanic...
and survived the RMS Britanic
she is the Unsinkable Nurse!

Titanic: I got s&£n*$
Iceberg: f&@$ you titanic
Titanc wasn't designed to be the fastest ship, but the most luxurious
Some things that need to be addressed:
6. The Olympic class ships were designed to stay afloat if any two compartments OR the first four were compromised. They had pumps that could keep the ship afloat. The RMS Titanic's first five compartments were compromised. Technically, the sixth was damaged, too, but pumps kept water from flooding that compartment until much later. The Britannic hit a mine and sank, but she sank because the explosion kept some of her bulkhead doors from closing, and there were open portholes because it was hot inside the ship.
8. The RMS tag had nothing to do with whether a ship was safe or not. The Titanic was certainly not given the title of RMS because of her watertight bulkheads. That had more to do with shipping companies making deals with the British government to have some of their ships carry their own post offices and to deliver mail across the ocean. The RMS title was often used as a bragging right, as it was considered prestigious and given to the best of ships.
17. Eh, there IS proof of the F deck part of the grand staircase. That's how a first class passenger would get to the Turkish baths, which were on F deck. There was an area on F deck where you could look straight up to the glass dome on the boat deck.
22. Honestly, the RMS Titanic did not have that big a crowd. The RMS Olympic did. At the time, the Titanic was just considered another Olympic. Neat. The only people crowding around for her departure were most often connected to the ship in some way- for example, they had a relative travelling on board. When the Carpathia arrived in New York, she received a massive crowd, but that was because people wanted to know what happened.
26. There were 2208 people on board. 712 were saved. 1496 perished. Those numbers have been reached separately many times.
38. The crew received a number of iceberg warnings during the Titanic's maiden voyage, but the warnings were often casual in nature. Some were combined with congratulations for Captain Smith. As ice was common in that area at that time of the year, no action was needed apart from moving the ship south for a while. Besides this, conditions reported ahead were great, near perfect. High visibility, no fog. If there's ice, you'll see it. Yes, Jack Phillips told the Californian to shut up, but Phillips and Harold Bride had been fixing the wireless device after it broke and were working without much sleep. They still had more work to do, so they were very stressed when the Californian interrupted them.
45. No. If the ship hit the iceberg dead-on, it would have ripped her apart. She was travelling very fast and was extraordinarily heavy. Doing so would have sunk the ship in minutes rather than 2 hours and 40 minutes.
48. The lifeboat drill was said to be postponed to Monday. It was cancelled on Sunday because it would have interrupted Sunday services. Plus, the ship was making good time. No one wanted to stop the ship just to lower a lifeboat when the crew already had, and successfully, in Southampton. The launching of the boats during the sinking was a bit chaotic, but the crew knew what they were doing. They launched every single boat with the exception of the last two collapsibles. That's pretty impressive, given all of it had to be done by hand.
*** I would also like to mention: lifeboats at the time were only meant to ferry passengers from the sinking ship to the rescue ship. They were never intended to carry a ship's full capacity. They were designed to make multiple return trips, if possible.***
57. The lights did not shut off. In fact, the emergency lights were burning long after the stern broke free from the bow. The Titanic's electrical system was great for 1912. The lights submerged in water were often still lit, giving the sea a greenish glow.
58. The stern never went fully vertical. It's more likely it rolled far over to port and sank just about on its side.
61. Witnesses have said Thomas Andrews and Captain Smith were on the bridge just as the water crashed over the boat deck.
71. Same as 26. Wrong number of passengers saved.
75. What happened to Ismay was character assassination. He acted heroically. I'm a personal believer that First Officer Murdoch insisted Ismay get into the boat. There's question that this actually happened. I believe it is more than likely, given Ismay was actually a passenger, not a member of the crew. He was a brave man and died shortly after the RMS Olympic was scrapped in 1937.
Survivers said he was also was helping to get people on the boats
I saw a Titanic Exhibition once. It was good, interesting.
Jealous!! Ive always wanted to see that.
A few yrs ago I went to the Titanic museum in Branson Missouri and it was cool , it was a hot summer day and they had a bowl with freezing water to show how cold the ocean was and I put both hands in it and used the cold water to cool me down it awesome lol

The Titanic was actually more of an Irish ship because the architect was Irish the people who built it were mostly Irish and it was built in Ireland the only truly British thing about it was the crew
The titanic sank like the British empire 😪😪

type a F in the chat for two sunken things

The 4th funnel of the Olympic class. The most overcomplicated kitchen vent in history.
2this was fantastic , very well done , I learned a lot . I would like to see a similar vid about the Mary Celeste , it's a fascinating story about a ship that seemingly was doomed from its construction
I would take a trip on the Titanic II.
Me too
Its a hoax.
Joe Fera It’s real, An Australian is doing it.

The reason for the canceling of the boat drill was because they didn’t think they would need it, and Smith wanted to preach the church service since it would be his last one ever

The Titanic also has its own Newspaper
“I wonder if it ever had anything interesting to report”

Headline- We’re Sinking!!!!
Me-Well at least they reported something interesting lol 😂
The fact I learned nothing new this entire video and that I noticed some inaccuracies in it proves not how much I know about the titanic, but it just proves I am a nerd.
Sorry to be a little bugger but, a lot of the pictures of 'titanic' in this video aren't of Titanic, but of her sister ship Olympic.
they do look very similar if you didn't know the difernece beween the shis you'd think they were the same ship
@@TV-ly3dp I know, I was just pointing it out.
Technically, we would call boarding the titanic “suicide”
I’ve been looking forward to this
@ 2:54 in regards to Titanic's watertight compartments, any 2 of her compartments could be flooded, or 4 of the first 5 compartments could be flooded. The iceberg ruptured all first 5 compartments and the coal bunker in the 6th
I met a lady named Carpathia named after the ship that's saved her mother's life and herself since her mom was still pregnant with her.
Correction when you said 2nd officer Charles Lightoller your arrow pointed to 3rd officer Pitman
"Gored by spiky water" 😂 quality!
I'd bet money that J. Bruce Ismay had something to do with Capt. Smith cancelling the lifeboat drill. According to survivors, Ismay "liked to remind people who he was."
4th funnel was added because the king thought it would look "grander"
grandeur
The king wasnt associated with titanic
@@bobbybobby7943 that is what i read in a book called *story of the titanic* i may be wrong but he is not right
@@hanscherokeelaoluntok8803 you spelled it wrong, not kenny from florida
the king had nothing to do with white star, but bruce ismay, and harland and wolff did as they made her
“Greetings, motherfacters!”
great intro
Violet Jessup was straight up taking those ships down bruh.
I don't learn unless you put these facts out sir! Thank you for returning.
so you're telling me that the ship S.S City of New York was as close as the Titanic got to NY and if SS City of New York wasn't in the way the Titanic might have dodged the iceberg.
Guggenheim and his aid died like true gentlemen
‘’How disrespectful do you want to be to the people that died by making jokes and acting like it didn’t actually happen and was just a movie’’. This guy:yes
Thx so much for making this video!!!
I just bought Rose, can't wait to read it!
Why couldn’t the crew just use their tools they had to break the lock that had the binoculars in? Or ask the guests if anybody had any?
I don't think they thought of that
Should I recommend this video to my teacher for class?
I still tear up when I hear about Isidor Straus and his wife going down together now that's true love RIP.
33:11 That guy should have warned us about WWI instead.
If only you made this 9 years ago
it would be the 101st anniversary
The age rose died
I never knew some of these facts! Thanks for this!
By the way, the binoculars were not present in the crows nest because the best way to spot an iceberg is with the naked eye.
41. The binoculars would have had little effect, because it would have been just a zoom which would not have helped because of the cold air mirage. It is also very likely that Murdoch saw the iceberg first because when Fleet called the bridge he said that the ship was already turning.
47. Had it collided head on it would have sunk VERY quickly because the whole ship doesnt just stop when you hit something, everything aft would have kept going which would have surely split the ship in several pieces. There has been a computer simulator done in a scenario like this and its what happened, the ship would have sunk in about 15 minutes. Take the Britannic for example, it hit a mine and most of its watertight doors were jammed and it didnt even do the force the Titanic would have been subject to had they collided head on.
79. The captain had taken measures to avoid the ice, he thought he had turned the ship enough and it was just unfortunate that there was an iceberg right there.
The lifeboats were meant to be as ferries between two ships but indeed there was not enough for everybody.
The evacuation was pretty calm until most of the boats were gone because the passengers did not think the ship was sinking. Of course in the later stages when the passengers started to feel and see the ship list panic set in.
Many planned on going back to the ship some even sat in their rooms thinking the sinking would "blow over"
47 is simply not true. Titanic, like many other ships of her time, was designed to endure a head-on collision. At the time such an occurrence was considered the most by ship designers because it was the most likely to happen out of any other scenario. A breach in the hull starboard or port side was given much less thought. This is why the walls of the water-tight bulkheads in the front of the ship were kept at a larger height than the rest, who’s walls were brought down a bit in fear of impeding too much on the decks above.
The ship would not break apart and sink rapidly in the event of a head-on collision. There’s been dozens of ships in history that collided straight into stationary objects, who sustained severe damage to the bow but remained intact and afloat. That’s because of how ships are designed and what materials are used in construction.
No, I wouldn't go on the maiden voyage of the new Titanic, 😂. No reason to tempt the Grim Reaper. 😂
You posted this on my birthday and this is my passion
People are still relying on old data. The official up-to-date count is - 2,208 souls were aboard Titanic when she sailed off from Queenstown, 1,496 tragically passed away that night, and 712 survived the sinking.
