Hi Sam. On behalf of "Officer Lightoller" and the entire team thank you for showcasing us! It is so rewarding when we hear that those who are as fascinated with Titanic as we are appreciate what we do! I agree with you that the best artifact is the telegraph. Not sure if you noticed but it is still in the position for the last order Murdoch gave stopping the engines. Gives me chills every day. Next time I hope you'll take our guided tour! Thanks again for visiting! Jim Q (aka Officer Charles Lightoller)
HEY MAN!!!! THANKS SO MUCH AND I AM GLAD TO HAVE MET YOU AND EVERYONE AT THE MUSEUM!
May i ask a question? Did Captain Smith give a "slow ahead" order when he arrived on the bridge?
I think a movie, or at least a TV drama should be made of Charles Lightoller's life
@@thomasdaniels6824 ummmm no hummmmmm. Maybe.
Keep up the good work, young man. Good video and great workmanship. You will get there..
I visited this museum with my mom in 2011. One of the most emotional moment for me is the lifeboat scene. The tour guide made the female and male “passengers” separate and for a moment I was so deeply into the scenario that I was afraid of not seeing my mom forever and the male “passengers” were about to be left alone in the sinking ship. With the tour guides narratives and the chilling A/C running to simulate that horrific night. This experience is once a lifetime that one must try!
Yay! I work there. This makes me happy. That’s my FAVORITE artifact as well!! Crazy how the Telegraph is still hard of starboard position. Gives me chills. If you guys visit ask for Claudia I’ll make sure you’re taken care of! :)
Did I talk to you when I visited? I believe you were at the front desk.
What day did you come?
@@claudialfain The beautiful blonde that works at titanic he rememberers don’t let him kid you...
@@sweetassugar2076 ah shucks ☺ 😊 😌
@@sweetassugar2076 she might not have been a blonde that day.
There's a Titanic museum in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. When you enter you're given a ticket for a passenger (the employees are in WSL uniform) and after you complete the tour you find out whether the person whose ticket you hold died or survived. Among the things they have are a recreation of the ship's bridge in a darkened room with the temperature set to what it allegedly was on the night of the sinking (they also had water around the model that you could reach into and find out how cold it was), three slanted models of part of the stern you could climb up to find out what it was like to try and hold onto the ship before it split and, when I visited in 2016, they had recovered the violin used by the band, but told us it was bought by someone else and that they'd no longer have it. Haven't been there since, so can't confirm or deny that. But yeah, definitely worth checking that museum out if you get the opportunity.
Wow, that sounds so cool.. wish I lived closer to there. 😢
I went there a couple of years ago and it was insane the amount of stuff they had. I want to go again. When I went, they were actually celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Titanic film
Me and my wife went earlier this year. I wanna say around March. Wallace Hartley's violin was still there. But, They said it would go to another museum sometime in April.
I went on a similar tour at the Las Vegas exhibition. I received the ticket of a 3rd class female passenger and at the end of the tour I found out she didn't survive ☹️
It was an excellent tour and RIP to those who lost their lives on that night
There’s a sister museum in Branson MO
I highly recommend you visit the Las Vegas exhibit as well. They not only have one of the smaller cherubs from the Grand Staircase landings but they have an actual piece of the floor, not just the tiles, on display. They also have the stand that used to hold the ship’s steering wheel on the bridge and windows from the first class lounge, along with the Big Piece of the hull, among other artifacts. It was absolutely humbling to see these artifacts in person and I’m sure someone with as much passion for this ship as you would appreciate it.
Thanks for this! I’m going to Las Vegas in September, so I will definitely check it out.
@@finster1968 It’s inside “The Luxor Hotel”
Vegas native here, and I concur: the Vegas exhibit is stunning. I cried while I was going through it, it was extremely eerie and humbling. Made it feel more real than it's ever felt to me before.
@@JSR_ I know, sweetheart.
@@jamesdean258 why tf did you call him sweetheart?
I love that you can take pictures and film. You couldn't do that when I went years ago.
@Judy laughed cuz i cracked a joke You weren't allowed too. Smartphones weren't a thing back then but cameras were.
True very truee!!
Actually that telegraph control came from the rear stern docking bridge. I remembered when they recovered it almost 30 years ago.
the docking bridge was completely destroyed...
@@maritimehistorian2642 along with the rest of the titanic
@@maritimehistorian2642 Yes, hence how it ended up in the debris field
Great video, you should go to the museum in Belfast where the Titanic was built, its something else. Walking down her dry dock really makes you realise how magnificent she is.
At the old location they had a room that was a mock up of the boat deck. It was kept at the same temperature as that night,the rail was at the same height to the water and the stars were all in the same place. The auto was playing was being steam released from the funnels ,you could hear people yelling and the davits lowering the lifeboats. I cried in that room.
That sounds amazing! Was this museum at a previous location in Orlando?
@@bigbaddms Yes. They moved to the current location when they had to down size.
When did they move? That was my favorite room when I went about 3 years ago. Haven’t been in a while but wasn’t aware that they downsized..
@@bellthandian It was a few years ago. Around the time Titanic INC was going though all their trouble.
I remember that too, that room brought it all home for me. I’m sorry to hear it’s not there anymore.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who was stunned by some of the artifacts. What really affected me was where they had that recreation of the iceburg. You could touch it and feel just how cold it actually was. They also had that deck area that was the same freezing temperature as the night of the sinking. That made it real for me. Thinking about all those people going into that freezing water made me very emotional. I hope to return someday. I went shortly after the museum opened, and I recommend it to everyone!
My grandfather was a chief propulsion engineer for Harland and Wolff and helped design the triple expansion steam engines for Titanic. I saw an artifact exhibit in San Diego sone years ago and one of the first artifacts in display was a giant connecting rod from one of the engines my grandfather designed. I still get chills thinking about that.
I’m a local but I went a few years ago with a friend from out of town. It’s so surreal seeing some of these pieces in person. I really loved walking out onto the boat deck and touching the iceberg. That moment gave me so many chills aside from it being extremely cold. Of course getting to go onto the grand staircase for a photograph with the captain was even more impressive. One of my favorite little museums in our tourist area. Definitely plan to go back next year and see it again when I have company in town.
This was amazing to see and that they allowed it to be filmed:) I have visited the Vegas exhibit and I too was just stunned at what was recovered and is in that museum!..
Next time I'm in Orlando, I'm checking this place out
I once visited a temporal Titanic museum in my home country in Puerto Rico at a mall in 2009. It was a must (obligatory) in my bucket list and my parents knew it that I wanted to go there lol. I didn't know how long it would stay before moving in someplace else or something, but in the end I eventually visited it that December 2009. It was an awesome experience seeing actual artifacts and that simulated iceberg thing that you could touch it and feel it. And everything at the gift shop was kind of too pricey, so the only thing I could buy is a pen with a little Titanic handcrafted model on the top end, pretty cute thing to own.
Yeah I went to a traveling one when it was at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia.
It was cool.
I went there in February for my birthday and I thought of you. I’m glad you went! Cheers from Puerto Rico
I have been there about 3 or 4 times. Absolutely fantastic!
I went there when I was 9, that place is full of so much history and interesting facts
I'm going to Pigeon Forge in August for Titanicon 2021. Next summer will be Orlando. Really excited!!
They were super strict when I was there no photos etc but had mrs astors life belt and what the believe was part of the grand staircase, as well as a full grand staircase replica!
The one is Branson, Mo is also pretty good. I don't remember their photo policy.
@@brianbrian4317 i wouldn’t really call it a *replica,* per say.
Titanicon you say? In Pigeon Forge??? When and where in PF is it??
@@brianbrian4317 there were 2 places at the Pigeon Forge i could take pics a few months ago...one was the music room where Wallace Hartley's violin is and the other was the room where the Lego Titanic replica is
Wow. So glad I decided to watch this right before driving to Vegas. Guess I have something to do now lol.
Update: I went.
I confess I was curious as to why there might be a Titanic museum in Miami rather than say, New York...But its clearly someone's labour of love. What a great looking place! And Officer Lightoller was fantastic too, haha.
@West Hunter God, why did I type Miami? I am an idiot sometimes. But thanks for the explanation!
Wow they salvage the engine room telegraph amazing.
Love that the guy was cosplaying as lightoller, Very nice touch.
I can’t wait to visit the museum when I go t Florida next year
Super cool
I went there in Nov of 2019. I got to touched a peace of the Titanic, It was a life long Dream of mine to touch a piece of the ship that I was obsessed with as a kid
Interesting what piece did you touch?
@@JohnLee-pt5jz Not the big Piece, They didn't want that one touched lol, There was a plexie Glass Case near the exit door not to far from the Hull exhibit that had a round hole big enough to put your hand in and Touch a peace of metal from the Titanic, Now Specific piece mind you just a piece of metal.
Have any pics ? Videos ? Links ?
@@Mr_Timn I would have touched the big piece anyway. Wtf are they gonna do? Just touch it right when you're about to leave.
@@Gameboy-Unboxings they did have security there
didn’t even know there was a museum in orlando thanks for that
There’s hundreds of museums in Florida. We have dozens in the Orlando and central Florida area, including the Ford & Edison estate & museum and Ernest Hemingway Museum, among many others. I love the 40+ museums over in St Augustine FL. The oldest town in the country with a lot of history.
@@bellthandian lol
@@firebird_spleen4190 ?
@@bellthandian pretty sure they meant that they didn't know there was a titanic museum.
Oh yea i went here once with my family on our way back from a vacation to Orlando Studios theme park; I even still have my Entry ticket from the museum as a souvenir from it. Great place to go overall.
Got a reason to go to Orlando! Thanks for the tour.
I’m going here in June! I’m super excited
Thanks for this video.
I'm going this weekend! 😊👏
Thank you for the great videos!
I see they even added the hand sanitizer station before you board the ship. Very 1912 authentic.
CoVid secure won’t be open unless do...
Historic travels rule!! I watch your vids all the time and learn more cool things, like the Wilhelm Gustoff!
For me, the Grand Staircase and the cold boat deck were the most impressive scenes of the visit. Also memorable was that the ticket you bought was essentially a ticket for Titanic's transatlantic crossing and had the name of an actual passenger and his travel class on it. At the end of the visit, were huge posters with the name of every crew member and passenger and you could check out if "you" were a survivor or one of the majority who drowned.
I remember going to the titanic museum as a kid and being bummed out when i saw i got one of the musicians bc i knew they all died lol
That was amazing, I hope one day I could go to that Museum
Loved the video. Your presentation was on point. Mind blowing
I visited a travelling Titanic museum as a school bus driver on a field trip in Phoenix. The kids were amazed at all the artifacts that had been down on the ocean floor for so long, and recovered. There was an example of how cold the water was that night which we all put our hands in----almost immediately went numb. The kids were rather somber by the time the tour was over. They realized the immensity of the tragedy, and some were even crying. These were 4th to 6th grade kids. (Jan Griffiths).
That was amazing thanks Sam😁👍
I love your videos. I was a Titanic geek all my life. I was a member of the Titanic historical society from 1975. I wanted the Titanic model back in the day. It was 50 bucks in 1975. I never thought ever, i would get it for Christmas. We had opened our presents and i was happy as any kid. Then Mum and Dad said,oh wait!close your eyes and put out your hands. That box was 2 and a half feet. I will never forget getting that. My Dad and i did the model together. Took 2 months.And my Nanny gave us one of the first fibre optic lights that had just come out. My Dad took it all apart. We used the long strings throughout the ship. First model that had lights. Best gift ever.
The 40 hour train ride was worth it!!!, amazing video
I went there this past weekend Thursday and Friday Thursday to walk around and Friday for the dinner show it's an amazing place plus I was only staying a walking distance from it Friendly staff and amazing actors
The museum of science and industry in Chicago along time ago had the Titanic exhibit with a bunch of the artifacts and even the piece they brought up. They even had a small piece cut out and in a case for you to touch. So I’ve touched the Titanic. All the artifacts were super cool to see, and I remember it all from almost 20 years ago.
Wow I'm glad you mentioned this. I live in Chicago and my sophomore year in high school (20 years ago) I went and didn't have any Appreciation for that field trip as I would now. I forgot it was even at MSI in Chicago. I think it was a traveling exhibit and didn't stay very long. Recently I was in vegas and when to that one at the Luxor. I was a kid in a candy store 😅
That piece of the hull really gives a sense of the size engineering of the day. Reminds me of old bridges of the day that we still use but kinda cool to see part of Titanic built like that.
Also, i totally understand your awe when you saw the telegraph. I have seen artefacts from history before and ones i had read about and known about certainly give you a strange feeling when you see them in person knowing who had once touched of stood in front of this object many years before.
I got that awe seeing Da vinci Sketches. Diaries from ww1 trenches, some bronze aged jewellery found in my local area and part of plane Rudolph Hess flew to Scotland. Its a strange connection it can give you to the past
I remember an old documentary showing the wheel still in place. Eerily, it was in the STOP position. They closed the show with it. That was a late eighties doco maybe? They must have recovered it well after, because it’s in much poorer condition than I remember.
As usual, a wonderful video; & many thanks :)
Also, as I'm sure you noted, it is a little regrettable (but understandable) that 'Mr Lightoller' said "Scotland Yard"
Great CZcamsr Sam good job
I saw the traveling Titanic museum in Ft Worth Texas many years ago. We got one of those tickets with a passenger name and story. My passenger in First class died in the disaster.
@3:37 See! The gangway door on D-deck was open!
I got goosebumps when I saw the main Telegraph. Just knowing we're looking at something that could have made or broke Titanic's history as it is today is incredible.
Awesome, I went to a traveling artifact display it was awesome
I've been to the Orlando and Vegas museums, amazing places
I like how the actor playing Lightoller nods his head in agreement when Sam is talking about how the lights dimming is historically accurate to the sinking
when I went when I was younger and at the beginning they gave us all tickets with real passenger's names, and the 'loading' deck was much bigger and I remember it playing the captain's voice or someone yelling "All aboard!" and you could hear the seagulls and the horn blowing. We had our own tour guide, acting like a stewardess on board. We got to feel how cold the water was and felt of the 'ice burg'. One of the most amazing illusions they did was bring us all the way to the deck and you were surrounded by all these stars in the night sky and you could hear the waves crashing and feel how cold it was 'outside'. The tour guide told us to take a moment of silence for all the lost souls who didn't make it. And right near the end, they had a wall full of everyone's names on board, so you had to find your name from the ticket to see who you were and if you survived or not. I miss that one
Absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing 🤩
I’ve visited titanic’s birthplace,Belfast. Museum,stood in the dry dock etc.
Would love to visit this museum though.
Great videos, keep up the good work 👍
I'm wondering if they still had the "iceberg". Hubby and I went in 2000 during our honeymoon and several of the things you showed weren't there but several were. I think my fave piece was one of the life vest they had. It had blood on it. Don't think I'll ever forget that as long as I live. Anyway, the iceberg was basically a slab of ice affixed to the wall and the guide explained how cold the water was that night and how close this piece of "ice " was. They told us how long it took for people to freeze to death and said go and to keep our hands, palm facing, on the ice as long as possible. Nobody could come close to that number. It was so eye opening bc until you're that cold you can't understand cold.
Wow the musuem is amazing.
I had the pleasure of visiting that museum back in 2017 with my sisters. The docent we had at the time was a lovely young lady dressed as one of Titanic's first class passengers. Seeing all the artifacts and recreations was amazing. I especially loved the Grand Staircase. But the most impactful room for me was one of the last rooms of the tour, with all the names of the passengers sorted by class. At first, it was fun as we tried to find "our" names on the lists to see if we survived or not (everyone is given a card at the beginning with the name and short bio of a real passenger). But after, it was sobering to realize that each of those names was an actual person on board the Titanic that night, and that less than a third of them lived to see the next day.
When i was younger I went to the museum in Belfast and good lord I remember seeing Nomadic just sitting there
This is awesome i wish there was a Titanic museum like this in UK. Thank you so much as always Sam x
This was one of your best, a real great watch. Thanks for your time and work in making your videos..... Thanks again......
I live in Florida and titanic is my favorite movie and this museum was one of my favorite things to ever expierence.
I really appreciate the effort you have put into making this video when it comes to the long trip, to everything else. Thanks Sam! Keep it up👍
I live in Titusville, Florida and my boyfriend and I are going this weekend to the Titanic Museum. I’m obsessed with the Titanic and the era of the great ocean liners in general and I can’t believe I didn’t know that museum was in Orlando!
I live in Tampa and didn’t know about this museum!
I definitely plan on going as I am fully vaccinated against Covid!
Well ain't you special.
I saw this place a few years ago. I'd just take the tour. The meal 🍽 & stage show is a bit much. You can see a lot. I was not thrilled with the green screen, 📸 area directly by the door 🤨 but the actors, staff are +. The 🚢 gets a lot of history & details.
#novaccine... don’t bring that to Florida pls, this is MAGA country!! desantis for lifeeee
@@TanTan-hr7uq Please don't start, it's idiots turning anti-lockdown rallies into trump rallies that made this whole thing another stupid Dem vs Rep issue and then everyone got partisan instead of making up their own minds.
@@TanTan-hr7uq You do realize that Trump actually rushed the production of a safe vaccine and was himself vaccinated against Covid this past January.
He takes credit for the vaccine, developed under “Operation Warp Speed” on his little blog.
Hi Sam. Just wanted to thank you for making this video. I finally fulfilled a lifelong dream of going to a Titanic museum. I also went to the one in Orlando while I was visiting my aunt. It was an absolutely amazing experience and I couldn't believe I could even touch her. Thank you again.
Finally caught you at the start! I enjoy your videos bud! Much love from TX
I went to a Titanic exhibit in St. Petersburg Florida in around 2000. It was one of the first public exhibits with artifacts from the recovery. It was moving, but I'd like to go again, since I know a lot more now, thanks to your channel.
I'm still mildly devastated from the train story
Don't worry, that's just America
I do love it when staff who play people of the past are that in character. I have done work like that in my local museum playing Jane Austen's best friend. It does take skill to know whether or not visitors like you being in character, but the people that do like you being in character are my favourite visitors who make the shifts all the more enjoyable. It shows enthusiasm for their work. I hope I can come across the pond to Florida to see this museum. It looks great! After some research on my family tree I discovered I have cousin who was on board and worked as kitchen staff. I have always been interested in the titanic from a very young age, probably about 5, I had loads of books on it, and did get teased about it at school, but I never let that impact my interests!
Hi there. As... "a very close friend" of Officer Lightoller I'd love to learn more about your relative. I am looking for more characters to bring to life and really enjoy bringing lesser known stories to life. If you'd be willing to share your relatives story I'd love to.connect through my business social media. (Titanic is a part time passion gig.) I'm on FB and IG @SomethingNewStudioFL Thanks! Jim
I may be one of the few people who don't like the re-enacting encounters. They always make be feel self conscious because I hardly know what to say to these people.
My little cousin is now obsessed with the Titanic so I showed him your channel and he loves it
There was a piece of the hull at the exhibit I went to as well, but it was smaller, maybe 5 x 8 feet. We were allowed to touch it, and that made the Titanic come to life for us. (Jan Griffiths).
Went there with my wife in 2015 can honestly say I loved it.
You should visit the one in Pigeon Forge TN.
I hear good things.
I've been to the exhibition in Las Vegas, but I didn't have an appreciation or understanding of everything at the time. I really wonder how it would be to go today and see the artifacts, now having a better understanding of the Titanic.
Great video as usual
Congrats on 35K ⭐️ XD
Years ago I went to a titanic exhibit in Victoria BC and I spent so much time in that section that I heard over the PA (name) "please come to the coat check", my dad had already walked through it ages ago lol but i wanted to soak up every minute
Ace video as always Sam. Thanks so much for sharing and the info. You should be a guest of honour on Titanic 2 when its built for all your info and dedication to Titanic.
I did the dinner attraction at the museum it was very fun but by the end the actors did such a great job conveying the reality of what happened. By the end of it I was fighting back tears. The actors playing the Straus’s were very fun but also so good and when I started crying actually comforted me telling me that everyone there had had that moment when the wreck became tangible to them. They were so incredible and would love to go back
I'm really enjoying these videos..nice work and you clearly enjoy your work which brings an enthusiasm to the piece..it still makes me go cold when I think about the whole disaster..and it never seems to lose that eerie quality
Historic Travels my beloved ❤️
Good to see people taking precautions.
You are joking, right?
@@j.vonhogen9650 dude I live Sydney Australia, our covid is practically zero cases.I practice covid instructions when needed, I don't go overboard with it.when this started last year Sydney went into severe Lockdown only essential services stayed open the rest had to close, like pubs clubs take aways.cues formed outside Centrelink office's all over Sydney (that's our unemployment office) the government poured so much funding into we had a curfew in place you were only allowed out between 5am till 8pm unless you were a shift worker ect. A year later we are doing really well unemployment has dropped, how many countries can say that?
@@JohnLee-pt5jz - I will never doubt your noble intentions, but I have plenty of reasons to doubt the effectiveness of lockdowns and face masks, simply because we never got reliable numbers on Covid 19 cases. In august 2020, the CDC dramatically corrected its mortality numbers by reducing the official death count by about 90%. Earlier this month, the CDC reduced these numbers again by a staggering 95%! And guess what? Both official corrections were completely ignored by mainstream newsmedia around the world.
These corrections of course apply to the USA, but the same massive corrections were made in Europe, so this is definitely not something you can simply ignore, even when you trust the numbers in your own country, since any comparison with other countries would be structurally flawed.
Apart from that, the testing procedures for Covid19 have been seriously flawed for more than a year, leading to a huge number of false positives. The inventor of the most commonly used Covid test (who happens to be a Nobel prize winner) has warned the world for this mistake ever since testing started back in 2020. Even the WHO acknowledged this incredible mistake publicly, and changed the testing procedure just a few months ago, which interestingly coincided with a dramatic reduction in the number of positive test results.
In other words, based on the numbers that have been reported over the past 1.5 year, there is no way to draw any definite conclusions about the effectiveness of lockdowns anywhere on this planet, which means you can still be right, but we just don't know at this point.
As for the masks, they are proven to be ineffective, since the risk of serious adverse health effects of wearing them is much higher than the risk of damage to one's health due to a Covid 19 infection.
Fauci (of all people!) supervised an ambitious scientific study about the effectiveness of the use of masks during the Spanish Flu pandemic, which led to the official conclusion by the research team that much more people had died from respiratory infections and illnesses caused by the wearing of masks, than as a result of the Spanish Flu itself!
I didn't even mention the devastating secundary effects of lockdowns and masks on the mental health of people, social interaction and social cohesion, the economy, schools, universities, and education in general, law enforcement, freedom of speech, universal freedoms and other human rights, etcetera.
In addition to all of that, there are countless other factors to consider when comparing countries. Australia has a young population, Italy has a (very) old population. This appears to be reflected by the difference in (corrected) Covid numbers in both countries. Attributing any positive effects to lockdowns or face masks is extremely problematic and makes much less sense than taking into account the characteristics of different populations, like demographic factors, Gross Domestic Product, political stability, quality of healthcare, climate, population density, etcetera.
Anyway, I don't think it is ever "good to see people taking precautions" out of fear or obedience. Remember that wearing a life jacket on the Titanic would probably have broken your neck if you would have had to jump into the water. The life jackets made out of cork and canvas were meant to keep you afloat, not to protect you when jumping off a ship in the middle of the night.
Long story short, I think it is time to stop wearing masks and return to the old normal, but that's just my opinion, for which I have been banned on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter since the spring of 2020. I'm not supposed to have a dissenting opinion, apparently.
Wow! That is so amazing. You remember how much trouble they had getting that piece of hull. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.
The Las Vegas museum has the bigger piece actually. Still incredible to see another part of the ships hull recovered that I wasn't aware about.
Oh my God!!! I’m going to Orlando in one week and didn’t know about this museum. I would have missed it if not for your video! Thanks a LOT!!!
I been to QM many times, one of them this museum.
Thank you for all your amazing videos. It's a pleasure to watch them every single time 🤝
I went to a couple of Titanic artifact exhibits and they seem to be getting better & better as more artifacts are being recovered. I last went to one in 2012 during the 100th anniversary of the sinking.
Can't wait till premiere!!!
This brought a whole new frame of mind regarding the Titanic. Hope to one day visit one of he museums.
I wish I could get their tbh and go to other museums of titanic 😁
i went there as a kid back in the early 2000's and didnt appreciate it like i would now and want to back there someday soon
Hi Sam !! 👋 glad you liked Florida Titanic museum ...I love the Ice burg they have !!
I love the titanic so much.
You met Officer Lightoller....I met Violet Jessop when I went with my wife and mother in law in 2019
Now that would be weird for me, I used to work with her great nephew. Amazing lass who had the misfortune to experience sinking in both the Titanic and Britannic.
@@cowboy10uk and she sailed on Olympic as well
Now that was cool! Perhaps one day I'll get to go. There's a Titanic museum in Branson that I would love to see as well. Maybe next year?
Did this like 18 years ago when it was a traveling exhibit at MOSI in Tampa. Super cool experience and one of these days I need to make it over to I-Drive and do it again
Real question is did you touch that piece of the hull? I would’ve, might be a tad childish, but touching the actually hull would truly bring titanic into reality for me
If he would have touched it, he probably wouldn't tell, since it's not in the interest of the museum to 'invite' visitors to touch the Titanic artifacts.
I feel the same way lol.
@@j.vonhogen9650 There actually is a piece that they ordinarily encourage guests to touch, but it’s off limits now due to Covid.
I saw the traveling exhibit back in 2005 in Chicago. It was amazing! My dad was John Jacob Astor.. lol I was in 3rf class.
