For any who have not seen or heard of this A&E documentary- I saw that on YouTube years ago and I think those videos were taken down now, so the above link is to a slightly newer upload. I did not view it, so I don't know for sure if...

I saw a story about Titanic on MSN the other day, probably because this is the anniversary of it's sinking. It would not have changed anything if Fredrick Fleet had binoculars. The problem wasn't being able to see, it's that they were in the wrong ...

Something else, Titanic did not split with the stern going way up in the air. The bow section is sitting on the bottom in fairly decent shape(or it was when it was found),the stern section is about a 1/4 mile away and smashed all to hell. Titanic had...

Interestingly enough Britannic was never finished as a luxury liner as WW 1 started and it was fitted out as a troop ship. It was hit by a torpedo and sank even faster than Titanic. The funny part is Olympic survived WW 1 and was finally sold for ...

I wrote some time back about why nobody seemed to try to slow Titanic sinking or find something to use as a lifeboat to save more people. I thought this might be fun. It's 11:40 pm Titanic just sideswiped a iceberg over a 100 ft. tall down the ...

Anybody that is interested, this doc explains why Fredrick Fleet didn't see the iceberg until 500yrd.s out, and why the California didn't rescue Titanic.

Harland and Wolfe knew Titanic's steel was brittle in the cold, and there is proof( not what they knew, but that the steel got brittle). Olympic was skewered in the ass by the HMS Hawke's 53 ft. ram. The pictures of the damage show clearly where the ...

There were a lot of changes made after Titanic. The distress signal was changed from "CQD" to SOS, Marconi operators were required to operate 24 hours a day, ships were required to provide lifeboats for all passengers and crew with mandatory drills. ...

There has never been any mention of anyone trying to slow down Titanic's sinking or to make any kind of raft to save more people. Titanic hit the iceberg at around 11:40 and the stern slipped below the surface at around 2:20. Murdock called for all ...

The reason Titanic only had lifeboats for less than half of the passengers and crew,is because they actually had more than they were required to have. At the time the number of lifeboats a ship had depended on gross tonnage, how big it was. Titanic ...

The reason the lifeboats were not filled to capacity was because the crew was not properly trained on the new Wellen davits and how to properly load the lifeboats. They didn't think they could load the boats full before they lowered them into the ...

At 11:40 pm tonight on the same date and the same day of the week, Titanic sideswipes a iceberg 100ft. tall ripping more holes in the starboard side of Titanic, than the ship could survive. Titanic could survive 4 bulkheads breached out of the first ...

Because Murdock was a idiot and tried to swerve a ship 883 ft long he sideswiped a Iceberg over 100 ft. tall breaching more compartments than the ship could survive. Titanic had 15 water tight compartments, which was great except they only go up to ...

Now we are getting to the important part. Unfortunately the reason that Fredrick Fleet didn't see the iceberg until it was only 500yds out wasn't discovered until just a few years ago. When you look into a hot air mass gs look like they shimmy. When ...

There are a lot of myths associated with Titanic. One I heard a lot was the lookouts did not have binoculars. They didn't, a last minute crew change had the guy with the key transferred while the key was in his pocket. Wouldn't have made any ...

In the early 1900's ships carried mostly freight, immigrants and mail. The RMS part of RMS titanic stood for royal mail steamer. Titanic went down with 600,000 pieces of mail, and oddly enough a car a Renault 2 cylinder that on a good day might hit ...
