Also, there was a concern that the lifeboats would snap if lowered when completely full. Ironically, the boats were built with a metal beam running the length of the keel to prevent exactly this. But the crew had so little training and experience with the lifeboats that they had no idea the metal beam existed.

This makes sense, I never understood why they wouldn't try to save as many people as possible.

damn i didnt know that

And, April 14th, they had actually planned to do a lifeboat drill, but was canceled by the captain allegedly due to wanting to deliver one last Sunday service before he retired. Whereas I am pretty sure he went down with it.

@@heatherm2388 Captain goes down with the ship because he feels responsible for the sinking of it since the captain holds responsibly for the ship itself and everyone on it.

Ooof. You really painted that picture there. What a way to go. Nightmare.

The people left on the ship itself must’ve had no idea how near they were in the water too (that was close to freezing mind you) and how fast the boat was sinking because of the pitch black darkness. They probably could have not make themselves ready for the plunge. There was also no moon that night.

@@achillesroblox Perhaps, but most people also did probably make it to the very end of the stern before it went down, and since the current theory is that the stern went almost vertical during the final plunge they probably knew what was about to happen… horrifying still more

No its bacteria eating the ship

If it weren't for the eyewitness accounts and photos, it would be hard to believe that the great Titanic actually sunk so quickly. The Truth is that, due to the sinking of the Titanic, more attention was given to the dangers of large ships on the open sea and improvements were made to prevent such a disaster from happening again.

I don't think so. He's not that well-known.

The scariest part is that in reality it was much MUCH darker. The oceon in the middle of the night is pitch black. After the ship’s lights went out, you could practically see nothing, only the ships silhouette blocking out the stars behind. That’s why people weren’t sure whether the ship broke in half for a long time. It was just noise, screaming and the dark silhouette of the ship shifting in front of their eyes

@@Ranger-overit wasn’t quick. It took over 3 hours. I’d say that’s slow, which makes it way more scary

I actually shouted "MOLLY!" when I saw her, she's so cool. Look her up, she was known as Molly 'the unsinkable' Brown, or just Molly Brown.

She was my favorite person showcased in the movie. I recognized her immediately when he looked over at her.

Its a well known fact that they didnt almost hit icebergs. Thats sensationalized. While yes, they did go full speed, when asking the captain directly in court if he almost his bergs he laughed and said "do you think i would put my crew at risk like that, what do you think of me".

@@spoons250Interesting, where is he recorded as saying this? The only thing I've found is this: "Speaking of the risk taken by running through dense ice at speed at night, he is reported to have said, "I can only conclude another hand than mine was on the helm." Sounds more like a man describing luck or destiny guiding his efforts rather than careful measures, though I'm sure he certainly took them, being a sensible man.

I wonder if any of the passengers were pissed off

He actually exceeded the carpathia's full speed by 1-2 knots, they also took precautions and when icebergs were spotted they went from between half speed and dead slow, and on the way back they also faced every sort of weather conceivable the passenger's thought that god was angry that any of them survived at all, if you want more information about the titanic, i highly recommend the KZfaq channel "oceanliner designs" his videos are always informative and the animations are top notch.

True, the engineering was brilliant because as long as she was level people could be evacuated to the boats. Now when they sink, they all dramatically list making it harder to evacuate, like the Costa Concordia

@@halo2dThe Titanic's method of sinking was almost unique. A lot of sinking ships (Lusitania) in that time period also eventually capsized. The theory why the Titanic sank evenly was because of the weight distribution of its vast amounts of coal. When the ship first departed there was a fire in its coal bunkers, requiring the coal to all be shifted to the other side of the ship. This made the ship sail at a slight angle through its entire journey, but also compensated for the weight of the water.

ya it was a logarithmic sink

@@demonqueen881 Thanks for that interesting fact! I hadn't heard that one.

@@dogninja0180and who told you that? (This wasnt meant to sound rude) you don’t know if that’s true + the credits of the movie roll too

I have to disagree. Every bit of knowledge I've seen from the Titanic's story shows a age where men were willing to give their lives in the preservation of women and their young. I don't think modern collegiate facilities or universities would want to highlight that in today's era.

I agree I think it would be very interesting to see the perspective of someone who was still on the ship as it sank because after people realized that there were no more life boats there had to be some sort of conflict of people who just simply want to live. That perspective intrigues me because we all know they boarded women and children onto the life boats but I haven’t heard the story of the people who had to stay on the ship as it sank

I agree, although being in the engine room would be a short game. that being said, I'd like to see every class of every age group and gender just to see the societal differences and actions/reactions that would/could have taken place. such a sad moment in history all around. on top of that, an amazing learning experience for the engineers and backers of Titanic.

@@drowningclown1027 don’t entirely get what you mean by that. But I meant highlighting the difference between lower class who were thrown into boxes with other families compared to upper class who had large lavish apartments on the titanic. Just being able to put yourself in their position. Part of my job as a historian is being able to put myself in the shoes of someone who lived a hundred, a thousand or more years ago and think and feel as they did. It’s how you create historical empathy and it is very hard to accurately and without it people have historical dissonance and inaccuracies. I think more VR like this could lessen that in the average joe. Also more games for Jack to play for me to laugh and procrastinate the research proposal I am supposed to be writing.

@@drowningclown1027 I feel like I'm missing a comment here. Are you disagreeing with the idea of having the game in different perspectives, or that the experiences would be vastly different?

I did that i love dogs too

Surprisingly I thought the daddy would pull on the heart strings

Everyone knows Dog lives matter more than people lives

It's really sad because yes "aww the dog" (we all love dogs) but in the narrative of the game, the dog is clearly here to show that upper class people could even take their dogs before the men leaving the Titanic. Yes, it's a small dog, but you can see at the end, it down there, on a space where a whole human could have fitted. It's just a way of picturing how empty the lifeboats were...

Right?! Just an eerie groan from the metal as it slowly sank before loud cracking/screeching from it breaking apart to just silence (and just hearing all the people). It must of been so terrifying/heartbreaking to witness

@@AlphaWolfey1 ikr, but just imagine waking up from all those sounds and then you look down from your bed and you see the Water going up. That must be so terrifying. Hope the People that Died are in a Better place. Rest in peace.

@@Pvt.cumbust The most heartbreaking scene in “Titanic”, is when the Lower Class Mother is tucking her kids into bed, literally preparing them for death, as calmly as possible.. Being in the lower part of the ship + their Class, she knows they have no chance of getting through the gates & up onto the deck, so instead of running wild, panicking & scaring the children, she has to make the worst decision anyone could possibly imagine. They were on a nice vacation minutes before. Those final moments had to be horrifying, esp for the kids..

While not every survivor saw the ship break in two, they often mentioned sounds that were likely the ship breaking in two. It was given descriptions like a deafening roar, loud explosions, or a volley of musketry. Some survivors assumed it was the boilers exploding.

And then silence...I get goosebumps.

Alcohol lowers your core body temperature.

ER ... Mythbusters would like to have a word with you about what alcohol does to the body's heat retention. It sends the warm blood to your extremities so that you feel warm, but the reason your body pulled the blood away from your hands, feet and ears to begin with is because it was trying to keep the heat in your body around your vital organs. Drunk, body heat pours out of you, there's no retention. It's kind of a quick fix if your fingers are about to be frostbitten, but it's no survival strategy. So, if that happened, he'd freeze faster, not slower.

Yeah, that's not how alcohol works.

I was curious based on the replies re: alcohol but also how this was a true story of a person. If anyone wants to look it up, the baker was Charles Joughin, And it sounds like he didn't have a ton of alcohol, half a tumbler full of liquor. He also was moving around a ton before and after the ship sank, saving people and trying to help. He said he didn't feel the cold in the water, possibly because of the alcohol, and when he was eventually able to get to a lifeboat there wasn't room but someone held him on the side so he was partially out of water. He ended up only having swollen feet. I'm not medically trained in the slightest so I could be wrong, but if I had to hazard a guess, he was probably at least partially just lucky, and then all his moving around probably got his body temperature up and blood flowing to his extremities. Then when it sank, the alcohol may have dulled his perception of the cold enough that he didn't go into shock or have a more extreme reaction, which may have been bolstered by him treading water for hours, further giving reason for blood to flow. When he got to the lifeboat and wasn't actively keeping himself up anymore, that's probably why his feet were swollen because at that point he wouldn't have been exercising his limbs or muscles as much. I imagine he would have died if they hadn't gotten help for a longer period of time. Again, completely guessing here. Also his body chemistry and clothing and body weight and genetics and who knows what else may have also played a role, depending on what the primary factors were in his relatively unscathed survival. I didn't see anything about him wearing a life jacket but I was just skimming one source very quickly. So that may have affected how much energy he exerted, whether he had that aid or not. Either way, I have to agree with OP that the story is fascinating! We can only go based on his own testimony so it's of course possible he lied about being so helpful and heroic when everything was going to hell. But presuming he told the truth, I'm so happy someone like him managed to live. Because based on his narrative, he really tried to help others until pretty much he last second. It could have easily meant that turned into sacrificing himself but clearly he lived. I hope his story was true. So sad that all of this happened though

Sorry but no one was actually locked below, that was created by the movie/ James Cameron, most likely just to add some drama and plot drive.

it makes my stomache turn. the worst part of the titanic to me has always been imagining what it would have been like to be in there and feel the water slowly rising and taking your ability to breathe with it. the panic everyone must have felt, I cannot imagine how terrifying that would be. especially the people who were locked below deck. their last moments of life, they were treated as if they weren't valued. its so heartbreaking.

It’s one thing to read and hear about the sinking but it’s another thing to see it in games or simulations and seeing, hearing and or experiencing what really happened. Like as you said, the guy in the porthole crying out for help or seeing families separated on deck not knowing when they would see each other again. It’s sad and depressing and even more so when we take a step back from the visuals and remember all the other information that was collected centuries after like how there was still room in the lifeboats or misinterpreted words among crew. Saddening.

@@monkee1159 Well, the Wiki page on the sinking of the Titanic mentions the following: "Few third-class (steerage) passengers had made it up onto the deck, and most were still lost in the maze of corridors or trapped behind gates and partitions that segregated the accommodation for the steerage passengers from the first- and second-class areas.[125] This segregation was not simply for social reasons, but was a requirement of United States immigration laws, which mandated that third-class passengers be segregated to control immigration and to prevent the spread of infectious diseases." "In at least some places, Titanic's crew appear to have actively hindered the steerage passengers' escape. Some of the gates were locked and guarded by crew members, apparently to prevent the steerage passengers from rushing the lifeboats.[125] Irish survivor Margaret Murphy wrote in May 1912: 'Before all the steerage passengers had even a chance of their lives, the Titanic's sailors fastened the doors and companionways leading up from the third-class section ... A crowd of men was trying to get up to a higher deck and were fighting the sailors; all striking and scuffling and swearing. Women and some children were there praying and crying. Then the sailors fastened down the hatchways leading to the third-class section. They said they wanted to keep the air down there so the vessel could stay up longer. It meant all hope was gone for those still down there.[125]' "

@@monkee1159 we have no idea. It may very well be true since most of the lower class people were either trapped or locked in rooms or hallways. Either that or some were too rich to think it was that serious and in turn was left to realize how real it was when it was too late. I’ve watched a documentary where some man came and locked rooms making sure people didn’t go back for their stuff and some woman got trapped in her room when going back for a journal or book she was writing.

And as the ship split, people who were already in the water might’ve gotten sucked inside it from where it broke too. So even if you could swim through the vortex, you’d be trapped inside the ship’s walls.

Clearly not. The Hindenburg is a prime example

Apparently the ship's chef was actually able to tread water for 2 hours, swimming away from the ship, before a life boat picked him up. Difficult to be sure, but not impossible for any avid swimmers that jumped ship pretty early.

Charles Joughin begs to differ, he didn't even get his hair wet. While Gracie and Lightoller were pulled down at the beginning of the final plunge (about 10 minutes before Joughin went in the water) they were able to reach the surface and survive the night. Lightoller didn't even have a life jacket on, I don't remember off the top of my head if Gracie did. Suction has little to do with size and more to do with sudden rushes of water entering dry caveties, i.e. a window breaks into a relatively dry room or water reaches a deck vent and rushes down into the bowls of the ship. With the way the stern sank there wasn't much chance for the water to enter the small areas as the bow section did. That's why witnesses reported hearing explosions just after the ship completely disappeared. Upon discovery of the stern section, it is assumed these explosions were massive implosions that occured a few hundred feet from the surface.

Doing some quick research I learned that no, there was no chance of a whirlpool forming from the ship alone, but something else could’ve done it.

fun fact: there's actually a Titanic board game where the basic goal is this: Rescue as many passengers as you can before the ship sinks too much, get to a lifeboat before they're washed away, then try and manage your provision tokens (food and water) until the Carpathia arrives. My grandma has the game and I've played it a few times with my siblings and cousins.

There was one ship nearby that they were attempting to signal, but they were supposed to fire the rockets in one minute intervals to signal distress, and they fired them in five minute intervals instead. It's unknown for sure why this error occurred, but it's generally believed to be a training error, and stricter training is one of the many laws changed after Titanic sunk.

did you also know the titanic shouldnt of been in the water in the first place during the construction a fire broke out weakening the metal and damaging many thing, this caused some of the floors to already be flooded before the ship it the ice and sense the metal was weakened it allowed the ice to break the metal easier :)

There is also a reason the other ship didn't come, it's because they couldn't see them due to a like an ice cold version of a mirage, where the sky is reflected just above the waterlevel, hiding probably both the iceberg and ships in the area from one another. I really need to find back the documentary that explained it all

It wasn't the captain but the first officer but every thing else is correct

There's also the point that at the time, regulations didn't require as many lifeboats simply because ships with that size weren't meant to sink. Lifeboats were there just to get some people out of the ship *until* whatever happened was fixed to get them back to the ship. It's not even true that Titanic had too few lifeboats, at least according to regulations. Regulations just didn't require enough space for everyone (which is bonkers of course).

Huh I didn't know that about the titanic and as the old saying goes you learn something new everyday

@@Frenzyo that is a myth, there was a fire, but there was no casulties as a result of the fire. the idea that the fire had contributed to the sinking is a conspiracy theory which has been rebuked

I love hearing people talk about their passions, interests.

Descending* But yes, truly horrifying, and i don't say that lightly... I do wonder if anyone was ever held responsible for that. Frankly, i think the one who closed them in there should've been hanged, if not worse... I can imagine worse ways to die, but it certainly is up there... To die there in (i assume) the absolute dark, just waiting to die with your family (if you're lucky)... And no one remembers them either, so unbelievably sad...

Also don't forget those brave crew members who chose to stay inside to keep the power on. The amount of bravery and courage is incredible.

@@schnek8927 well I think it’s a bit much to say they should have been hanged. They were doing their best to keep the ship afloat and save SO many more lives. It’s not like they closed the doors with the hope and wish of killing someone, they closed those doors with the hope of saving so many more lives. They had no way of knowing that the boat was 100% going down so they tried to save it and everyone else on board. They weren’t maliciously trying to kill the people they locked in there. Those deaths ARE on their hands sure, but they shouldn’t be punished severely for it, they were trying to save as many lives as possible. But I mean this whole topic doesn’t matter since they’re all gone anyway and there’s nobody to punish.

I absolutley agree. I bet there were people in areas with air in the front section, just sinking withe the ship, decending all the way to the bottom. I thankfully cannot imagine how that must have felt, because I'm not sure I could handle knowing that feeling

@@schnek8927 Hanged is a bit much imo, because they were faced with the burden of being forced to choose between those people's lives or possibly the lives of everyone else on board. I don't think its in any way admirable that they condemned those people to their fate but I don't envy the position they were in to be forced to MAKE that choice. If anything, blame the designers who were arrogant enough to put living spaces that could be closed off with the watertight doors.

Some people who jumped too late were sucked underneath the ship due to the suction.

@@cometvaudin2850 True. If you didn't die from the pressure you sure as hell died from the lack of oxygen at such a depth plus freezing temps. Absolutely horrifying 😟

Not a single engine worker made it out alive since they all willingly stayed down there to keep the lights on in hope the others would survive because of it

The last one just made me sick omg

@@turtlyaturtleperson2788 well I doubt they did that willingly tbh. I read that they were locked in down there so they couldn't get out on their own... terrifying

Link?

S.S?

I heard that,I think, the ships designer was a coward and jumped into a life boat while the captain went honorably down with the ship.

@@disneygirl3630 And I heard that wasn't an accurate recount of what happened with that guy. I heard he got onto a lifeboat eventually, but only after helping others get to safety, and only got on when there was no one else around to take a spot. Someone in the press wanted to defame him and so labeled him as a coward.

holy…🤭 that’s actually so scary

A veteran I used to look after years ago, was in WWII. He was on a ship that was close to another that was torpedoed and the Captain wouldn't allow them to go and help because he was afraid their ship would go down if it was too close to them. He heard their screams. He had night terrors for over 60 years.

And he had nightmares and flashback every homerun and stuff the poor kid…

And that was a reverse mirage with the Californian…

I remember him from an interview I watchad about a year ago and what he said about the screams and the silence has stuck with me. Very chilling

That’s amazing. Absolute heroes.

@@karnerblue7658 legendary Heroes on that Ship. They litterally Pushed it to the Braking Point. and went down with it. RIP.

They’re the heroes of the Titanic! Sad that shows and movies don’t show them (only in documentaries)

@@LuisAngelSantos well we did see a clip of it in in Titanic (1977)

Most of them died first

"Gentlemen, playing with you has been an honor."

I can’t remember WHERE it is, it may be in the place in Belfast where it was made, but somewhere this historical like place has these tall black plaques that have pictures of the band members, placed in the order they were in while they were playing when the ship went down.

Wallace Hartley, John Woodward, Roger Bricoux, John Hume, John F.P Clarke, Georges Krins, Percy Taylor and Theodore Brailey

@@chocolinakatzroy5085 There is a room with those black plaques in the Titanic museum in Gatlinburg Tennessee! They also have the original violin that Hartley(I think) played that night.

@Dickey Spouse music in a way is to express emotions

Was the weak iron and bolts exclusive to Titanic? Because Olympic survived her entire career even after being rammed by the Hawke and she was fine. Olympic also rammed a U-boat and sank it.

@@rothgamez the Olympic although very similar in its design, used different materials in its production, including the introduction of a platinum and iron keel. Expenses were spared on its interior, although identical to the titanic the quality of woods and materials were much cheaper.

@@effyelle8681 I gotcha. I was just curious because I knew Titanic cut costs in certain places here and there, so that makes sense that they would try for different building materials too.

I saw in a documentary once that there was an uncontrolled fire in the engine rooms or something, that had been going since departure that contributed to the titanic sinking. Was this true?

What do you think about people's theories that the Olympic was the ship that went down and the new ship the titanic didn't actually set sail but was disguised as another ship.
