The Final Hours of TITANIC - New 2024 Animation

112 years ago today, the RMS Titanic sank to the bottom of the North Atlantic in one of the most talked about events in human history.
This is that event - in real-time - as it actually happened.
Witness the iceberg collision, every lifeboat launching, wireless message, heroic escape, the break, the foundering and more - based primarily on survivor testimony and the work of renown researcher Sam Halpern.
Featuring:
350+ Unique VFX Shots
46 real-life quotes from survivors, victims, and wireless messages.
40+ Interior sinking shots
14 songs from White Star Line songbook
10 months of research, animation, rendering, writing, editing and sound mixing
3 hours of highly detailed informational text to guide the viewer through the sinking
All rendered in 4K in Unreal Engine 5.3
This animation was created by Jack Gibson and the TITANIC: HONOR & GLORY team. And produced in part by RMS Titanic, Inc, Atlantic Overseas Pictures Television and Bungalow Entertainment.

Agree. Big improvement.

Perhaps more research and animation is currently ongoing for the 2025 version?

It’s amazing how much times change. I became fascinated with Titanic in middle school, when I read A Night to Remember, in 1981 or 1982. Then a few years after, Ballard found the wreck. I remember buying the National Geographic that had the story and consuming it. I bought as many books about the Titanic because I could find, to help me imagine it better. How could I have imagined that as a middle-aged man, I could be watching a video of the sinking in real time, whenever I wanted on a thing called KZbin, with such exquisite animation that it’s almost like being there. I couldn’t dream of this as a teenager. Thanks for the hard work that must have gone into this.

The shot of the Olympic really took me aback, almost like there was a duplicate Titanic. It really adds yet another frustrating perspective to the tragedy.

[@mided2119]

Titanic was Olympic’s sisters ship and the second of the Olympic-class trio (Olympic, Titanci and Britannic). Titanic was, basically, a duplicate of Olympic, not the other way around. They were identical in appearance , but Titanic was a bit larger than Olympic and Britannic was larger than both her older sisters. White Star wanted to finish the Olympic-class trio with their most elegant and largest ship ever; sadly, she never got to see passenger service.

[@MrEslender]

What’s frightens me the most is how normal it was at the start. After hitting the iceberg the passengers have a quick look for the source of the disturbance and then it’s alls well let’s have a jolly with the loose ice on deck. Everything went on like the other nights of the voyage so far with just a minor blip in the night time routine, nothing to worry about everything is fine let’s go back to bed and I’ll see you tomorrow morning at breakfast. How it went from that to the horror that unfolded a couple of hours later. Is beyond belief.

Tuning into this last night in real time was one of the most haunting experiences I’ve been a part of. I’ve studied Titanic religiously since I was 7 and not since my first time watching the infamous final plunge scene from the Cameron movie has something like this had me on the verge of a panic attack, and yet I can’t turn away, because like you gents said, “If they had to experience it, we have to experience it.” I think about the nerves of steel they must’ve had in confronting certain death and physically being there, whether on the ship or witnessing it from a lifeboat, and I’m over here shaking just watching a computer animation on a screen from the comfort and warmth of my home. You guys truly outdo yourselves every single year. Thank you as always for helping to bring this tragedy one step further into the public eye and giving those who lost their lives the pedestal they so rightly deserve.

It is obvious in hindsight. Many people believed that the ship is unsinkable and the fact that the ship appeared to be normal for a while made it difficult to not just accept but the even believe that the ship is doomed. Lets not forget that they were in pitch black night, calm waters and at first it looked but a scratch which can be managed by the watertight doors and maybe the pumps if needed. We have to be always careful judging things from the future when we know the outcome, not everything is a clear cut in the beginning or even in the middle of the events... I mean just some of those comments made by passengers about "i'd try my chance with the steamer"... and potentially giving a smirk of "i know better" ... I mean the captain was even in a position where he had to reevaluate his own beliefs "I cannot imagine any condition which would cause a ship to founder. Modern shipbuilding has gone beyond that" The fact that he did and essentially that quickly is a testament of his mental skills, many people were and are unable to shake of false beliefs ever or years... and here is the captain going through that in just a few ten minutes.

I don’t know if you have ever viewed the HBO miniseries on Chernobyl, but there’s a quote that I can attribute to Titanic; “We are dealing with something that has never occurred on this planet before.” Sure, ships and lives had been lost at sea before, but no vessel this large or such a serious loss of life to this scale had ever happened in the years prior. Shows how no one could have conceived of this kind of disaster; it just hadn’t happened yet, and then it did. Always a major shock to mankind when news breaks about a watershed moment like this especially as we continue to develop as a whole, but it’s a whole other level for those who experience these events firsthand.

[@samfromportadown]

His actual last words were reported as "Gentlemen, I bid you farewell." "It has been a privilege playing with you tonight" is an invention of James Cameron. As regards things that people on the Titanic said or did, James Cameron has become a kind of latter day Shakespeare, in that people think his invented version is what actually happened. Shakespeare is notorious for having invented things that people today think historical people said, when there is no record of them saying such a thing at all. The supposed last words of Julius Caesar, "et tu, Brute" are an infamous example of this.

It’s been 112 years since the date of the demise. And yet her story lives on in legend, the work put in to make everything remind us on what happened on the cold night on April 15 , 1912. And I’m pleasantly surprised by the dark cloud that followed after she sank. Very lovely touch.

I like how you included the ships that picked up the distress call. Btw, did you know that there was an alternate script for the James Cameron movie where the Olympic was to be featured in a scene answering Titanic's distress call much how she did in real life but the idea scrapped because the Olympic scene was going to use the Titanic set.

[@SouthoftheHill]

A general discussion about this. What is it about this ship that has millions of us just so fascinated that even after 112 years, people still talk about her? I find that so mesmerizing!

[@nick37104]

Because she was one of a kind, and because so much went so wrong. If more attention had been paid to the ice warnings. If the lookouts had seen the berg a few seconds earlier or later she might have hit the berg differently or missed. If Murdoch hadn't been able to turn the ship exactly when he did, maybe they'd have hit the berg head-on and it would have been horrifically damaged, but stayed afloat longer or not sunk at all. If Californian was the mystery ship Titanic saw (I assume it was), and had woken up her wireless operator and discovered what was going on, could she have saved countless more lives? Or if any other ship had been closer, could they? Titanic is a ship that had around 10 things go wrong all on the same night, and if even one of those wrongs had gone right, the outcome may have been drastically different.

[@redshirt49]

@@nick37104 Well, one of a kind...there were two others just like her. Though Brittanic was modified so that it could not be sunk by the same kind of damage that did in the Titanic. It was pretty much impossible for the lookouts to see the bergs on that night, the sky was clear and there was no moon, which makes for absolute darkness on the horizon. The only way to see the ice bergs was to watch for stars disappearing above the (nigh invisible) horizon. This is part of the reason why Smith was advised against sailing through there in the first place. If the ship had collided head-on with the Berg, it would likely have been fine as it was built to withstand frontal collisions without issue. Well, anyone in the forward two compartments would have been crushed to death, but still she would not have sunk under those conditions. Notably, Californian was sitting in that same ice field waiting for better light conditions before continuing on, because well....... ice bergs. They were only about 5 miles from where Titanic sank. They could have been there within 20-30 minutes. So yeah, it was DEFINITELY the ship they saw. And of course, the lookouts on that ship saw Titanic, they were even close enough to tell what kind of ship it was. One of them reported he saw them sending up the rockets, saw the deck lights were flickering and that it was sticking out at an odd angle, all of which they reported to the Captain, all of which he decided to ignore and went back to sleep. Some time later they saw the lights go out entirely and concluded "Oh, they must have left". In the years that followed he maintained that it's not like he could have done any more than Carpathia once it arrived, which simply isn't true. At the time of the Titanic's sinking, hundreds of people were treading the freezing waters. By the time Carpathia arrived much later, all but a few dozen of them had died of hypothermia. Those without life jackets likely seized and drowned. If he had ordered the Titanic contacted via telegraph after the first distress rockets went up, they could have been there before the ship even went under.

I thought for a very long time that nothing would surpass Titanic Animation's real time sinking and whilst I still personally quibble over the timing of the well deck being flooded (I still think it happened slightly later, and quicker, than shown, an aspect I think TA gets correct in their animation), this one, by far gets everything else right in my eyes, particularly those final 5 minutes and particularly that final plunge. It was absolutely terrifying to see that "wave" which swept up both Archibald Gracie and Clinch Smith. Also, the timings of the first and second funnels falling, along with the break up, I feel, are spot on too. I have always believed that those final 5 minutes were very chaotic with events happening almost all at once. You've done an excellent job at capturing the chaos, so much so I was frightened and almost in tears watching it! Exceptional work all round!

I stayed up to watch the Live Stream last night & you guys have really kicked up the content by showing so much more interior shots of flooding.... It gives a great feel for what was happening inside of the ship, & the slow ominous rise of water is terrifying. The interior shots are tops, absolutely awesome/excellent work there! One thing- i know you'll probably never change this, but will say it anyway (& you guys had mentioned it during the stream last night)..... This needs to be as dark as possible, it still looks like Titanic sinking under a full moon. I know what everyone is going to say - "well, if we did it accurately nobody would see anything since it was pitch dark out that night" ..... By illuminating it like a full moon, everyone is too enamored of details on the ship to let the true horror of that night sink in. Some things are best seen with the mind, & not the eyes.... So in the dark, not seeing much, but hearing the screams & the sound of the ship tearing itself apart.... Is it any wonder why the survivors were traumatized? .....

WOW. The new animation is incredible, accurate and very detailed. The way the ship plunges faster till break is very realistic imo. The decks quickly breaking and the sparks i think are reasonably realistic. The emergency lights aswell are more realistic with much more accurate flood times. I like the idea of the rapid plunging with the forward funnels falling half submerged seconds apart and seconds before break which i think accounts for loads of survivors such as Emily Ryerson. The stern rises at a realistic pace. I also like the idea of the list easing as the bridge submerges completely eased by the time water is at the first funnel which accounts for Edward Brown. I also like that it shows the damage to the aft tower. Even though their are a few things i don't necessarily agree with, i must say, very accurate and accounts for alot of testimonies.
