The guy who is so taken aback by the ethnic “slurs” from the recounts is soy annoying. This is the type of person wanting statues and and peoples twains books removed from “polite” society. Is that his stance? If not get over it. It makes you seem like you have the white guilt. And if not then you are giving fuel to these weirdos that do. Its a historical account and uses the parlance for the day. And really thank god we have these accounts so we can see the progress. Its annoying listening to you judge these people by todays standards. Erasing history has got to be one of the all time dumb ideas being pushed by lefties today. There is many seems like they currently have a monopoly on bad ideas . Great series here but that guy was ridiculous and really took away from history pretty much mocking history acting like it was an affront to his senses. This is what we call confession through projection. Also I believe it’s supposed to be the funny guy that was doing this. He is not particularly funny , throw enough shit against the wall sure be some funny there, but be doesnt help what is a fascinating series. Sorry its my opinion and it may be wrong to many, but censorship should never be a thought that goes through anyone in A free society. Stop censoring history its retarded

To wit: being drunk in any kind of cold conditions will accelerate and worsen hypothermia as it’s a vasodilator. You feel warm because your blood follows to the surface of your skin and will more efficiently carry away your body heat. This is not one of those 25% of disasters where being drunk is a good idea.

i think people miss that a lot of the "survival benefits" of drunkenness through trauma are psychological. not even just in the case of hypothermia. i mean if you don't.. sorta... get the gist of what i'm saying, you've never been or known someone drunk enough to not know they needed to go to the hospital until 12 hours after an injury/accident that definitely obviously, required the hospital, or in conditions un-intoxicated people find unbearable. someone mentioned meth farther up in another one of these nittypicky threads about the alcohol+trauma thing, and the same is true with that drug; people 'surviving' gunshot wounds etc just haven't gone into any kind of shock. yeah 'alcohol dilates the blood vessels' i know i know stewie said it to brian that one time like 20+y ago and everyone has actualy'd that point so much since that even people who weren't born when that episode of family guy aired say it unironically now without knowledge of this "actually" chain having such an insufferable mainstream origin. but the practice does have an origin and reasoning, alcohol and other "things that are bad for you" do help people bear traumas, like burns or the cold/certain kinds of stress, and physical pain-- if not in actuality, as far as they know. which (to a point) is all that matters. so when shit hits the fan just get shittier bc you probably got better luck, tbh. unless you're the guy who starts swinging and crying 2 beers in. *edit: i come from a family of medical professionals who are historically also hardy salty northeastern drunks, so take that how you will

To shed some clarity on why people acted the way they did in the evacuation, if you were in a shipwreck in late 1800 to early 1900’s you typically had wedged yourself into a reef, so you were safest on the ship until another ship came along. It was common to spend several days on a ship this way until rescue (or your ship finally broke apart on the waves). As lifeboats weren’t common, and there were never enough for everyone on board, most of the time the only way of rescue was to go hand-over-hand on a rope to another boat, which most women and children could not do. It was very common for ships to lose every single woman and child on board in the event of a wreck. Thus, space on lifeboats was often reserved for women and children first because it was the only way they could be rescued. So yeah, typically you were better off staying on the boat, and it would be a dick move to take a seat on a lifeboat if you were capable of evacuating the ship via rope, and most of the men would be more worried about their families because typically they had a very good chance of surviving a shipwreck and their wives/children had a very low chance of surviving. Most of them probably didn’t even realize that refusing a lifeboat would get them killed.

Excellent point. For example see: The wreck of the SS Atlantic in the 1870s. Every women and child save for one 13-year-old boy died. It was also a White Star Liner. The channel Part-Time Explorer has an incredibly well-made documentary about it.

Captain Rostron was a fucking legend. The crew of the Carpathia defied everything the ship was supposed to be capable of to get there as fast as possible and be as well-prepared to save people as they could. The Carpathia saved all 705 surviving people from the Titanic. Another fucking legend, who does not get enough credit in the frankly awesome story of the Carpathia, is Harold Cottam. Harold Cottam was the radio operator on the Carpathia - the only radio operator, for the ship's only radio transmitter. The Carpathia didn't maintain 24-hour radio traffic, and since Titanic started sinking in the middle of the night, Harold Cottam was off-duty. He'd left his transmitter on while he was getting ready for bed. A transmission came through from Newfoundland that gee, there sure was a big backlog of private messages waiting to get through to the Titanic. Harold, in his pajamas and desperate to go to bed, decided he'd be nice and let the Titanic know that they had messages waiting for them. That's how the Carpathia received the distress signal at all. Because he was trying to get in touch with the Titanic to let them know that Newfoundland was trying to get ahold of them on the transmittor. He was just trying to do a nice thing for some people, even though it midnight and he was off-duty, and it saved 705 lives. In the immediate aftermath of the rescue, Cottam stayed up for days on end trying to get word from the survivor's to their loved ones that they'd made it. The press hassled the hell out of him while he did this, and he reportedly received bribes worth 3 times his annual salary to stop trying to facilitate messages to families and start telling the press all the juicy details about the disaster instead. He refused. The story of their Carpathia and her crew is amazing. Those people went above and beyond, for no gain, just out of dedication to doing the best they could for other humans. They weren't first responders by trade, they were just guys working on a boat, and they saved 705 lives. I know that's not what the listeners of this podcast normally go in for, but it's worth knowing, and worth thinking about. A little more on-brand for WTYP is that how the Californian fucked up and then lied about it.

Apparently when I was like, 4 or 5 when Katrina was in the news I asked if dubya was responsible for the lack of life boats on the Titanic. So maybe he specifically didn't do titanic, but I was probably on the right track about useless politicians allowing disasters to be far worse than they needed to be.

I think it's interesting how much of the story of Titanic was intertwined with romantic myth of the era from the very beginning. Among other things, when SS Valencia grounded on a reef off British Columbia in 1906, all of the women and children aboard were lost. One of the most evocative stories in this period tragedy? The survivors on the only lifeboat to be successfully launched, as they were lowered, hearing the doomed passengers trapped aboard singing "Nearer, My God, to Thee." Did they actually do that? Who knows! But it seems likely that, as one of the most memorable shipwrecks of that period, it influenced the (similarly speculative) association of that hymn with RMS Titanic six years later, and of course it would go on to be an inextricable part of Titanic lore the same way Titanic completely overshadowed Valencia or the later Princess Sophia (both, obviously, sinking with far fewer souls aboard). Fantastic commentary and a fantastic guest. It's really interesting to see the disaster analyzed like any other engineering disaster, rather than as some kind of parable. Titanic looms so large in popular culture that it almost seems weird to see it contextualized as-in some sense-a disaster made inevitable by complacency rather than malfeasance, befalling a vessel that was more or less ordinary rather than a sui generis embodiment of incautious hubris. Absolutely the best episode of WTYP yet in my opinion

The song was really more a product of Wallace Hartley specifically telling his friends that he would play it last if he ever knew he was about to die in a shipwreck. That said, the version he knew and would have played was completely different from either of the two versions played in any of the various movies based on the event, which *is* probably because of SS _Princess._

At which point the magazine under turret 2, full of 18 inch shells, exploded in a mushroom cloud seen 100 miles away. That's the reason there's so few survivors from that ship.

Not to 'well Actually', but as an important safety PSA: Being drunk does NOT help with hypothermia, it actually makes it SIGNIFICANTLY worse. The way alcohol effects your bloodflow may make you feel warmer but in reality catastrophically impairs your body's ability to protect itself from extreme cold. You will freeze much, much faster and with less chance of recovery if you're drunk. If you're in a situation where you're seriously cold and you think having some alcohol will warm you up, resist the urge, because it's more likely to kill you.

A distant relative of mine was on the Titanic and he survived, he was in 3rd class and was told to go back to his cabin and he decided maybe he should leave when water started gushing in under the door, when he got on deck he eventually got to collapsible B lifeboat, but before it was launched water was already gushing round it so along with some firemen he jumped into the water and then as the lifeboat was washed overboard he grabbed onto it as it floated near the forward funnel, moments later the funnel came crashing down. After that he managed to climb in he was in waist high deep water, he describes how people were pushing people away to stop it from being overwhelmed, now he says in his witness testimony it was others, but my friend keeps telling everyone he was the one pushing people away. Oh and then after that some guy asked how many catholics were on board and all of them started saying the Lord prayer and then hail mary.

The Safety Third reminded me of the time the company I worked for got kicked off a site. We were working on the renovations at the Celgene complex in Summit NJ. My boss didn't give enough power to the project manger so he was forced to be there all the time so that pissed him off. He just wanted to smoke weed in the office with his partner and wife. After the foreman got a heart attack a 26 year old that the boss labeled as a "junior mechanic" took over. After completing the first phase of the renovations we were tasked in demoing old rigid pipes in the second phase. I was given this guy who the substitute foreman called "Dippy Danny" to help cut away these pipes on the second floor. The only way I saw it possible to cut them out without hitting everything as they crash to the ground was to tie some pull string on one end with Danny holding the string. Danny apparently never saw tree cutters work before and had a hard time understanding what we were doing but we never fucked shit up. One morning I asked the boss what's the best way of doing this and he said "hold on tight." An hour later two other people didn't hold on tight enough and wrecked an active sprinkler head. I was told they stood back in amazement since they never saw so much water running out a pipe before. I would have done the same thing. That day the boss had a meeting with the GC about other things about the project. We were thrown out 2 days later. Elk Electric sucked ass. They had a bunch of 3 year apprentices teaching each other.

Robert Ballard finding the Titanic was even more Cloak and Dagger than you realize. Ballard's mission was to check on two lost US nuclear subs and make sure nothing had happened to them (lost as in sunk, not disappeared, they knew about where they were). The goal was to make sure nothing had happened to them in the intervening decades, either tampering from the Soviets or catastrophic environmental damage and ultimately neither was reported. Ballard was an Oceanographer but also a Commander in the Naval Reserve so the Navy gave him this Mission to find the subs under the cover standard oceanographic research which is what the French were doing there, they had no idea what Ballard and his submersible was doing they were just studying ocean currents or something while Ballard was studying "Ocean Bottom Features" or something. Ballard struck a deal with the Navy though that after he finished up with the subs if there was still time left he wanted to go search for the Titanic. The search for the Titanic wasn't a cover story as neither of the subs was lost near where the Titanic went down so it would have been pretty odd to claim that and be in the wrong part of the ocean. Ballard had however been talking about using the submersible ALVIN to search for the Titanic for a while including as part of this voyage (hoping he would get that time) and after he did the Navy's bidding he did just that, apparently much to the surprise of the French crew. Ballard actually used what he learned about debris fields from investigating the lost nuclear subs to help him figure out the best way to attack the search for the Titanic and was able to find it almost immediately. And the rest they say is history. Shitty Schmaltzy history starring Whitney Houston and Dances With Wolves

Cold water is no joke. I moved to Racine WI which is right on lake Michigan, 2nd straight week of warm weather me and my friend Niko decided to go to the beach, there's these long piles of boulders acting as wave breaks, we went out, only having experience in small lakes I had no idea how deep the water was or how freezing it is also when your 150 plus feet out, I told Niko not to worry I'm a great swimmer (I am). I dove in and almost immediately upon hitting the water I was shocked, felt like I exhaled as soon as I got under water, by the time I made it to the surface mind you maybe 3-5 seconds at best my arms and legs felt as though I had been swimming none stop for hours upon hours, was really having trouble making it back to the rocks, felt like I wasn't gonna make it. I was trying to tell Niko not to jump in but I couldn't speak I could hardly breath, he dives in I was struggling to pull myself up, I see he is super struggling, he wasn't a good swimmer at all he wasn't making any progress back to the rocks, I remember thinking I can't go get him, then I pushed off the rocks towards him, if people hadnt been out on those rocks to pull us out of the water when we got back I don't think either one of us would have made it out of the water that day. I felt pretty guilty for a long time knowing my first thought was I can't get him, I told him that a couple years later and his response was the best. "You feel guilty because you thought you were gonna die if you tired to save me, but swam out to save me? How the fuck does that make you feel guilty, don't be stupid, thanks for coming to get me"

Regarding the significant size difference between the American and French flags on the Knorr, it's actually standard and correct. Flags are not all the same shape, even though 2:3 (like the French flag) is very common, there are many flags in other ratios like 3:4 or 1:2. The US flag's proportion is, in fact, 10:19. So if you keep the height the same, the US flag will be significantly wider than many European flags. I'm not sure why it's so wide, though. Seems to have been that way from the beginning. Maybe it's because longer flags look better when hung vertically as banners and they didn't want two designs? Of course, only the government itself actually has to use flags in the ratio of 10:19, most flags produced commercially are in other ratios like 2:3, 5:8, or 3:5.

They said they'd be there in 4 hours, but actually arrived in about 3.5 hours, having travelled at their absolute maximum, all-boilers-running speed the whole way, dodging more icebergs of their own. They turned off their own heating to make sure there more steam was going to the engines, and had passengers converting the ballroom into a triage hospital. They arrived about an hour and a half after the Titanic sank, but still managed to rescue ~700 survivors, spending 4 hours combing through the darkness with boats and torches. They were the ONLY ship to rescue survivors. Captain Arthur Rostron literally jumped out of bed, determined to move heaven and earth and everything in between, to save lives - his crew are the true heroes of the story.

Lesson learned: Pump enough CO2 into the atmosphere so the temps rise and the icebergs melt faster

Being a crew member on the Titanic, and when someone asks me if they can get in the lifeboat I go, "I don't know, *can* you?"

I saw a video about the Andrea Doria and learned that the number of divers who have died exploring the wreck is around half the number of people who died in the actual sinking

really not too bothered by ridiculously long eps, but honestly maybe next time a big topic like this is selected the gang should just go in with the intention of splitting it into a miniseries from the start, both for ease of listening and editing, but also so then the recording session could be broken up too? like, this could easily have become a 3 to 5 ep thing and also no one involved in the making of it would've come out feeling like death 😬

It fits with many episode of just how the system set up the Fitz up for it’s sinking. Everything went wrong in just the tight way.

The idea of cruise ships really started in the 1920’s when liners would on the days between scheduled sailings sail out of New York 12 miles and open the bars to allow the passengers to get thoroughly and legally pissed.

So... not only was Prohibition bad in its own right, it also gave us cruise ships? Damn.

Or the other animated Titanic movie where some sharks trick an octopus into throwing an iceberg into the ship's path, to help a Bond villain attain whaling rights (yes, this is real). Or the other, OTHER Titanic film where the main couple from the first film stumble upon Atlantis.
