When I was 11 a small article appeared in our local paper concerning the Titanic and a Steward who had served on the ship at the time of the sinking. Shortly after this my class was told to do a project on any non fictional subject, needless to say I chose the Titanic even though there was little interest in general on the subject at the time. I managed to track down the Steward and after an exchange of letters I was invited to his home, I persueded my Dad to take me. He was a lovely man and quite well spoken, he told of how he was on the stern of the ship as the ship went down, how he survived in the sea until being picked up by a lifeboat and eventually transferred to another ship. I had more than enough information for my project. As my Dad and myself left his house he handed me some keys that he had in his pocket at the time of the sinking. As the years went by and I left school I joined the British Merchant Navy in which I served for many years. I'm in my mid 70's now but often think of that meeting that inspired me to go to sea.

The one crazy thing about the lifeboats on the Titanic. Conventional thought is that there were not enough lifeboats for everyone, which is true HOWEVER, two lifeboats were still left on the ship before she sank. Even if they had enough lifeboats, there wouldn't have been the time to launch them anyway. It's a shame they didn't fill up the first few though...
@lucasmembrane4763Ай бұрын
In addition, some say there were enough lifeboats for approximately all on board if the boats had been overloaded. This was an unanticipated option only because the sea was so calm that night that the boats might have stayed upright and afloat all night even when packed as tightly as possible with people standing up. The fear of the boats collapsing may have been completely wrong. The boats were said to have been very sturdy. And of course, there were 2,000+ life jackets on board that were worthless as life jackets in the cold water, and they could have been fastened together to make several large life rafts.

Well one thing you got right Yes the Titanic did hit an iceberg and sank as a result of it. After that there is nothing of value worth paying attention to. As for the reason it sank I will tell you why . As you may not know. The ship main frame had 9 huge compartments with walls seperating them from each other but one fatal flaw. They did not go to the top of that room. This meant that as water filled one chamber it would rise and spill over to the next chamber and then fill the next chamber until finally the last chamber was full of water and the weight of water in the early chambers did in fact tilt the ship downwards and at that point the stress caused the ship to break into two pieces and down she went to the depths below. You should give this sort of thing up because you got no idea what to do for accuracy. this is for sure. scale of 1 to 10?? sorry for me it is below 1. You sink like the Titanic
@dominicbuckley8309Ай бұрын
2:03 So the bottom of the hull is damaged, but the water comes *down* the stairs? 3:22 The Titanic was never referred to as 'unsinkable' *before* she sank. The gender divide in survivors was far greater than the class divide. While a passenger in first class was more than twice as likely to survive as one from third class, a woman (regardless of class) was four times more likely to survive than a man. As a result, the survival rate of women from third class was almost twice that of men from first class.

in 1912, it was not mandatory to have the wireless manned 24hrs. SS California had just gone off duty, and so would never receive Titanic's calls for help.

Col Gracie who was around asked an officer if an exception could perhaps be made (Gracie and Isidor were friends) but Isidor Straus wouldn't leave the ship with so many women and children still on board. Ida then declared "I will not be separated from my husband" and then to Isidor "Where you go , I go. As we have lived so we will die: together." The couple then sat down on deckchairs under the stars surrounded by havoc and turmoil. That's real love.

Ap, if the Titanic had hit the iceberg head on, it's unlikely that it would have sunk.

Why didn't they just slow down and hit the ice berg head on instead of trying to turn? It wouldn't have sunk

It is much easier said than done, Titanic or a large ship cannot just jam to an abrupt stop, it takes several minutes even just to slow down a bit, remember, that massive size, incredible weight and speed gliding across water, it's not like hitting a brake pedal and stopping on asphalt or concrete, furthermore slamming head on into the iceberg weighing several thousands of tons, would have ruptured plates further back on Titanic's side, popping out more rivets than in just a few compartments, from such a shock through the entire ship also may have shattered the keel from coming to an abrupt stop from nearly 25 mph or 22 1/2 kts. Titanic would have flooded rapidly and would have went under in minutes, everyone would have perished that night. Murdoch did the right thing to turn hard to Starboard, she turned at FULL speed, and in 35 seconds she hit, there was no time to slow her even a bit, even turning at full speed, it was too late

She would've most likely survived the crash if she'd hit the berg head-on
