      They would have passed out well before 500 feet they would probably passed out around 250 if they were still able to breath do to Nitrogen Narcosis. The gas compressing in the compartment would have put greater volumes of nitrogen in their blood stream and they would have e become very drunk very fast so they probably wouldn’t know what happen to them because they would have slipped into a drunken black out

      I'm sure it felt like an hour for those sinking, but overall it's not as bad as it could have been. Your brain is pretty delicate, and the concept of "pain" only really applies to the conscious mind, so they likely passed out very quickly and didn't experience the full pain of implosion.

      The bow probably would have been completely filled by the time of the final plunge so nobody alive would have had to experience being trapped there for hours on end until the bow imploded. Plus, most of the 1500 victims died by hypothermia, not drowning or being trapped in the ship.

      The other issue is that being exposed to, and immersed in, such extreme cold means you could be potentially left paralysed in shock. This could and likely would also affect your breathing.
      You can die that way too. And many did. This explains many of the floating dead bodies that were discovered, while many others would have been sucked down by the whirlpool effect created as the rest of the ship began its final descent.

      What’s worse is most of the people back then wouldn’t have been educated on any of this stuff so it goes into the fear of the unknown aswell they knew the water would be cold but not that cold they didn’t know the lights would go out or even if there would be sharks around that would eat them even tho there r no killer sharks in the Atlantic but they wouldn’t have known they prob still believed in megladons and krakens anol back then

    I was a freediver for quite a long time and I can tell that after 50 seconds inside a cabin or confined space, nobody would worry about pressure or freezing darkness after inhaling and get choked by sea water. In just a few seconds comes total unconsciousness no matter what pressure does to human bodies. Nevertheless, in a shipwreck those who swim away have always the best chance, and - in mi opinion - you better die from hypothermia than drowned inside a cabin.
    I think that the worst occurs when victims of a developing accident, became aware of the inevitable.

    If you were trapped inside an air pocket the air would be compressed to the same pressure of the surrounding water, therefore you would be able to breathe as normal. However after about 500 feet HPNS begins to set in. This probability wouldn't bother you much as you'd be under the effects of extreme nitrogen narcosis starting at 80 to 120 feet for most people and by 300 feet (unless you're Sheck Exley) you'd be completely unaware of your surroundings.

    I was a young girl when the Barbara Stanwyck version of Titanic was broadcast on television. My father explained to me that it was a true story. In my naivete, I asked why the ship couldn't have had divers go down to retrieve items and remains. My father lovingly and patiently explained the depth and the pressures. Fast forward about 3 decades or so and...meet Robert Ballard. Then, along came James Cameron. Now you explain the part that has been avoided until now. Even with all the explication, I still feel the same sadness I felt as a young girl, knowing all those people died because of the arrogance and hubris of a few men. Its comforting to know that they didn't suffer too long.

      Well the fact is, both deaths take you to the bottom of the ocean. Sinking with the ship is scarier, but much more faster. And freezing to death is so much slower and so much more agonizing.

      Yeah but there's a huge difference. The titanic started from the surface and descended through the progression of atmospheric pressure which is why it took about 15-20 seconds for the passengers to die.
      The Titan Submersible on Sunday imploded when it was already in an extremely high atmosphere of pressure. So those 5 passengers died in literally a millisecond. Not 15-20 seconds lol

    Many, many of these people were killed instantly by the steel, iron, other parts of the ship, and furnishings that were falling and being violently thrown about (including one massive funnel) and by the fact that their own bodies were flung helter skelter, especially those on the stern who fell/slid rapidly across the very long deck. My bet is that many were unconscious or dead before this descent even occurred. Had there been a chance to do autopsies, it's my guess that most of those who went down with the ship would have evidenced fatal injuries rather than drowning or hypothermia (the latter being more applicable to those who jumped or fell into the sea).

    Great video! Question, what would happen to the bodies trapped deep inside the ship? Would not the decay have been slower? There were still recognizable human remains when they brought the C.S.A. Hunley to the surface, well over 150 years later. I know it was in silt, in a shallower depth, but the remains were intact. I read that one reason the remains from the Hunley survived is due to lack of oxygen. Wouldn't that apply to two miles beneath the surface, where Titanic is? Also, the temperature at the Titanic's depth is much colder than that of the study on the pigs.

      The heat barely would have had time to dissipate to the water by the time you were flattened, your brain would need far more time to interpret it than it took them to drop 500 feet through water, all while being quickly crushed to death. I too thought he had glossed over it before realizing it barely would have made an impact in that time.
      The people on the surface, on the other hand, floated there slowly freezing until they could no longer tread water, whereby they sank and slowly drowned. A much worse fate than implosion, if you ask me.

    Can I be picky & historically accurate for a sec? There weren't 20 boats in the water. Titanic had a total of 20 boats, but 2 of them were never launched. They simply ran out of time. There's a really cool doc on Disney+ where they discuss this. It's alleged that officer Murdoch was actually swept off the ship while attempting to lower one of the last life boats. He didn't shoot himself, like in James Cameron's movie. They've even pin pointed the divot he was using to lower the boats in the wreckage. It's turned inward, instead of out. This means that when the ship went under, the divot was in the correct position for lowering. Investigators have also reenacted the lifeboat loading & lowering process to see how long it would've taken to lower & launch all the life boats. Per their calculations, 2 hours wasn't quite enough time to launch all 20.
    Anyway, I highly recommend watching the 2 Titanic docs on Disney+. They were super interesting!
