Great vid!👍
Wonderful!
I love this video and I like your channel
Cool vid
great video thanks for all your work, I've subbed 😊. BTW, as a wee lad I traveled on both Queens and SS United States at very end of their service, so this vid hits me hard
Hey I really appreciate it! Also, that must've been quite the experience huh!
2:50 That was the Olympic before the Titanic's sinking; she didn't have her full lifeboat complement yet
4:15 Giuseppe Verdi, Italy's great opera composer (Aida, La Traviata, Nabucco and many others), died in January of that year. He was 87
There is something so majestic seeing a ship being launched down a slipway. Having attended several, they never tire being an awesome event. Even better is being along side the actual slipway and witnessing the hull sliding into the water. The current "launching" via flooding a drydock is nowhere as imposing.
They never tire or you never tire of seeing them?
10:30 I hear the Great Eastern had a double hull which enabled her to survive a collision with an uncharted rock needle off Montauk Point, Long Is. thanks to her double hull and strong transverse braces. The rock needle was later named Great Eastern Rock
2:59 Contrary to popular belief the Titanic received fairly little attention and publicity; the Olympic as her older sister got the bulk of that
12:48 Oh so there was a second Mauretania
What is the music called at approximately 9:08 mins into this video please? We really want to know 🙏
That music is called: W. A. Mozart, Symphony No.38 in D major
It’s a really nice piece of music!
Thank you so much! We love it.
2:53 That was the year of Halley's comet
5:54 Sir Edward Elgar who wrote the Pomp and Circumstance marches died in February that year
Hi
The Mauritania looks weird when launched 😂😅😂😅
11:06 That was the year Clyde Tombaugh discovered Pluto
5:54 Until the Queen Mary's launch the Olympic had been the largest British-built vessel for 21yrs
0:42 were the engines running or was it just the flow of water spinning it?
The engines were not installed, it was the flow of water spinning the propellers
1:43 "Rex" which means "king" in Latin
0:08 imperator 0:38 oceanic II
0:08 "Imperator" means "emperor" in Latin
10:09 Mickey Mouse made his debut that year on Sunday November 18th
Titanic
I am curious why some of these vessels were launched with their screws installed and some not? 🤔
Put the TITANIC in the video the titanic is the most famous ship how could anyone forget the titanic
Titanic DOES appear in the video. How could you miss it? Check at 4:43
Damn the Oceanic was the ship Arthur Morgan was on in that one mission.
Aarrrrggh I broke the goddamn wheel! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
6:25 Good thing she was rechristened Britannic; the name Gigantic would've been too plain. for one thing, and they were already building bigger ships in Germany
Britannic was never christened in general. Also, there is no record that the White Star Line intended to name Britannic “Gigantic”
@@nboceanlinerhistory There's mention of "Gigantic" in some docs
12:22 "Vaterland" means "homeland" in German
Titanic😢😢😢😢😢😥😥😥😥😥😥
What about the Edmund fitzgerald
Not an ocean liner
12:36 Bavaria? Landlocked Bavaria?!
Yes. Even Bavarians were able to travel to German shores at the time ;)
What about the titanic?
no, there only was one footage ever found on titanic (so far), it’s titanic nearing her completion in Belfast
edit: only photographs remain, and the footage of her launch has been lost.
Its believed there is 5 different pieces of footage taken of Titanic. And of course, only 1 is known to exist today. I will probably be making a video talking about this lost footage sometime in the near future.
@nboceanlinerhistory there are photographs still around today
5:01 "The event was captured on film but the film has since been lost"
I your 7th viewr
Geez why couldn’t they Just launch the ships the same year they took their maiden voyage?!🚢🍾
The fitting out process took a really long time. Just imagine all the components that go into fitting out the interior of these floating palaces.
The fitting out process takes about 1-2 years because they have to add the funnels and interior and exterior
@adorasas9096 why cant you figure out something so simple geez!
imperator you mean limperator right? lmao
NO!
@@TitanicsailorBoy546 you know that was a common nick name for it right?
You mean rms majestic? At 5:08
Yes RMS Majestic was launched as the German liner "Bismarck" in 1914
