@@taylorebenguard6998 There were plenty of mistakes that were excusable for their lack of knowledge, but the Titanic story has not mutated a whole lot in the past 25 years, though there have been some minor changes, such as the hallways, the first class staircase dome, the central propeller, etc. But much of the geography is wrong, even with the knowledge of the day, that makes no sense to change.
The Californian was way closer than that. Eva Hart, the last Titanic survivor who could remember anything, is quoted as saying; "it wasn't just lights on the horizon. You could see it was a ship!"
@AnimationFlow No, that was Millvina Dean who was two months old. Eva Hart was seven years old at the time of the sinking. She still vividly remembers the sinking, though, and has described the night in detail in multiple interviews. That sort of life event, in which she lost her father, forever leaves a mark.
For clarification, Californian wasn't moving at the time. She was stopped and her boilers were inactive due to field ice ahead of her. Titanic's crew called for help over Marconi wireless, lit rockets, and used their morse signal lamp. Though Californian's crew watched from afar, and alerted their captain a few times, Captain Lord lowkey ignored the rockets and only found out about the sinking the following day. It didn't really matter though. His ship was in no condition to help in any way.

Plus, putting a ship's boilers back online after being shut down entirely takes hours and hours. Captain Lord received a lot of backlash, and like the hatred J Bruce Ismay received, it's undeserved.
@@SaraRoseVaughan yeah but they had life boats at least cause the water that night was extremely calm it was like a once in a life time event they couldn’t at least tried to row despite being 6 miles away
The Californian was stopped, that light was their Morse lamp, but because of the distance between the Titanic and Californian, it was hard to make out the messages. Of course, the Californians' crew could've woken up their wireless operator.
@firingallcylinders2949 Yes, because: A. The Titanic's wireless operators were dealing with a massive backlog of messages and were working literally through the night to make up the delay (and were thus stressed and tired) B. They were trying to listen to the Cape Race land based outpost, which was so far away that it's signal was very faint and hard to hear from Titanic (wireless back then had no volume control; the closer you were, the louder it was and vice versa) C. The Californian (being within visual distance of the Titanic) was SO LOUD in the operators' ears, that they ripped their headsets off. Relating to the first point, they were also stressed out and thus told the Californian to "shut up" (which was not offensive, it was rapid shorthand for "please butt out, we are occupied", the wireless operator aboard Californian wasn't upset by this at all in later testimony) D. The Californian operator messed up (in his defense, he was new) and didn't add the appropriate message prefix to indicate "for urgent attention of the captain", which would have told the wireless operators to let Capt Smith know that the Titanic was less than a miles away from a massive ice field. As it were, the wireless operators (who didn't know where Californian was, just "close") didn't feel the need to report it to the Captain.
nah cause actually the split was wrong the rockets wasnt the right color it would’ve been much darker and william Murdoch did not shoot nobody and he never would’ve shot anyone and the list goes on :)
The most beautiful ship ever made. Newer ships from today don't come even close to the design of the Titanic. You don't even can call them ships nowadays but floating apartmentbuildings
It’s sad that everyone blamed the Californian captain but the Californian was not even close to ready that day and would be dangerous to be near the sinking titanic
I think the reason why people blamed The Californian was that it was the closest ship in the area. Carpathia was four hours away. The Californian operator also went to bed that night so he didn’t hear any signals from the Titanic.
@@Whitneypyant that was why they changed the maritime laws to require the wireless (and later radio) operators to keep the set active 24/7. It was a massive missed opportunity to save lives
Guys the Californian tried to warn the titanic that there was a ice berg coming but the titanic demanded them to be quiet so they thought that they knew so they turned off the signal
Don't know how the Californian could be "passing by" the Titanic, when by 10:21pm that night, her Captain, Stanley Lord, ordered his ship stop for the night due to heavy pack ice in their path. Captain Lord wasn't made aware of what was going on with the Titanic until the morning, when Californian's wireless picked up chatter from other ships about the Titanic having sunk in the wee hours of the morning.
Captain Lord was woken up twice about the rockets from the Titanic, he said they were just company flares and didn't order the ship to investigate. He should have at least had the wireless operator woken up.
@@aliciacoble7854 Yay but the operator what's asleep on the California Befor the Titanic most ships only had one maybe two operators It was only change after the Titanic, to have enough of these operators to have it operate for 24 hours
@@aliciacoble7854at the time, most ocean liners actually didn't have ship-employed wireless operators. White Star Line contracted with a company called Marconi to operate the wireless communications. But these Marconi employees weren't hired to send and receive messages that impacted ship operations. They were hired to send passenger communications back and forth, and charged the passengers themselves for these. Like an early form of text message. That being said, most operators did try to send other ships in the area notices of ice, and would take messages to the captain of the vessels if the Marconi operators thought it was important enough. Titanic had 2 Marconi operators on board. They'd been notified of icebergs several times and the captain knew. However, the sea was calm and the conditions extremely clear. Titanic had actually altered their course to veer more south to try to avoid the worst of the ice fields, but it unfortunately put them right in the path of a huge berg. That berg had even gotten way smaller as it had moved so far south that the warmer waters had melted a lot of it away. Unfortunately, it was still large enough to cause enough damage. Attitude at the time was that Titanic wasn't likely to sink anyway and had Titanic hit head on, she wouldn't have sunk. She'd have taken water and people still would have died, but the compartment walls would have done their jobs and held. First Officer Murdock was right in trying to turn though. No trained officer would have allowed the ship to hit head on if he could help it. By the time the lookouts had seen the thing, it was right on top of them because the conditions that night didn't show any water crashing against the iceberg, and the ice field had made the air right over the surface so cold that it caused a sort of optical illusion that hid it from view. The movie shows it clearly, but in reality, all the lookouts would have seen was a patch of black where the stars didn't shine. So, you have wireless operators who weren't hired or necessarily trained to handle vital ship communications and who were frantically trying to play catch up with backlogged passenger messages, a seasoned captain who had never had an incident like this in his entire career but who was trying to prove himself and his ship before his retirement, a freak rogue iceberg that was way further south than anyone thought it would be, odd weather conditions that essentially hid the iceberg until it was too late, a general attitude that Titanic couldn't sink anyway, and if it did and they needed to abandon ship, they the legal amount of lifeboats required for the time, which would have been used to ferry passengers back and forth from the sinking ship to another nearby one, as those shipping routes were used constantly. Statistically speaking, Titanic actually sinking and that many people dying due to these very specific circumstances was a mathematical impossibility.
He spent a VERY big part of this time on this ship. Even after the film, he continued with theories and research about it. He put a lot of effort into making the movie accurate
@@firingallcylinders2949the captain ignore the distress signals and lamps 🤦🏿 stop trying to defend the ship and captain . The American and British government already concluded more lives could've been saved if California didn't ignore the signals 🤦🏿
@@niggachu420you know nothing about ships. 🤦♂️ the boilers were off and would have needed to be started up and it would’ve taken hours to reach the titanic alone. Also 700 people could not have fit the Californian.
All of you are wrong. The Californian Marconi communicator signed off for the night and went to sleep after Philipps(in the Titanic) got annoyed and said “Shut up you bloody idiot!” Something like that, because philipps spent a long time fixing his communicator and he just got it fixed but he had an overload of messages
The Californian had stopped for the night because of the ice, I believe, and then there was an almost incredible succession of bad judgments by the crew of the Californian that saw her lamps and fireworks and decided they weren’t asking for help. This was in contrast to the Carpathia, whose crew were heroes and pulled out all the stops to assist despite their distance and the perils of the ice field they steamed into on their way to Titanic.
Just a little detail i wanted to point out; The _Californian_ was actually sighted off _Titanic’s_ port bow, which is why in _A Night to Remember_ 4th Officer Boxhall can be seen by the Morse Lamp on the port bridge wing.
They didn’t put MSG at the beginning of the weather report, so the titanic didn’t think it was emergent. Also the Cali was spamming the lines, making it hard for the telegraph man to send letters via telegraph which resulted in the titanic telegraph man becoming mad, causing him saying not so nice things to the cali and told the Cali to sign off, which they did.
@@masoncrowell4860 the titanic got about 4 radio calls that night about iceberg warmings ahead. The titanic should have slowed down from the warming, plus only one of two iceberg warmings were given to the bridge by the radio operator.
It actually wasn't - because that night there was three ships - the Titanic - The Samuel and The Californian - but the crew aboard titanic thought that it was the Californian nearby but it was actually the Samuel ... But the Samuel was a wooden boat which was poaching seals at the time which was elleagal - which meant they couldn't respond to the Titanic distress signals . The Californian crew members noticed the distress signals too but on very slightly . The captain of the Californian was woken up by a crew member and he asked what colours the rockets where and the crew member responded as white - that's when the captain just assumed they were having a party on deck . Later after the sinking the Californian went to go help survivors
Actually there are a some things Cameron changed to make the desaster more movie-able (despite the whole love story between Rose and Jack). For example the 9° list, Titanic developed during the sinking. He must have known that while studying the ship's history. You cannot blame him for that. It's a great movie despite minor historical inaccuracies.
The Californian was surrounded by icebergs and wireless communication was shut off by Titanic's wireless, so there was still NO way for it to hurry and save Titanic
that’s completely wrong the wireless operator on the Californian was actually sleeping for most the time and while they most likely couldn’t have saved anyone off titanic your reasoning are dead wrong also it was not surrounded by icebergs but rather in front of the ice field

Ok, I'm a huge nerd, feel free to use the Nerd emoji in the comments but I believe the Californian was to the North and I think only the port side morse lamp was being used
@@riccardo9698 titanic was drifting, the rudder was in the hard a port position. She would have drifted to place the Californian on her left. That’s also where we see the passengers testimony.
The barley visible light mentioned was not the Californian but the Norwegian trawler SAMSON. The Titanic and the Californian were 10 miles or more apart and could not have see each other as a matter of fact in both the British and American inquiries it was stated that from the Californian the distress rockets(fired from the Titanic had an altitude of 300 to 500 ft before it detonated) did not go much higher than the masthead light which indicates that there was another vessel between Titanic and the Californian, both vessels thought the light on the horizon (the SAMSON) were each other.
No, the officers on californian reported seeing a large ship firing rockets, and at around 2:20AM they couldnt see the ship anymore, that is around the same time as Titanics lights went out, also Samson was around iceland, not near newfoundsland
@rogerhuffmanjr.5832 well if they would’ve move to the titanic as it was sinking but stayed far enough away from the suction of the water then more people would’ve been saved but the movie follows the actual story
@@astrallis7873the Californian could only carry 200 people unlike the titanic 1500 either way both sunk but they the ss Californian sunk sometime later over the years
@@astrallis7873many people didn't die from drowning, but because of hypothermia. Even if Californien came in to help the survivors, most of people in the water still would've died because it was too cold
The boilers in the Californian were shut down and cold and would've taken hours to get going again. They were also surrounded by an ice field so they couldn't move if they wanted to. The Radio operator on the Californian also warned Titanic of the ice field but was basically told to hush by the Titanic's radio operator.
No there wasn't. It was claimed by the Californian that there was another ship between the two. Fact of the matter is that there wasn't. SS Californian broke maritime law by not rendering aid to the Titanic, as you often do when you make mistakes, you try to explain it or justify it. SS Californian thought everything was fine, and then realised in the morning that they fucked up.
It's sad because the Californian was seeing the Titanic's distress rockets, but it did not understand the distress due to the fireworks being launched every minute, instead of the usual 3 minutes, and all those people who said that the Carpathia was about 4 hours away, that is false. The Carpathia would've been 6 hours away, even at full speed.
I've heard that the californian could have helped, that's another story, but there was actually a whaling vessel, out there illegally and they were the ones that were the closes, the mast was described and it was very unique to that ship, I think it's name was Sampson
The SS Californian was way closer to the Titanic than the RMS Carpathia, the last survivor, Ava Hart said," It wasn't just a light in the horizon, it was a ship!"
To anyone who doesn't know, the Californian didn't help because the wireless operator had turned off his receiver as the Titanic's operator had told him to shut up.
He didnt shut it off because he was told to shut up. He turned it off because he had been working all day and was going to bed. He even sat up listening to the Titanic for a bit after he was told to shut up.
It wasn't the Californian. It was Mount Temple. One of the mistakes made after the ship hit the iceberg was that Captain Smith gave the wrong coordinates for the ship's location. Mount Temple was close to the actual spot where Titanic went down, and Californian was farther away.
Those aren't the morse lamp, there's a deleted scene that shows the morse lamp and it's large, round, has shutters and is moveable. The lights mentioned in this video are just fasing in and out as the power supply starts to slowly fail
I've watched This movie, so much that when it gets to the end, I cry like im their with them, but it just that I feel sympathy for them it's a sad ending. I've watched the other one's too but this one that James Cameron Directed was really great, jaw dropping, and a tear jerker! I remember the AMC Palace Theater brought it back in 3D, I couldn't sit through it so heartmoving and chilling.
Californian was not passing by. They simply watched titanic sink and its captain slept whole time. Officers wanted to check it out, but captain wouldnt allow it. If they had slowly sailed towards titanic, they would arrive before the ship sank and no one would have died.
The Californian was over 20 miles away. Mount Temple is a better candidate for the mystery ship - it was found in the right place by Carpathia at daybreak - the Californian was nowhere near the sinking site until 8a.m.
There was an incident of what it appears a large fishing boat (some sources say they are illegally hunting) passed by the Titanic and stopped while they were watching the Titanic sinking in its early stages, and then they left without help.
Wow I totally didn’t know that was In the film so cool to know he paid this much attention to all the details off that night they said he was kinda of a nightmare on the set but now I can see why he has a LOT to cover and get right for history ❤
It was appalling that The Californian did not realise. The crew did see Titanic's flares and lught but because White Star liners had their own signals at the time as well as the conventional ones, the crew on the Californian just presumed it was liners passing trivial messages to one another, so they did not get involved. How they lived with it I cannot imagine.
The Californian was the last ship to send an ice warning to the Titanic, stating that the ice field was so much of a risk that they had decided to stop for the night until the following morning, but one of the men in the marconi room sent an abrupt message back to the Californian telling them to shut up. The Californian shut all communication down for the night shortly afterwards. I will never understand how this tragedy happened. Being responsible for the safety of so many people, the Captain should have heeded the ice warnings. Not just him though. Misplaced binoculars, pressure on the captain to go faster, no emergency drill on the morning of the 14th April, insufficient lifeboats and officers not filling the lifeboats to capacity when launching them.....the list is endless. So many perished as a result of people's ignorance, arrogance and stupidity. It's so sad. And judging by what has recently happened with the Titan sub, lessons have not been learned. It's horrific!
The Marconi operator aboard Titanic who was operating that night had been frantically trying to play catch up on a backlog of passenger communications. The receivers had been turned all the way up because where he was trying to send and receive messages to was only barely within range. The Californian's operators were much closer and when he sent the message through, it blasted the Titanic operator's ears and made it so he couldn't pick up on the signal from Cape Race. He was frustrated by this point. He was tired, stressed out because he was so behind on all these passenger messages that had already been paid for, and Titanic had already been made aware of the ice warnings anyway, including Captain Smith. But the night was clear and calm, and under normal atmospheric conditions, they'd have been able to see any icebergs a mile away. They'd already changed course to move more south to avoid what they thought was the worst of the ice field. But because ice had traveled that far south, the warm waters melted a lot of the ice and cooled the water at the surface way down. This caused a sort of false horizon. Yes, the binoculars had been locked up by accident when Captain Smith had removed an officer prior to Titanic's departure from Southampton. But the lookouts wouldn't have been using them that night anyway. The binoculars limited the field of vision and distorted the view, so while it was procedure to have them on board, they wouldn't have been reached for. The lifeboat thing is actually a little more complicated. Titanic had the legally required amount of lifeboats on board. Granted, the laws were outdated and written before a time when the creation of a ship the size and scale of Titanic was even thought of, so they should have been updated. However, the lifeboats were never meant to sail the frigid North Atlantic by themselves. The purpose of the lifeboats was to act as a ferry between the ship sinking and another ship taking on the displaced passengers. These ship routes were well-traveled. There were always going to be ships nearby, so the thought was that there was almost certainly going to be somewhere close that passengers could unload, and then the lifeboats would be sent back to retrieve more. The problem was that it was all chaos as the ship was going down, and because everyone had stopped for the night, no one was close enough that the lifeboats could get to before the ship went down. She sunk in 2 hours. And it isn't as if people started loading them up immediately. Remember, the thought was that Titanic couldn't sink, and some passengers reported that when the ship made impact, they didn't even feel it. No one actually thought it was going to go down until Thomas Andrews, Titanic's designer, told Captain Smith that she would sink, and that wasn't done for something like 45 minutes afterwards. We could blame several different parties for the tragedy. Mistakes were definitely made. But no one intended this to happen, and I think at the end of the day, we need to remember that it was an accident.
That make me even more upset! Knowing more souls could’ve been saved…knowing the Californian was there let’s me know this was indeed a hit and intentional
@@DurosKlav they could’ve saved more people that were waiting and froze to death in the water. I’m Not saying the Californian could’ve saved everyone but 1500 people didn’t have to die. Doing SOMETHING could’ve meant everything for some of those people. Only ONE life boat went back …ONE! Californian could’ve made a difference. But doing absolutely nothing is despicable and inhumane
@@love_reka_8877 Attempting to save those already in the water would have just led to their own lifeboats being overwhelmed and most likely killing their own crew. Its the same reason only one lifeboat went back, and they only went back after 95% of the people were already dead. They did nothing because they were unaware of anything actually happening. I see nothing that they could have done which would have made any difference on how many lived and how many died. The ship sunk a hour and 40ish minutes or so after the first distress rocket had fired. Even if the crew instantly started to go wake up the radio operator and the captain at moment they saw the first rocket it still probably would have been another 5-10 minutes before they would have fully understood what was going on. Then probably another 10 minutes before they were able to get underway towards the Titanic. Then they would have had to safely navigate through an ice field at night to get there. In the end it took them about 2 hours to reach the area of the sinking in the morning. This is from the wikipedia page on the ship: " In 1992, the UK Government's Marine Accident Investigation Branch re-examined the case and while condemning the inaction of the Californian and Captain Lord, also concluded that due to the limited time available, "the effect of Californian taking proper action would have been no more than to place on her the task actually carried out by RMS Carpathia, that is the rescue of those who escaped ... [no] reasonably probable action by Captain Lord could have led to a different outcome of the tragedy"

Good to help 😊
The earth is curved. In order for people on the the Titanic to see the Californian in it's entirely it had to be within 6 miles. Any further than that you would just see the funnel and masts. It would of made it within an hour "(it was a slow ship) if they woke the operator with the first rocket.
The reason why the calafionion did not come Is because the Titanic was sending the signals wrong they where launching distress rockets every 3 mins in stead of every 5 mins plus the calafionion's Morse code operator had gone to bed but he saw the Titanic's distress rockets and told the captain but he said they where just having a party because of the incorrectly launched disstres signal and told the morce code operator to leave his room now and said try to massage them again or just go to bed but by the time the calafionion's Morse code operator got back to his room the Titanic Morse code operator had left thinking the calafionion was on the where see ing the distress rockets (sorry if it took long to read)

As it were, the wireless operators (who didn't know where Californian was, just "close") didn't feel the need to report it to the Captain.

The titanic movie has so much detail 😲😲😲
But didn't get the split right which I'm still pissed still
nah cause actually the split was wrong the rockets wasnt the right color it would’ve been much darker and william Murdoch did not shoot nobody and he never would’ve shot anyone and the list goes on :)

The most beautiful ship ever made. Newer ships from today don't come even close to the design of the Titanic. You don't even can call them ships nowadays but floating apartmentbuildings
It’s sad that everyone blamed the Californian captain but the Californian was not even close to ready that day and would be dangerous to be near the sinking titanic
no thats not right thats not how it went down
The least he could do was wake up the wireless operator tho
I think the reason why people blamed The Californian was that it was the closest ship in the area. Carpathia was four hours away. The Californian operator also went to bed that night so he didn’t hear any signals from the Titanic.
@@Whitneypyant that was why they changed the maritime laws to require the wireless (and later radio) operators to keep the set active 24/7. It was a massive missed opportunity to save lives
Guys the Californian tried to warn the titanic that there was a ice berg coming but the titanic demanded them to be quiet so they thought that they knew so they turned off the signal
Don't know how the Californian could be "passing by" the Titanic, when by 10:21pm that night, her Captain, Stanley Lord, ordered his ship stop for the night due to heavy pack ice in their path. Captain Lord wasn't made aware of what was going on with the Titanic until the morning, when Californian's wireless picked up chatter from other ships about the Titanic having sunk in the wee hours of the morning.
Captain Lord was woken up twice about the rockets from the Titanic, he said they were just company flares and didn't order the ship to investigate. He should have at least had the wireless operator woken up.
I find that hard to believe. ..ANY shop within a certain mileage would have received the distressed codes that would have included the Californian
@@aliciacoble7854 Yay but the operator what's asleep on the California
Befor the Titanic most ships only had one maybe two operators
It was only change after the Titanic, to have enough of these operators to have it operate for 24 hours
It wasnt passing by it was stopped in the water
@@aliciacoble7854at the time, most ocean liners actually didn't have ship-employed wireless operators. White Star Line contracted with a company called Marconi to operate the wireless communications. But these Marconi employees weren't hired to send and receive messages that impacted ship operations. They were hired to send passenger communications back and forth, and charged the passengers themselves for these. Like an early form of text message. That being said, most operators did try to send other ships in the area notices of ice, and would take messages to the captain of the vessels if the Marconi operators thought it was important enough.
Titanic had 2 Marconi operators on board. They'd been notified of icebergs several times and the captain knew. However, the sea was calm and the conditions extremely clear. Titanic had actually altered their course to veer more south to try to avoid the worst of the ice fields, but it unfortunately put them right in the path of a huge berg. That berg had even gotten way smaller as it had moved so far south that the warmer waters had melted a lot of it away. Unfortunately, it was still large enough to cause enough damage.
Attitude at the time was that Titanic wasn't likely to sink anyway and had Titanic hit head on, she wouldn't have sunk. She'd have taken water and people still would have died, but the compartment walls would have done their jobs and held. First Officer Murdock was right in trying to turn though. No trained officer would have allowed the ship to hit head on if he could help it. By the time the lookouts had seen the thing, it was right on top of them because the conditions that night didn't show any water crashing against the iceberg, and the ice field had made the air right over the surface so cold that it caused a sort of optical illusion that hid it from view. The movie shows it clearly, but in reality, all the lookouts would have seen was a patch of black where the stars didn't shine.
So, you have wireless operators who weren't hired or necessarily trained to handle vital ship communications and who were frantically trying to play catch up with backlogged passenger messages, a seasoned captain who had never had an incident like this in his entire career but who was trying to prove himself and his ship before his retirement, a freak rogue iceberg that was way further south than anyone thought it would be, odd weather conditions that essentially hid the iceberg until it was too late, a general attitude that Titanic couldn't sink anyway, and if it did and they needed to abandon ship, they the legal amount of lifeboats required for the time, which would have been used to ferry passengers back and forth from the sinking ship to another nearby one, as those shipping routes were used constantly. Statistically speaking, Titanic actually sinking and that many people dying due to these very specific circumstances was a mathematical impossibility.
James Cameron was truly so detail-oriented! A true perfectionist director!
He spent a VERY big part of this time on this ship.
Even after the film, he continued with theories and research about it.
He put a lot of effort into making the movie accurate
It’s true, but he didn’t get everything right, and we shouldn’t forget that.
The Californian wasnt passing titanic she had stopped for the night due to being surrounded by a icefield

@@niggachu420you know nothing about ships. 🤦♂️ the boilers were off and would have needed to be started up and it would’ve taken hours to reach the titanic alone. Also 700 people could not have fit the Californian.
All of you are wrong. The Californian Marconi communicator signed off for the night and went to sleep after Philipps(in the Titanic) got annoyed and said “Shut up you bloody idiot!” Something like that, because philipps spent a long time fixing his communicator and he just got it fixed but he had an overload of messages
They had every detail amazing movie
The Californian had stopped for the night because of the ice, I believe, and then there was an almost incredible succession of bad judgments by the crew of the Californian that saw her lamps and fireworks and decided they weren’t asking for help.
This was in contrast to the Carpathia, whose crew were heroes and pulled out all the stops to assist despite their distance and the perils of the ice field they steamed into on their way to Titanic.
Just a little detail i wanted to point out;
The _Californian_ was actually sighted off _Titanic’s_ port bow, which is why in _A Night to Remember_ 4th Officer Boxhall can be seen by the Morse Lamp on the port bridge wing.
Huh? The Californian was stopped in an ice berg field, their radio operator told the Titanic about it before he signed off for the night.
They didn’t put MSG at the beginning of the weather report, so the titanic didn’t think it was emergent. Also the Cali was spamming the lines, making it hard for the telegraph man to send letters via telegraph which resulted in the titanic telegraph man becoming mad, causing him saying not so nice things to the cali and told the Cali to sign off, which they did.
@@masoncrowell4860 the titanic got about 4 radio calls that night about iceberg warmings ahead. The titanic should have slowed down from the warming, plus only one of two iceberg warmings were given to the bridge by the radio operator.
Titanic’s operators told the crew of the Californian to shut up, so they did.
No. Tiyanic's operator told Californian's to clear the frequency. At least that is what the testimony of Cyril Evans reported.
It actually wasn't - because that night there was three ships - the Titanic - The Samuel and The Californian - but the crew aboard titanic thought that it was the Californian nearby but it was actually the Samuel ... But the Samuel was a wooden boat which was poaching seals at the time which was elleagal - which meant they couldn't respond to the Titanic distress signals . The Californian crew members noticed the distress signals too but on very slightly . The captain of the Californian was woken up by a crew member and he asked what colours the rockets where and the crew member responded as white - that's when the captain just assumed they were having a party on deck . Later after the sinking the Californian went to go help survivors
your joking right
That is a conspiracy theory. Sampson likely was in Icelandic waters at the time.
No I'm not joking and it's not a conspiracy. It's true , because my great great grandfather was on the Titanic at the time it sank and died
@@Sqxirrel Kid, even then how would he know if some whaling ship was in the area, not to mention the fact that Samson was in Icelandic waters.

Actually in the movie there was a whole scene with the California in it. Good scene it’s here on you tube

Actually there are a some things Cameron changed to make the desaster more movie-able (despite the whole love story between Rose and Jack). For example the 9° list, Titanic developed during the sinking. He must have known that while studying the ship's history. You cannot blame him for that. It's a great movie despite minor historical inaccuracies.

the California was not moving
it was stationary
and most everybody was asleep....
The barley visible light mentioned was not the Californian but the Norwegian trawler SAMSON. The Titanic and the Californian were 10 miles or more apart and could not have see each other as a matter of fact in both the British and American inquiries it was stated that from the Californian the distress rockets(fired from the Titanic had an altitude of 300 to 500 ft before it detonated) did not go much higher than the masthead light which indicates that there was another vessel between Titanic and the Californian, both vessels thought the light on the horizon (the SAMSON) were each other.
your joking to right
@@ilovegeorgeharrison1964 I do not joke....ever.
No, the officers on californian reported seeing a large ship firing rockets, and at around 2:20AM they couldnt see the ship anymore, that is around the same time as Titanics lights went out, also Samson was around iceland, not near newfoundsland

The boilers in the Californian were shut down and cold and would've taken hours to get going again. They were also surrounded by an ice field so they couldn't move if they wanted to. The Radio operator on the Californian also warned Titanic of the ice field but was basically told to hush by the Titanic's radio operator.
The Californian was actually a little farther. There was another ship that was actually passing by that wasn’t the Californian that was closer!
No there wasn't. It was claimed by the Californian that there was another ship between the two. Fact of the matter is that there wasn't. SS Californian broke maritime law by not rendering aid to the Titanic, as you often do when you make mistakes, you try to explain it or justify it. SS Californian thought everything was fine, and then realised in the morning that they fucked up.

@@sebastiantiainen2749I can’t imagine Captain Lord’s face where he arrives at the wrecksite with the Carpathia leaving in the horizon to America

JP Morgan and homies were on the Californian....celebrating the creation of their new federal reserve
Really?
No, that is a lie im familiar with.
It's sad because the Californian was seeing the Titanic's distress rockets, but it did not understand the distress due to the fireworks being launched every minute, instead of the usual 3 minutes, and all those people who said that the Carpathia was about 4 hours away, that is false. The Carpathia would've been 6 hours away, even at full speed.
it makes sense how apparently the californian doesnt notice a thousand rooms fully decked with lights but notices 1 small signal light
yes the california had let titanic down😔😔😔
May the titanic Rest In Peace or pieces 😢
I've heard that the californian could have helped, that's another story, but there was actually a whaling vessel, out there illegally and they were the ones that were the closes, the mast was described and it was very unique to that ship, I think it's name was Sampson
Ssmspon was docked im Iceland that time. There are records regarding that. It was nowhere near.
The SS Californian was way closer to the Titanic than the RMS Carpathia, the last survivor, Ava Hart said," It wasn't just a light in the horizon, it was a ship!"

“This is a reference to The Titanic”
:0
To anyone who doesn't know, the Californian didn't help because the wireless operator had turned off his receiver as the Titanic's operator had told him to shut up.
He didnt shut it off because he was told to shut up. He turned it off because he had been working all day and was going to bed. He even sat up listening to the Titanic for a bit after he was told to shut up.
It wasn't the Californian. It was Mount Temple. One of the mistakes made after the ship hit the iceberg was that Captain Smith gave the wrong coordinates for the ship's location. Mount Temple was close to the actual spot where Titanic went down, and Californian was farther away.
Yes. James Cameron confirmed it was the S.S californian
Those aren't the morse lamp, there's a deleted scene that shows the morse lamp and it's large, round, has shutters and is moveable.
The lights mentioned in this video are just fasing in and out as the power supply starts to slowly fail
I've watched This movie, so much that when it gets to the end, I cry like im their with them, but it just that I feel sympathy for them it's a sad ending. I've watched the other one's too but this one that James Cameron Directed was really great, jaw dropping, and a tear jerker! I remember the AMC Palace Theater brought it back in 3D, I couldn't sit through it so heartmoving and chilling.
Californian was not passing by. They simply watched titanic sink and its captain slept whole time. Officers wanted to check it out, but captain wouldnt allow it. If they had slowly sailed towards titanic, they would arrive before the ship sank and no one would have died.
They don't know Titanic sank
The Californian was over 20 miles away. Mount Temple is a better candidate for the mystery ship - it was found in the right place by Carpathia at daybreak - the Californian was nowhere near the sinking site until 8a.m.
There was an incident of what it appears a large fishing boat (some sources say they are illegally hunting) passed by the Titanic and stopped while they were watching the Titanic sinking in its early stages, and then they left without help.
So many more could have been saved 💔
Wow I totally didn’t know that was In the film so cool to know he paid this much attention to all the details off that night they said he was kinda of a nightmare on the set but now I can see why he has a LOT to cover and get right for history ❤
Imagine the lives saved if they had cared to save the people on that faithful night
This fact you just mentioning; makes it even heartbreaking 💔
Bro was trying to get the waiters attention
this is amazing and scary and harrowing at the same time
It was appalling that The Californian did not realise. The crew did see Titanic's flares and lught but because White Star liners had their own signals at the time as well as the conventional ones, the crew on the Californian just presumed it was liners passing trivial messages to one another, so they did not get involved.
How they lived with it I cannot imagine.
“This is a reference to the Titanic”
I’m glad you noticed this.
The Californian was the last ship to send an ice warning to the Titanic, stating that the ice field was so much of a risk that they had decided to stop for the night until the following morning, but one of the men in the marconi room sent an abrupt message back to the Californian telling them to shut up. The Californian shut all communication down for the night shortly afterwards. I will never understand how this tragedy happened. Being responsible for the safety of so many people, the Captain should have heeded the ice warnings. Not just him though. Misplaced binoculars, pressure on the captain to go faster, no emergency drill on the morning of the 14th April, insufficient lifeboats and officers not filling the lifeboats to capacity when launching them.....the list is endless. So many perished as a result of people's ignorance, arrogance and stupidity. It's so sad. And judging by what has recently happened with the Titan sub, lessons have not been learned. It's horrific!
Calm down over there
The Marconi operator aboard Titanic who was operating that night had been frantically trying to play catch up on a backlog of passenger communications. The receivers had been turned all the way up because where he was trying to send and receive messages to was only barely within range. The Californian's operators were much closer and when he sent the message through, it blasted the Titanic operator's ears and made it so he couldn't pick up on the signal from Cape Race. He was frustrated by this point. He was tired, stressed out because he was so behind on all these passenger messages that had already been paid for, and Titanic had already been made aware of the ice warnings anyway, including Captain Smith. But the night was clear and calm, and under normal atmospheric conditions, they'd have been able to see any icebergs a mile away. They'd already changed course to move more south to avoid what they thought was the worst of the ice field. But because ice had traveled that far south, the warm waters melted a lot of the ice and cooled the water at the surface way down. This caused a sort of false horizon. Yes, the binoculars had been locked up by accident when Captain Smith had removed an officer prior to Titanic's departure from Southampton. But the lookouts wouldn't have been using them that night anyway. The binoculars limited the field of vision and distorted the view, so while it was procedure to have them on board, they wouldn't have been reached for.
The lifeboat thing is actually a little more complicated. Titanic had the legally required amount of lifeboats on board. Granted, the laws were outdated and written before a time when the creation of a ship the size and scale of Titanic was even thought of, so they should have been updated. However, the lifeboats were never meant to sail the frigid North Atlantic by themselves. The purpose of the lifeboats was to act as a ferry between the ship sinking and another ship taking on the displaced passengers. These ship routes were well-traveled. There were always going to be ships nearby, so the thought was that there was almost certainly going to be somewhere close that passengers could unload, and then the lifeboats would be sent back to retrieve more. The problem was that it was all chaos as the ship was going down, and because everyone had stopped for the night, no one was close enough that the lifeboats could get to before the ship went down. She sunk in 2 hours. And it isn't as if people started loading them up immediately. Remember, the thought was that Titanic couldn't sink, and some passengers reported that when the ship made impact, they didn't even feel it. No one actually thought it was going to go down until Thomas Andrews, Titanic's designer, told Captain Smith that she would sink, and that wasn't done for something like 45 minutes afterwards.
We could blame several different parties for the tragedy. Mistakes were definitely made. But no one intended this to happen, and I think at the end of the day, we need to remember that it was an accident.
This movie put every single detail into titanic 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
That make me even more upset! Knowing more souls could’ve been saved…knowing the Californian was there let’s me know this was indeed a hit and intentional
It wouldnt have made any difference, and they werent as close as people have assumed.
@@DurosKlav they could’ve saved more people that were waiting and froze to death in the water. I’m Not saying the Californian could’ve saved everyone but 1500 people didn’t have to die. Doing SOMETHING could’ve meant everything for some of those people. Only ONE life boat went back …ONE!
Californian could’ve made a difference. But doing absolutely nothing is despicable and inhumane
@@love_reka_8877 Attempting to save those already in the water would have just led to their own lifeboats being overwhelmed and most likely killing their own crew. Its the same reason only one lifeboat went back, and they only went back after 95% of the people were already dead.
They did nothing because they were unaware of anything actually happening.
I see nothing that they could have done which would have made any difference on how many lived and how many died. The ship sunk a hour and 40ish minutes or so after the first distress rocket had fired. Even if the crew instantly started to go wake up the radio operator and the captain at moment they saw the first rocket it still probably would have been another 5-10 minutes before they would have fully understood what was going on. Then probably another 10 minutes before they were able to get underway towards the Titanic. Then they would have had to safely navigate through an ice field at night to get there. In the end it took them about 2 hours to reach the area of the sinking in the morning.
This is from the wikipedia page on the ship:
" In 1992, the UK Government's Marine Accident Investigation Branch re-examined the case and while condemning the inaction of the Californian and Captain Lord, also concluded that due to the limited time available, "the effect of Californian taking proper action would have been no more than to place on her the task actually carried out by RMS Carpathia, that is the rescue of those who escaped ... [no] reasonably probable action by Captain Lord could have led to a different outcome of the tragedy"

Californian warned Titanic about icebergs but wireless operators and captain ignored this
Wait so in a titanic movie they put lamps a light out there or was that real footage somehow turned into color
The reason why they use morse lamps is because californians wireless operator was asleep so the captain tries to communicate with morse lamps
Bro, the Californian must've been devastated to see the Titanic go. But wait, wasn't it pitch black according to survivors?
That’s actually A good detail
And the flares were meant to be red, but they didnt have the red ones, so they had to use what they had
The California was 19 miles away the most close to titanic but they where all sleeping on it so the carpathia was second closest and saved the passengers
The attention to detail
Did you know??
100.000% of moviegoers missed the Titanic scene where the woman in the white dress crosses her legs sitting in the chair inside the iron and brick compartment of the Titanic's criminal reception and interrogation room
it was still pretty inaccurate cause actually the split was wrong the rockets wasnt the right color it would’ve been much darker and william Murdoch did not shoot nobody and he never would’ve shot anyone and the list goes on
By the part where the other kid said the people on the other ship would be there in 4 hours so I must have been them because it would be probably very very very far away from them so I think that's them so yeah I think so so if this helped and if u don't believe me it's fine so have a great day!!!!
Good to help 😊
The angle is wrong. The Californian, if it was the Californian, would have been fine of the starboard bow.
The earth is curved. In order for people on the the Titanic to see the Californian in it's entirely it had to be within 6 miles. Any further than that you would just see the funnel and masts. It would of made it within an hour "(it was a slow ship) if they woke the operator with the first rocket.
Omg so the titanic is so close in californian😱😱
The reason why the calafionion did not come Is because the Titanic was sending the signals wrong they where launching distress rockets every 3 mins in stead of every 5 mins plus the calafionion's Morse code operator had gone to bed but he saw the Titanic's distress rockets and told the captain but he said they where just having a party because of the incorrectly launched disstres signal and told the morce code operator to leave his room now and said try to massage them again or just go to bed but by the time the calafionion's Morse code operator got back to his room the Titanic Morse code operator had left thinking the calafionion was on the where see ing the distress rockets (sorry if it took long to read)
fun fact: The Californian actually was on the Titanic's wreck in search of more survivor
This was also shown in the 1950’s titanic movie
i thought that was some sort of light source interfereing with the film but they didnt notice
