- In this video we discuss what might of happened to the Titanic if it had the same amount of damage from the iceberg, however they were on the back of the ship instead of the front.

After well over a decade studying the story of the Titanic as a hobby I never once considered to factor in the weight of the engines offsetting some weight of the flooding slowing down the sinking. Mind blown 🤯
Thank you again for your videos.
I just thought the same thing.
Not how buoyancy works. The engines were dead weight. Along with the whole stern above the waterline. The stern and all it's contents and mass were not buoyant... They we're only pushing the bow into the water.
Only the hull below the waterline creates buoyancy. Remember that.
Only the part of the ship below the surface was creating positive buoyancy... The bow section was holding up the stern... Not the reverse. The stern was dead weight. Displacing no water, giving no buoyancy. It was not full of helium and creating magic lift.
He has a misunderstanding of buoyancy and physics.
The idea that the engines were the center of mass is not correct. The ship was designed to float on an even keel. All the coal, the boilers, the ballast, the engines, etc. were all along the keel... Balancing the ship. The engines were not "the heaviest point of the ship"... They were only the heaviest of they were removed... That's not how this works. The ship was very balanced, with the mass distributed evenly along its keel..
He takes his intuition.and based his ideas on those intuitions. Bad science.
But wouldn't the weight of the water in her bow have fgar outweighed the weight of her engines? And can you imagine the panic with no lights? Few if any people would have survived.
@@harrietharlow9929 of course all that water weighed more.. But the water in the Hull is the same density as the water outside the hull... Water doesn't sink in water... Water inside a boat doesn't pull the ship down.. Only the weight of the ship itself is heavier than the water.
It's a lack of buoyancy that causes the sinking. The air leaves the ship.. Replaced by neutrally buoyant water.. Then the steel sinks...
People need to stop thinking of the water as added weight.. That's not how buoyancy works.. The incoming water reduces the buoyancy, by pushing out the air..
@@ryans9029 sounds like WITCHCRAFT to me!!!! Get a torch!!!!
Watching this ship kinda made me realize that as tragic it was, Titanic's sequence of sinking was a best case scenario. Flooding progressed very slowly at the early stages, the hull puncture was not overly massive, power stayed on until the last moment, none of the boilers exploded too dramatically, it was able to call for help. Only major problem was the crew were not properly trained to deal with such emergency and there weren't enough life boats.
even if it had enough boats crew didnt have enough time to launch them all
Wrong. The crew was definitely trained and they wouldn’t even have had enough time to launch extra boats. Collapsibles A and B literally floated off the boat deck as it’s submerged. The only problem that night was, was that the ship was mortally wounded (and maybe the uncooperative passengers), but really nothing else.
Video Idea: MS Estonia, one of the more recent maritime disasters that I feel not as many western hemisphere audiences know much about.
There is a great documentary on TH-cam called Zero Hour Estonia. Watch it, it's great
Oof, that one was sad.
There was a new documentary made about Estonia, it's really detailed and more up to date than zero hour. It's on Discovery+.
I really hope he does that one soon.
In a similar vein, the Sewol Ferry catastrophe
Video idea: The Unknown Child (Sidney Leslie Goodwin) - the toddler who was unidentified until 2007
Good idea! i second this!
I third this
i fourth this !
I 5th this!
I sixth!
Wonderful work here 🤗.
It made me realize it could have been a lot worse without:
- the crew who kept the power until the last moments
- the wireless operators
- the engine room workforce who emptied the steam to avoid boilers exploding
- the crew who kept order on deck
Imagine the dedication to their work even in the face of definite death. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Video idea: what if the Californian heard Titanic's distress calls
This!!!!
@@nepheshaish8160 Given they were completely stopped and the first distress call was 45 mins after impact...they probably arrive in time at the earliest to watch the stern rise and get everything prepared at 2:20 AM. This might save 100-200 lives extra...but still well under half.
More realistically, if forced to take a similar route they actually did to dodge the bergs...they probably just replace the Carpathia and save the 709...maybe they split the difference. No changes...except Lord gets better press and dies a less depressed and harassed man.
@@Warriorcats64 I think your assessment would be pretty darn close to what I would predict. I mean a steam powered ship doesn't just get up and go when asked to. From idle to full steam, at best I would assume 30-60 minutes depending. So Californian hears the call and the wireless operator wakes captain Lord. Lord sends the order to wake the stokers and get the ship up to full steam, this is where 30-60 minutes takes for them to get under way. Meanwhile, under stand they are surrounded with pack ice, soooooo at best he can move 1-2 knots to crawl out of the pack ice (remember this is a liner not an ice breaker). Then once free in the moonless night, he will spend about an hour going the 13 miles from them to Titanic. So time relapse here: 45 minutes has passed since the ship struck ice (12:30am) message received and 45 minutes to get enough power (1:15am) before they move. Then I would assume due to frantic messages, maybe at best 30-45 minutes to move to Titanic from their position. This leaves Californian arriving between 2:00 and 230am. This is the absolute WORST moment to arrive.
At that point they couldn't simply lower a bridge to the stern for it would be suicide, but rather they would watch from a distance and wait. The crew would NOT lower lifeboats because it would be suicide for those in the boats. They would have to wait until the ship is gone and then pull up nearby and fully stop the engines and lower the ropes over the side. It would be utter pandemonium getting people out of the water before they die, and not ONE of those folks in the water would be of sound mind. They would be in the dangerous state of "fight or flight." These are people willing to KILL someone to grab a rope, these are people willing to drown someone to grab a rope, and these are people willing to harm others in order to get out of the water first. To say the least, they would and could help pull more people out of the water after the "swarm" calmed down. This means more people could come out of hypothermia due to being placed in a warmer environment. Or they would have more life boats to simply pull the dead out of the water. Carpathia could simply take on passengers, whereas Californian could take on the dead.
@@markjensen7091 This does seem reasonable. A best case scenario would likely be the Californian arriving right around the time of the final plunge or in the aftermath shortly afterwards. In the British and American government inquiries after the sinking they took into account that the Californian took almost 2 1/2 hours after first spotting the Carpathia and Mount Temple to navigate the ice field to reach where Carpathia was and decided that in all probability had the Californian heard the distress call it would have arrived just shortly before Carpathia did as acrazyutuber13 mentioned. The Californian was exonerated legally but crucified in public opinion.
@@Warriorcats64 Californian only had a top speed of 13 knots. If she pushed like carpathia, since she was only some 10 miles away, Might have been arriving at 1:44-2:05
Its always a pleasure to see your videos. Best greetings from a 41 year old Titanic fan (since 1992) from Germany.
Possible video idea: The sinking of the Daniel J Morell on the Great Lakes, it only had a single sole survivor out of its crew. A very interesting story to cover!
Why don’t you have a seat for me
Don't have you have predators to catch, hansen?
Guy was nice enough to offer you pizza and you declined.
so it says here in the text...I want to blank you in the blank while blanking your blank...did you remember saying this to a 13 year old ?
I agree. The Daniel J. Morell is an insane story.
Video idea, the Carpathia, always wanted to know how the rescue took place, how people boarded the ship, how were the conditions onboard for survivors. Another idea, how common was it for ocean liners to sink after hitting icebergs, was it a thing or was titanic really an isolated case. I know many ships like titanic sank but due to being involved in the war, not iceberg related incidents. Great channel!
I'd like to know how often it happened too
Good idea!
From what I've found, there's been a lot of incidents of ships (of all types) hitting icebergs. Not all of them sank though. There's been a few that sank but did have any fatalities. It looks like after the ice patrol was formed there has been less incidents but it still happens sometimes. In fact, in 2007 a cruise ship called the MS Explorer hit an iceberg and sank with no fatalities. It would be an interesting topic though because I would love to know the statistics of iceberg incidents before and after the formation of the ice patrol.
@Titán IIRC around 5:30 AM.
@Titán IIRC when the Carpathia arrived at the site of the Titanic's sinking it was already dawn.
Video idea: what if Titanic sank like Thomas Andrews thought, capsizing and sinking in one to one and a half hours
Or better yet, what would happen if they left the watertight doors open instead of closing them? More chaotic scenario.
@@CH-gr7tn titanic ewoud sink faster and the power would have gone out faster too
I think they did a scale model test years ago with the watertight doors open. The ship capsized after I think an hour or hour and a half had passed.
@@benjohnson8175 yes they did that in a special, Titanic: Secrets Revealed.
Probably the Titanic would sink like her younger sister the Britannic, but much slower because when the Britannic was sinking, the ship was still moving, and that make her sink faster.
If it wasn't for the men who sacrifice their lives Titanic would not have hydro at all thank you to the men who kept the Titanic having power Jonathan Shepherd, Joseph Bell and crew! Not all heros wear capes 😔
Xd
Good stuff Sam. It's really refreshing to see "what if" and "speculation" videos that aren't full to the brim with bombastic claims and drama to entertain the grim outcomes with macabre graphics or punctuated word delivery. I remember my eyes rolling over the whole V-Break controversy and seeing how divisive it was making the Titanic community on youtube
Even with a video discussing possible alternate scenario and a made-up timeline, you still manage to keep the video smart, interesting, tastefull and contemplatively refreshing without putting it into a tinfoil tailspin. You choose to highlight that what you're saying is in fact speculating and it comes off as very honest. That bit about the engine/water physics tug-o-war was fascinating and I've never considered or heard / read that anywhere before. That right there is a talent within itself, and a lost art among hosts and their personality. One we need more of. Keep it up! 🚢⚓
Thanks man! I try to approach this as scientific as possible. The story of the Titanic is interesting enough without throwing in a bunch of lies to get views. (Coal Fire) (Bright Side) etc
Yeah bright side sayed titanic didn't hit a ice berg
@@mariasmall536 yea lol
Video idea: if you could warn anyone involved I.e. (Andrews,Captain Smith) who would you warn and when?
@@HistoricTravelswhat you taliking about brightside is totally the truth you are the lie 👍 (I’m joking
Video Ideas
1. Britannic
2. Stern Implosion Causes
3. Debunk switch theory (they would have to rebuild A and B deck and move all furniture in 44 days)
4. The story of the Andrea Doria
5. Why the bulkheads where open at the top
6. Talk about some of the officers heroic acts (Ex. Lightoller)
7.The photo of the (allegedaly) iceberg that sunk Titanic
8.What if the 2 foot gash in boiler rm 5 wasn't made
9. Why even though designed for 32-46 (idk which to believe but I have heard both) she only carried 20 lifeboats
10. Sultana sinking
11. What if the engines were not shut off during the sinking
12. Father Thomas Byles who prayed with passengers on the sinking Titanic
13. Jack Phillips and Harold Bride's time spent trying to get help during the sinking
I love your videos they are really interesting and fun to watch :)
@@eltiofresca4998Watertight bulkheads are vertically designed watertight divisions/walls within the ship's structure to avoid ingress of water in the compartment if the adjacent compartment is flooded due to damage in ship's hul
@@eltiofresca4998 What about the 7th one?
1. Smart but he is planning it
2. He has done it
3. Smart but there is a lot of videos on it
4. Cool
5. Again pretty good idea
6. That would be awesome to talk more about some officers
7. That could be cool
8. Awesome idea
9. Maybe...
I would like it if he made more videos on other ships and not just the Titanic.
@@eltiofresca4998 What do you think about the bulkhead video?
The three dislikes are the Titanic, Britannic, and Olympic.
and the extra two are Lusitania and Cunards owner lmao
Nah the Titan.
The other 3 are carpthia lusitania Mauritania
And so as aquitania
they added Mauretania, Lusitania, and Aquatania.
Bright Side Approves!
Fun fact: this is what happened to the Costa Concordia. It struck a rock at the back of the ship, the engine room and generators flooding in under a minute.
All propulsion and lighting failed, leaving the ship adrift and unable to spot from the air for quite a while.
2:18 Correction: Compartment "4" was the compartment with the electric dynamos
As a Titanic historian myself, and after twenty-five years of researching the tragedy this is quite intriguing. There are many " what-ifs" in history and Titanic is a prime example. I will only name just a couple of "what-ifs," here. What if the lookouts had been able to spot the iceberg sooner? They only had 37 seconds to steer around it so what if they had more time? What if the ship had just hit the iceberg head on instead of trying to go around it? To me that's a simple answer though, she would have stayed afloat and would have been able to limp into New York. These videos are certainly helpful in my current research for grad school. Thank you.
Although most large ships sink bow first, this is an interesting theory.
It’s great seeing you uploaded man! Keep it up!
Great video as always ‼️
I've said it before that I like your videos, because a lot of them are things I've always been curious about or wondered what if on how certain things happened a lot of your videos explain it.
18.4k subscribers congratulations man you deserve it you're no doubt going to hit 20,000 subscribers in no time.
It's been great to see your channel grow pretty fast..
💯🔥
Hello, Historic Travels. I have really been enjoying your Titanic content over the last month or so. I would be very interested to hear you cover other historical ships such as the Bismarck and the Costa Concordia, too. Keep up the good work.
Really enjoy your postulations on the sinking and the "what if" scenarios you present. Well thought out and told without sounding pretentious. I'm over 40 and grew up with a heavy fascination about the ship and enjoy all the history surrounding it.
Video idea: what if the coal fires in the titanic were never put out. another idea is: what if it hit the iceberg in the mid area of the ship and another one is What is the titanic had the safety features that Britannic had
i like this idea
could explain the sinking
I think he already did a video on it
@@williamgauthier2153 no from the beginning of the voyage
@Casey Gabriel no from the beginning of the voyage
Video idea: MV Doña Paz in the Pgilippines. Also known as "Asia's Titanic" in Dec 20th 1987
Only had a passenger capacity of 1,500 but 4,500 were fit in. Crashed with an oil tanker and burned the ship and the ocean around it due to the oil. Everyone either burnt inside or burnt in the water. Only 25 people survived.
Don't forget that the fact that the Tablas Strait is shark infested too! As if things couldn't get any worse
Another great video. I never thought about the engines being so heavy that it broke in half because of the "tug-of-war". Very interesting. Thanks for sharing your views.
This was way more interesting than I’d expected from the title. You really explain and analyse things in a really fascinating and knowledgeable way. Keep them coming! 👏
Super interesting video. I have always known more about Titanic than the average person and most of the videos on youtube with titles such as "10 things you did'n know about titanic" contain only stuff I've known for years OR contain mistakes/faksehoods. Its verry refreshing to have discovered your channel that comes up with reliable new stuff that makes me finally learn more about titanic or let me see things in a different perspective. Big fan of your work man. Keep up the good work !
Great video of this "what if" scenario. And to be honest, what happened was the best case scenario of a sinking situation. Imagine if her capsized, of started to flood on the back or center of the ship the casualties would be way worse
I love the way he says "Everybody"
Loving the content. Just started getting into the Titanic and you're channel is so useful for finding quick little pieces of information. Keep it up I really enjoy the style.
One of your best videos. And your previous videos have given me a foundation of knowledge to get it. Well done.
I can’t stop watching your videos man lol, great job as always looking forward to the Edmund Fitzgerald video!
Video idea: what would’ve you done if you were on the titanic when she was sinking?
Great question, I'm gonna copy and paste so hopefully he sees it!
Knowing what I know now? I would go find a family of non English speaking immigrants with lots of women and children. I would usher them up the lifeboat loading area (Murdoch’s side, as I am a man), pretend to be with them or working for them, and try to escape that way. Even if it didn’t work out for me, at least maybe I could save a family that didn’t know what to do.
He has actually answered this question a few times during his lives; he said he'd look for a sturdy and buoyant enough wood panel or similar and put together a makeshift raft
Hopefully i was a caepenter and i had my tools.. (I would make a kind of raft...)
I'm male and poor, so... I'd die.
I started watching your videos a week or two ago when you had 15k an now you’re almost at 19k. i’m super happy for you and your content is quality an you deserve all the support. keep going 💪💪
Really interesting insight! I never thought about that possibility. Thanks for all these great videos :)
Sam keeps telling us to 'keep up the good work', but I think we all know that Sam is the one who is doing the good work👏🏻💕
dangg why you gotta go live right before I go to work😂 at least I have something to look forward to
I enjoy all of your videos. Thank you for keeping this up!
Another great video! Love your analysis.
It’s commonly stated that the water in Titanic made it very heavy. The opposite is true. Water underwater is weightless. Moreover, anything underwater experiences a buoyancy force that makes it lighter than it would be otherwise. A significant portion of Titanic was submerged by the time the stern was thrust upward out of the water. This is simply because that much metal, even underwater, was able to leverage a smaller portion of the ship, the stern.
Weight is distributed proportionally to displacement. Goal was also heavy. Ship was heavy.
I love your videos. Thanks for doing this. Much love :)
Thanks...interesting to me.
I find you very easy to follow and you are so appreciative of your audience...keep up the great work..
I’m excited
Please do a video on the White Star Line Repertoire, and what Titanic's passengers might have heard the band play.
Excellent video as always!
Another fantastic "what if" video! Looking forward to the Fitzgerald video! Keep up the great work! 😁
The wireless system had a standby engine - generator that was located on the roof that could have kept the wireless system at full power if necessary. I believe that parts of the wireless system such as the rotary break motor ran on alternating current that produced the Titanic's distinctive tone or note when she was transmitting this unit could not have been operated from battery power.
You are correct of course the problem with all of these systems as they were all powered by Steam so really the people working in the boiler rooms were the true heroes of the disaster they kept those boilers lit as long as humanly possible to provide steam to Oliver systems including the backup Dynamo Electric System that was located in the stern of the ship there was a secondary backup Dynamo steam power turbine room higher up in the stern of the ship that you could divert Steam from one of the boiler rooms to in the event that there was flooding in the engine room or some other failure with the main Dynamo system and this backup system would provide emergency power to the ship and power to the wireless set and in fact as the boiler rooms were compromised with flooding and the engine room became compromised with flooding they were able to get that emergency Dynamo system online and provide Power in the very last moments of Titanic's life and also it is the reason why the lights stayed on even after the ship broke apart because after she broke apart the thinking is that there was still enough steam pressure in that pipe system to keep that Dynamo running for a few seconds after the ship had broken to thus keeping those lights on in the stern for just a second or two there are numerous eyewitness accounts that say that the lights stayed on the stern even after the ship broke into for a couple seconds
If the stern hit the iceberg. The Right Propeller would get damaged. And The Whole titanic sinking story would be different.
Love the videos man keep up the good work ill allways give them a like!
I've always wondered about this 🤔.. thank you for covering it!
Video on the Titanic insurance conspiracy theory ( debunking it cuz it doesnt make sense )
He mentioned it a while ago in a different video
Do you know what vid
@@stevetheweeb40 He already made that video. Just sort the videos from oldest to newest and you'll find it.
Possible video idea if you haven't checked it out would be "Titanic: Honor and Glory" its a game a hopefully fairly realistic recreation of the titantic you can explore, would love to see you check it out and see how well of a job they did
I love your channel keep up the great stuff!
Great vid, really makes you realize that, under the circumstances, the way she sank may have been the best case catastrophe scenario . Other than arriving at the New York docks of course.
I’d love to see you do videos on the USS Indianapolis sinking (how it sank, etc) since a lot of people don’t know that horrendous story.
I know of it, and I also know that our government blamed the Captain and essentially ruined him, instead of taking responsibility for their own lack of actions, even the captain of the sub that sank her said there was nothing the Captain Mcvay could've done
Video idea: a video on the missing keys to the cabinet containing the binoculars??
Historic travels and titanic have a relationship. Great video's man keep it up!
Great content! Love it man :)
Video Idea: the iceberg after it hit the titanic
Since I was a child I always tought of this...what about the iceberg? , seems stupid cuz its just Ice, but then again, always wondered
theres a few photos of a few suspected icebergs
Video idea: SS Nomadic
Good idea, the Nomadic is the only surviving Whitestar ship (Well, there are others but they're all wrecks at the bottom of the sea).
@@nicholasmaude6906 Yeah I totally agree. It was made to look similar to her big Sisters that she tendered, Olympic and Titanic. Lots of similar design features and like you said, only surviving White star ship above the water!
great video as always
Fascinating what ifs, fantastic video :)
I think Titanic had emergency power.
But those light's were only in the staircases some corridors and on the ships decks.
Two 30 kW auxiliary generators for emergency use.
hey sorry i dident have time to join in for the premire because of diner plans but i don't know if you saw my comment in the lifeboat video but i just wanted to tell you that in the video you said the funnel almost hit collapsable b but if im not mistaken the funnels fell to starboard not port when collapsable b was on the port side
I thought the very same thing but I listened to a recording of Charles Lightoller where he says the funnel falling down created a wave which pushed collapsible B away from Titanic. I would love to hear this anomaly explained because unless I’m mistaken in every report it’s stated the funnels fell to starboard.
your vids get better and better!
@History Travels i have so much respect and interest for your channel love the work pal
historic travels*
Here's an idea: Whats the story of the lifeboats after the ship sank. Like where did they all end up overtime.
No one actually knows. After the inquiries the recovered life boats disappear from recorded history. Many of their unique identifiers were removed quickly by collectors, already anticipating a hot market and/or workmen. Without those they were most likely quietly pressed back into service on other ships, possibly even the Olympic since lifeboats weren't exactly cheap and demand for them had just skyrocketed. The few that weren't recovered probably drifted until they rotted apart.
In some parallel universe, this probably happened.
I started watching you about a month ago and I love your channel so much :)
Love your videos thank you
It’s unhealthy how obsessed I am with this ship lol
Hi! Quick correction- Titanic's Turbine was used to drive the central propeller, and her electricity was generated by reciprocating engines that drove generators.
@@nathanbond8165 no, I never said they ran off the main engines. They had their own Reciprocating engines, you can actually find pictures of Olympic's Generators online.
@@nathanbond8165 static.wikia.nocookie.net/titanic/images/9/95/Electrical-machinery-diagram-titanic-science-source.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20191108012616 here is a link to a snippet from Titanic's plans, showing the 4 reciprocating engines that drove the generators. She had emergency Dynamos on D deck, which is a steam turbine driven generator, but those only kicked in in the event that all four Reciprocating generators failed.
@@sburbStuck well sir I stand corrected I misunderstood your post sorry but it seems to me that it would have been more energy efficient to run the Electric dynamos off of steam turbines instead of reciprocating engines but that does make a lot more sense that you would have an independent reciprocating engine to run the dynamos because the main reciprocating engine direct drive to the propellers other words if the engines were working the propellers were spinning
@@nathanbond8165 yeah, but to be fair, steam turbine technology was very new at the time and very expensive. It made sense to use one for a ship's main propulsion, but not as much for 4 steam powered generators. Reciprocating engines needed less steam to operate, less maintenance and we're proven reliable, so it made more sense at the time.
@@sburbStuck very interesting I understand what you're saying about new and expensive technology but more reliable steam turbine or any kind of turbine engine is extremely reliable with the exception of that 767 jet engine this week that came apart in there but even that is an extremely rare event to have one of those jet engine destruct themself in flight and I have a sneaking suspicion the reason that engine came apart is because Airlines to save money because of the whole pandemic nonsense have really reduce the maintenance programs of their aircraft in order to save money and try and save their industry therefore I would be very worried about flying on a jet for the next year or so after the pandemic because of what kind of condition these planes are in after they've been sitting on tarmac for months and months and months on end with no maintenance
These “what if” videos are amazing, thank you.
this was so interesting!! the going down faster and how she split part never occurred to me in terms of the engines. That's awesome!

Excellent analysis! :)
Great show well thought out
Hey Sam can you do a video of what if the Titanic didn’t sink if the Titanic did have a long career at sea if it didn’t sink there is two options
1. The Titanic sold for scrap just like her sister Olympic
2. The Titanic becomes a floating museum or hotel like the Queen Marry
I'd say 1. The ship was worth more as scrap then a museum/hotel.
@@paulboger7377 I think I have to disagree with that because the Titanic is a ship that we all care about because we have the movies do fact the hole reason why the Titanic is historic ship because it is unsinkable for example the queen Mary in Long Beach was the biggest ship in world during her times as a ocean liner but she is not unsinkable like the Titanic is
@@drewadventurehistory, I was thinking on how much it would cost to maintain her as such.
@@paulboger7377 well how did it cost to build the Titanic
Dude congrats on how well this channel is doing great videos still waiting for the what if the blue man group played on the deck of the ship as it sank
Once again... You are the Man!
No matter how much I read or watch, I can never get enough of talking and learning and thinking and speculate on the Titanic. It doesn’t seem real in a way. Some people might think me ghoulish, but every time I watch a re-enactment animation I’m filled with such a deep reverence for the souls that suffered such unimaginable terror that night. I don’t want an animation that’s gory. It’s honestly not needed. Just knowing what happened is truly the stuff that no horror film could begin to match. I would just love to know more about them and their stories. Especially with films like Titanic being very misleading to the average person who knows little about it. It’s truly hard to grasp that she still sits disintegrating miles below us. I’m so glad to see other people interested and keeping the story alive. Subbed, love your enthusiasm! I could honestly talk about the Titanic all day, oddly enough I don’t know anybody who shares that passion 😆
I love how your video titles are like:
"What if Titanic had sunk sideways in a 36 degree angle?"
"Could Titanic have survived if a donkey which was missing an ear was on board?"
"Would Titanic have sunk had she hit a volcano instead of an iceberg?"
"What happened to the floor board in the smoking lounge of the first class passengers after she split in half?"
:D
The switch theory on Titanic and Olympic is a good video discussion with your knowledge and perspective.
I love your videos a lot
I really enjoyed your recommended video Titanic in her own words that was an amazing video
