I was a cinematographer working with James Cameron on that 2001 Titanic expedition. This wonderful video presentation brings back many memories. In the search for the Renault Type CB Coupe de Ville, Jim navigated one of our ROV's ("Jake" I think) into the forward hold, all the way down to the Orlop deck - he could just make out the outline of that distinctive curved fender and what looked like a brass headlamp. Not everyone on our crew agreed, however there was a small celebration on the Keldysh that evening! Thank you for all of your enjoyable presentations on Titanic. They mean a lot to me.

I heard at the time that Cameron's crew attempted to find it but the hold was too filled with debris to locate it. If there's a photo of its remains I would love to see it.
Do you think the fact it's buried has slowed it's decay a bit or is it the same as the rest of the wreck? Wondering if the day it's structure inevitably fails things like this would become visible for the first time.
Titanic was probably one of the only disasters where someone could have said at the time "An automobile went down with the ship" and someone would have responded "...a what?"
@@robw9728 True, but back then cars were more of a novelty, and there were probably lots of people in the 3rd class bracket who wouldn't know what on earth an "automobile" was at the time, hence the joke.
"An automobile, You know, like Henry Ford's Model T" "Oh, you mean a horseless carriage. I can't stand those things. They're noisy and make a lot of smoke."
A moment of appreciation for all the people who chose not to let items of historical significance disappear into private collections and instead lend them to museums. Hartley’s violin is an absolutely stunning and emotional exhibit, I stood in front of it for full 20 minutes.
I’d love to see a video on the kitchens, chefs and cooks, and the “state of the art” equipment used for cooking on the titanic. I remember a tv documentary series from 2012 where people built replicas of lost items and one of them was a big oven used to cook meals and they recreated a menu selection.

I finally get to comment on a TH-cam vid with something interesting! I currently work as an actor at the museum that exhibits the only other existing model of the 1912 Renault that went down with the Titanic. Since I play a Titanic passenger, I got to take pictures with it in a photo shoot. Such an amazing experience!
@@punkypink83 I did! In a 1912 costume and even touching the car. Definitely one of the highlights of the year for me. (The car is currently at Volo Auto Museum. They have a really great Titanic exhibit for anyone local)

Thank You, Mike Brady, for finally explaining to me what the HECK a jeweled copy of the Rubiyat is! I have been OBSESSED with Titanic since before its discovery when I was a kid. I have never been able to figure out how a book was considered Jeweled. It’s the binding! Thank you for finally helping me figure it out! It, like you, are a treasure!
I too have studied TITANIC. I first read about TITANIC in a 1912 book called The Wreck and Sinking of the TITANIC. I have an original copy in my TITANIC memorabilia. My girlfriend is related to Eva Hart,a TITANIC surviver, and her and I have a son together. So I have a personal connection to the ship. Glad to make acquaintance with a fellow TITANIC enthusiasts.

I find it so sad. Humans lives many more years of life than animals, yes animals deserve love and affection, but how many years that dog had left on earth? 5? 2? Big breeds live up to 10, 12 max. The woman could have decades to live yet, but she sadly decided to die with her dog.. And I mean, didnt she had any other ppl that her loved? Or who loved her? Her dying like that with her dog wasnt good neither for her nor for the supposedly ppl who loved her (or whom she loved). Anyways, some may argue that it was love for the dog but imo it was just a waste, unfortunately. I also believe that SOME (rare) human relationships are stronger than a human-dog one, no matter how close a human-dog one may be, it cant be stronger than having sex with the love of your life for example, or the laughs and conversartions you have with this person... a dog is an amazing partnership, but theres some limitations, eg. You cant have dialogues, etc..
You have such a pleasant Australian accent Mike. Always a pleasure to hear you speak about things. On an unrelated note, a line from the Rubaiyat (the book of Persian poems) was found in the Somerton Man's pocket. That book had been very popular in Australia at the beginning of the 20th century.
Fascinating. It never dawned on me but of course, how obvious that the Titanic would have been carrying exquisite artifacts. This episode was very intriguing indeed. Thank you sir.
I’m a new fan (and new to an interest ships in general), and this was a phenomenal video! The first video I ever watched by you was the sinking of the Lusitania and it was one of the best TH-cam videos I’ve ever seen! This is a wonderful channel with really awesome videos, and I look forward to all the ones I have yet to see!
Same here! New subject of interest and also same 1st video was lusitania. Thats enough things in common, we should go on a first date, im picking you at 8 pm. 😽😂 Sincerely, those videos are very cool.
I said on the first upload, Mike, I love your opening music. It’s short, as one would want, but still epic and grand. And the ship whistle finish is perfection. Bravo sir.
It is unbelievable what all was lost that cold dark night -- approximately 1,500 lives -- one or more who could have made world changing discoveries that might have prevented so much suffering and saved countless other lives, immeasurable value of just the jewelry items, the personal items that meant the world to each individual that brought them along, the hopes and dreams that were lost, the value of the wine and alcohol alone, the food, etc. THANK YOU MIKE, for reminding us of just how much was lost that could never be replaced!
the least of which would be fighting and challenging the creation of the "Federal Reserve", which is such a misleading name. it's rogue non-government controlled cabal of evil pricks who run that "bank". the first of many steps for transferring money to the top to keep the proles down and living in misery.
@@zeppelinboysAstor and Guggenheim weren't against its formation though? Neither man spoke on the matter publically and evidence from both estates indicate varied levels of interest from both men in the concept. Strauss on the otherhand was an early and vocal supporter of the Federal Reserve.
I’m pretty sure Magellan is still giving him issues. In his 3D scan of the wreck video, they left a nasty comment threatening to take him to court if he didn’t remove the video because they only gave BBC the right to use their video of the scan . If you noticed when he initially uploaded this video, the thumbnail was Magellan’s shot of the shark tooth necklace from when they did the scan. Now, it’s a shot of the Renault. Granted, the initial thumbnail also had Oceanliner Design’s mark in the top right corner and because Magellan’s mark appeared to have been removed from the bottom right corner, they may have had some standing there to make him take it down. As soon as I saw it, I had a feeling they were going to say something and just as I was watching the last few minutes of the video, poof, it went to private lol. As far as the 3D scan of the wreck video goes, in my opinion, Mike is 💯 covered by Fair Use (which is probably why it’s still up) and to be completely honest, I think it’s pretty crappy of them to even make a stink over it when Mike had given them all the credit and praise for the work they did. EDIT: Looks like I spoke a little too soon on saying the 3d scan wreck video was still up…that video is now private. I wish I could give the 🖕 to Magellan. That was such a great video that I watched multiple times…why they wouldn’t want people to see it and appreciate it is beyond me. Leaves a horrible taste in my mouth about the company.
It would be a dated old liner with little usefulness. Study the USS America no one could figure out how to monetize a refurbishment. We use aircraft to traverse the oceans today, not ocean liners.
Don't forget the trumpet that was recovered by Dirk Pitt when he was searching for the Titanic. The byzanium that was thought to be onboard would have been extremely valuable. Thank God for Southby. The Mona Lisa was almost lost on the Titanic, but a guy with a pocket watch time machine recovered it and escaped at the last moment.
My Aunt (1904-1974) had a long time employer who was married in England and was scheduled to return to America on the Titanic. Her wealthy husband, however, became ill so they cancelled their passage and subsequently returned on a later ship. All of their wedding gifts, on the other hand, were already sent ahead and lost when the ship went down.
I think one of the most heartbreaking things I ever realized was that when something is in a "private collection", all that means is that "some guy has it". I wish the Rubaiyat could be recovered.
My grandmother's best friend was Maude Sincock. She was a 2nd class passenger who turned 21 while they were on the Carpathia. Maude and my grandmother, Mildred, became friends as they got older and live across the hall from each other at the Lakeview Manor in Hancock, Michigan. When I was a child, 4 - 6 years old, I would spend nights at her, my grandmother, apartment. We would visit Maude and have tea and crumpets. Maude would talk about her experience on the Titanic. Ever since then, I have had a fascination with the ship.
Mr. Brady; I find you not only knowledgeable, but very easy to listen to! Great voice and manner of speaking; I enjoy ALL your videos immensely! Thank you!
Honestly? The ship itself is a treasure. If you counted the ship herself, she'd win. Between the woodworking, the amazing engineering, and all of the incredible work put into her by her builders and engineers, is remarkable. Her loss is a deep tragedy.
Ships can be recreated. The loss of a ship is not a tragedy. The only tragedy is the loss of the passengers. Material things can always be recreated, as they were originally created by man. Without man, no material thing will ever be created again. But don’t worry, losing a material possession to most members of programmed, modern society, is definitely a tragedy to them. Them and their tiny tiny minds.
@@DownEastSaw I'm replying to the subject of the video, not the disaster itself. I don't think I have to say that the deaths of the people is significantly worse than any material loss... but I guess I have to be politically correct. Also, you're not corrected about material things either; a lot of the wood on Titanic is likely endangered and not permitted to be used. Many of the craftsmen who did the work don't exist anymore, and very, very few have kept those skills. Why do you think we don't see very many stone or exotic wooden homes anymore?
@@DownEastSawYou really just came here to try look smart and impose yourself to internet randoms? Thats what i really call a small mind, how insecure you have to be lmao.
@@DownEastSaw the loss of material things can be a tragedy. Yes, many of them can be replaced but they take time, energy and resources to make the first time and to make a second time. And as it may be there's not always a second time. It's not hard to value both people and things.
This had 3 views when I clicked on, goodness I'm a nerd for ships. Anything pertaining to them as a subject, it drives such a peculiar curiosity I've had since a young age and I cannot explain the passionate interest that's formed since. These videos are always very well explained and thorough. For someone like myself who can't help but soak up all they can about ships? Good stuff, all around.
I'm glad to see that RTT gets appreciation among this community. The movie adaptation is among my top 10 favourite films of all time. Somewhere in time and space there's propably a parallel universe where the film adaptation wasn't a box office bomb, but instead a well received classic with a much smoother production course.
@@arttus1287 There's a universe out there where Dirk Pitt is their equivalent to James Bond, with many successful movies and other media, Raise The Titanic being one of them. I grew up on Cussler's books, thanks to my dad.
@@Phordless_Cone Yeah I agree, Cussler wrote many good books. I think Night Probe, Atlantis Found and Arctic Drift would've especially made good films. Deep Six and Flood Tide also had some cool plot elements that would've been cool to see on the big screen. I got introduced to the Dirk Pitt books after seeing Raise The Titanic on youtube back in the day. I always imagine Pitt and Sandecker in the books as Richard Jordan and Jason Robards although Cussler described them to be quite different in appearance. Rudi Gunn on the other hand is Dwight Schrute from The Office because he was played by Rainn Wilson in 2005's Sahara haha lol.
Mr Carters brand new Renault was awesome Mike and I guess the lives lost would have been the most valuable thing on Titanic . Thank you for another awesome vid.
I have my grandpa's Waltham gold pocket watch that I got when my dad passed away in 2006. It is very similar to J. J. Astor's watch. It is gold, as I said, and didn't work when I got it. I had it cleaned and worked on by a watchsmith, and now it runs fine (I have to remember to wind it). I keep it in my purse at all times, but do use it daily. Its value is around $3000. I keep it for sentimental reasons. I may sell it in a few years. It's not engraved. Very interesting and enjoyable video as always. (Jan Griffiths).
8:36 between the water currents during the plunge and debris smashing into it, im going to guess the body of the car was torn to pieces before reaching bottom. Poor thing.
Hey brother, this is the first video of yours I’ve been able to watch in months. Been having some family emergencies one after the next. It is such a breath of fresh air to watch a video to hear about RMS Titanic. Thank you sir
This presentation hammers home the value of life and the items we possess, from the mundane to the extravagantly valuable. Your presentations are filled with knowledge and history about this fascinating time and our fascination with all things Titanic. Thank you for all you do.
i LOVE your channel man, i've had an uncontrollable obsession over titanic and ships in general ever since i first watched james cameron's titanic in theaters when i was 8 during the 100th anniversary in 2012, i'm glad others share my passion, and not just old people lol, keep up the good work your channel is amazing
I bought the game "Titanic Adventure out of Time" back in the early 2000's Loved it. The ability to tour the ship was very cool. I still have it, though I haven't tried to play it since windows XP
Love this channel! Would really like to see some sort of demonstration or tutorial on how you make your amazing art (if you ever run out of historical boat things to discuss)
Thanks Mike for the well researched and presented content! This one is particularly interesting to me as a violinist and player of the mentioned video game in my youth (mostly to get to walk around on the Titanic until getting shot by Vlad, exiting the boiler room with the Rubáiyát in my bag). -Your friend GC.
Thank you so much for all your work on these videos! I really wish there was a guided tour of what is known of the debris field. So much attention is focused on the wreck itself and a couple of items like the champagne bottles. While I know, a lot of it may be unrecognizable debris, I would still love to see more of what we know of the debris field and what other artifacts can be found there. Love your channel and thanks for everything!
I had one friend who worked on the coding and another who did some graphic design and is actually in the game as a bellhop! It was jarring to hear another voice matched to the character.
I was halfway through watching the original upload when it crapped out with a 'this vid is private' banner ... Cheers for uploading again ... but that's just what we'd expect from our #FriendMikeBrady
4/29/24 CBS “A pocket watch that belonged to the wealthiest passenger aboard the Titanic was auctioned in England Saturday for $1.46 million (£1.17 million), breaking the record for an object linked to the 1912 disaster, an auction house said this weekend. An American buyer won the bidding war for John Jacob Astor IV's 14-carat gold Waltham pocket watch, shattering the auctioneer's pre-sale estimate of £150,000, according to Henry Aldridge & Son. The watch, engraved with the initials JJA, was found along with Astor's body when his remains were recovered several days after the Titanic sank. He was also found with a diamond ring, gold and diamond cufflinks, 225 pounds in English notes, and $2,440.“
Henry Elkins Widener and his father went down with the titanic. Henry was coming back from a trip to buy books for his collection. No telling what he had purchased that was lost. In Memorial Widener. ‘S mother donated the money to build Harvard’s Widener library, one of the largest libraries in the country
No, if the watch was immersed in sea water it doesn't work anymore. The mechanical parts were spoiled by the water. The watches weren't water-tight back then. You might as well buy a new watch because the insides would have to be replaced almost entirely! Most metal does not resist salt water very well. You can see this on Titanic herself! The bronze capstans (the fixtures that hold on the dock ropes) and the bronze propeller blades have held up because bronze resists salt water corrosion. There are plenty of watches that people had that they kept after the sinking that were ruined that night. Some of them had stains later on from where hands were worn off.
You Missed one, Jacques Futrelle a mystery writer, his final book was with him on his way back on the titanic sadly no copies of it remain. I was lucky to find a complete set of his "Thinking Machine" stories when I was young and then almost cried when I did research (pre internet) and found out about the lost of his book and his life.
8:00 I have always wondered if some parts of the Renault oldtimer were found in Titanic's wreck, because it was in one of the cargo holds and several videos of the wreck show this widely open cargo hatch, the covering door was blown away due to the impact when Titanic hit the ground of the sea. Are there any videos of an ROV investigating the cargo holds of the ship? They must be easily accessible, but I've only seen videos of the Grand Staircase and some stern areas so far.
Not everything is better in a museum. As a collector of (significantly less valuable) items, I love to share my collection with others. The reason I don't donate my collection to a museum is that it would be filed away in a nondescript warehouse somewhere and never see the light of day. Unless an item is amazing enough to be put on permanent display, it's probably best in private hands, since private collectors actually appreciate the things they have collected.
@@TheEDFLegacy I work at the University of Oregon, and clean some of the Museum of Natural and Cultural History. 99% of their collection has never been seen by the general public.
I agree entirely. Museums are run by people who have no skin in the game. They didn't have to spend any of their money to get the items. And it seems to me that, when someone get's something for free, they do not value it the same, no matter it's actual worth. I've seen a LOT of disrespect for old stuff as a result. I'm sure there are good museums, staffed by genuinely virtuous people. But eventually they leave, and there's no guarantee of who'll replace them. Even a good museum is ultimately fleeting. If the museum has truly special items, I'm sure they're safe. But when they posses "run of the mill" antiquities, all bets are off.
@@JamesG-k5f I didn't say "random" people. The whole point of museums is to safeguard collections so they can be displayed to random people. When museums don't do their job, private collectors step up--at the cost to the public's access.
I think one of the things that keep drawing us bak to Titanic are all of the personal stories. I do hope that one day all of these items could be collected and distributed to museums.
Mike, another great video. Well done. I’m so glad to see you were able to get it back up because I still had a few minutes left when it was taken down. I’m really disappointed to see your video highlighting the new 3D scan by Magellan has been put on private though and I really hope you’re able to find a way to get it back online. I personally feel you were completely covered by Fair Use but I do understand not wanting to be tied up in court with them over it. Just know we stand by you and your work 💯.
Hello Mike, Just curious if you ever thought of doing a video on the boy and his Steiff polar bear. His mother wrote a story about the family's trip abroad and on the Titanic. The story centered around her son's Steiff polar bear. The story was titled, Polar the Titanic Bear. Very interesting story.❤ In fact, you showed a photo of the boy playing on deck and his father during this video.😊
@@tessat338 Yes, and even his prized Steiff bear which he thought was lost. But sadly the boy would die in the first New Hampshire car accident death not long after Titanic. Douglas Spedden was the Spedden's only child.
Always a thrill to see you posting a hot off the press video no matter what the subject may be. I'll bet you could do a great video highlighting all the great treasures available for purchase at the Purser's locker. That guy has a treasure trove of things we all might find of interest from his past acquisitions to his latest. Just a thought if you're looking for any ideas for your next video.
@@fmyoungIt’s been in Philadelphia for a while, the organization in charge was trying to turn it into a museum or hotel or mixed use etc but nothing came of it. The current plan is to sink it in Florida to make an artificial reef rather than scrapping it.
I was shocked when you showed a picture of the pocket watch at the end of the video. I have the exact same model waltham. Its been passed down through our family since it was bought new by my great great great grandfather in 1907.
When it comes to historical events and artifacts people who actually decide to keep it private disgust me…especially when it’s a massive event in history like Titanic

the least of which would be fighting and challenging the creation of the "Federal Reserve", which is such a misleading name. it's rogue non-government controlled cabal of evil pricks who run that "bank". the first of many steps for transferring money to the top to keep the proles down and living in misery.
@@zeppelinboysAstor and Guggenheim weren't against its formation though? Neither man spoke on the matter publically and evidence from both estates indicate varied levels of interest from both men in the concept.
Strauss on the otherhand was an early and vocal supporter of the Federal Reserve.
Reupload? I was halfway through the original version from earlier.
I was like NOOOO I WAS WATCHING THAT 😭
i finished it but noticed there were no comments as well as no way to comment, then when i went back to the main page it was gone.
TH-cam didn't like the nekked lady painting maybe?
I’m pretty sure Magellan is still giving him issues. In his 3D scan of the wreck video, they left a nasty comment threatening to take him to court if he didn’t remove the video because they only gave BBC the right to use their video of the scan .
If you noticed when he initially uploaded this video, the thumbnail was Magellan’s shot of the shark tooth necklace from when they did the scan. Now, it’s a shot of the Renault. Granted, the initial thumbnail also had Oceanliner Design’s mark in the top right corner and because Magellan’s mark appeared to have been removed from the bottom right corner, they may have had some standing there to make him take it down. As soon as I saw it, I had a feeling they were going to say something and just as I was watching the last few minutes of the video, poof, it went to private lol.
As far as the 3D scan of the wreck video goes, in my opinion, Mike is 💯 covered by Fair Use (which is probably why it’s still up) and to be completely honest, I think it’s pretty crappy of them to even make a stink over it when Mike had given them all the credit and praise for the work they did.
EDIT: Looks like I spoke a little too soon on saying the 3d scan wreck video was still up…that video is now private.
I wish I could give the 🖕 to Magellan. That was such a great video that I watched multiple times…why they wouldn’t want people to see it and appreciate it is beyond me. Leaves a horrible taste in my mouth about the company.
@@Acrobaticfix1987thank you 💕 I watched, liked and commented and seen it show up with different thumbnail 😮 I thought I was losing it 😅
Hey it’s our friend Mike Brady from Oceanliner Designs!
It’s Titanic time ⏰
"A horrible dark night". The material losses were significant, but secondary.
The most expensive thing lost in the Titanic disaster: the Titanic
It would be a dated old liner with little usefulness. Study the USS America no one could figure out how to monetize a refurbishment. We use aircraft to traverse the oceans today, not ocean liners.
@@fensterlips Chode.
How about 1517 souls

John Jacob Astor IV was worth $90 million.
The Titanic cost $7.5 million to make.
Don't forget the trumpet that was recovered by Dirk Pitt when he was searching for the Titanic. The byzanium that was thought to be onboard would have been extremely valuable. Thank God for Southby. The Mona Lisa was almost lost on the Titanic, but a guy with a pocket watch time machine recovered it and escaped at the last moment.
"If you wanna learn more, go to the Library, it is all in the books!"
Was that before or after he raised it. Love Dirk Pitt ❤
Fantastic segment, Mike - simply fascinating. Thanks for your ongoing efforts to bring this world event into even greater focus for us.
My Aunt (1904-1974) had a long time employer who was married in England and was scheduled to return to America on the Titanic. Her wealthy husband, however, became ill so they cancelled their passage and subsequently returned on a later ship. All of their wedding gifts, on the other hand, were already sent ahead and lost when the ship went down.
I think one of the most heartbreaking things I ever realized was that when something is in a "private collection", all that means is that "some guy has it".
I wish the Rubaiyat could be recovered.
My grandmother's best friend was Maude Sincock. She was a 2nd class passenger who turned 21 while they were on the Carpathia. Maude and my grandmother, Mildred, became friends as they got older and live across the hall from each other at the Lakeview Manor in Hancock, Michigan. When I was a child, 4 - 6 years old, I would spend nights at her, my grandmother, apartment. We would visit Maude and have tea and crumpets. Maude would talk about her experience on the Titanic. Ever since then, I have had a fascination with the ship.
Mr. Brady;
I find you not only knowledgeable, but very easy to listen to! Great voice and manner of speaking; I enjoy ALL your videos immensely! Thank you!
Always interesting and entertaining Mike. Thank you...
Honestly? The ship itself is a treasure. If you counted the ship herself, she'd win. Between the woodworking, the amazing engineering, and all of the incredible work put into her by her builders and engineers, is remarkable. Her loss is a deep tragedy.
Ships can be recreated. The loss of a ship is not a tragedy. The only tragedy is the loss of the passengers. Material things can always be recreated, as they were originally created by man. Without man, no material thing will ever be created again.
But don’t worry, losing a material possession to most members of programmed, modern society, is definitely a tragedy to them. Them and their tiny tiny minds.
@@DownEastSaw I'm replying to the subject of the video, not the disaster itself. I don't think I have to say that the deaths of the people is significantly worse than any material loss... but I guess I have to be politically correct.
Also, you're not corrected about material things either; a lot of the wood on Titanic is likely endangered and not permitted to be used. Many of the craftsmen who did the work don't exist anymore, and very, very few have kept those skills. Why do you think we don't see very many stone or exotic wooden homes anymore?
@TheEDFLegacy I'd disagree with you about the ship itself. Had it not sank, it would of been scrapped come WW2, assuming it made it through WW1.
@@DownEastSawYou really just came here to try look smart and impose yourself to internet randoms? Thats what i really call a small mind, how insecure you have to be lmao.
@@DownEastSaw the loss of material things can be a tragedy. Yes, many of them can be replaced but they take time, energy and resources to make the first time and to make a second time. And as it may be there's not always a second time. It's not hard to value both people and things.
This had 3 views when I clicked on, goodness I'm a nerd for ships. Anything pertaining to them as a subject, it drives such a peculiar curiosity I've had since a young age and I cannot explain the passionate interest that's formed since. These videos are always very well explained and thorough. For someone like myself who can't help but soak up all they can about ships? Good stuff, all around.
Ok

A few more Titanic facts of which I was unaware. Thanks!

You're videos are always of the most exquisite quality and presentation. Thank you.
Well, byzanium of course!
I came to the comments to find the first one that said it and tip my hat 😂
I'm glad to see that RTT gets appreciation among this community. The movie adaptation is among my top 10 favourite films of all time.
Somewhere in time and space there's propably a parallel universe where the film adaptation wasn't a box office bomb, but instead a well received classic with a much smoother production course.
@@arttus1287 There's a universe out there where Dirk Pitt is their equivalent to James Bond, with many successful movies and other media, Raise The Titanic being one of them. I grew up on Cussler's books, thanks to my dad.
No. That’s just a misdirection.
@@Phordless_Cone Yeah I agree, Cussler wrote many good books. I think Night Probe, Atlantis Found and Arctic Drift would've especially made good films. Deep Six and Flood Tide also had some cool plot elements that would've been cool to see on the big screen.
I got introduced to the Dirk Pitt books after seeing Raise The Titanic on youtube back in the day. I always imagine Pitt and Sandecker in the books as Richard Jordan and Jason Robards although Cussler described them to be quite different in appearance. Rudi Gunn on the other hand is Dwight Schrute from The Office because he was played by Rainn Wilson in 2005's Sahara haha lol.
I loved that Titanic computer game! I played it often in my childhood and finally finished it a couple years ago after finding it online.
Mr Carters brand new Renault was awesome Mike and I guess the lives lost would have been the most valuable thing on Titanic . Thank you for another awesome vid.
Thank you for this lovely video and extraordinary history❤
Awsome video and very educational. Thank you for all the hard work you do to bring these videos to us. You are much appreciated.
Great video Mike! That's a nice topic you brought right here because it is rarely discussed among Titanic's videos I saw so far. ;)
The quality and consistency of your channel always impressed me Mike, keep up the excellent work, your little channel puts major networks to shame.
I saw that very violin at the Titanic museum in Pigeon Forge Tennessee. Very cool!
Thanks for telling me. I'll have to check that out
The loss of human life.Priceless!
Give it a few decades and the same videos will be made of 9/11.
Not really, without demise history would not exist 👍
I have my grandpa's Waltham gold pocket watch that I got when my dad passed away in 2006. It is very similar to J. J. Astor's watch. It is gold, as I said, and didn't work when I got it. I had it cleaned and worked on by a watchsmith, and now it runs fine (I have to remember to wind it). I keep it in my purse at all times, but do use it daily. Its value is around $3000. I keep it for sentimental reasons. I may sell it in a few years. It's not engraved. Very interesting and enjoyable video as always. (Jan Griffiths).
8:36 between the water currents during the plunge and debris smashing into it, im going to guess the body of the car was torn to pieces before reaching bottom. Poor thing.
Man I love so much Titanic's lore. Please do more videos with the same topic but for other shipwrecks!!
Fantastic video as always Mike, thanks for sharing.
Hey brother, this is the first video of yours I’ve been able to watch in months. Been having some family emergencies one after the next. It is such a breath of fresh air to watch a video to hear about RMS Titanic. Thank you sir
The violin was found in 2013? Absolutely incredible. I really liked this episode very much. Things I never knew, let alone considered.
Thanks, Mike: Always enjoy your presentations -- sad as they may be!
Hi Garrett!! 👋🏻😆 0:41
This presentation hammers home the value of life and the items we possess, from the mundane to the extravagantly valuable. Your presentations are filled with knowledge and history about this fascinating time and our fascination with all things Titanic. Thank you for all you do.
i LOVE your channel man, i've had an uncontrollable obsession over titanic and ships in general ever since i first watched james cameron's titanic in theaters when i was 8 during the 100th anniversary in 2012, i'm glad others share my passion, and not just old people lol, keep up the good work your channel is amazing
I bought the game "Titanic Adventure out of Time" back in the early 2000's Loved it.
The ability to tour the ship was very cool. I still have it, though I haven't tried to play it since windows XP
Great content and wonderful job Mike. You’re amazing!
So fascinating! I love all of the Titanic videos you upload. Thank you for sharing. And you rock them fancy clothes lol!
It's always an amazing day when our friend Mike Brady posts 🎉
That horn from the intro sounds like my father after a long day of drinking Genesee cream ale !
Treasures indeed. Much like Mike Bradys Oceanliner Designs Video Archives will be one day !🫴🤗🙏FOMBS
Love this channel! Would really like to see some sort of demonstration or tutorial on how you make your amazing art (if you ever run out of historical boat things to discuss)
Thanks Mike for the well researched and presented content! This one is particularly interesting to me as a violinist and player of the mentioned video game in my youth (mostly to get to walk around on the Titanic until getting shot by Vlad, exiting the boiler room with the Rubáiyát in my bag). -Your friend GC.
I’m so excited for this video, saving it for tonight time proper
Thank you so much for all your work on these videos! I really wish there was a guided tour of what is known of the debris field. So much attention is focused on the wreck itself and a couple of items like the champagne bottles. While I know, a lot of it may be unrecognizable debris, I would still love to see more of what we know of the debris field and what other artifacts can be found there. Love your channel and thanks for everything!
I am happy to see Titanic: An Adventure out of Time get a shout out. I played that game so much as a kid.
I had one friend who worked on the coding and another who did some graphic design and is actually in the game as a bellhop! It was jarring to hear another voice matched to the character.
Same!
Same!
Thanks again for your dedication to Ocean liners!!!
I was halfway through watching the original upload when it crapped out with a 'this vid is private' banner ... Cheers for uploading again ... but that's just what we'd expect from our #FriendMikeBrady
The most valuable item which didn’t sink: Astor’s watch. It sold for $1,471,000 and I wonder what became of his cuff links.
Would that be...the watch that was found on his...earthly remains..? If so, then that would be rather obscene. I'll have to look this up.
@@monsieurcommissaire1628 yes that watch.
4/29/24 CBS
“A pocket watch that belonged to the wealthiest passenger aboard the Titanic was auctioned in England Saturday for $1.46 million (£1.17 million), breaking the record for an object linked to the 1912 disaster, an auction house said this weekend. An American buyer won the bidding war for John Jacob Astor IV's 14-carat gold Waltham pocket watch, shattering the auctioneer's pre-sale estimate of £150,000, according to Henry Aldridge & Son.
The watch, engraved with the initials JJA, was found along with Astor's body when his remains were recovered several days after the Titanic sank. He was also found with a diamond ring, gold and diamond cufflinks, 225 pounds in English notes, and $2,440.“
1. I wonder if John Jacob Astor’s watch still works.
2. A first edition of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens was lost when Lusitania sank. UGH.
Henry Elkins Widener and his father went down with the titanic. Henry was coming back from a trip to buy books for his collection. No telling what he had purchased that was lost. In Memorial Widener. ‘S mother donated the money to build Harvard’s Widener library, one of the largest libraries in the country
No, if the watch was immersed in sea water it doesn't work anymore. The mechanical parts were spoiled by the water. The watches weren't water-tight back then. You might as well buy a new watch because the insides would have to be replaced almost entirely! Most metal does not resist salt water very well. You can see this on Titanic herself! The bronze capstans (the fixtures that hold on the dock ropes) and the bronze propeller blades have held up because bronze resists salt water corrosion.
There are plenty of watches that people had that they kept after the sinking that were ruined that night. Some of them had stains later on from where hands were worn off.
@@AvengerIIin the video it was stated Astor’s son Vincent had the watch repaired. That’s why I asked if it still worked.
You Missed one, Jacques Futrelle a mystery writer, his final book was with him on his way back on the titanic sadly no copies of it remain. I was lucky to find a complete set of his "Thinking Machine" stories when I was young and then almost cried when I did research (pre internet) and found out about the lost of his book and his life.
Great 😃😃👍👍 video 😊😊 from Malaysia 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
Hay Couz - that RED car paint had to be full of LEAD - couldnt been so TASTY 🍀🇨🇦⚜️
I still have the titanic adventure out of time, it is definitely not a kids game and im amazed it still works to this day.
Bravo for an EXCELLENT and informative mini doc about Titanic. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow 😮 yet another, but especially fascinating video, from my friend Mike Brady! 😊
One of my favorite titanic videos you have made! 🙌🏻
13:50 What's eerie is the skull on the top left of the violin. Assuming that's the actual surviving violin in that pic.
Yes that is creepy. But if you look at contemporary photos of the violin, that area looks much less like a skull.
8:00 I have always wondered if some parts of the Renault oldtimer were found in Titanic's wreck, because it was in one of the cargo holds and several videos of the wreck show this widely open cargo hatch, the covering door was blown away due to the impact when Titanic hit the ground of the sea. Are there any videos of an ROV investigating the cargo holds of the ship? They must be easily accessible, but I've only seen videos of the Grand Staircase and some stern areas so far.
Another great video young man Congratulations from Aotearoa New Zealand 👏🇳🇿
Not everything is better in a museum. As a collector of (significantly less valuable) items, I love to share my collection with others. The reason I don't donate my collection to a museum is that it would be filed away in a nondescript warehouse somewhere and never see the light of day. Unless an item is amazing enough to be put on permanent display, it's probably best in private hands, since private collectors actually appreciate the things they have collected.
As someone who volunteers at a museum, that couldn't be further from the truth - at least in our case. Depends on the museum.
@@TheEDFLegacy I work at the University of Oregon, and clean some of the Museum of Natural and Cultural History. 99% of their collection has never been seen by the general public.
I agree entirely. Museums are run by people who have no skin in the game. They didn't have to spend any of their money to get the items. And it seems to me that, when someone get's something for free, they do not value it the same, no matter it's actual worth. I've seen a LOT of disrespect for old stuff as a result. I'm sure there are good museums, staffed by genuinely virtuous people. But eventually they leave, and there's no guarantee of who'll replace them. Even a good museum is ultimately fleeting. If the museum has truly special items, I'm sure they're safe. But when they posses "run of the mill" antiquities, all bets are off.
There's a lot of collectors that don't feel the same way. Understandably they don't want random people constantly wanting to look at their collection.
@@JamesG-k5f I didn't say "random" people. The whole point of museums is to safeguard collections so they can be displayed to random people. When museums don't do their job, private collectors step up--at the cost to the public's access.
Hey, it’s my friend Mike Brady from Ocean Liner Designs
Another great video, well done!!
Question, when they discovered the giant shark tooth at the wreck, what were the round things scattered around it?
Always enjoy your presentations... keep up the good work!
Only megafans know this is a reupload.
I think one of the things that keep drawing us bak to Titanic are all of the personal stories. I do hope that one day all of these items could be collected and distributed to museums.
Thanks Mike, great video.
Mike, another great video. Well done. I’m so glad to see you were able to get it back up because I still had a few minutes left when it was taken down.
I’m really disappointed to see your video highlighting the new 3D scan by Magellan has been put on private though and I really hope you’re able to find a way to get it back online. I personally feel you were completely covered by Fair Use but I do understand not wanting to be tied up in court with them over it. Just know we stand by you and your work 💯.
Hello Mike, Just curious if you ever thought of doing a video on the boy and his Steiff polar bear. His mother wrote a story about the family's trip abroad and on the Titanic. The story centered around her son's Steiff polar bear. The story was titled, Polar the Titanic Bear. Very interesting story.❤
In fact, you showed a photo of the boy playing on deck and his father during this video.😊
Thankfully, he and both of his parents made it into a lifeboat and were saved.
@@tessat338 Yes, and even his prized Steiff bear which he thought was lost. But sadly the boy would die in the first New Hampshire car accident death not long after Titanic. Douglas Spedden was the Spedden's only child.
Always a thrill to see you posting a hot off the press video no matter what the subject may be. I'll bet you could do a great video highlighting all the great treasures available for purchase at the Purser's locker. That guy has a treasure trove of things we all might find of interest from his past acquisitions to his latest. Just a thought if you're looking for any ideas for your next video.
I play Violin, love ships and have been lucky em to see Wallace Hartly's violin in the museum
I hope he will address what's happening to the S.S. United States. I wish more people knew about it.
I think you mean what happened to her? She was retired 55 years ago in 1969.
@@fmyoungIt’s been in Philadelphia for a while, the organization in charge was trying to turn it into a museum or hotel or mixed use etc but nothing came of it. The current plan is to sink it in Florida to make an artificial reef rather than scrapping it.
I was shocked when you showed a picture of the pocket watch at the end of the video. I have the exact same model waltham. Its been passed down through our family since it was bought new by my great great great grandfather in 1907.
When it comes to historical events and artifacts people who actually decide to keep it private disgust me…especially when it’s a massive event in history like Titanic
Love your videos, very informative and very knowledgeable
Very interesting. Something most people would not think about. Thank you.
Oi, Mike! Great Video as always!
