I recently also came by the thought that females aboard may not have declared pregnancy. Attaching soul status is still in the courts on that but I go by an aboriginal Australian logic that the fetuses get their souls around four to five months. I’m sure there where a few unknown souls around. Human souls.
Glad to see so many people here to honor the titanic on this night. And to honor all the people who died and survived that terrible night....god bless you all.
Lovely piece. I really enjoy Matt's commentary, and it was fun to see familiar faces from the various films. BTW, I do think THG should look at getting the stars right; they are more interesting than the random sparks shown. For one thing, the bright star Procyon was sited just off the top of the iceberg when it appeared, and Mars was visible not far above that. Fleet and Lee were staring straight at Procyon - a star you can see yourself tonight, which is eerie. I mentioned some years ago that I could arrange(at no charge) for high resolution textures, stellar orientation, and so on for THG, as I am both an astronomical and maritime artist. Now that THG will be accepting free help, per their last livestream, I hope we can get Procyon off the berg, Leo overhead, and so on.
These are so GREAT, Matt. the details are incredible. love learning new facts about the ship with every video. you really bring life to the titanic. You dealt with the critism so well the other night. remember, for every person who criticizes the project, a hundred loyal supporters do not, and notice all the hard work all of you are putting forth.
Matt, I love how you bring the ship alive. Your passion and love for the Titanic is so evident. Thank you, and all the THG team, for your enduring work in telling this story.
3:06 - 3:11 Am I the only one who, upon hearing that, got the sound of Smethles from the game Titanic: Adventure Out of Time asking Carlson "A touch of the Mal Der Mer, was it?" stuck in my head? 😂
@@SlidTossedPissed I love how at one point both Smethels and the Purser get completely wrong ideas about Carlson and Penny meeting up - Smethels accusing them of plotting larceny, and the purser ... well,\*ahem\* "You know, we really don't condone that sort of thing, not on an English ship." 😂
I don't think they said that. They didn't want t cause panic. They probably said get your life belts on and get to he boat deck It took almost an hour to get the boats to launch so they didn't rush
It's weird hearing the account of people have this sort of sick feeling in their bodies. It's almost like that feeling is like trying to warn them of the calm before the storm.
@@Quasihamster After seeing what 2020 has to offer I'm not sure that the human race is going to be ready for what 2021 has to offer. Hopefully things get better, but crazy things already have happened so far so we don't know yet.
I'm so happy to see this project is still alive. This is more than just a very original gaming masterpiece, but pretty much the most comprehensive interactive encyclopedia on the Titanic's history. No matter how long this game takes to go out, I'll be there day one and enjoy the hell out of it.
@@pensil2818 they are doing an alpha release later this year with large portions of the ship then will make the rest available as it is finished. I suggest watching the Saturday livestream. Basically they came close to getting financing but it fell through so they changed course, shook up the team and are focusing on the ship itself as first priority.
She... is not a RUST Stain on the Ocean Floor. She stands proud, her BOW and the first half sit mostly up and forward facing. She peers into the Darkness.. as she always has at 12,500' below the North Atlantic. She.. also wont be a RUST Stain. She will always, and forever will be remembered.. in our vocabulary as a society. Why... cause she is the definition of grace and what can happen in a single night. Be respectful. Its been said.. a thousand times... those who dont learn from our mistakes.. are doomed to repeat it. Be respectful.
@@Truecrimeresearcher224 Its long been known that she is decaying... but thats due the life forms down there, eating away at the steel itself. She might go away in 40 - 50yrs. Time does move slowly.. 2.5mi down.
Yes! Brilliant as always. Thank you for your compassion, showing the pictures accompanying the stories, fabulous editing. I was drawn into that awe and wonderment. What was life aboard a luxury liner like? Nailed it! I always learn something too, which keeps me invested and happy overall!
I recently found out that Harold Bride lived in Beckenham (where I lived all my life) and that he gave a few speaches on the bandstand at the park witch is on the other side of the road. Every time I walk my dog my dog in the park I stop by his memorial (which is a painting of the titanic) and I remember him as well as the people in morials next to him (David Bowie (who lived in the town) and M. Auguste Eugine Gaudron & Dr Francis Alexander Barton (the latter two people flew the first British public air mail flight in a hot air ballon on the 9th august 1902)).
Am I the only person who really enjoys the Palm Courts on Titanic? I wish you would had mentioned that. They're like that one spot that I would never get bored of. Overall, I loved the video.
Always thought it was was weird to put the helmsman in a blind room, up until an old Navy salt told me it's a helmsman's job to steer the ordered course or rudder angle and no more, you don't need to see to do that. Bit of a lost art these days, steering a ship by hand all the time, once they're out at sea they switch on the autopilot. I wonder, during the day were the shutters opened?
Second class is one of the things I'm looking forward to most about Titanic: Honor & Glory. If I was a passenger, given my professional and social status, it's probably how I would've travelled and I will spend many happy hours exploring the second class areas of the ship!
It's still going. They explained their revised future plans in their recent livestream. It's going to be scaled back somewhat, particularly in terms of the story, but they're still aiming for a 100% explorable replica of the ship.
109 years ago tonight - my great grandfather's 'little brother', my great uncle (Oscar S. Woody) was a postal clerk onboard the Titanic's maiden voyage - the night of the disaster was his Birthday party - the other 4 postal clerks surprised him with a birthday cake they had arranged from the bakery to be prepared - they were of course finished with their duties that night and the birthday celebration was well underway when Titanic struck the iceberg - the lead postal clerk, John Smith, (we aren't sure if he was the 'post master') was immediately summoned to the bridge for an emergency officer briefing by Capt. Smith of the impending floundering of the ship - Mr. Smith returned to the party to find the mail room rapidly flooding and the other party attendees doing their best to save the mail - everyone in the mailroom eventually drowned - uncle Oscar's body and one of his coworkers body was recovered - none of the other postal clerks remains have ever been located.
Its been postulated that if Titanic had hit the iceberg head on as opposed to attempting to turn and miss it, the sinking might have been averted. By turning the ship, the iceberg hit her with a glancing blow, dislodging rivets on her side that we all know what led to. Such an amazing story that I'll never get tired of
Good point..similar to how a small piece of metal from a Continental Airlines plane could bring down the mighty Concorde in France some time ago..ripped thru the tire causing a blowout then causing the rupture of the fuel tank..avoidable yet monumental occurances that changed history
A handful of people travelling alone. Imagine trying to gather up your family. Very, very poor planning that all lifeboats weren't filled to capacity. Even so there weren't enough lifeboats. I can't imagine the terror. Land nowhere in sight.
At 2:20 am, April 15, 2021, it will be 109 years since The RMS Titanic sank. I also made a playlist for the Titanic. You'll should watch it. Try to watch the 1997 movie. The story will live on forever.
Guys, today I came across a letter written by Virginia Woolf in April 1912, briefly talking about Titanic. She says: " "it’s a fact that ships don’t sink at that depth, but remain poised half way down, and become perfectly flat. So that Mrs. Stead is now like a pancake, and her eyes like copper coins". Now, there are two inaccuracies in this, because I have gone after information and it seems like Mrs. Stead didn't die on board and also that the bodies trapped inside the ship wouldn't look like that. But I'm still wondering about the _poised half way down_ part. In the film, James Cameron included an animation of the wreck of the ship fully hitting the bottom of the ocean. But Virginia had gone to court hearings about the Titanic before she wrote this letter, and I believe it's where she heard that information.
edit: Didn't know that Tom was off the project until I saw the beginning of the other vid. But to be clear, like I said, I trust T:H&G implicitly when it comes to TITANIC. Businesses grow and change. TBH, the ones that don't do so, sink. (Ba dum tss *goes off to hunt down the Patreon*) How am I not subbed here? I've been around since Tom did that Phillips and Bride piece?! (Or wait that was probs on Tom's channel.) Sharing this to twitter now before I've even watched it. That's how much I still trust and believe in you all.
"Nothing to cause any alarm" for the lookouts - I don't think it's credible that the one huge iceberg came at them out of nowhere. Surely there must have been a lot of ice around the ship already? When morning came, the survivors saw so much ice around that the wonder was how any ship could miss hitting some. This is an aspect of the disaster that doesn't get much discussion.
No, the games artistic director will be hosting a stream on his Twitch (see the April 10 video for account details) and Tom is hosting a livestream with animation on his channel Part-time Explorer.
Hope the 1500 souls lost that April night 109 years ago may rest warmly at last. Bless them!
1496 souls, actually
I reckon there could have been at least four errors or stowaways. Also that the dogs had souls.
Doubt it, its below 0 as deep as she is
@@chasjetty8729 Doubtful, but yes, the dogs had souls, but we’re counting people
I recently also came by the thought that females aboard may not have declared pregnancy. Attaching soul status is still in the courts on that but I go by an aboriginal Australian logic that the fetuses get their souls around four to five months. I’m sure there where a few unknown souls around. Human souls.
I synced up a live time simulation and played it at the perfect timing, basically watching this tragic event unfold 109 years later
THG tradition
👊👊
Such a spooky experience
I did that years past but work got in the way this year.
Same 👍🏻
I was watching the movie, and it hit the iceberg right at 11:40!
Glad to see honor and Glory posting again since the 10th
Glad to see more TU lessons! Rest In Peace to the 1,496 lives lost. April 14th, 1912 will forever be a night to remember.
Once again I spent an entire Titanic University video hoping it wasn't going to end. I love Matts little videos that he makes
Thank you for this guys! The more I learn about the Titanic, the more I feel her legacy.
It is interesting that by sinking so prematurely in her carrer, we are destined to relive Titanic final hours forever! Her death granted inmortality.
Britannic sort of suffered a similar fate, too.
It was such a normal night, which is scary because it would be the last normal night that the ship’s passengers would get.
I really love this channel and what it does to honor the great ship. You guys really go above you beyond. Keep up the outstanding work!
109 years ago and still so sad it will be the same in another 109 years. Rest easy to all the lost souls. X

How can anyone click thumbs down for this?! It's brilliant. Thanks for the video!
@Hello There If only people held their politicians to the same standards as they hold game developers of games they haven't even paid for yet.

Love how you incorporated clips from the various Titanic films and real photos with your narration👍
Everything explained in this video is so interesting. So much research done. Thanks so much!
Are y’all not doing the live stream of the sinking tonight? :-(

Well done once again THG!

A little hello from Brazil
despite it being a grave site the relics from this ship should be lifted so that all can appreciate its history
FINALY, YOU MADE ANOTHER VIDEO ON TITANICHG
Surely you could do a livestream of the actual sinking? Love your soothing voice Matt.

Wow Awesome video. I can't believe it 109 years since that ill-fated night. Is there going to be a live stream tonight.

Hope to give details of both first and second classes areas soon.
Or details about passengers getting the board on the lifeboats.
A sense of calm, mingling with that ever present and growing feeling of dread.

What ever happened to the video about Titanic Music???
Why doesn't someone make a movie with these elements in this.
I'm pretty sure A Night to Remember did. Just not with background music or soothing narrator voice
“Take her to the bottom of the sea, Mr. Murdoch”🌊
go stand in the corner
“Starboard 15, all ahead full!”
It is so sad to think about how they all should have been warm in their beds that night, but 1500 ended up dying in a horrifying way.
WOW! AMAZING!!
I LOVE THIS GAME !!!
I want to listen to morse code
It's so scary about what just a single iceberg can do to a beautiful ship
I mean..That's like saying how a tiny nail can stop a car or a single missing bolt can crash a plane. It's still mind boggling to some degree tho
Its been postulated that if Titanic had hit the iceberg head on as opposed to attempting to turn and miss it, the sinking might have been averted.
