Amazed this was recorded and I just found it 6 yrs later of my daughter Olivia asking the first question. Uber proud mummy. She’s 12 now and she can’t believe she did it 😊 incredible man! Brilliant event and experience 💙
Thats so awesome!!!!!
@@happyjmc I’m so thrilled I can’t even tell you. I feel complete now you’ve seen the evidence lol
Respect to the little girl. Hope she becomes an adventurer. Dr Ballard is a brilliant Scientist.
Your daughter is brilliant! Glad to see we have people like her in our future! My daughter is 1.5 years old now I hope she is just as curious as yours
What question?
My husband and I were there that night- dr Ballard showed himself to knowledgeable, passionate about his subject matter, funny and extremely engaging! One of the best evenings we've had and that is some endorsement from my poor hubby who I drag all over the world for history battlefields and lectures!
Karen Lee here here I agree a well spoken man and extremely educated man Dr Robert Ballard
Would of been a wonderful night... have you been to any Titanic artifact exhibitions?
I could listen to this man talk forever...
I just watched one of the greatest explorers of our time calmly, and nicely explain how rust works to a little kid. My heart 😭
This man is an absolute legend, an incredible oceanographer with amazing talent!!
he is in another level ,
deepest respect bob
Memorable night indeed.My Father was an Aberdonian and he was just soooo happy like we were for him although we all stayed in Glasgow and the fact we were Rangers supporters,but we were all behind our fathers team and celebrated with such joy.
Fantastic Team and not forgetting they were the best team in Europe after beating FC Hamburg for the Super Cup🏴
Believe it or not ,I have heard of Dr Robert Ballard from the movie "bridge to Terabithia " in a scene
when the teacher at the class asked the students to watch a program(it talks about Dr Robert Ballard and his discoveries under the sea) on channel 4 and write an assignment on what they've learned from the program .
awesome, would love to meet this man and listen to him speak
Is and will always be my greatest inspiring ocean explorer!
I'm located within miles of his headquarters in rhode island! What a class act...
This man is my hero
Seriously?
I like how he totally ignored the Switch theory question 😆 barely talked about
i no whar a disgusting reptillian u can see in his face how incomfortable he is talking about the truth

Hey Boss,, sorry to wake you, but you may want to see this.
We came across some boiler ends that fit with Titanic’s.
Be so cool to see Amelia’s Lockheed again.
Bloody hell didn’t know that ismay was buried where my family are from
Interesting.
What was the name of the castle Ismay died in? I can’t make out what Ballard is saying?
Ballinahinch castle connemara, Co. Galway
Nigel Murphy thank you.
It's "easy" to check witch ship is in the bottom of the Atlantic, Titanic had 3 blade propeller on the turbine axel and Olympic had 4 blade, end of discussion. But they really searched a good spot to sink that ship, make it harder to investigate.
Funny because with the new 3d scans that were just released and you can actually read the inscription 401 on the propeller which was specific to the Titanic. So it's settled that it is in fact the Titanic
@@scubasteve9715 Like i say befor, how many blade has the center turbine propeler? There you have the final talks about this BS.
what was the 2nd question?
He's still obsessing on cleaning and painting the damn sunkin ship.
He couldn't remember his daughter's date of birth and had to ask her?
To this day, the Titanic’s swimming pool is still holding water. Has that been reported in the Guinness World Book
Without doubt the worst joke in history ! Go and fuck off !!
Stupidest and most illogical joke
Icebergs can’t melt steel beams 😂😂
Bro stop. Not funny
NO!
Bruce Ismay could HAVE done something! He could have ran around as fast as possible to find others, ANY OTHERS, to tell them the last life boat was being lowered. He could of yelled, “FOLLOW ME, LAST LIFE BOAT IS BEING LOWERED!” and with that help to fill the boat he took. Yes, he could have done something besides save himself. So no, he’s not innocent of being a coward. And as such should be branded as one!
Dr Ballard sounds and looks so weird to me when he has been asked for his thoughts about the durable switching conspiracy. Loosing his temper, he talks about Cpt. Smith's responsibilities then he moves immediately on a another subject as lifeboats and so on but not answering the simple question. How is it possible that he hasn't done a video to avoid this kind of question or having already an answer and high definition pictures to prove that it is stupid to think, no matter how, it could be the RMS Olympic at the bottom of the Ocean. With hundreds hours of video (with Cameron's and Nargeolet's videos) that would be easy. What do you think?
He didn't lose his temper. He treated the "theory" with the contempt it deserves.
alexbtps1 boy the doctor sure got weird when I asked the question about the Olympic or the Titanic
ilikethisnamebetter he should just show some real good pictures of where the names go and the controversy would end unless he really is covering up the scam if it is 1 at all
You call that losing his temper? Please. It's called a respected scientist/oceanographer being dismissive of goofball conspiracy bullshit because it's goofball conspiracy bullshit.
lincolnlobster if you really look into this story really look into it from the Californian all the way on you're going to find out it is kind of about the story very fishy

I just saw an offspring of Bruce Ismay being interviewed about the Titanic. It took place about 8 years ago (2015?). He was maybe in his 70's+. He was rather arrogant in that he kept making references about how there was/is so much misinformation about the ship. I don't respect him at all. How about the lack of life boats for starters! The "mis-design" of air-tight compartments...none were airtight because they didn't have a roof! Hello! How about the treatment of the third class! This Ismay guy refers toTitanic's demise as an "act of God". Yikes. Totally delusional.
Very sad ending for titanic but still stayed afloat to safe her passengets ,but decision to drop the lifeboats was delayed n cost the extra lost of lifes😪👇
😊
😊😊
Easy to forget he was actually asleep when the wreck was discovered... zzzzzzzzzzz
He was asleep when they started finding debris. Of course they went and woke him up before they actually went over it.
In his cabin, but not asleep. When they started seeing wreckage someone went to get him and he ran to the video room. Walked in just as they spotted the boiler and confirmed they were looking at titanic.
Well technically he wasn't asleep. He was trying unsuccessfully to get some sleep and wasn't in the control room when they first saw debris.
He was on the bridge when they found the bow of the Titanic, so he got there in the nick of time.
He was reading. However, I can understand why you would expect him to be away for at least two weeks. What a genius you are. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Bob sure deflected the ship switch question with a bunch of iceberg warning nonsense.
For a pioneer, he sure is a shill.
Perhaps he is tired of hearing the conspiracy theorists.
Yes , pretty soon the"Titanic never happened" folks will chime in , or actually JFK was the captain... or the moon was the sun that night...
I was there that day,Ballard was right to dismiss it and carry on informing us on more important things about the ship,the groans when that fool asked that question,he was part of a Facebook group on Titanic peddling his bullshit and the entire thing was completely debunked and he left that group after,yard number 401 was found on the Titanic,end of conspiracy theory !
It’s easy to tell them apart. The Olympic had open decks on the foreword promenade and the titanic has the forward promenade decks enclosed with cafe Parisian
Troll
I hate how he rambles...
Whatever dude.
I believe Olympic Is titanic if not they wouldn't got the money plus the Olympic is grey undercoat the Titanic wasn't plus the m and p on the back of the ship
michael hembree well if anyone should know the doctor should know what ship it is he admitted to taking over 5,000 pictures he has to know what shape it is bogus
michael hembree if you really look into the story it just smells really bad as real fishy from the Californian on
It's the Titanic. They found the yard Number 401 on the Propellers, on the boilers, on the engines.
Propellers between Titanic and Olympic weren't switched. That a lie by Gardener. Only a propeller shaft from Titanic was used for the Olympic.
Both ships weren't identical. In fact, in Details the ships were very different. A switch was technical and logistical impossible.
Every switch theory is debunked. No proof.
@@honda900000Totally correct, and in the last decade or so letters on the bow like T, I, A, and C were found on the bow as well. Note: You can see the footage on You Tube.
