When I was 11 a small article appeared in our local paper concerning the Titanic and a Steward who had served on the ship at the time of the sinking. Shortly after this my class was told to do a project on any non fictional subject, needless to say I chose the Titanic even though there was little interest in general on the subject at the time. I managed to track down the Steward and after an exchange of letters I was invited to his home, I persueded my Dad to take me. He was a lovely man and quite well spoken, he told of how he was on the stern of the ship as the ship went down, how he survived in the sea until being picked up by a lifeboat and eventually transferred to another ship. I had more than enough information for my project. As my Dad and myself left his house he handed me some keys that he had in his pocket at the time of the sinking. As the years went by and I left school I joined the British Merchant Navy in which I served for many years. I'm in my mid 70's now but often think of that meeting that inspired me to go to sea.

The rockets Titanic fired were seen, but were thought to be Titanic letting off fireworks while partying. The rockets were different colours for different situations, this was apparently not fully understood by observing ships.
Distress flares in 1912 were white. Titanic carried 36 Socket Signals, recommended by the Board of Trade. These were white, because white flares could be seen at a greater distance, and they had explosive heads.
@@JaonaayJaonang2016 At the time Titanic sank, there was no reqyirement for coloured distress flares, which was why Titanic was supplied with 36 Board of Trade approved Socket Sihnals, which were white with explosive heads. White flares could be seen from a greater distance.
Interesting that you made no mention of the 1959 movie, "A Night to Remember," which actually was somewhat more historically accurate than 1997's "Titanic."
It was meant to sink. Astor, Guggenheim, & Strauss were on that ship. They would’ve never permitted the implementation of the federal reserve. The ship went down in 1912, the Fed Resv was established in 1913. 💡
There are over a hundred testimonies right after the sinking that testified the break up. There was no confusion about it. It was covered up until 1986.
The one crazy thing about the lifeboats on the Titanic. Conventional thought is that there were not enough lifeboats for everyone, which is true HOWEVER, two lifeboats were still left on the ship before she sank. Even if they had enough lifeboats, there wouldn't have been the time to launch them anyway. It's a shame they didn't fill up the first few though...
In addition, some say there were enough lifeboats for approximately all on board if the boats had been overloaded. This was an unanticipated option only because the sea was so calm that night that the boats might have stayed upright and afloat all night even when packed as tightly as possible with people standing up. The fear of the boats collapsing may have been completely wrong. The boats were said to have been very sturdy. And of course, there were 2,000+ life jackets on board that were worthless as life jackets in the cold water, and they could have been fastened together to make several large life rafts.
@chrisconnell8464 Those last two were not life boats, they we collapsables; lifeboats, collapsables, and rafts are distinct entities. Both were released by the time the boat sank; I believe one floated away and the other dropped upside down.
@Myriska-o5i All rescue craft were deployed by the time the ship was under water. They actually had the exact amount of time needed to deploy them all from the moment the Captain decided to fill the lifeboats. If there had been more lifeboats they would have gone down with the ship because there wasn’t time.
@@dominaevillae28 You're right on technicalities, but the point remains that more lifeboats, collapsable, rafts or other emergency vessels wouldn't have saved more lives. Collapsible "B" was not even "launched" properly and was upside down when it floated into the sea.
A little known fact is the following day another massive ship appeared on the horizon .. The olympic had also responded and had steamed at full speed to get there. Out of all the information i have read over 35-40 years of research ,i have only ever come across two articles which states this ..
A ship 23 miles away not helping while the Titanic took 2hrs to sink? Maybe Cameron should’ve put a part in the movie about what happened on that other ship.
@@dovetonsturdee7033 well yeah but there was no where near enough to get the engines spinning, let alone up to speed, compared to what it needed it was producing no steam
in 1912, it was not mandatory to have the wireless manned 24hrs. SS California had just gone off duty, and so would never receive Titanic's calls for help. Likewise the fireworks were the wrong colour. In 1912, distress rockets were red, but because Titanic was considered unsinkable, she did not carry any on her first crossing.
3:02 One such was Ida Straus. When she was offered a seat in a lifeboat she didn't climb into it she said she didn't want to leave her husband. Col Gracie who was around asked an officer if an exception could perhaps be made (Gracie and Isidor were friends) but Isidor Straus wouldn't leave the ship with so many women and children still on board. Ida then declared "I will not be separated from my husband" and then to Isidor "Where you go , I go. As we have lived so we will die: together." The couple then sat down on deckchairs under the stars surrounded by havoc and turmoil. That's real love.
I saw a video recently that explained why there're no skeleton's to be found. Apparently, the sea creatures ate the flesh & then the sea water itself (at that depth) consumed the calcium from the bones untill "nothing" was left. It's like the corpses just vanished. The only evidence that that they ever existed were their leather shoes. That's all that was left of them! Simply amazing how nature works. 😱 R.I.P.

Well one thing you got right Yes the Titanic did hit an iceberg and sank as a result of it. After that there is nothing of value worth paying attention to. As for the reason it sank I will tell you why . As you may not know. The ship main frame had 9 huge compartments with walls seperating them from each other but one fatal flaw. They did not go to the top of that room. This meant that as water filled one chamber it would rise and spill over to the next chamber and then fill the next chamber until finally the last chamber was full of water and the weight of water in the early chambers did in fact tilt the ship downwards and at that point the stress caused the ship to break into two pieces and down she went to the depths below. You should give this sort of thing up because you got no idea what to do for accuracy. this is for sure. scale of 1 to 10?? sorry for me it is below 1. You sink like the Titanic
2:03 So the bottom of the hull is damaged, but the water comes *down* the stairs? 3:22 The Titanic was never referred to as 'unsinkable' *before* she sank. The gender divide in survivors was far greater than the class divide. While a passenger in first class was more than twice as likely to survive as one from third class, a woman (regardless of class) was four times more likely to survive than a man. As a result, the survival rate of women from third class was almost twice that of men from first class.
4:00 Lifeboat #1 (capacity 40 people, occupancy 12) was the one lowered with the lowest occupancy rate, 30%. #6 (capacity 65, occupancy 22) was the one lowered with the most empty seats, 43. Of those 12 people in #1, only five were passengers, the other seven were all crew .
Probably the third class passengers that were "locked up" or locked out were the ones who didn't survive. Those on the lifeboats probably hadn't been locked out, I imagine.
There is no evidence of any third class survivors being 'locked up.' In fact, one actually complained that he was not allowed to go back below decks to collect warm clothing,
No kidding. But there are untold thousands of videos on RUclips that are plagued with inaccurate information. Nobody's going to delete the video. Sorry!
If the titanic hit head on, it possibly might of survived. Let me explain, The titanic had water compartments that could stay afloat if more than 4 were breached. If the titanic hit it head on, it might of breached less than 4.
The language differences was major factor for third class confusion. The crew was not familiar with the ship to be of any significant help to get them topside. The gates were not locked but installed due to American laws.
Jack and Rose were fooling around on deck, and distracting the lookouts. Frederick Fleet was watching the lovebirds, rather than watching out for icebergs. If they hadn't been there, Fleet would have seen the berg sooner, and the ship could have been turned away, avoiding a collision and the sinking. It was Jack's and Rose's faults that Titanic sank!
Interesting side note on the Titanic my my father's father who passed away 6 years before I was born him and his wife Teresa had tickets to go on the Titanic but sold them at the last minute it would have been in lower class so they would have died which would have been my father would have never been born
The reason the Californian didn’t respond was because they got the wrong crate and the crate they got was supposed to contain flares but the one they grabbed had fireworks
3 years ago (edited) My great grandad told me he got to see the titanic and from the beginning he was shouting "don't get on that ship" he repeatedly shouted this until he was kicked out of the cinemas.
Titanic wasn't steaming fast, conservation of coal was key as Titanic has taken on coal from a multitude of ships prior to departure. The ship did not stop for the night as they had to maintain a schedule.
2:41 First, and most obvious, was the use of her powerful radio to signal for help, reaching ships hundreds of miles away. Californian was deaf to these signals because her only wireless operator was asleep. He went to bed only minutes before Titanic struck the iceberg
2:56 And it wasn't lowered till ~1hr after the impact Further it could've been lowered with 65 people instead of only 28 which in turn means that those 28 were the only people to leave the sinking ship in 1hr #7 was also the boat that took William Thompson Sloper who was accused by the press of dressing as a woman which in fact he never did
i can see now this documentary lets out the most important fact that it seems the movies and documentries have hidden ie that there were other ships that should of came to titannic far sooner then carpathia
Harland & Wolff explicitly stated that the boats could be filled right up yet that night they all (or most of them) left less than full (and I hear that in truth was technically a fault of duty on part of Cpt Smith)
Distress flares in 1912 were white. Titanic carried 36 Socket Signals, recommended by the Board of Trade. These were white, because white flares could be seen at a greater distance, and they had explosive heads.
There was of course no Jack and Rose romance on the Titanic but there was as you probably know a Jack Thayer in 1st class (not 3rd) and then there was a Rhoda Mary “Rosa” Abbott (née Hunt) in 3rd class (not 1st). They both survived the sinking
i prefer the theory that it was actually the sister ship of the titanic, the Olympia that sunk that nite , interesting vid. that seems more than plausible. look it up here on u-tube if you're interested in what really might have went done that nite , besides the reported titanic....pun intended.
No, it was impossible for it to have been the Olympic that sunk that day as all of the furniture, boilers, turbines and everything else would have had the ship's number on it.
I want to point out the fact that the boilers stokers ( the guy's that shoveled the coals into the boilers) 138 got off the Titanic before it set sail for U.S.A ? They knew that there was a fire in the coal bunkers and they were scared they would sink with the Titanic ! Check it out for yourself.
"What Titanic Survivors Saw When Titanic Was Sinking" Well.... I'm guessing water. Like lots and lots and lots of water. As in a whole ocean of water. But.... that's just a guess, I could be wrong.
James Cameron, the director of Titanic, considered to be one of the world's most educated on Titanic. Who did over a dozen dives to the wreckage of Titanic for research of the film lied to us? 😂😂😂
When an unmovable object meets an unstoppable force, the iceberg always wins. Here we are, a 112 years later, coming with what's new, nothing but babblegaff.
Titanic and Bright Side huh? Guess it's time Sam loses a few more brain cells as he points out all the mistakes I'm sure Bright Side has made in this. lol
T he titanic was shooting white rockets not recognized as a distress!!!!!! Because they are the white star line. That's why the captain went down with the ship ,he did so many things that directly caused more loss of life in my opinion.

Harland & Wolff explicitly stated that the boats could be filled right up yet that night they all (or most of them) left less than full (and I hear that in truth was technically a fault of duty on part of Cpt Smith)
12:47pm? You mean 12:47am 🙄
bruh
@@Eljeirobloxgames ?
I guess we'll never know what really know what happened
The Titanic had white rockets not red
Red meant disaster
The Californian turned of the radio so 5hey didnt receive the message
Distress rockets were white at that time. Red rockets were not used for distress until after the SOLAS convention of 1948.
Distress flares in 1912 were white. Titanic carried 36 Socket Signals, recommended by the Board of Trade. These were white, because white flares could be seen at a greater distance, and they had explosive heads.
What was the captain doing???
Cpt Smith was just so aloof
Captain Smith did everything he could in his power to try and save the most lives on the ship
I think it has more to do with the location of the passengers
The lower the passengers were the more impact they'd feel
You lost me with the moon!!!
you realize Jack and Rose were fictional characters acting out a fictional love story.
Enjoy the movie.
There was of course no Jack and Rose romance on the Titanic but there was as you probably know a Jack Thayer in 1st class (not 3rd) and then there was a Rhoda Mary “Rosa” Abbott (née Hunt) in 3rd class (not 1st). They both survived the sinking
i prefer the theory that it was actually the sister ship of the titanic, the Olympia that sunk that nite , interesting vid. that seems more than plausible. look it up here on u-tube if you're interested in what really might have went done that nite , besides the reported titanic....pun intended.
It isn't a theory. It is a fantasy. Invented in the 1990s with not a single supporting fact.
No, it was impossible for it to have been the Olympic that sunk that day as all of the furniture, boilers, turbines and everything else would have had the ship's number on it.
What Survivors saw dont know but We saw everyone in movie In Close shot 😁
I want to point out the fact that the boilers stokers ( the guy's that shoveled the coals into the boilers) 138 got off the Titanic before it set sail for U.S.A ? They knew that there was a fire in the coal bunkers and they were scared they would sink with the Titanic ! Check it out for yourself.
The crew that brought Titanic to Southampton were the delivery crew, they were never going to America.
@@Dizzy19. But at least one passenger did get off, and he lived longer all of the 2200 or so who did not get off.
The Californian didn’t help because they thought the fireworks were for a party and they also turned off the radio
Well,I don’t remember anyone saying it was a documentary. Surely,there's liberties taken with all movies.
My grandmas mom was on the titanic and I have a necklace from the titanic too
Right, I'll tell Sam from Historic Travels that another monstrosity of a video has been uploaded by DimSide...
"What Titanic Survivors Saw When Titanic Was Sinking" Well.... I'm guessing water. Like lots and lots and lots of water. As in a whole ocean of water. But.... that's just a guess, I could be wrong.
Truth be told, I never believed the iceberg story.
Probably mixed up with double visioned ship airship hitting each other
How long it took for them to make the titanic just for it to break
Three hours
this gets so many things wrong, I just can’t.
It was common for a new ship to try and set a fast time when first crossing the Atlantic and so to add value onto future ticket sales.
my grandfather was on the CARPATHIA.
You should tell both Cunard and the Titanic Historical Society
James Cameron, the director of Titanic, considered to be one of the world's most educated on Titanic. Who did over a dozen dives to the wreckage of Titanic for research of the film lied to us? 😂😂😂
the sean where one of the officers shoots survivors in the water never happened he actually helped survivors in the water in to his life boat
4:47 😬
When an unmovable object meets an unstoppable force, the iceberg always wins. Here we are, a 112 years later, coming with what's new, nothing but babblegaff.
What happened to brightside the videos are obviously AI generated now 6 years ago they weren't AI generated
They were the entire time with the titanic videos
Laziness and cutting costs, like with everything...
Wow this was made 4 hours ago
Sisi Terang (Indonesian) is already almost 1.5 months ago.
when is hostoric travels gonna react to this video😎😎😎🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i do wonder what Sam from Historic travels would think of this video.. somehow i think his brain would even more explode..
Me and my group did the titanic in DRAMA
My only question way was the stairs the first thing to go 🤷
Titanic and Bright Side huh? Guess it's time Sam loses a few more brain cells as he points out all the mistakes I'm sure Bright Side has made in this. lol
Dude, I'm here for that aswell
and the famous most recent movie misleads even more
So exactly as we believed then
T he titanic was shooting white rockets not recognized as a distress!!!!!! Because they are the white star line. That's why the captain went down with the ship ,he did so many things that directly caused more loss of life in my opinion.
Distress flares in 1912 were white. Titanic carried 36 Socket Signals, recommended by the Board of Trade. These were white, because white flares could be seen at a greater distance, and they had explosive heads.
I agree "Everybody knows what rockets at sea mean" (Lawrence Beesley)
If they had hit the iceberg head on instead of trying to avoid it, it wouldn’t have sunk.
I think so too she might've still been able to limp into New York Harbor
They did
Wow, a Brightside Titanic video that isn't quite as brimful of nonsense and inaccuracies as usual (Sam from Historic Travels will be disappointed😂 )... Although the image showing the ship sliced in half from stem to stern, what was that???
AI
Yeah, I have never heard of that before.
Gosh dangit! You beat me to this comment! What will it be part 9 or 10? Nothing like watching Sam's brain cells falling out!😂
Also why is the look out on deck and not in the birds nest?
@@lisalennox7835yep at least it's a short one so he should get through it in 30 minutes or less 😂
No they never
Ap, if the Titanic had hit the iceberg head on, it's unlikely that it would have sunk.
She might've still been able to limp into New York Harbor
@@fmyoung halifax nova scota canader would have been closer
@@garethmatthews7939 Nova Scotia Yes I guess @garethmatthews7939 Halifax would've indeed been closer but the Titanic was going to New York so that's what I thought of. If she had to limp though then Halifax would've probably been a better option
SS California didn’t help because all the people were asleep
The Olympic was Found in 1980. I found it for Robert .
Chinese whispers pass it on
So all I gotta do is 😂😂
