A Transverse Section of the Titanic: the lost amidships area
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Having looked at the aft grand staircase in a previous video, here we expand our rudimentary model down to the reciprcating engine-room and forward as far as the third funnel. This part of the RMS Titanic constitutes the 'lost' section of the ship - 'lost' as it is not a part of the bow or stern sections of the wreck. In this video, we tour the area.

Just an interesting note. The five double-ended boilers visible in your model from Boiler Room 2 are actually still in place, mostly intact in the aft most part right at the break up point of the Bow Section. They're visible, but they are difficult to see since the decks above collapsed on impact with the seafloor and now rest on top of them at a roughly 45 degree angle, leaving jagged pieces of steel, broken steam pipes, and other debris hanging precariously over them, which turn makes getting close enough to video record and photograph them very dangerous.
It was their being found in place that helped to put to rest a long-standing myth about the final moments of Titanic's sinking that the ship's angle down caused the boilers to break off their mountings, and smash through the hull. The fact that no boilers other than the singled-ended ones from Boiler Room 1 have ever been seen in the debris field was the other big nail in the myth's coffin.
I'm a lifelong Titaniac and a professional public historian with more than a decade of curatorial and exhibition experience (including a stint as a collections manager with RMS Titanic, Inc working to research, catalog, and preserve material raised from the wreck site). I lead with that because I know the Titanic community fairly well and, while I am certain that there are some that won't hesitate to abrasively point out engineering or decorative details that you missed, I want you to hear from someone who knows what he's talking about that this video is just wonderful. You've clearly and succinctly laid out an ill-represented but extraordinarily crucial area of the ship with remarkable accuracy and interpretation. I hope this praise lands on receptive ears, and that you will continue to make these beautiful microcosmic explorations of maritime engineering.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And of course, the uploader hasn’t seen this great comment. :/
And yet you cant spell “Titanic” 😅
@@Lone_wolf150i think ‘titaniac’ is supposed to be a contraction of ‘titanic maniac’
Good job on the animation, but there are lots of cuts in video, I'm trying to focus on what you're saying and study the cutaways, just in time for the video to fade to black and go to another screen. Please consider slowing down your future ones, thanks!
I can definitely kind of see what Abrams was going for in the 2009 film. The engine rooms were giant industrial caverns in ships like these, and they served as a stark contrast from the plush comfortable crew areas. But... the warp core doesn't have any giant reciprocating mechanical aspects. So they just filled the space with a few dozen warp cores...
But yeah, I am repeatedly struck by how much that engine room dominates the rest of the Titanic. You obviously had some idea of it from side-on diagrams, such as the kind used by the engineers when designing the ship. But seeing how some of the 2nd and 3rd class crew zones weave in and out of it... really drives the sense of scale home.
In corresponding to a well-known TITANIC Historian of some fame a few months back, I was told that, as of then, virtually all of the TITANIC (including this area) has been accounted for and documented. This historian was unable to disclose any further information due to an existing NDA, But, he is well-known for his expertise and has been involved with a number of TITANIC wreck expeditions. I was told as well that, once completed and documented, at a future date, all the details would be revealed.
Love your content!
Hilarious notice.
Love how neatly the funnel pathway is incorporated into the design of the decks
I just realized how there is no double hull between boilers and sea. Having seawater suddenly flooding hot boiler is one of the most dangerous event possible often leading to huge explosion and shockwave😅
A design rectified on her sister Britannic 😅
Brilliant!
You really sank a lot of time into this model, huh?
😑
Uh…Too soon. 🫢
@@glennac too soon? It happened 112 years ago
@@crazy4gta1 And thus the point of the joke. Woosh! 😄

Great job! I would love to see more especially a breakdown of how this section might have broken apart. Also, the soundtrack is very reminiscent of Adventure Out of Time which I really love. Keep up the great content!
Nicely done
*I like how I was given the option to dislike the video, but rest assured I have not*
I wonder what Clive Palmer will do with all of that space in his Titanic II's hull, without coal and steam.
ANOTHER well-done and truthful video on the TITANIC. Much praise to you, Sir.
This is the second video of tours I've watched. The audio is still muddy, but at least the captions work on this one. The content is great. But the poor audio is annoying.
Curious on the Cycles Cam shots - it looks like a high sample count with no denoising. Any particular reason you're doing it that way? I've been doing some renders on potato hardware (in fact I'm rendering out a 4k wallpaper right now that'll take me awhile. Like, estimated 222 hours and rising) so I'm always curious as to the rationale behind the decisions others with low spec hardware make to help improve my own render times without sacrificing too much quality.
I'm obviously not the video creator but a partner of mine has an interesting hack - though it apparently doesn't work on v3 or later Blender - where she gets absolutely zero noise from only one sample count. If she goes up to two samples, it's a noisy image with dark sections... but just one gets a perfectly clear and sharp result.
The only downside/tradeoff is you don't get more advanced lighting features, such as overspill/diffraction or subsurface scattering. So for super atmospheric lighting or photorealism in subtle details, that's not a solution.
But for seeing high levels of details in models without lighting distracting, or going for an earlier CG aesthetic, it works great. Faster than Eevee, for her. And it's not like how 90s CG often had no lighting at all (pre-baking it all in textures), as there are still some effects from the lights in the scene and the shadows they cast. They're just simpler than you'd get from 100s or 1000s of samples.
Food for thought. Several of the largest open spaces aside from cargo spaces, are located in this section of the ship.
Would be awesome if this developed into a sort of open source Demo401
Meu amigo que video fantastico esse seu, muito preciso nessa seção intermediaria, pouquissimos videos no yt falam dessa parte, mas, respondendo sua pergunta, ha sim uma foto dos cilindros que foram arrancados do motor, eu pesquiso ''titanic engine cylinder wreck'' e uma das primeiras fotos que aparecem é da enciclopedia titanica que mostra um desses cilindros
great vid you are very versatile💯👍
Love your videos! Great work!❤️🥰🥰😎🇨🇦
Good job thanks for the upload 👍🇺🇸
Love to see more Titanic.
Kid: Mom, can we have Titanic?
Mom: We already have Titanic at home.
Titanic at home:
A great video!
This is just wonderful! Congratulations and thanks!
Beautiful video.
very nice
