I was seven when it was announced the Titanic had been found. I remember my Papa rushing through the front door long before he was due home from work. He was breathless. He told my Nana, "They found her!," and he sat in a chair in the dining room and cried. I didn't even know or understand who 'she' was. My Nana did... They both cried and held hands. Turns out Papa lost his Grandmother on that ship. She was on her way to come live in America with his family. He hadn't seen her in years. He was so excited as a boy that she was coming. And then she was lost to the sea. He obsessed over every photograph ever released of the watery remains until his death.
One of the biggest unsung heroes of the accident was Thomas Andrews, the Harland and Wolff architect from Belfast who designed the Titanic. Not only was he onboard the ship when the iceberg was struck, but he knew that his "unsinkable" ship was doomed from that moment on. With no thought of self preservation, he went around the ship looking for as many people as could to evacuate Titanic before the ship slipped beneath the waves. As a result, because of his actions, he in effect, sacrificed himself to try to save others
The reason the design failed was because the architects kept on getting overruled on safety matters - the more lifeboats, the uglier it looks from the outside, the higher the hull's internal walls that would have prevented water buildup and caused it to sink, the more expensive it would've been. What a tragedy.

One remembers the story of the cat named Jenny who was originally the ship's cat on the RMS Olympic. When her crew was transferred to the RMS Titanic, she went along. She "berthed" and "birthed" in a box under the refrigerator in the galley. At her last port before heading across the Atlantic, a stoker onshore observed her carrying her kits from the Titanic offshore to safety, thus the stoker signed on with another ship, saving his life, as Jenny had saved her kits' lives. Moral: Always trust your cat.
Did you know there was a bakery chef that had consumed so much alcohol that he survived swimming in the ocean that night and did not freeze to death? The alcohol in his bloodstream had prevented the blood from freezing. His name was Charles Joughin.
He's shown in a couple of the movies. In Cameron's, he and Rose exchange looks just moments before the ship sank. In A Night to Remember, he is shown working to help abandon ship and occasionally going down to his room to drink. As for the sinking, supposedly in an interview he said it was like going down in a lift. Claimed he didn't even get his hair wet.
In the early 60’s my great grandmother gave me great detail of what happened that late night/early morning. And when I saw the movie, every scene was SPOT ON!!!!
@@sarah2930 I'm a Titanic lover myself and people all over the internet kept saying things like "no it was delayed!" "no it was cancelled!" or "no it never even existed!" so I didn't even know which statement was right.
The reason it was ordered women and children first was not derogatory against men but out of respect for women and their capability to give life, as the death rate for children at that time was much higher than today which is why couples had large families too.
My understanding was that in earlier boat sinkings of the time, it was everyone for themselves. As a result, women and children were the least likely to survive because they were trampled and overpowered by men trying to get to the lifeboats first. The decision of women and children first was a way of making sure they would get to the lifeboats safely without being crushed to death. The mistake made by many officers manning the lifeboats was misinterpreting the order as "women and children ONLY."
jojopuppyfish no buddy they have large family’s because they needed them to work. Not like today where people have kids simply for fun. But from about the 60s and below people had kids cause they needed them to work on the farm
Sherri Ianiro I agree but also back in those days being a single mom was almost unheard of and women couldn’t really take care of themselves financially so making their husbands stay behind was creating an ill fate for the mother and children anyway, they should’ve just allowed the husbands to go with their families. Single men could’ve stayed, but I find it so cruel that families were torn apart
I think the stuff in the museum was things that were floating in the water on the surface when the Carpathia came and rescued those in life boats. Ballard meant they vowed to never take anything that was within or on the titanic
It is "sad" that a single wealthy man died above women and children? No that's the honorable thing to do. His life is no more valuable than another man's life.
Titanic: in the ocean crossing between the English Isles and New York City, yeah, it's in April. So what? God: Alright, just be on the lookout for icebergs!
My great grandma was supposed to come over on the titanic from Ireland but her brother was drinking in an Irish pub and made them late. It’s a true story. 😜 They ended up coming to America later which is good because otherwise if they had not missed the boat I might not be here.
The only lesson from Titanic you really need to learn is Murphy's Law. Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Arrogance is not a very good survival trait.
To so brazenly say that the ship was unsinkable & only having enough lifeboats for half the passengers on board was basically like thumbing your nose at God.
Worst part of a Night to Remember is the passenger list in the back. By the time you read the Third Class passenger list almost every name is in italics (italics denoting the death of a passenger).
@@nicotoscani8270 when the designer of the ship Mr Andrews was asked by the press whether it was true the ship was unsinkable,he replied that"not even God can sink this ship" and the rest as you know is history
This is a very good video I had known of the original reasons but was amazed it was stumbled upon so easily. I understand the respect that is given for it.and it is as he said, but so much could be learned from the wreckage and all may never be known before it is too late
I think what most people forget is when the order of Women and Children first was given it wasn't anything sexiest about it, as some would have us believe. It was the mentality of the people of that time, especially the British. Not like today when the Captain after a accident is the first one off, even before a evacuation order is given. A strong belief in God and sense of duty and honor drove many of these men. Even when some men were offered a spot in the life boats they turned it down. Benjamin Guggenheim for example famously stated after helping his maid onto a life boat and helping other women and children to the life boat station "We've dressed up in our best and are prepared to go down like gentlemen."
There was but was only on Netflix for a short time Jack lived but was Frozen it was after Rose died looked pretty good but didn't get a chance to see it sadly its no longer on there don't believe
I met Dr. Ballard by chance in the airport in Vera Cruz Mexico in 1992. A heck of a nice guy, very friendly. Got his autograph, and have it taped inside my book he authored on finding the Bismarck!!
If you are talking about photos of the grand staircase there is no actual photo of it. Since the Titanic was modeled after a certain hotel as well as some other ships were the grand staircase from other ships were the same.
@@Laurentus89 The flat earth sank too? I don't understand your statement. And who signs the RUclips response "Jesus"? I guess we think a lot about ourselves, don't we?
Wow, just when you think you’ve seen the last of the Titanic videos! Don’t get me wrong, I love learning about Titanic, but there are a lot of videos on this, it’s overwhelming!
I remember that particular issue of NatGeo back in '85; my stepdad subscribed to it at the time. I remember reading the article and looking at the pictures, feeling awestruck. 😮
There's nothing more than loving the history of what this ship was granted, when she sailed in the early 1910s. The 1997 Blockbuster may have slightly changed it up a bit, as well as with Celine Dion becoming iconic with the movie itself (though the song might've been cheesy), but it still managed to leave a little history in it.
I was more looking forward to hearing more stories from the first discovery of the ship... And more into the feeling of how they went into the ship and what they found, maybe how spiritual was the experience?
I once read Ballard's biggest regret is allowing, whether his choice or not, the coordinates of the titanic to be made public. While he never wanted to take from the titanic, there have been hosts of others who have taken, and my understanding is there's nothing anyone can do about it. It's outside international and martine law, so if you can put the funds together to have men and equipment, you can explore it (take) all you can. This is why Ballard has not revealed the coordinates of all other subsequent finds he has made.
Balled stating other people spent 60 days trying to find the ship and he did it in 8,he looked in areas nobody else had looked so it made it much easier for him.
I think the titanic is a great example of someone getting to confident not that it's a bad thing to be confident but when your sailing people to another "world" it's better to be safe than sorry.
Why I have always respected Robert Ballard; knowing the most important feeling when finding the Titanic was respect, as it is a gravesite!! Disgusting that people have robbed the Titanic gravesite, and then profiting from it!
Very fascinating; there is another video attached to this one about the board of inquiry investigating the disaster. Excessive speed was all the verdict, no one was faulted business went on as usual.
The officer misinterpreted Captain Smith's order of Women and Children FIRST as Women and Children ONLY. This cost men their lives as the officer wouldn't men on the lifeboats. Also, many lifeboats were not filled to capacity. If all the lifeboats were filled to capacity, another 400 lives would have been saved
The officer who, for whatever reason, failed to give his succeeding lookout - one Frederick Fleet - the key to a small locker that contained a pair of binoculars cost an untold number of lives, regardless of gender and age .. that tiny little footnote - rarely mentioned - is in my opinion THE single most tragic part of the disaster
@@billkittleman9631 Even if they had the binoculars, it would have been difficult to spot the iceberg due to the weather conditions that night - clear and calm, so no waves pushing against the iceberg
So many issues were ignored by the British Government, the ship's crew and White Star Line that could have prevented the disaster. Not having enough lifeboats (What if the Ship ever caught fire?) and the ship's crew ignoring the seriousness of wireless warnings were certainly 2 of the greatest ones.
The first lifeboats were not filled to capacity because people did not want to get in them. They thought that a ship would rescue them before they sank. Only later on did they realize the extreme danger that they were in.
The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax, Nova Scotia, is said to hold the world's largest collection of Titanic artifacts, and that city has the most graves of Titanic victims.
Titanic is intriguing for so many reasons to so many different people, unsinkable and it sinks, luxury and poverty on the same ship...death destruction & survival.

He obsessed over every photograph ever released of the watery remains until his death.

Ruben Fuentes damn what’s your problem
The engineers that kept the power on till the end deserved to be remembered too bad there’s nothing left of them
There's a documentary on the engineers on RUclips called 'Saving Titanic'
So very true
One of the biggest unsung heroes of the accident was Thomas Andrews, the Harland and Wolff architect from Belfast who designed the Titanic. Not only was he onboard the ship when the iceberg was struck, but he knew that his "unsinkable" ship was doomed from that moment on. With no thought of self preservation, he went around the ship looking for as many people as could to evacuate Titanic before the ship slipped beneath the waves. As a result, because of his actions, he in effect, sacrificed himself to try to save others
Oh okay
SiVlog , indeed you are correct, Thomas Andrews was a hero in some way
The reason the design failed was because the architects kept on getting overruled on safety matters - the more lifeboats, the uglier it looks from the outside, the higher the hull's internal walls that would have prevented water buildup and caused it to sink, the more expensive it would've been. What a tragedy.
I think the engineers that stayed to keep the power on deserved to be remembered too
So he should have sacrificed himself to save others. He should have insisted to put enough lifeboats on the deck for everyone!

Thank you! That was my thought too. I've seen the documentaries and I'm convinced the "Titanic" is not the ship that sank.
Even funnier how easily people have been fooled by false information, into believing the ships were switched.
Titanic is the greatest love story of all time
Why I have always respected Robert Ballard; knowing the most important feeling when finding the Titanic was respect, as it is a gravesite!! Disgusting that people have robbed the Titanic gravesite, and then profiting from it!
Bob Ballard, 5:53 “made a promise to never take anything from that ship! And to treat it with great respect!”
That was an awesome movie !
Very fascinating; there is another video attached to this one about the board of inquiry investigating the disaster. Excessive speed was all the verdict, no one was faulted business went on as usual.
Thankyou. Godbless
The officer misinterpreted Captain Smith's order of Women and Children FIRST as Women and Children ONLY. This cost men their lives as the officer wouldn't men on the lifeboats. Also, many lifeboats were not filled to capacity. If all the lifeboats were filled to capacity, another 400 lives would have been saved
The officer who, for whatever reason, failed to give his succeeding lookout - one Frederick Fleet - the key to a small locker that contained a pair of binoculars cost an untold number of lives, regardless of gender and age .. that tiny little footnote - rarely mentioned - is in my opinion THE single most tragic part of the disaster
@@billkittleman9631 Even if they had the binoculars, it would have been difficult to spot the iceberg due to the weather conditions that night - clear and calm, so no waves pushing against the iceberg
Utter rubbish. Disagree? Source please for your nonsense.
So many issues were ignored by the British Government, the ship's crew and White Star Line that could have prevented the disaster. Not having enough lifeboats (What if the Ship ever caught fire?) and the ship's crew ignoring the seriousness of wireless warnings were certainly 2 of the greatest ones.
The first lifeboats were not filled to capacity because people did not want to get in them. They thought that a ship would rescue them before they sank. Only later on did they realize the extreme danger that they were in.
Just me or was Bob Ballard a hottie back in the day?
Fascinating stuff
Very Interesting, Thank you for the video.
Hope they have a section for the Addergoole 14 and all the other victims. They deserve to have their names remembered.
Does anyone know where the titanic is because I have been studying that for like twelve years when I was a kid by the way
This needs to be renamed, “Finding Titanic, The Untold Story”.
It needs to be renamed "Titanic - the same old pish we've heard before"
Branson Mo of all places has the BEST TITANIC MUSEUM EVER!
It's mystique has never grown old and tired, it's gotten greater and greater .. savor it now, the wreck does not have much time left 😢

This information has been out for years
Yet, you're still in the closet....
We know. Why is this a problem?
Lots of people go to Gettysburg with shovels. Searching for Minie Balls has been a hobby there since the war
Amazing to hear...thank you for sharing and giving more insight!
where is this museum
they said Washington DC in the video
National Geographic Museum, 1145 17th St NW, Washington, DC. CLOSES JAN. 1, 2019
www.nationalgeographic.org/dc/exhibitions/titanic-untold-story/
The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax, Nova Scotia, is said to hold the world's largest collection of Titanic artifacts, and that city has the most graves of Titanic victims.
Washington DC. Said so right in the beginning...
Being Pamela Musiimenta There is one in Washington D.C., Pigeon Forge, Tennessee and Branson, Missouri. Not sure where else.
I love the Titanic but feel that elements should be removed and preserved
Titanic is intriguing for so many reasons to so many different people, unsinkable and it sinks, luxury and poverty on the same ship...death destruction & survival.
Well done
Titanic is an all encompassing cautionary tale.
I've been to the titanic museum
Listen, there are no, none, zero untold stories of the Titanic.
