Hey, It's just as valid as the kooky theories where A) Titanic was swapped with Olympic in a complex insurance scam and Olympic was the ship that sank! B) All those rich people were sent on the ship ON PURPOSE to be killed so that JP Morgan could form the Federal Reserve without opposition! C) Titanic didn't sink because of an iceberg; it was a coal bunker fire that did it in OR a German u-boat that fired a torpedo to make an example of it 3 years before the Lusitania! D) If what happened wasn't good enough, fall back on good old anti-Semitism and blame the Jews or Freemasons! It's all a Rothschild plot! People aren't satisfied with the weird enough coincidences of the actual history. They want to insert their own biases, their prejudices, and racism to find someone to blame! This is a pretty sane group by comparison to what I read in the commentaries about most Titanic videos nowadays. It's only concerned with the floor patterns! It's okay to like linoleum or not like it. At least this is more like Monty Python than a tabloid newsrag! At least there are fewer Sunday quarterbacks commenting and complaining about things they don't understand the context of, people whose information about the Big T is solely from motion pictures and sensationalized documentaries...
Yes! Finally the flooring. The hotel that I work at still has its mosaic tile floors in the atrium and lobby from 1916 so I very much appreciate intact flooring.
Okay I have trouble focusing on the content after laughing at Tom opening with his back to the camera and turning around with that line and look on his face.
Linoleum was also used on the decks of smaller warships from the 1920s through the end of World War II...the Imperial Japanese Navy used it on the main decks of their cruisers and destroyers.
The idea of Linoleum in my grandma’s kitchen makes me like it a lot more! Grandma’s kitchen was rich and warm, and classy and inviting. None of those traits are to be found anywhere in a modern home. So Linoleum it is!
Dunno about the tiles, but I wouldn't mind having the bath rug with the big W.S.L. (for White Star Line) on it. Wonder why they didn't use OSNC (for Oceanic Steam Navigation Company) like on some of the china?
This is what we are talking about, well researched videos about the Titanic & Olympic class vessels. Titanic University/ Honor & Glory we give thanks. The research you guys have done is outstanding and I hope one day you write a book containing it all. This channel along with Honor & Glory give me hope, hope that those who make the Titanic top tens will learn a thing or two (or ten). Many a time when watching a Titanic video my heart would sink when any of the following would be mentioned:- speeding, coal fire, Blue Riband, fake funnel, lifeboats, locked gates and so on. Thank you for verified facts, they are in short supply when it comes to Titanic videos on this site.
This is an excellent video. I appreciate all the work it must have taken to find all those examples of tile patterns and edit all of them together. I can honestly say that I have never seen anyone else dissect the topic of the flooring on Titanic. And with all the information out there about everything Titanic, that is really saying something!
Linoleum tile was used extensively on all liners prior to the advent of stabilizers. Made it more sanitary Easier to clean up the vomit when Mal de Mare hit.
Will you guys cover what Britannic's interiors were supposed to look like in detail? I always loved some of the concepts. I can't wait for Patroness of the Sea!
Thank you for posting. It would seem that lino was much more extensive than I originally thought. Always nice to learn something new about my favourite ship.
That counter top groaner pun... I'M STEALING IT!!!!! As for the rest of the video, it was VERY Nice and insightful and Educational for me to say the least. Very good quality. Also that Minecraft gag was quite nice too!
Also what’s interesting is how some of these tile patterns stuck around for decades into the future from when Titanic was built as the cream and black checkerboard pattern tiles also remained quite popular from the end of the Second World War and didn’t really start to fall out of fashion and modern architecture until the mid to late 1990s! There were also a couple of diamond patterns that came back into popularity in modern architecture in the 1980s and early to mid 1990s so it’s still quite interesting of how sometimes designs like that can come back into fashion years or even decades into the future after their first peak of popularity! :)
There's a good chance it's actually vinyl sheeting printed to look like linoleum. Most kitchen flooring from the 50s onward switched to cheaper material.
I got some bathroom work done last week, and now I need to redo the tiling. I'd love to do Titanic replica tile everywhere, but it would be a bit excessive. But maybe one framed set for the wall. 😁
Absolutely fantastic. This is THE BEST Titanic RUclips channel by far!!! Off-topic, but I really don't like Titanic's rubber edges on the staircases. Olympic's gold ones looked so much better, even though they were oh so slippery haha
They are made out of plastic, not wise too use plastic as flooring :P It doesnt sound dumb, I would use them as flooring to if they were made out of stronger material, but it would get very expensive very fast to use them as flooring in any room of any size :P
@@AlexandruCarjan yes, I guess they are not made for that kind of use. I just thought it would be cool to make a Olympic class style staircase the next time we're renovating 😅
... we sawed this boat in half! Then we used Flex Paste to glue it back together. After a day on the open water, the inside is STILL completely dry! Now that's amazing! Thanks Flex Paste!
TU; I have a burning question! WHO was the ship spotted an hour after Titanic struck a berg? I heard it was a ship doing some illegal fishing which is why they didn’t stop. Do you know?
There is plenty of speculation. The official theory is that the ship seen by the Titanic during the sinking was The Californian. However there are theories that it was an illegal fishing boat, which was positioned in between The Californian and Titanic.
13:05 "And there you have it. All the pieces come together for a great lesson in design." Lol. Really, Matt? Tom already made floor tiling pun earlier. We don't need you doing it as well. ;D
wow! I must be in 1st class cause my room's walls are mint green with celtic cross pattern linoleum and my floors are pink with diamond pattern linoleum. our dining room and living room has a faux wood style linoleum. it burns my eyes!
Something I've always wondered about: how did meal times work on Titanic, or the ships of that period in general? I assume there were probably set hours for breakfast, then a break, then a lunch or mid-day meal, another break, and then dinner. I'm referring to the dining rooms, not the onboard restaurants or other public spaces where a steward might bring you something to eat. Were passengers assigned tables and eating times, for example? Did one always eat with the same table companions? And I expect the "rules" were somewhat different for each class, but I'm curious. Lawrence Beesley wrote about finding himself in the same lifeboat with one of his dinner companions, which gave me the impression that seating and times for meals in 2nd Class were assigned.
Out of curiosity, do you know which company supplied the tiles to Harland and Wolf? I'm curious because most of my family back then worked for a company called Nairn's in Kirkcaldy, Scotland. At that time (and until the 1960's) they were the biggest supplier of lino in the world. If H.&W. did buy from Nairn, my grandfather probably made some of the tiles!
How do the tiles feel? Are they hard, like a modern day tile - where a lady’s high heel shoe would make a clip clop sound - or do they feel like hard rubber?
Could you imagine being the designer who was responsible for determining what floor coverings went where? How would you decide what design went where and how much to spend on each space. Kinda like the pool gets a class b design with £1 23p per foot verse the 2nd class public toilet gets class d design with £1 etc. How do you tell Mr Andrews you spent 200% the funds you were supposed to on decking
