April 23, 2022 - Hi folks. RUclips added automatic chapters to this video and the timings were inaccurate relative to the pictures. I have fixed this as well as added a significant amount of information to some of the photos. Enjoy!
These chapters are in relation to the timestamps that you put in the description, it's how it does for every video on here. I swear at least one of these is from James Cameron's 1997 movie. A
My grandfather had a ticket to the Titanic, 3rd class. At last minute exchanged it for another ship that left 10 days later. Ship sailed through Titanic's debris field that floated south and east. He told me it was mostly deck chairs, empty life vests. He died in 1973 at age 88.
You're so right about the rabbit hole. I end up there every April myself. I was present at a disaster in England called the Hillsborough disaster, where 97 football fans were crushed to death. It seems that 15th April is a pivotal date. Titanic struck the berg on 14th April, but sank on 15th April. The Hillsborough stadium disaster took place on the same date and it happens to be the same date that Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. Notre Dame fire; San Francisco earthquake. April 15th is not a date to book a flight!
I find this fascinating because of the fact that Titanic’s wreck is deep below the surface of the ocean. Also because it is pitch black down there, it makes these photos pretty eerie.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing! I don't usually think about it being pitch black, but this time I did and it creeped me out. Would hate for that to be my resting place - it is for many.
It is crazy to think, these artifacts, dishes, and pieces of the Titanic have literally been untouched for 110 years, they’ve been in the same place since the morning the Titanic hit the bottom of the ocean 110 years ago.
I was fortunate to see the first photos of the Titanic after Bob Ballard came back from the expedition. As an employee of Sub Sea Systems, Escondido, CA, we were automatic members of the San Diego Chapter of the Marine Technology Society. We were treated to a slide presentation one night, before any photos had been released to the public.
This massive shipwreck of the Titanic has mesmerized me for so many years! The haunting images give me such a feeling, but I can picture it on it's voyage and how beautiful it had to be!!💫💫✨✨

@@collectorofcats294 Thank you. Ultimately I would like so that people of all levels of knowledge can gain something from my videos, experts and amateurs alike.
I have say for all the past interviews i have seen from all the previous expedition dives outlining just how rapid the deterioration of Titanic was.....it's actually in very good condition given the fact it's been down there for 109 (at the time of this footage) now 110 years with the immense pressure of the seabed and the currents..I mean the Bow still maintains that legendary shape that is recognizable instantly.
Thank you so much for the descriptive captions. Most of the time in these type of videos I have no idea what I’m looking at. It was very nice to understand what I was seeing here. 👍🏼
What’s interesting to me is the fact that after 110 years, those dishes are still in pretty good condition. It is a shame to see such a beautiful ship in such a state, but it comes with time. 110 years under the ocean will do that! Thanks for sharing these awesome photos!
@@nobshistoryengineering4421 Saw them at a Titanic exhibition in Budapest, Hungary. Arranged as they were found at the bottom of the ocean. First and third class corridor and cabins were also reconstructed. Walking through that first class corridor with music playing familiar from Cameron's film, and what the orchestra actually played on the ship I pretty strongly felt I was right there, on that very ship. There was also a washstand from a first class cabin, and it just hit pretty hard that this very washstand was used by a passenger on Titanic.
They need to bring up more pieces of the Titanic before it's all gone. Some will protest that it's a grave and should be left untouched. I say it's part of history and must be preserved.
So glad we found this beautiful ship. So sad everyone on board was excited about the maiden voyage and it ended with alot of their lives. I can't imagine the horror and disbelief. The dishes all in a row really got to me. They fell there and have stayed in position for a very long time. Also, the bath tub makes it all so real. This would be the Captain's last voyage before he retired. And he went down with the ship. Amazing also how the men played and played with all the shouting and running trying to keep everyone calm with their music. Thank you for this video. Titanic will always fascinate for many years to come. 🛳️
Such a beautiful yet sad time capsule that lies on the ocean floor...... I've always been fascinated with Titanic since I can remember.....RIP Titanic and to those who didn't make it!
Dr. Ballard made a comment roughly within the last decade or so stating he was more surprised by the human damage. He went further to say that the wreck itself was in decent condition.. and that spots where the subs land and the trash they dump being more of a problem than the deterioration of the ship itself. Granted I belive he made these comments before the latest expeditions showing the collapse of captain smith's room and what not.. I'd be interested to hear if his opinion has changed any? Either way its sad to see her go IMO..
I have no doubt human-related damage is contributing to the decay. Dr. Ballard is still active in oceanic expeditions so I'm sure he still pays attention to Titanic even if he isn't visiting it personally.
the thing is that ballrd is aparanoid idiot . It takes a very long time fora ship to start its decay as it take a lo9ng time for the paint to come off but once the paint start peeling of then the rust activates really fast . Ever found a really old piece metal on a river bed ? some that are found date over a hundred years and when you rubb the goowy stuff off of it you can still find paint that hasn't peeled off yet and strop that paint and you will unveil the steel as it was when it ended up there but where there is no more paint the steel is eroded deep and sometime all the way thru . thats what is happenning to the titanic right now as there is hardly anymore paint left
Well, for being in eternal darkness for over a century, I'd say she's shipshape and Bristol fashion! At least the forward 2/3, for one reason: her forward hull was flooded when it broke. The aft third of the ship was destroyed by compressed air, was almost unrecognizeable, blown apart from the inside as compressed gases overwhelmed 19th-century technology.
It would be cool, if photos from the ship before it sank, could be found to match with these “after” photos. Seeing them side by side would be awesome.
I remember as a kid going to the science center in Ontario to watch what was called "The Jason project" (small deepwater camera) on its first trip to show us video of the titanic.It was quite amazing. I now live in St. John's Newfoundland and the Atlantic ocean is not a forgiving one. Ice cold all year round. The hottest day you still couldnt handle standing in most waters for more than a few minutes. And the sunburn you can get if you dont wipe the salty water off before lying in the sun to warm up is brutal. I never burned before moving here. But it is also beautiful. The humpback whales ,the marine life. Things you find from years ago,shells,rocks,jewellery. Its natural for this to corrode and eventually just fade into the sand of the ocean bottom.
I can understand how the water near Newfoundland never really gets warm, even in the summer months, there are usually plenty of icebergs not too far away.. I'm sure its still quite nice up there though, I have some extended family in Nova Scotia.
Beautiful yet very haunting. It's hard to figure out what's what in the new ones. Poor old girl. Titanic was a really beautiful ship. Loved your video. I'm a big Titanic nerd. Hi from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦.
Yeah I wish I could do a better job identifying exactly what I'm looking at when I see wreck photos or video, sometimes its easy othertimes... not so much.
A lot (most) of the unlabeled images are from the stern section, which is massively destroyed and basically unrecognizable as a portion of a ship. I identified one as the one remaining cargo crane on the stern, and the one with the 3 "boxes" as right on the very aft end
I have been fascinated with the story of the Titanic ever since I saw the black/white movie with Barbara Stanwyck. To see the actual wreckage is surreal. All the pictures are fantastic to see but haunting.
@@calumbutter8959 my great grandfather went down with his armed merchant ship in the English Channel. He was a Boatswain on The SS Borg, which was torpedoed by a German U Boat and went down 20 miles SW by S at Lizard Point in 1918. The wreck is considered a war grave. Personally, I would love to see pictures of his grave site.
@@1961-v9k I kinda think we are starting an argument that doesn't deserve to be. Mangled English, sorry. Lazy. First, thanks for your family's sacrifice. I looked at the area you mentioned on an old style map. Scary, horrible way to die. We love the Titanic, yeah? Of course we do. That one fact puts you in the top 1% of my fav peeps.
@@calumbutter8959 oh no I was just thinking you are more respectful than me by wanting to let things like this lie. Me, I’m too nosey, but to be honest I would probs get too upset if I did one day see the wreck so best leave well alone. Incidentally, there is a memorial at Tower Hill (of which my grand father’s name is on) listing the names of hundreds of merchant seamen who went down with their ships. Thank you for the kind words.
@@1961-v9k let me be 100% crystal friggin clear. We should pull up every single thing that sank there. Before it's gone. Theres a boy, a hundred years from now, that's going to be taken by the story of RMS T. Whobthebheckbam I to deny him /her/they artifacts from the event? Obviously rhetorical question so don't answer. I remember the day the news broke about finding the Titanic. I was about 16yo and well on my way to supergeek status. I was so disappointed that I have not the words to express my feelings. Online thesaurus be damned. At that time we didn't know what really happened at that depth. My dumb young brain thought it would all be perfectly preserved because there is no light or oxygen at that depth. What I got was a rotten corpse. I know it's RMS but I'll never let myself get over that initial reflex. A defo right of passage of sorts.
I wonder what she'll be like 50 years from now, if she's still around by then. I hope that I can one day go down to her and visit her, as a history buff, I believe it'd be amazing to see
I tried not to get emotional but without me crying I had some tears coming down my face. Material things can always be replaced but lives can’t. The memories of those who lost their lives on the cold seas must not be forgotten. So many movies and theories have been made how the “unsinkable” ship sank and to this day it still remains a mystery. If they had video cameras like we have today it probably would have told a different story. One of the images that caught my attention was the beautiful chinaware that still remains intact unbroken after they fell out of the China cabinet. May the memories of these families who lost their beloved live on.
Pretty sure those were new, unused dishes, in a protective crate, and packing material. Just landed on the bottom and the crate and everything around the dishes slowly disappeared, leaving the plates still neatly stacked.
It’s hard to say what picture was the best….they all just make you stop and think of all the things that happened that night. It is eerie to think how pitch black the waters are down there. The music was a good choice for the video. I will say, the bathtub kind of brought a more personal touch to what is down there. It is amazing how the dishes and the tub looks so white as if they were just put there. Thank you for sharing.
Three years ago I visited Ireland and Queenstown its the closest I'm ever going to be to the titanic. Thanks for sharing these pictures I don't have any specific favorites I just really like to see the ship now a 110 years later.
Back in early 2000 I was serving in the US NAVY as an Administration Officer(LT./O-3) and we made a port visit to Halifax NS Canada. I bought a submarine ticket to view Titanic at 2:37am on the 100yr Anniversary. You talk about eerie/spooky(down to your core). It’s a site I’ll never forget. Plus I toured the 3 cemeteries of where some passengers were laid to rest. I took pictures of the tombstones close enough that you can read them off the picture
Eerie yet beautiful. Titanic is what made me interested in ships to begin with. While I doubt it will be gone in 8 just years, us prodding around in there isn't helping to slow its deterioration down. My guess is more like 2050 unless we chill out and stop disturbing the resting ship.
Think we have acquired enough information now, to leave this alone as a grave site. Maybe a sanctioned dive to check the state of the wreck, but time to leave alone now, and allow the victims to rest in peace.
I think this may be the most robbed and desecrated grave in modern history. The Crow's Nest, for example, was still attached till it was destroyed by grave robbers stealing the bell.
Any who lament the deterioration of the Titanic should remember that had she not sunk she would’ve been scrapped for parts like the Olympic in the 1930s. Nothing lasts forever and very few ocean liners were ever preserved.
One other reason why the titanic is rapidly corroding and deteriorating is because each time they go down there they are stirring it up and just aggravates the rusting and the bacterior eating it and when its prodded and poked all the time and nudged and budged of course its going to accelerate the deterioration process, especially when the subs land on the deck. Any shipwreck will be fine for many decafes or even centuries dependind on whete it sank and the type of water, currents etc bit when you go down to it and start interfering with the wreck then ots going to start rapidly deteriorating.
There are only a few places in the oceans where wrecks endure well and none in the north Atlantic are better than this. It's a hostile environment but yeah, man-made disturbances speed up the decay.
This is amazing footage. It's so hard to look at the images of the ship. When you know the story ,there were so many ships in the area , that could have saved a lot of lives. Cannot imagine what it must have been like to have been on that ship. 110 years later. 🕊️
Well, the only ship that was close enough to actually be able to help was the Californian. They had stopped for the night due to the icebergs and when they were told to shut up by Phillips they switched the radio off and went to bed. They never heard the distress calls from the Titanic.
@@destructionnl8165 There was more than one ship in the area you need to read the facts. And flares were seen by that ship you're speaking of and they ignored them.
@@melaniebrantner6844 I'm definately not saying Californian was the ONLY ship that was close. It was one of the closest. I know the facts. Titanic sank because: - The lookouts didn't have binoculars - They wanted to make the voyage fastest - Iceberg warnings were ignored More people could've been saved if 1) the Titanic had more lifeboats and 2) the crew did their job properly, instead of the woman and children ONLY thing they did. If i'd heard a ship closeby decided to stop for the night, i'd have thought that might be a pretty good advice in those circumstances. Problem is of course Smith only heard what the marconi operators tell him, and they didn't tell him everything.
@@destructionnl8165 Actually, Here's a Fun fact: The Course that the Titanic took, would have actually _Been_ the clearest... But on that fateful night, The Moon was the closest to the Earth than it had been for nearly a thousand years... Meaning that it pulled an Iceberg right into the path of the Titanic. It's why the Crew were so shocked and unable to react. The Warnings indicated that the Path was Clear... So there should _not_ have been icebergs... But since the moon was so close, the Tides became unpredictable. It was less "Human Error" or "Human Pride", than it was due to the stars aligning.
@@Victor-056 Human error was certainly a part of the story. Sight was bad (in regards to finding icebergs), with all the warnings Titanic received they should've been more carefull. Sailing at 22 knots isn't exactly what i call carefull. Californian deciding to stop for the night, that was probably the best idea. But no, they wanted to show the Titanic was the fastest around, sadly.
I've doubts that the wreck will be completely gone by 2030... that's only 8 years away. One thing I find interesting is that many recoverable pieces are left behind whilst others that should be left alone have been brought back. For instance, personal items. The telegraph for inner ship coms is one of those that could be a great museum piece.
@@brodriguez11000 and the ocean floor will claim the remains of the titanic facts. In the 2000's the documentaries and scientist spoke of that fact. Going as far as saying it will probably get buried under the ocean floor before it rusts away. So what exactly is the point you are trying to make. It's over two miles under the ocean no way right now to do an archeological dig at that depth.
people say it shouldn't be disturbed but there's little better way to understand history than to see it with your own eyes. some things really should be recovered before they're destroyed. from these photos the plates, the ship telegraph, the propeller, the bench end, and the bathtub would be better off in belfast or the smithsonian than rotting away. unfortunately the tub is likely broken now or at least buried. i don't know how the propellers could be salvaged at that depth but seeing one would give a more real sense of the scale and grandeur of the Titanic. real artifacts that connect the viewer with a real person who once lived have a power to them. if we want to remember the disaster and how important it is to the histories of sail, immigration, safety, colonialism, economics, etc then our museums must be visceral. it's important to feel history as much as to know it.
I agree, some more pieces should be salvaged and put into museum's with honor and care. Why let it all rot? A propeller, the plates, maybe a porthole, I agree
@@108chaitea imagine going to the titanic museum and seeing before you the real bow of the world's most famous ship, with "TITANIC" still visible. imagine reconstructing from the hull fragments the great gash from the iceberg as a dividing wall, seeing through the hole a reconstruction of one of the grand rooms like the first class restaurants. absolutely you should go to the titanic museum in belfast, it's great, but bringing the ship home would make it so much better. Titanic captivates you and doesn't let you go. it touches you and you will never forget it. it's not right to leave it there to be forgotten and buried. everyone who died there in the freezing atlantic on the 15th of april, 1912 deserves to be remembered.
I'd love to see a modern day titanic built to the same specs and outfitted with the exact same furniture and things on it , I'd love to sail from Liverpool to N.Y. on it but not with the same outcome!
Unfortunately I would say that it's impossible for a 100% original Titanic to be made, Due to the new safety standards and whatnot, The closest is/was the Titanic II project which would look MOSTLY like Titanic but not 100% the same unfortunately.
This is a well-presented video so I am not taking issue with the poster, but I fail to understand how it took the Titanic 110 years to get to its present state but will be "gone" in just eight more. Could someone explain?
I am not a marine biologist, I am an engineer, so this might not be the most relevant comparison but here goes. Think of a bridge, building, or any structure. It can be fine for years, and then the next moment it collapses, even though there is no new force acting on it... No wind, no explosion, no accident, it just fails abruptly. Bridges, buildings, and other structures get inspected routinely for these reasons, so they can see damage and repair it before failure happens. Degradation is not a linear thing. A crack or flaw can exist in an object and be totally seemingly harmless, and grow for several years detected or undetected, at a very very slow pace. Once it reaches the "critical flaw" or "critical crack" size, it propagates (moves) at the speed of sound, which is extremely fast, and the building/structure/Titanic collapses in a matter of seconds. These difficult to detect cracks or flaws in a structure are very often the cause for even modern engineering disasters, and they are very poorly understood, and at times very difficult to predict or prevent. I believe the term "gone" when used by experts and amateurs alike is extremely ambiguous, and has multiple meanings. If a large part of the bow of Titanic pancakes abruptly on top of itself, does that mean Titanic is gone? Well, I'm not sure. Hope that helps.
@@nobshistoryengineering4421 Many thanks. Yes, this does help explain. Essentially, as I understand you, the degradation reaches a point of criticality and then the entire house of cards implodes. I think I misunderstood the term "gone". Rather than structural collapse I took it to mean something more akin to the materials of the Titanic being entirely dissolved by the sea.
Yes, I’ll explain. It won’t. It will continue to deteriorate, even collapsing exponentially, but it won’t be “gone”. People that say that are drama queens.
I like the picture of the plates it’s interesting to say they are untouched. I’m surprised that they are still quite a number left. I must admit that if I was going down I would want one not as a souvenir book more of a reminder of what went wrong in the hope that it will never go so tragically wrong again
8:27 "Unrecognizeable wreckage" is the innards of a steam turbine, the compressor blades are easily visible. The thin outer casing has dissolved away, revealing the compressor blade assembly.
I have read this on many websites, and it does look similar to what you describe but, I don't believe it is associated with any turbine. I have asked one Titanic expert what he believes it is and he doesn't know what it is, but agreed it was not a turbine. I have gone back and forth looking at this picture for quite some time. I would rather label it as nothing than incorrectly label it as something, hopefully that makes sense. Maybe it is what you describe though, and if it is, I will happily eat my words. Also, since you're a scooby1961 subscriber, you're one of my best friends.
I had an interesting dream a while ago. It was about how people were able to send giant lights down to the bottom of the ocean to Titanic and take clear as day pics of the wreck. And a photo was from above the ship before it got to the ground and you could see it as if it was daylight. No clue why id dream of something like that but it was interesting. Maybe it can really be done? doubt it but it would be stunning nonetheless
The sad thing is so many people lost their lives due to corporate greed, arrogance and ignorance. Travel is safer now because of this tragedy. God bless everyone who travels for business and or luxury.
So lucky we found the Titanic when we did and had people with the passion and capability to go and explore her over the decades....She is slowly losing her shape and in another 50-100 years she will slowly fall apart and be covered by the sea floor. Feel privlidged to be able to see all the wonderful images of the wreck over the years and to go and see artifacts from the ship. Future generations will appreciate all the hard work to record the site and to save some of the pricless artifacts from the most famous Marine disaster in history.
Sad to see what remains are here … the loss of life … now just remains of the great ship disintegrating . As a kid I was always fascinated by this great ship … the china that is all intact should all be brought up and preserved . It would truly be a site to see on display .
Who knew that there was a bacteria that eats iron? The extent of the destruction is amazing. There’s barely a single surface that hasn’t withstood damage from the wreck or from the years on the bottom of the ocean.
I wonder what the officer's window frames were made of. Free of corrosion, they look as new as the day they were made, yet they do not appear to be made of brass/bronze...
That the dishes are still intact is unbelievable after this catastrophic accident. The lives lost is the sad thing we forget about all this it's a grave side.

Ever found a really old piece metal on a river bed ? some that are found date over a hundred years and when you rubb the goowy stuff off of it you can still find paint that hasn't peeled off yet and strop that paint and you will unveil the steel as it was when it ended up there but where there is no more paint the steel is eroded deep and sometime all the way thru . thats what is happenning to the titanic right now as there is hardly anymore paint left
@@nobshistoryengineering4421 when was the LAST TIME he went down to the wreck? Was it when he and James Cameron did that documentary in 2017 or so?
@@ChairmanPaulieD That is a good question, I honestly thought it was 2012.
Well, for being in eternal darkness for over a century, I'd say she's shipshape and Bristol fashion! At least the forward 2/3, for one reason: her forward hull was flooded when it broke. The aft third of the ship was destroyed by compressed air, was almost unrecognizeable, blown apart from the inside as compressed gases overwhelmed 19th-century technology.
Imagine seeing the Titanic a few years after the sinking? That would be Amazing.
Goosebumps just thinking of that 😳
I have always wished that footage existed! We can only imagine I guess.
With body remains all around? For sure it would like amazing... Seriously?! Come on...
@@MonicaDBrini How the fuck would there be footage? Lmao
@@rdaws73 There wouldn’t be. That’s the point. We are imagining. Try it sometime. It might make you less hostile.
It would be cool, if photos from the ship before it sank, could be found to match with these “after” photos. Seeing them side by side would be awesome.
I remember as a kid going to the science center in Ontario to watch what was called "The Jason project" (small deepwater camera) on its first trip to show us video of the titanic.It was quite amazing. I now live in St. John's Newfoundland and the Atlantic ocean is not a forgiving one. Ice cold all year round. The hottest day you still couldnt handle standing in most waters for more than a few minutes. And the sunburn you can get if you dont wipe the salty water off before lying in the sun to warm up is brutal. I never burned before moving here. But it is also beautiful. The humpback whales ,the marine life. Things you find from years ago,shells,rocks,jewellery. Its natural for this to corrode and eventually just fade into the sand of the ocean bottom.
I can understand how the water near Newfoundland never really gets warm, even in the summer months, there are usually plenty of icebergs not too far away.. I'm sure its still quite nice up there though, I have some extended family in Nova Scotia.
Beautiful yet very haunting. It's hard to figure out what's what in the new ones. Poor old girl. Titanic was a really beautiful ship. Loved your video. I'm a big Titanic nerd. Hi from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦.
Yeah I wish I could do a better job identifying exactly what I'm looking at when I see wreck photos or video, sometimes its easy othertimes... not so much.
A lot (most) of the unlabeled images are from the stern section, which is massively destroyed and basically unrecognizable as a portion of a ship. I identified one as the one remaining cargo crane on the stern, and the one with the 3 "boxes" as right on the very aft end
I have been fascinated with the story of the Titanic ever since I saw the black/white movie with Barbara Stanwyck. To see the actual wreckage is surreal. All the pictures are fantastic to see but haunting.
They are all amazing, it's very moving to see this footage.
God rest the the souls who lost their lives.
Still beautiful In her own special way even after all these years living down below the ocean 😔
I feel it was like looking in a loved ones dug up, old coffin.
Kinda disgusting actually.
@@calumbutter8959 my great grandfather went down with his armed merchant ship in the English Channel. He was a Boatswain on The SS Borg, which was torpedoed by a German U Boat and went down 20 miles SW by S at Lizard Point in 1918. The wreck is considered a war grave. Personally, I would love to see pictures of his grave site.
@@1961-v9k I kinda think we are starting an argument that doesn't deserve to be.
Mangled English, sorry. Lazy.
First, thanks for your family's sacrifice. I looked at the area you mentioned on an old style map. Scary, horrible way to die.
We love the Titanic, yeah?
Of course we do.
That one fact puts you in the top 1% of my fav peeps.
@@calumbutter8959 oh no I was just thinking you are more respectful than me by wanting to let things like this lie. Me, I’m too nosey, but to be honest I would probs get too upset if I did one day see the wreck so best leave well alone. Incidentally, there is a memorial at Tower Hill (of which my grand father’s name is on) listing the names of hundreds of merchant seamen who went down with their ships. Thank you for the kind words.
@@1961-v9k let me be 100% crystal friggin clear.
We should pull up every single thing that sank there.
Before it's gone.
Theres a boy, a hundred years from now, that's going to be taken by the story of RMS T. Whobthebheckbam I to deny him /her/they artifacts from the event?
Obviously rhetorical question so don't answer.
I remember the day the news broke about finding the Titanic. I was about 16yo and well on my way to supergeek status.
I was so disappointed that I have not the words to express my feelings. Online thesaurus be damned. At that time we didn't know what really happened at that depth. My dumb young brain thought it would all be perfectly preserved because there is no light or oxygen at that depth.
What I got was a rotten corpse. I know it's RMS but I'll never let myself get over that initial reflex.
A defo right of passage of sorts.
"to learn what no sailor wants to know, that every ship is sinkable" - Ludovic Kennedy
I wonder what she'll be like 50 years from now, if she's still around by then. I hope that I can one day go down to her and visit her, as a history buff, I believe it'd be amazing to see
I tried not to get emotional but without me crying I had some tears coming down my face. Material things can always be replaced but lives can’t. The memories of those who lost their lives on the cold seas must not be forgotten. So many movies and theories have been made how the “unsinkable” ship sank and to this day it still remains a mystery. If they had video cameras like we have today it probably would have told a different story. One of the images that caught my attention was the beautiful chinaware that still remains intact unbroken after they fell out of the China cabinet. May the memories of these families who lost their beloved live on.
Pretty sure those were new, unused dishes, in a protective crate, and packing material. Just landed on the bottom and the crate and everything around the dishes slowly disappeared, leaving the plates still neatly stacked.
Yeah man, I'd start taking that antique stuff xD
Same here

The bow of the ship....no question!!
Thanks for the feedback
It’s hard to say what picture was the best….they all just make you stop and think of all the things that happened that night. It is eerie to think how pitch black the waters are down there. The music was a good choice for the video. I will say, the bathtub kind of brought a more personal touch to what is down there. It is amazing how the dishes and the tub looks so white as if they were just put there. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for explaining what every photo taken is
1st class video to watch thank you take care kind regards from me kenneth🙂💗👍
Three years ago I visited Ireland and Queenstown its the closest I'm ever going to be to the titanic. Thanks for sharing these pictures I don't have any specific favorites I just really like to see the ship now a 110 years later.
Videos like this really help me tackle my submechanophobia and I appreciate them.
I learned a new word today, thanks!
How does this channel only have 31 subs? This is so interesting
Thanks for the support.
Back in early 2000 I was serving in the US NAVY as an Administration Officer(LT./O-3) and we made a port visit to Halifax NS Canada. I bought a submarine ticket to view Titanic at 2:37am on the 100yr Anniversary. You talk about eerie/spooky(down to your core). It’s a site I’ll never forget. Plus I toured the 3 cemeteries of where some passengers were laid to rest. I took pictures of the tombstones close enough that you can read them off the picture
Thank you for giving me more facts about underwater with the titanic😘
I thought the images at 7:07 (The telegraph in Titanic's wheelhouse) and and especially 8:09 (Captain Smith's cabin) were particularly moving.
Vừa vào đã nổi cả da gà 藍giọng a Phúc hayyy quá, mong sẽ tiếp tục cover ạ ❤️
I seriously doubt that it will be gone by 2030. Even when the main wreck collapses, the debris will last hundreds of years.
I liked all of the photos, I think all of them were Fantastic.🤩
Eerie yet beautiful. Titanic is what made me interested in ships to begin with.
While I doubt it will be gone in 8 just years, us prodding around in there isn't helping to slow its deterioration down. My guess is more like 2050 unless we chill out and stop disturbing the resting ship.
Think we have acquired enough information now, to leave this alone as a grave site. Maybe a sanctioned dive to check the state of the wreck, but time to leave alone now, and allow the victims to rest in peace.
Even tho she is gone she is beautiful and a sight to behold. She will never be forgotten along with the Souls who went down with her. 🙏
Nice compilation and work blending what was with what it is today.
These photos are cool
Thanks, I will create similar videos in the future If I can collect enough photos. Glad you enjoyed.
a tribute to how, even on the most unsuspecting calm nights, mother nature always has the upper hand
Excellent video.
I think this may be the most robbed and desecrated grave in modern history. The Crow's Nest, for example, was still attached till it was destroyed by grave robbers stealing the bell.
You are desperate for attention.
Well presented!
I love the titanic and everything about it. It’s so sad to watch her rust and crumble a way.
Any who lament the deterioration of the Titanic should remember that had she not sunk she would’ve been scrapped for parts like the Olympic in the 1930s.
Nothing lasts forever and very few ocean liners were ever preserved.
have always been fascinated by details of the Titanic, some very haunting pictures.
Love the technology of that era the ship was a marvel of its time. Sad to see it that way.
One other reason why the titanic is rapidly corroding and deteriorating is because each time they go down there they are stirring it up and just aggravates the rusting and the bacterior eating it and when its prodded and poked all the time and nudged and budged of course its going to accelerate the deterioration process, especially when the subs land on the deck. Any shipwreck will be fine for many decafes or even centuries dependind on whete it sank and the type of water, currents etc bit when you go down to it and start interfering with the wreck then ots going to start rapidly deteriorating.
There are only a few places in the oceans where wrecks endure well and none in the north Atlantic are better than this. It's a hostile environment but yeah, man-made disturbances speed up the decay.
This is amazing footage.
It's so hard to look at the images of the ship. When you know the story ,there were so many ships in the area , that could have saved a lot of lives. Cannot imagine what it must have been like to have been on that ship.
110 years later. 🕊️
Well, the only ship that was close enough to actually be able to help was the Californian. They had stopped for the night due to the icebergs and when they were told to shut up by Phillips they switched the radio off and went to bed. They never heard the distress calls from the Titanic.
@@destructionnl8165
There was more than one ship in the area you need to read the facts. And flares were seen by that ship you're speaking of and they ignored them.
@@melaniebrantner6844 I'm definately not saying Californian was the ONLY ship that was close. It was one of the closest.
I know the facts. Titanic sank because:
- The lookouts didn't have binoculars
- They wanted to make the voyage fastest
- Iceberg warnings were ignored
More people could've been saved if 1) the Titanic had more lifeboats and 2) the crew did their job properly, instead of the woman and children ONLY thing they did.
If i'd heard a ship closeby decided to stop for the night, i'd have thought that might be a pretty good advice in those circumstances. Problem is of course Smith only heard what the marconi operators tell him, and they didn't tell him everything.
@@destructionnl8165 Actually, Here's a Fun fact:
The Course that the Titanic took, would have actually _Been_ the clearest... But on that fateful night, The Moon was the closest to the Earth than it had been for nearly a thousand years... Meaning that it pulled an Iceberg right into the path of the Titanic.
It's why the Crew were so shocked and unable to react. The Warnings indicated that the Path was Clear... So there should _not_ have been icebergs...
But since the moon was so close, the Tides became unpredictable. It was less "Human Error" or "Human Pride", than it was due to the stars aligning.
@@Victor-056 Human error was certainly a part of the story. Sight was bad (in regards to finding icebergs), with all the warnings Titanic received they should've been more carefull. Sailing at 22 knots isn't exactly what i call carefull. Californian deciding to stop for the night, that was probably the best idea. But no, they wanted to show the Titanic was the fastest around, sadly.
Awesome video and haunting at the same time. Nice work!!
I like the picture of the dishes, it makes me wonder what kind of food they were eating back then. Thanks for sharing!
If you check out this video, you can see what they were eating.

I liked all of the pictures they were amazing
I've doubts that the wreck will be completely gone by 2030... that's only 8 years away.
One thing I find interesting is that many recoverable pieces are left behind whilst others that should be left alone have been brought back. For instance, personal items. The telegraph for inner ship coms is one of those that could be a great museum piece.
It's less the wreck rusting away and more the ship getting buried on the ocean floor.
@@spiderfan1974 Things made of brass would hold up better.
@@brodriguez11000 and the ocean floor will claim the remains of the titanic facts. In the 2000's the documentaries and scientist spoke of that fact. Going as far as saying it will probably get buried under the ocean floor before it rusts away. So what exactly is the point you are trying to make. It's over two miles under the ocean no way right now to do an archeological dig at that depth.
I wish it was possible to get a bright light to light the entire area to see the ship from a wide view!
Great lighting!, so much detail! Awesome photography
people say it shouldn't be disturbed but there's little better way to understand history than to see it with your own eyes. some things really should be recovered before they're destroyed. from these photos the plates, the ship telegraph, the propeller, the bench end, and the bathtub would be better off in belfast or the smithsonian than rotting away. unfortunately the tub is likely broken now or at least buried.
i don't know how the propellers could be salvaged at that depth but seeing one would give a more real sense of the scale and grandeur of the Titanic. real artifacts that connect the viewer with a real person who once lived have a power to them. if we want to remember the disaster and how important it is to the histories of sail, immigration, safety, colonialism, economics, etc then our museums must be visceral. it's important to feel history as much as to know it.
I agree, some more pieces should be salvaged and put into museum's with honor and care. Why let it all rot? A propeller, the plates, maybe a porthole, I agree
@@108chaitea imagine going to the titanic museum and seeing before you the real bow of the world's most famous ship, with "TITANIC" still visible. imagine reconstructing from the hull fragments the great gash from the iceberg as a dividing wall, seeing through the hole a reconstruction of one of the grand rooms like the first class restaurants. absolutely you should go to the titanic museum in belfast, it's great, but bringing the ship home would make it so much better.
Titanic captivates you and doesn't let you go. it touches you and you will never forget it. it's not right to leave it there to be forgotten and buried. everyone who died there in the freezing atlantic on the 15th of april, 1912 deserves to be remembered.
海底のタイタニック号の映像は、殆どが船首部分ばかりだが、
今回の映像はスクリューが撮影されて居るのは非常に珍しいと思います👍
出来れば、船尾の船名部分（TITANICの記載部分）や舵部分も観てみたいものです。
画質が鮮明な点も良いですね！
I'd love to see a modern day titanic built to the same specs and outfitted with the exact same furniture and things on it , I'd love to sail from Liverpool to N.Y. on it but not with the same outcome!
Unfortunately I would say that it's impossible for a 100% original Titanic to be made, Due to the new safety standards and whatnot, The closest is/was the Titanic II project which would look MOSTLY like Titanic but not 100% the same unfortunately.
You won't, the standards of living had improved a lot more. Any cruise ship cabin today can be considered First class back then.
Okay these pics are spooky to say the least, all those lives lost, but does anyone see the face and figure @6:19 in the right promenade window?
I think it’s just shadows (I hope) but I see two
This is a well-presented video so I am not taking issue with the poster, but I fail to understand how it took the Titanic 110 years to get to its present state but will be "gone" in just eight more. Could someone explain?
I am not a marine biologist, I am an engineer, so this might not be the most relevant comparison but here goes.
Think of a bridge, building, or any structure. It can be fine for years, and then the next moment it collapses, even though there is no new force acting on it... No wind, no explosion, no accident, it just fails abruptly.
Bridges, buildings, and other structures get inspected routinely for these reasons, so they can see damage and repair it before failure happens.
Degradation is not a linear thing. A crack or flaw can exist in an object and be totally seemingly harmless, and grow for several years detected or undetected, at a very very slow pace. Once it reaches the "critical flaw" or "critical crack" size, it propagates (moves) at the speed of sound, which is extremely fast, and the building/structure/Titanic collapses in a matter of seconds.
These difficult to detect cracks or flaws in a structure are very often the cause for even modern engineering disasters, and they are very poorly understood, and at times very difficult to predict or prevent.
I believe the term "gone" when used by experts and amateurs alike is extremely ambiguous, and has multiple meanings. If a large part of the bow of Titanic pancakes abruptly on top of itself, does that mean Titanic is gone? Well, I'm not sure.
Hope that helps.
@@nobshistoryengineering4421 Many thanks. Yes, this does help explain. Essentially, as I understand you, the degradation reaches a point of criticality and then the entire house of cards implodes. I think I misunderstood the term "gone". Rather than structural collapse I took it to mean something more akin to the materials of the Titanic being entirely dissolved by the sea.
Yes, I’ll explain. It won’t. It will continue to deteriorate, even collapsing exponentially, but it won’t be “gone”. People that say that are drama queens.
I like the picture of the plates it’s interesting to say they are untouched. I’m surprised that they are still quite a number left. I must admit that if I was going down I would want one not as a souvenir book more of a reminder of what went wrong in the hope that it will never go so tragically wrong again
8:27 "Unrecognizeable wreckage" is the innards of a steam turbine, the compressor blades are easily visible. The thin outer casing has dissolved away, revealing the compressor blade assembly.
I have read this on many websites, and it does look similar to what you describe but, I don't believe it is associated with any turbine. I have asked one Titanic expert what he believes it is and he doesn't know what it is, but agreed it was not a turbine. I have gone back and forth looking at this picture for quite some time.
I would rather label it as nothing than incorrectly label it as something, hopefully that makes sense. Maybe it is what you describe though, and if it is, I will happily eat my words.
Also, since you're a scooby1961 subscriber, you're one of my best friends.
@@nobshistoryengineering4421 What do the building plans say should have been in that area?
Thank you very much for sharing, appreciate it a lot.

Good work, bro !
I had an interesting dream a while ago. It was about how people were able to send giant lights down to the bottom of the ocean to Titanic and take clear as day pics of the wreck. And a photo was from above the ship before it got to the ground and you could see it as if it was daylight. No clue why id dream of something like that but it was interesting. Maybe it can really be done? doubt it but it would be stunning nonetheless
Most interesting is Capt Smiths bathtub! Also the crows nest
The sad thing is so many people lost their lives due to corporate greed, arrogance and ignorance. Travel is safer now because of this tragedy. God bless everyone who travels for business and or luxury.
God bless thank you for the video I enjoyed watching it loved all the photos no favorite one
It's so eerie looking a the wreck of Titanic, like Pirates of the Caribean you expect ghosts to walk out.
I agree... definitely spooky.
If you look at the position of the engine telegraph at 7:09 it is still in the "Full a Stern" position.
So lucky we found the Titanic when we did and had people with the passion and capability to go and explore her over the decades....She is slowly losing her shape and in another 50-100 years she will slowly fall apart and be covered by the sea floor. Feel privlidged to be able to see all the wonderful images of the wreck over the years and to go and see artifacts from the ship. Future generations will appreciate all the hard work to record the site and to save some of the pricless artifacts from the most famous Marine disaster in history.
This was a brand new ship, everything was brand new, and just like that, sank into darkness
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust , metal to rust, rust to dust. One day she, and most of us… will be gone
Sad to see what remains are here … the loss of life … now just remains of the great ship disintegrating . As a kid I was always fascinated by this great ship … the china that is all intact should all be brought up and preserved . It would truly be a site to see on display .
Truly amazing, heartbreaking and a bit eerie.
Eerie indeed.
Who knew that there was a bacteria that eats iron? The extent of the destruction is amazing. There’s barely a single surface that hasn’t withstood damage from the wreck or from the years on the bottom of the ocean.
112 years and all the sinks and Swiming pools are still full of water unbelievable
6:02 My Favorit Image,its like she's still waiting to be safed.😍
there really is something behind some iron parts that we don't know
Whatever kind of glass those plates were made of must be durable as hell if they can survive 2 miles deep of water pressure. Just sayin.
I wonder what the officer's window frames were made of. Free of corrosion, they look as new as the day they were made, yet they do not appear to be made of brass/bronze...
They are bronze.
I got goosebumps seeing these photos
Thank you for showing us lots of the parts, until the wreck is overtaken by nature.
@ 3:00, the image of the starboard propeller plainly shows the blade missing from the 7 o'clock position.
It in the sand
That the dishes are still intact is unbelievable after this catastrophic accident. The lives lost is the sad thing we forget about all this it's a grave side.
Would be nice if they could put together a full image of both the stern and bow here soon
Amazing after 100 years that one of the most beautiful ship set sail and hit the iceberg that is most saddened in history ❤️
Stunning beautiful and eerie
I liked the front of the ship, and the bathtub photo
