Thanks so much for your lovely comments and super chats, apologies I did not get to approach them all but as always I hugely appreciate your support and interest :) Thanks for watching! ~Mike
For some reason this video isn't showing up when I go to your videos page. YT has your videos sorted by latest first, with Amazing Sinking Ships first, How Titan was Built second, How Did They Navigate the Titanic? third. These three videos are older than this (live) video so this should be first when it shows up. I found it because it was in my history, but you could also do a search for it (on your channel), but it shows up fourth after two shorts and one playlist.
The problem is sort of solved. YT created another menu/page where all live videos go. I didnt mind live videos being mixed with regular videos but I didnt like shorts mixed in with regular (and live) videos (I dont watch shorts).
Remarkable that we're all still obsessed by the Titanic. Best renderings of the ship's interior I've seen! Hopefully, Part 2 will venture into rooms and suites as well as second class and steerage parts of the ship. And let's not forget the engine rooms!
I've been obsessed since I was about 6 years old when someone in my family bought me a book called chronicles of the 20th century for Christmas. I still have the book somewhere. When I was 10 years old the movie came out and it blew me away, not so much the story of jack and rose but just because it put everything I'd read about and seen photo's of into real life. At the age of 37 I'm still learning things I never knew about the Titanic and love being in this endless lifelong rabbit hole 🙂
I'm so obsessed with the Titanic that the year 1912 just sticks with me, when I'm learning about anything from that era that's not even related, I think Oh that was before/after Titanic. Kinda like BC and AD lol.
Think it would be cool someday to do a day in the life of a passenger, all classes, crewmember even the captain. From arriving, finding their room and going throughout the ship. Dinning room down the hallways to different parts of the ship and on deck. Sure that would be so much work thro but maybe someday.
You could literally have 2200 NPC AIs where hundreds are playable; many based on real ppl, & others fictional characters, that would allow for interaction amongst NPCs like Jack & Rose-esque romances. 2 types of gameplay could be split up between a fully realistic version & a more advanced fictional/real hybrid, with even more fictional immersiveness in the 1912 like faux clothing & item shops, hairstyles, etc. You could explore, loot, steal, & even end up in jail at the time of the iceberg like Jack did. Rare items & clothing to find, open world free itinerary for the 1st 4 days of voyage. One of the main goals would be finding 1 of the rare boat maps & collecting items that can help you in the impending doom (lockpicks, rope, knives, etc). You could experience the dining menu, flirting w/ & befriending higher class passengers & crew to gain access to forbidden places. Charisma, bartering, stealth will help you gain access to lifeboats, depending on your demographic. Health bar, food, water, temperature gage! bc part of surviving is ofc not freezing to death. Unique obstacles to face at certain time stamps in certain parts of the ship during the sinking. Get sucked down, hold onto debris. See if you can survive all the way to the Carapathia. Maybe some passengers are not scripted to survive & you will have to be extra resourceful to save them (or just face your fated death). Randomize between 3rd, 2nd, 1st, 1st class promenade, & crew; fully randomize; or pick exactly which character you want to be. With advanced true-AIs as fully-immersive NPCs, anything could be possible with this. Ha you could team up with a lost child like Cal did to get on a lifeboat, or steal a woman's baby! The survival options are endless if this could ever really be done. I love that Honor & Glory has accepted this as a long-term project that can be continually improved. I hope it gets to this point one day, VR version too, bc that's what we all want & it would be amazing!!
Ive thought about this, but along with the animation, voice work and placing real characters in realtime based on known events would be extremely difficult, as well as trying to avoid them doing fictional things. No matter people will complain like they did with the 1997 film given how some historical persons were portrayed so it's possibly not worth the effort. At least with the ship the details and facts are relatively iron clad and not up for subjective debate, but it would be nice to have some people on the ship, it's certainly a bit sterile being empty.
There is a mod called UEVR, that turns almost every Unreal Engine 4 or 5 game into VR. If that's what this is running on, then you can be in for a real treat right now!
After spending almost 3 hours on board Titanic, I was somehow surprised to find myself back on dry land at the end of this. This was an awesome experience.
Hey Mike! Had a great time during the stream. Glad my friend Mike Brady from Oceanliner Designs was here to walk me through the Titanic Demo 401, since my old HP notebook would melt running this demo haha
Sorry I missed the livestream 😢 💔 Was explaining to my 17 year-old why I cannot get enough of, as she says, “niche” Titanic culture. She IS right. Most people don’t care about which color of white paint was used (haha) or for example the cork insulation, or Edwardian décor motifs. I think the interior spaces are indeed my favorite aspect of Titanic yet beyond the human tale of tragedy. I never would have discovered this without TH&G and Oceanliner Designs. I’m hooked and will try to do more on Patreon SOON. Cheers ☕️
At last!!! I'm so happy to hear finally people whom I respect actually debunking the notion that the Grand Staircase floated out of the ship as it sank! Thumbs up just for that!
@@BuckarooBoya It was first started by James Cameron during the filming of Titanic, after his Grand Staircase replica floated from the water. crashing into the dome, which of itself was an impossible event because by the time the dome imploded, the whole room would've been effectively underwater anyway.
And not spending your lives of course. I mean what a great opportunity to see the wreck but I would be too scared to do this, I guess. I mean as an average tourist. Would be different of course, when I was a Scientist or whatever...
And not spending your lives of course. I mean what a great opportunity to see the wreck but I would be too scared to do this, I guess. I mean as an average tourist. Would be different of course, when I was a Scientist or whatever...
I know you probably wanted to get through more of 1st class but going through these few spaces in such fine detail and hearing about the new research is exactly why I follow this channel!
The Titanic Recipe book is a must. I’ve made several recipes from it. But my hands down favorite special dinner is The Sirloin of Beef Foristair, with the asparagus in Hollandaise sauce and a rosè sorbet for a lighter dessert. I would recommend any Titanic enthusiast add this book to their collection.
Being and Architectural Engineer by trade who specializes in Millwork I'm always amazed by the detail and woodwork all throughout the ship. I literally have spent hours roaming around the demo just examining the wood paneling, columns etc. The amount of time and effort that was put into the millwork on Titanic (or other ocean liners of the time) is extraordinary. Every little onlay was painstakingly hand carved and applied, every piece of molding, balusters, newels, capitals, all hand carved. There's thousands of hours in work just in the carvings alone. Today these ornate carvings can be done in a matter of minutes using computers and a CNC machine. Back then millworkers were artisans more akin to a sculptor than what we think of a millworker today. Also good on the Project 401 team for capturing this detail as accurately as they have.
I absolutely loved this. Thank you! I feel like shaking these guys' hands for what they've done with THG, and the fact they care as much about the nerdy tiny details as I do. When you've learned all the big important details from years of loving this ship, it's a treat to get stuck into these nitty gritty new details.
Here's why the Titanic's story will never die: (1) she was the world's biggest movable man-made object of her day, (2) she excelled in luxury, (3) she was on her maiden voyage (of all voyages), (4) there were many celebrities of the day on board, (5) there was already a lot of talk about all her features before she was ever launched (including the whole "unsinkability" talk), and (6) the Titanic is regarded as the first ship in living memory to be sunk by an iceberg. The Titanic shall always be in our minds despite herself; unlike the ship itself, the story remains unsinkable
Re: the Gymnasium The concept of that “back rubbing” machine is still in use today. My chiropractor’s office has a table almost exactly like that, except you lie down flat. Has the rectangular hole and a roller and everything. I think it’s called a traction table now. So interesting yet somehow hilarious. 😆
The old version of the electric bath, where you literally sit in water with an electric current, is still a thing in Japan, (called "denkiburo"). They say it is good for the muscles. I wouldn't know.
Next thing this computer model needs is NPCs to populate it out and make it seem less of a ghost ship. Those spaces would have been full of people, chatter and the smell of expensive perfumes and cigar smoke. Alive, not sterile.
Sorry I missed the livesream Mike . Was in a meeting . Incredibly impressed by the details learned about the Turkish Bath and Gymnasium and even the swimming pool on Titanic . Kudos to you and the rest of the team involved in this exquisite recreation of the Titanic . Very proud indeed .
Oh I hate I missed this! AMAZING WORK FROM EVERYONE! I can’t even imagine this under taking. A couple years ago, I was able go to the Titanic museum in Pigeon Forge and got to see some small cuts of rug brought up from the wreckage. Also, soooo lucky to see the Hartley violin in person. Thank you for bringing the glory of the Titanic to life, and thank you for the amazing tour guidance!
This was awesome! I'd love to see you maybe talk about the illegal salvage of warships in the pacific. It's a big story you probably already know about. Workers find skulls and bones in steel pieces and they say all the steel smells like burnt flesh when they cut it with a torch.
Thanks for the hours and hours of your tedious labor to produce the interiors and this stream in particular, but yeah, I really, really am disappointed that the staterooms and other first-class areas of the ship are missing here. ... one hopes you can do a similar detailed tour in future including those by manner of Live Stream, or as a detailed full length pre-recorded episode. Many, many thanks for your frequently thankless work!!! Cheers, mates!
The details and the wood texture reminds me of the ambitious work of Red Dead redemption 2. Rdr2 especially in Sanit Deanis there's such a grandness such as in the movie theater or the mayor's manor. Especially reminds me of the river boat
1:45:27 To that point, I've often felt that if people were to travel from Edwardian times to 111 years into the future, undoubtably the first thing they would comment on is how poorly dressed everyone is today. There is some part of me that wishes that at least in some situations, people today would have a bit more decorum. How you presented yourself to the world was a reflection of your character and your self respect. It was a way of respecting others, showing them you cared enough to look nice. If you watch old films of those time periods, even the poorest people in the street were wearing a suit. I'm staying at a reasonably nice hotel in downtown LA right now and forget that half the people getting breakfast were in sweats, there was one guy and his 3 daughters who came down in straight up pajamas and slippers. They just rolled out of bed, took the elevator down to a very nice breakfast lounge and showed up that way. Guy was in a stained white tank top, pajama pants, bare feet and slippers. His daughters were all in pajamas. Now I was in casual clothes, nice but casual and I couldn't help thinking that even 50 years ago the staff would have kindly asked that family to return to their room and breakfast would be served to them there. 50 years ago people would have been glaring at me no doubt. Call it snooty, call it pretentious but there are certain circumstances where I really wish more people were required to dress the part.
Who new Titanics gymnasium was so... erotic? When they were describing what the different machines did you could see Mike trying so hard to keep his cool 😂😂 The rest of the live was a lot more clean and I loved it so much, the amount of detail in this is amazing and it has such good graphics
1962, 15, female, I ran a switchboard on a Cunard ship, at the time you had to be a member of the merchant marines and a friend and I took a Greyhound bus to New York and did so, my Grandmother ran cover to my parents. I'd learned the switchboard when I filled in for a sick girl in my next door neighbor's legal firm while on Cmas break. Asked the operator to teach me. Lotta European kids there, never Americans. I had a "white. collar" job. PBX board locked like that one. Came in handy !
Just started watching, as I was unable to do so live. Great video so far; I’m thoroughly enjoying it! Edit: Just finished. The information in this is absolutely phenomenal! I learned so much and I’m so impressed by all the talent involved in this project.
Hey Mike, longtime watcher of your channel. Was curious if you’d possibly be able to do a video on the Oceanic? The one that was never built. Only it’s keel was laid, and would have been white star lines biggest ship to date. Always wondered what would have been. Maybe a running mate with the Queen Mary. Or competition.
The white paint used in the dining saloon on d deck the walls actually were a cream like off white or antique white the ceiling was actually a light ivory it allowed the light fixtures when lit to make the space to appear like its glowing but a soft ambience for dinning to make it seem brighter for bulbs of that time were not so bright so the paint bounced the light
I have to say, I found your channel several days ago. I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos daily before work. Your knowledge of Titanic and her design is something that is awe inspiring. Oh, and you have nice neck ties as well :)
This is awesome! It would be sooo cool if you all could narrate what we're seeing from the Titanic wreck footage that's out there. I agree that the wreckage field is where all the ship and people come alive.
The equipment within the gym is very odd to say the least but this is also around the time that many people still slept sitting up in bed and not flat on their backs because sleeping upward was thought to be better for your health. To be honest, I actually didn't know that until I learned about it a few weeks ago on the History Channel. Lol
I'm watching 6 months after the stream :D It's fascinating. It's the details that I like--the bare metal walls, but also that there are gratings that run on the floor along them to catch any water that might end up coming in (eep!). I mean it's logical, it's a ship after all, but it's just details that I'd never really think about or visualise. Very well done :) Edit: the gymnasium is amazing. JUST SHAKE THAT GOUT OUT
One thing Ismay did on the Carpathia was contact the White Star offices in NY and ask them to hold this other ship, the Cedric, until he and the crew came, so they could go back home to England as soon as possible. He signed his message "Yamsi": his last spelled backwards. The actual reason for that message was to evade American jurisdiction before any investigation could be started. The American warship Chester intercepted his message and relayed it to Congress where a subcommittee to look into the matter was quickly formed and its members, headed by Sen. William Alden Smith, promptly went to New York where they strode aboard the Carpathia and succeeded at subpoenaing Ismay. He was to appear in court, not within a few days, let alone a full week: the following day. That was Sen Smith's subcommittee's way of serving swift justice
..And THAT'S the THG team...They're after every rivets. .tell your dearest wife about it sometimes...And it not 110 years old. .She was actually launched into water 112years ago & was on her maiden voyage 111 years ago... .
It is very striking how claustrophobic it feels at times. Low ceilings and very little signage. It must have been a nightmare to get around. Passengers trying to get to the boat deck must have found it very difficult.
I don't know if this has been mentioned here before, but here's a quick addendum about the fitness equipment in the gymnasium: The Wiesbaden-based company Rossel, Schwarz & Co. from Germany, founded in 1897, secured the licences for the production of Gustav Zander's equipment and produced it exclusively, starting in 1901 in the production halls in Mainzer Straße in Wiesbaden. They also supplied the gymnastics equipment for the Titanic. A little side note: I live in Wiesbaden, not far from the street mentioned. Unfortunately, the factory buildings no longer exist today. Instead, Wiesbaden has one of the best-preserved cityscapes from the turn of the century with numerous preserved historic residential and public buildings. At the end of the 19th century, Wiesbaden developed into an important spa town, attracting emperors, kings and other high-ranking people to the city every year.
That empty area at the First Class entrance is adjacent to the private promenades of the most expensive suites with access doors visible on both sides. I like to think that those doors could be opened and that area could be used for private parties for the elite guests to extend their promenades for private events. The suites were large but they would never want guests in their bedrooms and the parlors are small.
Speaking of the bow. I've never seen any footage of what's down in the cargo hold. The hatch is blown off so it would be easy to send a ROV down inside. Has anyone seen any footage from that area?
Unfortunately, I don't own a PC anymore (no need) and so I've had to rely on RUclips videos to experience THG/Demo/Project 401. Thankfully, in doing that, I've seen every space aboard the Titanic that THG has to offer and still continue to watch videos posted (much like this one) of people navigating the program because, like most folks here, I am absolutely obsessed with the Titanic (as well as other liners and ships) and have been my entire life; She was even discovered a month after I was born so I've had a very long time now for that obsession to grow, ESPECIALLY with the three Olympic class sisters. To be able to step aboard the Titanic has always been something I've dreamed about/yearned for, which seemed extremely unrealistic for obvious reasons, and I am so, so thankful for the team who put THG together and the INSANE amount of work they've put into it and STILL continue putting into it; They gave us the ability to finally step aboard the ship, walk her decks, ascend/descend the grand staircase, enter her incredible rooms, and explore so much more than we could have previously imagined possible. I honestly didn't expect this to ever happen and, as years and decades passed, had practically given up hope that it would. I recently read that THG was available on Xbox One and I was very excited but I got on mine and couldn't find it which lead me to believe the article was sadly wrong. I don't have a need for a PC but I've been considering buying one anyhow, just for this, because watching other people navigate the program is interesting but exploring the ship MYSELF would obviously be a trillion times more fulfilling.
I greatly admire your work (all of you involved in this project) the effort that went in to so meticulously create this is impressive and it's clearly a worthy endeavour for scientific historical and nerd passion reasons. I personally don't care about the ship but I enjoyed this livestream a lot and I look forward to the thousand part livestream series talking about the ship.
1:49:35 I appreciate your talking about the manners of the day. It’s hard to really get the flavor of an era just from movies because a lot of times they’ll sacrifice accuracy for the sake of convenience. There’s a really cool book called How to be a Victorian which was written by a historian who does a lot of re-enactments and it was really eye opening to get the perspective of someone who’s lived and worked in the clothes of the era instead of putting it on as a costume for an hour or two. I haven’t found anything comparable for the Edwardian era yet, but I’m looking.
If you’ve ever worked doing banquets for hundreds of people it makes you wonder how they dealt with the sheer quantity of food waste and trash. They messed up a lot of dishes! What a grueling job those scullions had!
Corsets get a mention in the gym - just pointing out that working class women wore them too, you can exercise and do heavy labour in them without any problem. Tightlacing is the equivalent of wearing extreme pointe heels - you won't be able to run a marathon.
This is seriously amazing!! Love how in depth you guys go talking about the information about the Titanic. I found out something cool!! This hotel named The White Swan Hotel in Alnwick, Northumberland, England. There restaurant is called The Olympic Restaurant cause the dinning room is from the first class dinning area from the actual ship. Other things from the Olympic are in this hotel as well :)
Thanks so much for your lovely comments and super chats, apologies I did not get to approach them all but as always I hugely appreciate your support and interest :) Thanks for watching!

this is absolutely remarkable the level of expertise just in this video, thank you making us feel like we spent the day on the titanic!

Overinteresting and fun as usual, I could listen at you guys all day. Thanks a lot
Really interesting. I could listen to Matt and Kyle talk about the ship all day. The six-hour developer stream they did recently was incredible.
Here's why the Titanic's story will never die: (1) she was the world's biggest movable man-made object of her day, (2) she excelled in luxury, (3) she was on her maiden voyage (of all voyages), (4) there were many celebrities of the day on board, (5) there was already a lot of talk about all her features before she was ever launched (including the whole "unsinkability" talk), and (6) the Titanic is regarded as the first ship in living memory to be sunk by an iceberg. The Titanic shall always be in our minds despite herself; unlike the ship itself, the story remains unsinkable
The other thing is what makes it so tragic: the fact that such a disaster could have so easily been prevented.
@@missagente8100 That's beyond all doubt
@@missagente8100 Also as Eva Hart so wisely said "it will go down in history as the one disaster where there was no need for anyone to die"

Next thing this computer model needs is NPCs to populate it out and make it seem less of a ghost ship. Those spaces would have been full of people, chatter and the smell of expensive perfumes and cigar smoke. Alive, not sterile.
Beautiful work!
I think you should drink from a Titanic cup and saucer just to create the ambience. Really enjoyed this.
Ninety nine parts? I’m in for it. Let’s go.
Sorry I missed the livesream Mike . Was in a meeting . Incredibly impressed by the details learned about the Turkish Bath and Gymnasium and even the swimming pool on Titanic . Kudos to you and the rest of the team involved in this exquisite recreation of the Titanic . Very proud indeed .
Great video man!
Thanks for joining Sam!
Oh I hate I missed this! AMAZING WORK FROM EVERYONE! I can’t even imagine this under taking. A couple years ago, I was able go to the Titanic museum in Pigeon Forge and got to see some small cuts of rug brought up from the wreckage. Also, soooo lucky to see the Hartley violin in person.
Thank you for bringing the glory of the Titanic to life, and thank you for the amazing tour guidance!
This was awesome! I'd love to see you maybe talk about the illegal salvage of warships in the pacific. It's a big story you probably already know about. Workers find skulls and bones in steel pieces and they say all the steel smells like burnt flesh when they cut it with a torch.
Titanic 2 engine oil
Amazing stream had so much fun
The slight delay is no hardship for viewers, you are all charming and the information is FASCINATING
Is it just me or is anyone else getting a giggle watching Mike turn read af hearing how Dr Zander "equipment" works 🤣🤣🤣
thank you so muck mike that was awesome!
keep up the good work!
Mike Brady with the THG team walking through THG. Doesn't get any better than this. Goes together like peas and carrots.
Thanks for the hours and hours of your tedious labor to produce the interiors and this stream in particular, but yeah, I really, really am disappointed that the staterooms and other first-class areas of the ship are missing here. ... one hopes you can do a similar detailed tour in future including those by manner of Live Stream, or as a detailed full length pre-recorded episode. Many, many thanks for your frequently thankless work!!! Cheers, mates!
The details and the wood texture reminds me of the ambitious work of Red Dead redemption 2. Rdr2 especially in Sanit Deanis there's such a grandness such as in the movie theater or the mayor's manor. Especially reminds me of the river boat
1:45:27 To that point, I've often felt that if people were to travel from Edwardian times to 111 years into the future, undoubtably the first thing they would comment on is how poorly dressed everyone is today. There is some part of me that wishes that at least in some situations, people today would have a bit more decorum. How you presented yourself to the world was a reflection of your character and your self respect. It was a way of respecting others, showing them you cared enough to look nice. If you watch old films of those time periods, even the poorest people in the street were wearing a suit.
I'm staying at a reasonably nice hotel in downtown LA right now and forget that half the people getting breakfast were in sweats, there was one guy and his 3 daughters who came down in straight up pajamas and slippers. They just rolled out of bed, took the elevator down to a very nice breakfast lounge and showed up that way. Guy was in a stained white tank top, pajama pants, bare feet and slippers. His daughters were all in pajamas. Now I was in casual clothes, nice but casual and I couldn't help thinking that even 50 years ago the staff would have kindly asked that family to return to their room and breakfast would be served to them there. 50 years ago people would have been glaring at me no doubt.
Call it snooty, call it pretentious but there are certain circumstances where I really wish more people were required to dress the part.
Saw a picture of how the pool on the Britannic was supposed to look. Much better looking than the Titanic's pool room.
Who new Titanics gymnasium was so... erotic? When they were describing what the different machines did you could see Mike trying so hard to keep his cool 😂😂 The rest of the live was a lot more clean and I loved it so much, the amount of detail in this is amazing and it has such good graphics
1962, 15, female, I ran a switchboard on a Cunard ship, at the time you had to be a member of the merchant marines and a friend and I took a Greyhound bus to New York and did so, my Grandmother ran cover to my parents. I'd learned the switchboard when I filled in for a sick girl in my next door neighbor's legal firm while on Cmas break. Asked the operator to teach me. Lotta European kids there, never Americans. I had a "white. collar" job. PBX board locked like that one. Came in handy !
Gymnasium : « what a horrifying room! »
Totally agree 😂
Awesome stream🎉🎉🎉🎉
Reminds me of the ship in Southampton historic docks. I've forgotten the name but it's huge and the first half sail/engineering ship.
Love how you gave sam a shout out at historic travels I love him too, excellent video. Always a pleasure to watch both of y'all's content 🙏
Just started watching, as I was unable to do so live. Great video so far; I’m thoroughly enjoying it!
Edit: Just finished. The information in this is absolutely phenomenal! I learned so much and I’m so impressed by all the talent involved in this project.
Starts at 1:15
Enjoyed this very much. Would absolutely love another live stream with all of these lovely guests again
What a fantastic voyage thank you
Hey Mike, longtime watcher of your channel. Was curious if you’d possibly be able to do a video on the Oceanic? The one that was never built. Only it’s keel was laid, and would have been white star lines biggest ship to date. Always wondered what would have been. Maybe a running mate with the Queen Mary. Or competition.
More of these please, this was fantastic! 🎉
Mike Brady! My best-good boat friend!!!
The white paint used in the dining saloon on d deck the walls actually were a cream like off white or antique white the ceiling was actually a light ivory it allowed the light fixtures when lit to make the space to appear like its glowing but a soft ambience for dinning to make it seem brighter for bulbs of that time were not so bright so the paint bounced the light
Superb! So realistic.
I have to say, I found your channel several days ago. I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos daily before work. Your knowledge of Titanic and her design is something that is awe inspiring.
Oh, and you have nice neck ties as well :)
I’m sure the ladies loved a lot of the workout machines on Olympic and titanic lmao. Lot of em just vibrating you around.
This is awesome! It would be sooo cool if you all could narrate what we're seeing from the Titanic wreck footage that's out there. I agree that the wreckage field is where all the ship and people come alive.
Switchboard! Marconi tubes! Fascinating! 😁
I really want more programs like Titanic: Honor & Glory for other long-lost ocean liners, like Lusitania, Mauretania, Normandie, Aquitania, and more.
I'd love to see the Honor and Glory team create a model of the wreck some day.
possible with the recent scan
The equipment within the gym is very odd to say the least but this is also around the time that many people still slept sitting up in bed and not flat on their backs because sleeping upward was thought to be better for your health. To be honest, I actually didn't know that until I learned about it a few weeks ago on the History Channel. Lol
Can't wait for another one. Can listen to this history of transatlantic oceanliners for many hours.
I'm watching 6 months after the stream :D It's fascinating. It's the details that I like--the bare metal walls, but also that there are gratings that run on the floor along them to catch any water that might end up coming in (eep!). I mean it's logical, it's a ship after all, but it's just details that I'd never really think about or visualise. Very well done :)
Edit: the gymnasium is amazing. JUST SHAKE THAT GOUT OUT
One thing Ismay did on the Carpathia was contact the White Star offices in NY and ask them to hold this other ship, the Cedric, until he and the crew came, so they could go back home to England as soon as possible. He signed his message "Yamsi": his last spelled backwards. The actual reason for that message was to evade American jurisdiction before any investigation could be started. The American warship Chester intercepted his message and relayed it to Congress where a subcommittee to look into the matter was quickly formed and its members, headed by Sen. William Alden Smith, promptly went to New York where they strode aboard the Carpathia and succeeded at subpoenaing Ismay. He was to appear in court, not within a few days, let alone a full week: the following day. That was Sen Smith's subcommittee's way of serving swift justice
omg i have been sleeping under rock i did not know this existed i cant wait to play with this
52:34 bookmark 😊
Hey Bro great work. Keep up this great content. Its truly a masterpiece.🙏🙏😍
Greetings from India.
Very well presented. Informative, insightful, entertaining and educational...
the gym is the best part and I'd love more spa room. you've never heard of the kegurlator... I'm sorry, the ab machine.
I could watch it. this all-day.
My wife: they are discussing nuances of white paint on a 110-year-old ship for 3 fucking hours? How long of it did you watch?
Me: Yes
..And THAT'S the THG team...They're after every rivets. .tell your dearest wife about it sometimes...And it not 110 years old. .She was actually launched into water 112years ago & was on her maiden voyage 111 years ago... .
They probably meant that parts of the wood coverings over the metal framing could have floated out, not the whole infrastructure of the stairwell.
It is very striking how claustrophobic it feels at times. Low ceilings and very little signage. It must have been a nightmare to get around. Passengers trying to get to the boat deck must have found it very difficult.
I could listen to this man forever ❤
I don't know if this has been mentioned here before, but here's a quick addendum about the fitness equipment in the gymnasium:
The Wiesbaden-based company Rossel, Schwarz & Co. from Germany, founded in 1897, secured the licences for the production of Gustav Zander's equipment and produced it exclusively, starting in 1901 in the production halls in Mainzer Straße in Wiesbaden. They also supplied the gymnastics equipment for the Titanic. A little side note: I live in Wiesbaden, not far from the street mentioned. Unfortunately, the factory buildings no longer exist today. Instead, Wiesbaden has one of the best-preserved cityscapes from the turn of the century with numerous preserved historic residential and public buildings. At the end of the 19th century, Wiesbaden developed into an important spa town, attracting emperors, kings and other high-ranking people to the city every year.
That empty area at the First Class entrance is adjacent to the private promenades of the most expensive suites with access doors visible on both sides. I like to think that those doors could be opened and that area could be used for private parties for the elite guests to extend their promenades for private events. The suites were large but they would never want guests in their bedrooms and the parlors are small.
It would be like a dream to me play this game and just walk around the Titanic.... Please make it real!
last room is fuckin insane bro,looks real in their demo,amazing job
It looks Great for being underwater over 100 years...🤪🍻🍻🍻
Wow awesome ,so fascinating travelling around the titanic and seeing how it might of actually looked .
Well done guys I think your pretty spot on .
Looking forward for all 99 live tours, lol! Thanks! Awesome work!
Speaking of the bow. I've never seen any footage of what's down in the cargo hold. The hatch is blown off so it would be easy to send a ROV down inside. Has anyone seen any footage from that area?
Unfortunately, I don't own a PC anymore (no need) and so I've had to rely on RUclips videos to experience THG/Demo/Project 401. Thankfully, in doing that, I've seen every space aboard the Titanic that THG has to offer and still continue to watch videos posted (much like this one) of people navigating the program because, like most folks here, I am absolutely obsessed with the Titanic (as well as other liners and ships) and have been my entire life; She was even discovered a month after I was born so I've had a very long time now for that obsession to grow, ESPECIALLY with the three Olympic class sisters.
To be able to step aboard the Titanic has always been something I've dreamed about/yearned for, which seemed extremely unrealistic for obvious reasons, and I am so, so thankful for the team who put THG together and the INSANE amount of work they've put into it and STILL continue putting into it; They gave us the ability to finally step aboard the ship, walk her decks, ascend/descend the grand staircase, enter her incredible rooms, and explore so much more than we could have previously imagined possible. I honestly didn't expect this to ever happen and, as years and decades passed, had practically given up hope that it would.
I recently read that THG was available on Xbox One and I was very excited but I got on mine and couldn't find it which lead me to believe the article was sadly wrong. I don't have a need for a PC but I've been considering buying one anyhow, just for this, because watching other people navigate the program is interesting but exploring the ship MYSELF would obviously be a trillion times more fulfilling.
Ever since that day when grandma and grandpa got the national geographic of Ballard finding her iv been like wow ever since 85🫡
I,m pretty sure I posted a link to tis some time ago in this channel. regardless this is freaking AWESOME
I greatly admire your work (all of you involved in this project) the effort that went in to so meticulously create this is impressive and it's clearly a worthy endeavour for scientific historical and nerd passion reasons. I personally don't care about the ship but I enjoyed this livestream a lot and I look forward to the thousand part livestream series talking about the ship.
1:49:35 I appreciate your talking about the manners of the day. It’s hard to really get the flavor of an era just from movies because a lot of times they’ll sacrifice accuracy for the sake of convenience. There’s a really cool book called How to be a Victorian which was written by a historian who does a lot of re-enactments and it was really eye opening to get the perspective of someone who’s lived and worked in the clothes of the era instead of putting it on as a costume for an hour or two. I haven’t found anything comparable for the Edwardian era yet, but I’m looking.
If you’ve ever worked doing banquets for hundreds of people it makes you wonder how they dealt with the sheer quantity of food waste and trash. They messed up a lot of dishes! What a grueling job those scullions had!
Corsets get a mention in the gym - just pointing out that working class women wore them too, you can exercise and do heavy labour in them without any problem.
Tightlacing is the equivalent of wearing extreme pointe heels - you won't be able to run a marathon.
Can't wait for part 2
This is seriously amazing!! Love how in depth you guys go talking about the information about the Titanic. I found out something cool!! This hotel named The White Swan Hotel in Alnwick, Northumberland, England. There restaurant is called The Olympic Restaurant cause the dinning room is from the first class dinning area from the actual ship. Other things from the Olympic are in this hotel as well :)
