I think the Titanic 2 has a serious business case, even if it just stayed as a floating museum, it could travel around the world to port cities. Guaranteed to be a huge hit wherever it stopped and you would never have to worry about it getting old for the locals since you'd just move it.

I toured the SS "United States" and attended the week long auction of its furnishings in 1984 at a pier in Norfolk, VA. She was the fastest liner ever built, with over four times the horsepower of the "Titanic" (being government subsidized as a potential military troopship). She's about a hundred feet longer, and slightly broader, but weighs less due to her aluminum superstructure. After being towed to Turkey where she was gutted and the asbestos used in her construction was removed, she was returned to Philadelphia where a group is trying to save her from the scrapyard. I have often thought it would have been easy to convert her into a "Titanic" replica due to the similarity in the size of both vessels. Modifying the sharply raked bow of the "United States" to look like the vertical bow of "Titanic" would bring her length down, and using only one of her two boiler rooms to power two of the four propellers would still allow her to make more speed than a modern cruise ship. I'd really love to see the "United States" preserved, in one form or another.

Here’s an idea: if you build a replica, don’t turn it into a cruise ship. Rather, turn it in a museum to show people what it was like for a lot of passengers struggles to escape the ocean liner. If you do it, do it in its birth place and do it by the company who originally built it (Harland & Wolff) the fee for the museum would go strictly to pay for maintenance of the museum and preservation of artifacts.

Since the Olympic was unfortunate in that it ended up as a victim of the Great Depression and got scrapped for its metal at a junkyard, but with an impeccable career as an oceanliner and troopship, would make it much more honorable as a service to recreate her. Also, following the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, the RMS Olympic went through a big refit as well. Including adding all the luxuries that Titanic had, like the Café Parisien etc. Knowing Titanic was about 1.000 tons heavier, but was soon equaled by Olympic during her refit.

There was a cruise remembering the 100th anniversary of the sinking that tried to sail on the exact days of Titanic’s maiden voyage and serving recreations of the first class menu in its restaurants but had to return to port only a day later because someone had a heart attack on the ship and, I believe, passed. Even James Cameron’s film ran into several issues: their food was somehow spiked with PCP sending both Cameron and Bill Paxton to the hospital, Kate Winslet got hypothermia and almost drowned, two stunt actors were almost crushed during the sinking scene, etc. I think it’s best to remember it for what it was - a tragedy - and not try to romanticize it by building a second Titanic or turn it into a theme park attraction.

As a history and Titanic nut, I would definitely visit it and sail on it.

I wholeheartedly agree. The Titanic is something I’ve spent my life researching about, and would do anything to stay or at least visit a replica with all the traditional fittings. However, who knows how feasible that would ever be. I’ve been to both the titanic museums, which as far as I’m aware are unfortunately the closest thing we have, but even those are nothing like you’d see in a true replica.

Thank you so much for doing this Historical piece! I had searched recently, to see if I could find any information on both of these projects. I actually also heard about a 3rd one, another landlocked one, that i had seen on Google maps, but i guess it was cancelled. I wanted to hear this, MAINLY because, it is THE OLYMPIC, that I treasure, and cared about. NOT the Titanic. I breaks my heart, that no one had the wisdom, the forsight, to preserve that gorgeous ship!!! It was nearly identical to the Titanic, and pictures of it were often used, to show people what the Titanic looked like, even for reference photos for the Titanic film. The beautiful staircase, the irreplaceable woodwork, etc., etc., all carelessly destroyed at a scrapyard!!!! It turns my stomach!!! But The Olympic ship is the real star, of this line, as she survived and thrived for so long, even with a couple of collisions in her history. She made so many happy memories, and helped our troops, during the war, too. I really wish that you would do a whole feature on her, if you haven't, already, and i wish she would be honored more often than the Titanic, because the Titanic, unfortunately, is a grave, a cemetery, for over 1,500 people, never had any successful history, and was merely heavily romanitcised in a largely fictional movie. I'm glad you featured it. (The Olympic). I love hearing anything about her, because that Ship is the one that should have been saved, and possibly still being run, today, as an historical ship, or at the very least, protected and preserved, forever, like The Queen Mary, on dry land as a treasure, a museum. I have spent tons of time, on the Queen Mary. I love it!!! Even pretending to be on a voyage, with my wonderful, fun mother!!! Thanks again!!! 😀

I had a whole nerd paragraph typed out here, then the 4 minute mark hit and it basically became a checklist. "Proper work began in 2012? Check.", "2016 maiden voyage plans? Double check." I haven't been obsessed with the Titanic and all it's goings-on since I was like, 12. I'm 20 now, and (probably due to that submarine) all of a sudden that little switch has been flicked back on. No matter the video, no matter how lengthy or in depth it is, I haven't been able to stop myself from clicking on it, and lo and behold, one of my favourite documentation channels already has a video on it.

I semi like the I deal of having a 1to1 replica of an Olympic class ship built in Maritime museum/park like they had with the queen Mary, just expanded. A walk through maritime history living museums and use the Cruse lines as floating hotels.

Would highly recommend visiting if youre ever in the area !

Obviously there was alot of renewed interest in the Titanic after the movie came out in the late 1998. Even in the early 2000"s their where rumors of a second Titanic ship that was virtually a replica of the original.

I would sail on it--wish they built ships like this again.

I completely agree with the complicated sentiments in this video. I would love to cross the Atlantic and sail into New York on RMS Titanic 2, but it’s also better to leave the great ship as a lesson of history. RIP RMS Titanic.

“Living National Treasure” is definitely going on my resume.

I think it should be rebuilt just as a museum rather than a theme park thing or tourist attraction or anything but as remembrance.

But seeing the delays did puzzle me and seeing Clive being the absolute lunatic that he is kinda worried me, but I STILL held on to hope that this would happen. I even got a Titanic II pin from some ausse seller on eBay and I treasured the hell out of it. To the point I would take a souvenir pin of a plane out of it’s little box and put the Titanic II pin in the box to preserve it. Nowadays I just roll my eyes and say to people ask me and I just say “no it’s not”. I remember at one point as well Clive Palmer actually criticised the Chinese government saying “the Chinese just shoot their own people” or something among those lines, granted he’s not exactly wrong.

Not a direct reply This is a maritime version of pie in the sky. Titanic was doomed to sink without trace, Titanic 2 was sunk before it was built. It is considered UNLUCKY to name a ship after a vessel which did not sink in battle. in order to possibly break the taboo why not name her TITANIQUE or TITANISCH?

For anyone that wants to get the tiniest glimpse on the original ''feel'' of the White Star Line ships, have a look at Daniel ''Danny'' Adamson tugboat. Supposedly when the Olympic was refitted in the early 1930's some of the original leftover panelling went to this little ship and into it's ''grand staircase look''. After a massive conservation effort this little tugboat is now sailing round the UK and honestly a lovely little glimpse into how amazing the decor and design was part of the Olympic-class ships.

It's a publicity stunt to cash in on the movie's current popularity". And every time it died and was resurrected, my belief was further reinforced. So this comes as no surprise to me. By the way, at 3:06, observe a tragic irony in the "Popular Mechanics" illustration: in the background, you can see the World Trade Center, and if you want a real chill along that same line, in that bad "Raise the TITANIC" movie, near the end, there is a scene where the resurrected TITANIC, entering New York Harbor, passes abeam of the WTC in the background. Considering history, it's positively eerie.

Pick up your cross and follow Jesus! The world is quickly headed for destruction, and sooner or later you will have to sit at the judgement seat and give an account for your actions. Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life! - Revelation 3:20. Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God tho. Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc and you should get a response. Have a blessed day!

I'll be honest, I would've saved and scrimped for a Southampton - NYC crossing on any rebuilt, modernized Titanic II. Probably brought a few "period appropriate" self-sewn outfits to wear on deck as well. If anything, that would bring me closer to that time and those people, to understanding what happened on that awful night. I don't get people who go on about how it's disrespectful and stuff, seriously. By that logic, the movie shouldn't exist either.

It all comes down to the fine line between telling a story about events and profiting from them. If it wasn't for her dramatic and horrific sinking, Titanic would probably have been overshadowed by her 'older sister' Olympic, there is an excellent 'what if' video on that by Oceanliner Designs here on youtube. So to create a Titanic II over say an Olympic II would be using the tragedy exclusively for financial gain.

“Horrifically gauche” seems to be the unifying theme of these _Titanic 2_ projects.

I am kinda bummed out about this. I kinda figured this would probably never happen. I remember being so hyped about this and writing and article about it in 5th or 6th grade.

If I were to have the resources to build a Titanic replica, I wouldn’t be doing anything like what have been tried so far. Rather, I would build one that’s an exact replica of the original, right down to the original number of lifeboats etc., but use it strictly only as a static, floating museum ship. It will still be technically seaworthy, with functional coal boilers and everything, but - as a mark of respect for those who lost their lives in the original tragedy - it will never accept any sailing passengers or set sail, but instead permanently docked at either the Southampton White Star Line Dock - where it sailed from - or Pier 34 at New York City, its original intended destination. There would also be at least one plaque on or near the entrance to the ship honouring the lives of those lost on the original ship, and the whole thing will be aimed more at educating people about Titanic’s history, the tragedy of the sinking, and the repercussions it had afterward on the survivors, the maritime industry, etc, rather than as some entertainment or theme park attraction. Basically, treating it with the respect it deserves, rather than belittling it as some cheap piece of entertainment.

I like the idea of a sailing museum of the once beautiful vessel but at the same time I feel it would be a bit of a smack in the face to those who tragically passed especially, if they were to ever sail over her final resting place, I genuinely think we should build an ocean liner similar to the three Olympic class ships but call it something different and have it be a sort of younger modern brother to the sisters that came before

When it comes to Titanic, people aren't gushing how they want so badly to ride in a copy of it. What people would dig on is a "Titanic Sinking Immersive Experience" of what it was like to be a 2nd or 3rd class passenger as it hit the iceberg and went down. Build that instead.

I think probably the best way to handle a concept like this while being respectful is to make a Titanic Museum. A few of those already exists, but never to full scale. But I don't know how successful a 1 to 1 replica would be, given most people would probably want to go on the deck, bow, living quarters, dinning rooms and the grand stair case... and that's about it. It would be too expensive to be supported by casual observers. Historians and fanatics(such as myself) would love to see something to scale, but at the end of the day, it would end up being a huge waste of money for any finacer.

Who would ever want to go on a cruise or ocean crossing on a “Titanic 2”? Could you imagine the prospect of it retracing the original Southampton to NYC route, and which cruise line would have the bad enough taste to even suggest it? The only way I’d ever step foot on it would be if it was just a replica that was permanently docked, like the Queen Mary in Long Beach. Some of my ancestors died on the Lusitania, so I prefer not to tempt fate.

As some have rightly pointed out; titanic was a tragedy. Real people, men, women and children died, it’s not something to be made into a tourist attraction . Now a replica Olympic class I could get behind, but give her a new name and make her a tribute to the whole class not just a cheap cash in on a century old tragedy.

No one's downplaying the severity of the loss and death that occured that day, but just because you were mortally involved in the incidental destruction of a property doesn't mean that it's mere likeness belongs with you in the grave. Example would be like as if I died driving a 2003 Jeep Cherokee, and someone like you would want people to not continue to drive the model of the car I drove out of respect, assuming that it's what Id even want as a dead person too or some shit; not asking others to replicate the vehicle or incident whatsoever. No that's stupid, of course that Jeep example is less specific than the literal Titanic; a ship that was one of a kind, but that doesn't denote my point. Honestly I think tragedy should be blanketed with a layer of acceptance and nihilistic happiness, and all that happens to me is a different form of expressing understanding, which is what I'm assuming you'd want people to do. As knowing what occured obviously paves more room for exhibiting empathy. But truthfully I think there's no benefit to exemplify the impact of horrific shit longer than you need to, the message is out there, and the sadness is there, and just because people don't choose display their realization of that outwardly with consistence doesn't mean it doesn't make those people not understand or care. And for those who are willing to trek under the covers and dive further into these kind of stories, they can, but just because they're spending more time acknowledging the depressing history, doesn't give them some right to nasal gazingly look down upon those others with resentment who chose instead to revel in the less negative side of things. You can get as graphically descriptive as you'd want about whatever event you're discussing, the person listening would reasonably be affected, or touched. But don't always assume that because it's gotten them to blankly stare out of the recognition of terror, or utter gods name out of the impact in reaction, that it means they know it's bad anymore than they had before. Also attractions are good way of educating people on the event through entertainment, and you're looking for empathy through understanding by probably wanting people to dig a little deeper, and well that's where you're going to get it. Hell that's where most of our greatest, serious lessons can come from, is entertainment. It's how they leave impressions on us is because the good is usually tempered with the heavy, sad/bad deep shit. Anyways Titanic II would've been cool, and the sub folks maybe should've invested some of their money into that instead of purchasing a glorified casket. Very tragic.

I hope this project is eventually completed in the near future! ❤️

It was never even started. This will not set sail. It will be a permanent attraction at a theme park . Titanic 2 is a hoax. Clive Palmer from Blue Star Line is a liar and a con man. He has been promising another Titanic for years and has never even started building anything. He releases bogus press releases about it every few years to get attention for himself. He already screwed over an entire town in a nickel mine scam and is now facing a 5 to 10 year prison term in a separate fraud case. Clive even once claimed that he was going to build a real Jurrassic Park, with real cloned dinosaurs. The one being built in China is a completely different project and will be a stationary vessel and a permanent part of a theme park there.

I wish someone would rebuild this ship. To see it’s true beauty would be a once in a lifetime opportunity. There are thousands of people that would love to see the interior and maybe even cruise the ocean on such a ship. I don’t care if there are cruise ships much bigger now, I want to see a replica in person.

I was beyond exited for this, so this is kinda heart breaking.

They really should build a replica of the Titanic but it should be permanently moored or in dry dock at the Titanic museum in Belfast.

Yeah, it would be like a hotel! That’s genius. The hotel employees are characters that come from 3rd to 1st class. Even maids and crew members would be there.

As someone who loves all things Titanic, it was great to see you cover this. Your work is always very informative and appreciated.
