I love seeing somebody as young as you taking an interest in things like this. When I was in Jr. High back in the stone age, I was very interested in the Titanic myself. Back then, we didn't know she broke in half, so it has been interesting watching our knowledge of the disaster grow and change over the years. I think it is important to keep our history and learn from it (without a bunch of biased politics distorting it). It is young people like you that are going to help make that happen. Keep up the good work!

I know they are considerably smaller but the Royal Navy had two identical destroyers that lost almost half of the bow and aft sections respectively and what did they do?

A lot of people don't fully realize just how remarkable it was that the Titanic remained upright and mostly stable as she sank. Most other ships in this situation would have capsized, which would have likely trapped people within the ship, and caused her to sink faster.

That was probably thanks to the weight of the coal they shifted in the bunker that had the fire. Several passengers noted a slight list to port the day the fire was put out and computer simulations have shown that without that, she might've capsized to starboard.

The way Titanic sunk makes it such legendary. Even after her final way to the bottom, after going down more than 2,5 kilomteres to the ocean deck, her bow sits there as if she was ready for a cruise. She was sinking over 2,5 hours, mostly steady on keel untill stern broke off, on sea so quiet there were no waves, the sky was so clear and full of stars and yet so many people perished

The water did reach the door zone until around 1:40 a.m. Survivors reported that the bow and the well deck only disappeared into the water shortly before 2 a.m. and that, given the inclination of the ship, was about the time the door must have been completely sunk. With a size of 2.6 m², the door had twice the area of the suspected iceberg damage of 1.3 m² and the open door increased the flooding of the ship by a factor of 3! It is relatively easy to mathematically calculate when the door was flooded by using two different sink rates, one before the door was flooded and one after it. Before that, the average rate of descent was 8-10 cm per minute; after the door was flooded, it increased by a factor of 3 to approx. 25-30 cm per minute. The distance between the sea level when the door was submerged and the bridge was around 7 meters. So when the door was completely submerged, the navigation bridge only protruded approx. 7 meters above the water level and the forward welldeck was already clearly flooded. 7 meters divided by 25 centimeters accelerated rate of descent as a result of the open door result in about 28. 28 minutes! So after the open door was completely flooded, the ship still had 28 minutes before the outer waterline reached the bridge - in very simplified terms. As is well known, the water reached the bridge at around 2:10 a.m. This time minus 28 minutes gave us the time 1:41 a.m. In summary, this means that the lowering could have been slowed down considerably if the door had been closed completely. The ship would not have sunk by 25 centimeters per minute over these last 7 meters, but more slowly, perhaps per only 8-10 centimeters. So the last twenty to thirty minutes of the sinking could have been delayed almost twice as long, i.e. about 45-55 minutes longer. Of course, this calculation does not take into account the additional open portholes, the flooded welldeck or the foredeck, through which additional water flowed in and we dont know the number of open portholes. Personally, I think the closed door could have let survive the Titanic until about 2:40 a.m. to 2:50 a.m. It would have add additional time to the disaster to get more surviving stories, but it would not have made much affect to the number of casualties. Maybe Boat A and B could have beend launched properly but that would caused probably the death of significant survivors like Jack Thayer, Colonel Gracie or Charles Joughin and Harold Bride. No way these additional 30 minutes could have made much difference until 4.10 AM, when Carpathia finally arrived.

Thanks. I have always wondered about this.
I love the Titanic documentary ! thank you
I have always wondered if boiler room 5, being the least damaged compartment, might have flooded more slowly if the watertight doors aft had been used like dam gates. If the door between boiler room 5 and 4 were opened only about a quarter inch, the influx of water would only reach as high as the door sill before spilling into the adjacent room. Then, if the next watertight door were to do the same, it would spill over the sill again and so on, and each time the rate of the water level rising would have been slowed accordingly. The first 5 compartments may have been filled, but as long as boiler room 5 did not flood, the watertight bulkhead between it and the bow might not have been overtopped. Even if the ship were to founder, such a method might have bought them additional time - perhaps long enough for Carpathia to reach the. For anyone good at differential equations, it would be an interesting formula to calculate.

I think the main issue was the failing of 5's bulkhead with 6. It failed massively according to Barrett who was in 5 when it happened and only barely managed to escape.
I should point out the Titanic's bow didn't have any tears in it from the collision it had a LOT of popped rivets and buckled shell plates. Now not making the coal bunker walls water tight IMO was a serious oversight.

Nice video I love history and have a great day
I just posted the wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald to Fb, and have posted it on the anniversary for the last 10 years, as it seems it’s lost to Father Time. There are 3 theories to her sinking, some discredited more than others. I was a boiler technician on the carrier USS Midway, a diesel fuel fed boiler system with 12 massive Bobcock+ Wilcox boilers. That aside, the big Fitz “as she was known” was a well known ship wreck of her time, next to the titanic and her sister ship. There’s a a few doc’s on the Big Fitz, you may have read or studied. As your youth by your video suggests, your were not born yet, I was 14 at that time. The sinking was 11/10/75. A side note to you….. the Great Lakes Ship Wreck museum, at Whitefish point in Michigan, is a MUST see. I go every year. Great work young man.
You’re the best!

Yet another fact I didn't know or realize!
The music is like background music for a Rick Steve’s travel review of Gatlinburg.
Titanic (and Olympic, for that matter) were arguably the safest ships of their time. It's very easy to point at her blueprints and compare her to modern cruise ships, but you have to remember, the older vessels in service at that time likely would not have faired nearly as well. For the record, icebergs have sunk ships as recently as 2007. Titanic wasn't the first, and nor was she the last. The bottom line is that no ship is designed to collide with icebergs at speed. She stayed not only afloat, but mostly level for nearly three hours. There are modern vessels that haven't faired as well with similar damage. Not that the video ever suggested it, nor have I seen any comments to this effect, but I will say that the idea that she was a flawed design is not based in reality. She was the best her builders could do at the time. Yes, she should have been carrying more lifeboats. ...but funny thing about that - given the rate they were able to launch her lifeboats, and the time when the last boat was launched, and you then compare that to when she finally went down, you would notice that if she had her as-designed full complement of lifeboats, she definitely would have sunk with boats still hanging in their davits. They arguably could have launched maybe one more boat, if they were quick about it, but that's about it. Long story short, there isn't one single factor that lead to the disaster. It was a combination of factors. Ships aren't designed to collide with things! Also, a note about the "head on" theory: At the time of her sinking, Titanic displaced (weighed) about 50,000ish tons. She struck the iceberg traveling at least 20 knots. There is evidence that suggests she likely struck at or very close to full speed, given the time it would take for the "all stop" order to actually be carried out while at sea in the middle of the Atlantic, but for sake of argument, lets be conservative and say she struck at 20 knots. 20 knots is roughly 23 mph. I'm no math whiz, but you ram 50,000 tons into anything at over 20mph, and you are going to have catastrophic damage. The collision would have been much more dramatic, certainly. I think she would have been damaged differently, but I suspect the outcome would have been largely the same. Thinking about the way the ship reacted to the glancing blow, what you will notice if you look at the evidence is that the rivets weren't sheered by the scraping as many people believe, but rather the joints in the plates were physically separated by the impact. Any rivets that popped were due to the joints separating violently, not necessarily by the ice sheering them off. The rivets at that level were actually hammered flush - there are extant photos that clearly show this detail. The damage Titanic sustained is worse than most people imagine it was. It is a testament to her design that she lasted as long as she did, as relatively level as she did. Had she capsized, the death toll could have been significantly worse.

Finally. Somebody else who realized they barely had time to launch the boats they did have. But wait, there's more: Even if they had enough boats and the time to launch them, they were working against the mindset of the people at the time, which is that nobody wanted to get into a life boat. I mean, why get lowered into the cold dark ocean in a tiny wooden boat when you could just stay on board a big, warm, brightly lit ship that cannot sink? Titanic did not have enough boats but even what boats it had did not all leave filled to capacity.

@@gregorymoore2877 Exactly. It was a maiden voyage. Even had there been a lifeboat drill, I think the outcome would largely have been the same - because no one would expect a brand-new, at the time state-of-the-art, ship to sink. The real cause of the disaster isn't really the design, it isn't really a failure of the crew. The people at the time were doing the best they could with the knowledge and resources they had available. Titanic, Olympic, Mauritania, et. al. and ships of their size, power, and capacity were unprecedented at that point in history. If you look at the largest ships in 1900 based on gross tonnage (interior volume), you see that over the span of about 10 years, the size of ships doubled! A decade or so before the disaster, there were still passenger ships in service that still carried sails! What caused the Titanic disaster? I would argue the true cause of the disaster was technology progressing faster than people's understanding of how to safely handle it. Thomas Andrews is an innocent man!

I don't recall hearing of the builders making any such claim and I've been into this for years. And, yes, Ships of that size were being built for the first time, so the physics were not well understood yet. I also agree the Titanic was a safe design and well built. It was just not properly handled due to the knowledge of how to properly handle a ship of that size not being gained yet. If anyone wants to question the seaworthiness of a ship due to design, I suggest a closer look at Lusitania and Mauretania.

I don't even think it was so much the media calling her "unsinkable." Compared to the warm, familiar liner, getting into the comparatively diminutive lifeboats and the inky black, ice-cold ocean would be frightening regardless. It's not very difficult to imagine the natural hesitation people would have.
Well done. A couple of other contributing factors: (1) the decks, even within the bulkhead protected spaces, were not watertight and (2) some of the watertight doors after being closed were re-opened for damage assessment (sounding) and left open.

I have studied Titanic in great detail over the years, and the best conclusion I have come up with is: if the tops of the watertight compartments had been sealed off with steel and welded shut as well as bolted, Titanic could have floated indefinitely so that the passengers and crew could have been rescued by other vessels coming to their aid.

The damage that occurred in Boiler Room 4 would have been below the Stokehold plates but above the double bottom. The Stokehold Plates are elevated 2.7ft above the Double Bottom indicating that the damage had to of been very small in order for water to take an hour and a half or so to become visible on top of the Stoke Hold Plates.

I was always asking myself how many people survived aprox zor was it possible to survive on Titanic's stern in those moments when the stern goes down finally and people are just waiting for that moment when its gonna sink totally. I am asking because of the suction. The same way it happened in the movie when Di Caprio and Kate stayed on the ship till the very last moment. Can you talk a little bit about that? Thanks
I tell people about Scotland Road all the time and they never heard of it ! But this is the first time I learned that water rolled down that hallway and helped to sink it faster ....I’d love for you to do a video on that ...
Hi. First, thank you for your relaxed and welcoming style. It is obvious to me that what you do originates from a genuine interest. A great mix of what you know and what you think. That said, my question to you is: What do we really know about the damage the collision with the iceberg did? If I could make one wish it would be to see the real damage with my own eyes. I do not know what we would be able to see regarding the original damage, having in mind a lot could have happened on impact with the seabed. But wouldn’t it be something if we could excavate the starboard side of the bow?

Make a video on what happened to TITANIC middle section and how the big chunks landed on the bottom
My friend... in the JC video, the E-deck door was closed by official M.Lightoller.. :)
There was mentioning of there being a surge at some point, like the ship taking a big surge and a muffled explosion below decks, I'm wondering what that was about do you reckon there was a main bulkhead failure? I saw it somewhere
I saw the video you mentioned in this one. It's on KZread. The lady in the clip was a nanny looking for the little girl she was bringing back to the States. I thought it was a pretty good video. No video can be accurate, since none of us were there, and even eyewitnesses couldn't see everything. (Jan Griffiths).
I had no idea that Scottland Road did not have watertight doors installed within that passageway.
The last bulkhead was the one that had the bunker fire. Tons of water doesn’t care about feelings. About the door. Once the waterline gets that high it does not matter on a ship like titanic.
I'd like you to cover the Estonia sinking compared to Titanic if possible
What if the D-Deck Gangway Door was never opened?
Wow
I had NO idea that the gangway Door may have let in more water than the iceberg damage! I just scared my coworkers with my gasp
I didn't read every comment but does anyone know of the documentary Sam is talking about here? There's a really good one called saving the Titanic about the engineering stokers and firemen but I don't recall that scene in it. Is this a different one? Thanks much!
I never understand the water tight door going up to E deck thing....does that mean they have water tight doors at every level up to E deck that can be shut from the bridge?
Where did you buy your Titanic model
Scotland Road is a real road that exists in Liverpool England. It used to be a built up residential area, but is now a main road into the city of Liverpool. So Scotland road was named after this real road, not forgetting that the ship was registered in the city of Liverpool.
If the gangway door had been left shut how much time is it estimated would the sinking would have been delayed?
Would the d deck gangway door being shut add more time for the ship to stay afloat did the door being open make the titanic sink quicker?
It's good the coal bunker fire episode is being closely examined now. Some big happened about an hour into the event and accelerated the sinking and it was it giving way but it didn't explode due to heat though may have been heat damaged. The Britannic sank quickly. I think this was because the couldn't close the watertight doors.

The power was cut on impact and some of the doors due to the blast jammed
Scotland Road is the big road next to all the docks in Liverpool
Where did u get your mini model from as I’d love one
