    Quite often the same thing happens to small /fragile items after a tornado levels a home. Many times people have found these types of items after their home was totally demolished, and they find glasses or plates totally untouched. (Jan Griffiths).

Yes this two ships even tho were "sisters" they had little bit different interior layout, but after Titanic sunk, they modernized Olympic to have layout much more similar to the one of titanic, so it would be still a great representation of what it looked like.

    I'm reminded of violent tornado damage -- sometimes, entire houses are swept clean off foundations while others mere yards away are relatively untouched. A house can be totaled but its fancy porcelain dinner set is still perfectly stacked and unchipped in sagging cabinets, much like stacks of plates still intact on the Titanic. Wind and water are different destructive elements yet we find so many similar odd remnants in their wake. It's humbling to reconstruct these moments and try to understand it.

    Depending on who’s account you listened to there is even more to the Strauss’ story than Ida staying in spite of being offered a spot on a boat. Many first class men ended up in boats with their wives and according to several sources Ida AND Isidore were offered a seat by Murdoch and Isidore turned it down, saying that while there were still women, children and young men with their whole lives ahead of them aboard, he, an old and wealthy man who’d lived a full, prosperous, happy life with the woman he loved and a family he adored, simply could not take a seat in a boat until they’d all been evacuated. After this Ida was offered her place by Lightoller as we see in the movie and turns it down to stay with her husband. Some sources say she’d originally tried to convince Isidore to board the lifeboat they were both offered a seat in, with him steadfastly refusing to do so as being a coward in God’s eyes by using his societal influence and wealth to live while others died was simply out of the question. Other sources say she supported his decision from the get-go, and others still say that Isidore was never offered a seat with his wife at all. In any case the honor and bravery those two had and their steadfast devotion to each other, as well as their faith in god, should be an inspiration to us all.

    Video idea: How would Titanic have looked at night (lighting) VS how it looks at night in Cameron’s film and documentaries? What type of light bulbs were used? I read an article earlier talking about how dim the lighting actually was, and how it would’ve had a yellow/orange glow. Also, since it was under-booked and most people were asleep, I assume many of the portholes would’ve been dark (especially in 1st class). Some say passengers would’ve left their lights on after leaving the cabins to go to lifeboats, but there are disagreements. Also, there were no fixed funnel lights so they would not have been lit. I’ve always been obsessed with Titanic and I’ve wondered my entire life what the ship would’ve looked like that night.

Yes it was still a yellow light, but to the eyes of the time it was a white light.

    With Isidor and Ida Strauss story, the detail that always breaks my heart a bit more than it already does is the fact that they stayed together til the very end, (most likely) not even once did they get separated. There is a lot of survivor's testimony of them getting help from either Isidor or ida. They chose to stay onboard, yet they helped other people get into the lifeboats. Anytime I read a story of a survivor and they mentioned spotting Isidor and Ida together, holding each other in a comforting hug, it kills me. They seemed like such good people.

    Considering most lifeboats left half full, 1 with only 12 aboard when it could hold 65, they easily could have survived without taking spots away from anyone else. But Isidor may have known he'd be criticized for surviving when so many women and children perished, like William Carter and Bruce Ismay, and that would hurt the company brand! Or it was a matter of pride and honor, perhaps, that he didn't want to leave others behind!

If that glassware was designed to go along with that mirror/vanity in a set, then perhaps there is some sort of indentation that it was designed to slot into from added stability in high seas... Also, not being able to think of any more probable alternatives, I would agree with your conclusion about the time displayed on the clock.

    The dogs went down with the ship. They died like dogs. On the other hand, pigs and chickens were found floating on the water unharmed the next day, still in their wooden cages. They always survive shipwrecks. And this demonstrates why we sailors get a chicken tattooed on our right foot instep and a pig tattooed on our left foot instep. So that we won't drown if the ship goes down.

    Love your videos! I've been a Titanic fanatic since I was 9, but I'm still learning a lot from channels such as yours and Oceanliner Designs. The Straus' story is very sad indeed, though a very noble decision by both. I wish you would've included that Isidor was also offered a spot in the lifeboat as well. However Isidor adamantly refused, as there were women and children still not on lifeboats. “I will not go before the other men”, he stated. Then it led to Ida saying, “We have lived together for many years. Where you go, I go”...40 years together, what a love story til the very end.

    For me it’s so hard to look at the wreck of titanic not just because of the amount of life lost and the brutality of it all, but also because the ship is just so beautiful inside and out that it’s a shame that on her maiden voyage she plummeted 12500 feet down and is decaying into nothingness. Such a beautiful ship turned into a horror show, that in itself is hard to look at for me at least. I work on sports fishing yachts as a varnisher and to see such a grand and pretty ship go through what it did, is devastating to me. So many hours/hard work was put into that ship just for it to become what it is today on the sea floor, never able to travel through the ocean more than once. A tragedy indeed. Rip the people who suffered in that water that night, and rest in peace to that beautiful vessel

    completely random and interesting fact when James Cameron made the 1997 film with the B-Deck suite where Rose was, Cameron actually basically replicated the Strauss Suite unknowningly. he never knew he did it until "TITANIC: 20 Years Later" came out and in that film, he said that in one of his wreck dives, he actually found the Strauss Suite and might have took a picture of it and compared it to the set that was in the film, both were identical.

    The Strauss story is included in the movie, “A Night to Remember”. I say the clock was running right up to the point of submersion, which would give the exact time of the sinking. Those clocks had a balance wheel like a watch rather than a pendulum so the motion of the ship wouldn’t affect the running. Such a shame that we are going to eventually lose this ship completely. Great presentation!

    So I did some digging into Titanic's clocks, and long story short your right. So all of Titanic's clocks that were in passenger rooms and such were all slaves to a master clock somewhere on the ship that was kept to local mean time. That master clock (and all slaves dependent on it) died when the power went out. So it probably says something like 2:18-2:20, depending on when exactly the power went out and if the slow loss of power as the night went on caused the clocks to slow, but it's likely very close to 2:20 am

    Not quite. The slave clocks were driven by electrical impulses sent from the master clock, but the master clock itself was a mechanical clock, completely independent of the ship's electrical system. The master was driven by a 36 hour wound spring. That mechanicism actually generated the electrical impulses sent to the slave clocks by actuating a magneto. So when did the master clock stop? Who knows. It was probably still working until the water pressure imploded it's waterproof casing, but it wouldn't correspond with the ship losing power.

One was sold at auction in 2018. And it seems that you're right, my initial research said it was a type of electromechanical clock but didn't leave a name or model so I kinda assumed. This is what I get for having my most reliable research being a 2006 online form referring to dead links now held by Verizon. Anyways, with that said it's still likely to read around that time regardless given the violence of the impact with the ground, but as you said it was likely still ticking for some time post sinking.

    In the final word with James Cameron, they map the entire debris field and go over all the physics and hydraulics based on the new information of the degree field, how the bow got that compressed look, why the hatch ended up out there, why the stern looks like a bomb hit it and why other pieces of debris are thrown so absolutely far away from the main site. They also re-calculate the height of the angle of the stern sticking into the air as the ship sank and realised that it’s unlikely that it was anywhere near as pronounced as it appears in The 97 movie. They estimated that it would have broken between 12 and 20-ish degrees not the 40 or 45+ you see in the movie. The great loss is never being able to get down into the bottom of the ship to identify the iceberg damage, that being said, the damage of the iceberg glancing by would probably be nothing compare to the collision with the sea floor so it would be hard to tell what from what.

    That was by design. Cameron knew that other clinical films about TITANIC existed, his goal was to get the audience to feel the tragedy on a microcosmic level, by giving us two characters to love and care about, take us through the tragedy with them and then have one die. By feeling Jack's death we feel the deaths of everyone who died that night. The number, over 1,500, is a large and impersonal number, but, in Cameron's words, he created Jack and Rose to be a sort of lightning rod to capture the feeling of loss for us the audience.

    Congratulations on reaching 20,000 subscribers! I personally think why the jar did not fall of is that the cold water content that got into it, the air inside of the jar also cools down. This occurence of these circumstances, creates a slight vacuum that pulls the mouth of the jar towards the furniture more tightly. I also got a content idea which you can hopefully cover: The MV Doña Paz Disaster. This passenger vessel was said to be severely overloaded when it has collided with an oil tanker: Vector, on December 20, 1987. It was also considered the "Asia's Titanic" - and I would love if you can cover about it.
