The worst thing one can do is believe in the news I guess.

Regarding the idea that Captain Smith was drunk, it is worth noting that he had a rule to never drink while at sea, and survivors from his dinner party testified that he didn’t drink.

The second clip you show at 0:07 is actually of the sister ship ironically. This is a common mixup and that clip is the maiden voyage of the RMS Olympic, not the maiden voyage of Titanic. This was before the fire obviously and what led to the possibility of the fraud.

It wasn't even Olympic's maiden voyage, because a) it's departing from New York (which is why all the tug boats have mysterious negative scratches over where their home port should be written), and b) if you look carefully you can see the repairs made to the hull after the Hawke collision. Also Captain Smith is wearing the white summer uniform, not the black winter uniform.

Titanic never had time to be filmed or photograph, and the people always brought up the fire, and that mark on the outside of the hull is fresh paint reflecting thats having the shoreline reflecting off it I've been around many ships freshly painted and you see the same type of reflection and funny enough thats is actually where Titanics swimming pool was not the Cole bunker and who ever argues otherwise obviously dont know the layout of titanic and never look extensively into her blueprints

Some pointers: The Titanic, and most ships of the era, still used tiller commands. They were the standard since so many experienced sailors still used only those, so they were kept. Turning the ship starboard would mean turning the helm to port. This did not happen. Turning the wheel to starboard would turn the ship to port as intended. The coal fire was small and was long gone by the time of the collision. The more likely reason for the ship going at high speed was the presumed calm weather. There was little to no ice in sight, at least not in Titanic's way that anyone could see, and everything was super calm. As far as the crew knew, Titanic was in perfect sailing conditions with absolutely no hazards. The Captain ordered Murdoch and Lightoller to alert him at once should the weather change. The lifeboats on board were inadequate in terms of quantity, yes, but people tend to forget that the ship sank before all of the boats could even be launched. Launching the boats was a very slow process. It was all manual. Titanic didn't have the automatic gantry davits Britannic had. The last two boats were floated off. One was upside down and the other was still stuck to the ship as the final plunge began. Having twenty more boats would probably not have mattered much. They would have just been extra debris as the ship broke apart and sank.

She did not go for new fit outs before the disaster. now after her crash with hms hawke, she stayed alongside the titanic, but if you see clearly, titanic's b deck was already changed, her windows were narrow and unevenly shaped unlike olympic, you can also see work begining on the A deck enclosure of titanic. What you all have to understand is Titanic was "LAUNCHED" identical to olympic, but was heavily changed during her fit outs, that is why her tonnage increased , claiming her the title of largest ship. Also adding parlour suites, a la carte restaurant, cafe parisian and changing her hull number within the time olympic stayed in belfast, was impossible. also can you seriously shut out so many workers. Also now it has been revealed that titanic had a central propeller as three blades while olympic had 4. With new 3D outlook of the wreck you can see hull number 401 written on the blades of titanic. Please stop this theory. Titanic and Olympic were never swapped, they were similar but never identical. Also company never was going bankrupt that it had to swap. And please tell me which company will insure one ship but not the other, possibly Olympic should be insured before than Titanic as it was the first of the class.

Too many conspiracies too many stories start to come together and add up. 14 years before what ever ship it was that sank. The book the titan was published. Told just how the ship sunk 14 years before it even hit the water.

Furthermore, only 18 of the 20 boats were truly launched. The very last two lifeboats to leave the ship were washed off around the same time, one upside down and the other with its canvas sides only partially raised, causing its occupants to spend the night ankle-deep in freezing water after the problem was partially fixed. (These were Collapsibles B and A, respectively). Both did contribute to saving passengers and crew as a number of men survived the night clinging to the upturned B and most of those in A were rescued, but others died on each of those boats, not to mention a few more lifeboats besides. Just as many people don't know how many lifeboats Titanic carried and that it was all perfectly legal due to outdated regulations, a lot don't know that they were not even able to properly launch the full complement of not-nearly-enough boats. At the time, lifeboats were only expected to carry passengers to another nearby ship. (Indeed, there may have been a ship available to save more people had the Captain been alerted to the problem, but that's for another time). There were few-- zero?-- lifeboat drills for the ship once it left Southamptom and the first lifeboat did not row away until 12:45AM. Collapsibles A and B washed off around 2:12AM, giving less than 90 minutes to load the theoretical capacity of 1,178 passengers, of which of course they fell far short.

Bit disappointed that you didn’t go into more detail about debunking the “it wasn’t titanic which sunk” conspiracy. The Titanic and The Olympic were quite different to each other in many ways. The enclosed front half of A-Deck on Titanic for one, being the most obvious plus the different floor plan in various areas of the ships including first class, highlighted by the different window spacing towards the front of B Deck, to make the staterooms larger. Then there’s the addition of the Cafe Parisien and A la Carte Restaurant on Titanic which Olympic didn’t have at the time. To swap the ships over to commit the fraud, would have taken months of graft on both ships to physically alter the steelwork and structure! Not merely swap over name tags!!

Because there is nothing else to tell. Just some BS made by some fraud that wanted to sell books. The whole thing gets debunked in 10 seconds.

Listening to old videos of people telling about their experiences decades after it happened. Many passengers, at first, did not take the emergency seriously. The first boats had the least amount of people. As the ship sank, more people would be pushed on each both. About an hour after the escape, nearby lifeboats would even out the people by removing packed boats onto those with less people. Even splitting up Mother and Daughter, who would need see each other again until hours or days after reaching land.

I’ve heard most of these, as well as the evidence that much of them were just stories printed by newspapers at the time. The idea about Titanic being swapped with Olympic while in dry dock as part of an insurance scam doesn’t really hold water (pun intended). At best, there may have been cost-cutting measures taken to finish Titanic (cheaper quality steel, poorer rivets, etc.) because of the financial loss incurred by Olympic’s damage. This could explain why Titanic suffered such catastrophic damage when it was scraped by the iceberg. Had she been built to her specs, it might’ve withstood the damage at least until it made it to port.

Truth to be told, the pair of binoculars would not help to spot the iceberg, not even in the slightest. It would actually limit the field of view of the crew in the crows nest. Binoculars were not commonly used in dark nights even when they were available, as they would provide no advantage. The iceberg wasnt a shiny mountain of ice crystals. It was a black dark chunk without any light reflection, same as the sky behind it and the water around it. The night was totally dark, moonless, with no big waves that would bounce off the iceberg. In other words, it was not possible to spot the iceberg sooner with the 1912 technology.

What do you mean the ship would have to keep cruising at high speed? Like anything that runs on steam the Titanic was equiped with safety valves. If more steam was generated than was needed it could safely be vented through the safety valves. There would be no need to make the Titanic go faster in order to get rid of extra steam. Thanks to the safety valves, even if the engines were stopped entirely the boiler pressure would not reach dangerous levels.

I doubt very much whether Lightoller's daughter was passing on anything truthfully. Standard orders given for " hard a' starboard" would result in you turning the ships wheel to the LEFT even on a " modern" cruise ship in 1912. The thing that Murdoch got wrong was to order " reverse" of the engines. This takes time to achieve, and it is time that Titanic just didn't have. It results in the flow of water around the hull becoming less, and therefore the effectiveness of the rudder in turning the ship will take longer . The slower a ship moves the slower will be the time factor for the rudder to actually make the ship travel in a different direction. Murdoch should have understood that. Obviously he either did not or it slipped his mind. Murdoch's best move was to keep Titanic at the same speed it was travelling and still order " hard a' starboard". Its likely that had this series of orders been followed, that the ship would have turned in time to miss the berg altogether. Lightoller's daughter is or was obviously trying to sell books. Charles Lightoller did not mention anything about this in two enquiries on both sides of the Atlantic. So, one must question whether his daughter simply embellished the story.

It is highly debatable if Titanic had any chances of surviving in all the above scenarios.

I like most of this, but a couple of things are wrong. The Binoculars at night would have made no difference. It was nighttime with no moon. The ocean was dead calm, which, combined with no moonlight, meant that there wouldn't be waves crashing on the iceberg that would have made it easier to see.

Rest in piece

The reason why the Titanic was going at full speed was because fog was a large problem near the shores of America which means the ship needs to slow down by quite alot and it could cause delays. But if you go at full speed at the early part of the voyage this gives you something in hand incase there is fog. It was done by literally every captain on the Atlantic. The Titanic actually dealt with the fire by transferring the coal from the burning coal bunker on the starboard side to the port side and also they prioritized the use of coal from that bunker. It would not have made the ship go faster.

3:14 What I guess doomed the Titanic from early on was her very name. Titanic is the adjective for Titan, and the Titans in Greek mythology were a race who waged war against Zeus, the so-called "god of gods." This is the part of the story that seems familiar to quite a few. The part that seems unknown to most, shipowners at the time included, is that - guess what - the Titans lost. So, the Titanic was eventually defeated by her very name, as it were - and during her maiden voyage, at that .

I'm a ship enthusiast and technically a historian as well and man, you got (most of) the facts right. Great job! Though, one of the reasons Titanic's crew couldn't see the 'berg is because of a cold water mirage. another reason is that it was a moonless night, another is that there was no wind

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), (6) she was the newest ocean liner of her time and (7) the Titanic is the first ship in living memory to be sunk by an iceberg.

Yet people still believe the stupid switch theory. Here's also why its impossible: time. Yes, time. The Olympic/Hawk collision damage took 44 days to be repaired. During this time, Titanic was docked and being outfitted for its interiors and machinery for the first time, which took something like 7 months 11 days. As mentioned, Titanic had a yard number, 401, Olympics was 400. That number was on everything inside Titanic. Not to mention that Titanic differs from her sister ship by the changes to A and B decks, not to mention all the other subtle changes. So believers of the switch theory...you're telling me that they swapped all the stuff from Titanics hull, undid all the A and B deck changes, took out everything else marked 401, did the same for Olympic (gutted the ship of all things marked 400), and all that stuff in 44 days? Remember that it took Harland and Wolff 7 months 11 days to outfit Titanic from an empty hull. Also they would have to silence a lot of workers that were supposedly doing this. In the broad daylight. In Belfast Ireland. Yeah its really stupid. Titanic sank to the bottom of the Atlantic on April 15, 1912 at 0220. Olympic had a long service life but was scrapped in the 30s. A lot of Olympic's things were converted to use in restaurants, hotels, held in private collections, etc. They all have the number 400 on them. End of story

The idea for the lifeboats was not to have them take everyone from the ship and bob about in the water waiting for help. The plan would be to summon another nearby ship for help and use them to ferry passengers from one to the other. This would take time, but the designers thought that the sinking ship would have that time judging by recent sinkings. WW2 proved that ships could take a ridiculous amount of time to sink despite heavy damage; sometimes they had to be torpedoed so that everyone else could go home.

Here is a fun fact: the length of the titanic movie is the length it took for the ship to sink

'I am seeing more sources recently that claim the fire(s) were out of control and compromised the structural integrity.' No, you are not seeing any 'sources,'' you are seeing unsubstantiated claims by people with no actual knowledge, and who probably haven't even bothered to read the statements given at the two Inquiries. There was a small fire in a coal bunker. Witnesses from the surviving engineering crew stated that it had been extinguished by the morning of 14 April. Such fires were generally dealt with by using up the coal from the affected bunker as quickly as possible. After all a liner like Titanic generally burned 600 - 800 tons of coal per day. Consider this scenario :- Joseph Bell, chief engineer of Titanic, rushes up to Captain Smith on Titanic's bridge, just before the ship sails, and tells him that a serious fire is raging below decks, compromising the hull of the vessel. Smith, a Master since 1887, and the captain who had taken out every new White Star liner on her maiden voyage since 1904, says 'Never mind, we'll sail anyway. After all, it's only the North Atlantic in April. What could possibly go wrong?' Do try to think for yourself. How stupid do you think these people were?

Coal fires were nothing more than just smoking coal and not raging blazes hot enough to warp steel.

6:25 Because of a coal strike in Britain and because April was still off-season the Titanic was only two-thirds full; that's the only reason she had enough lifeboats for as much as 52% of those on board. Had she been fully booked then her lifeboats would've been enough for a measly 27%

Also, "coal fire" is rather overstating it. The conditions in the bunker would have resulted in a relatively cool-burning smouldering fire, not the kind of inferno you'd get in the boiler furnaces. It certainly wouldn't have gotten anywhere near hot enough to cause significant damage to a brand new heavy steel bulkhead, and in fact coal fires were pretty common on ships of the era. The probable reason why Smith was steaming at near full-speed through ice is because that was standard practice at the time. The thinking was any berg big enough to damage a ship would be big enough to spot, and that the best way to minimise risk of hitting ice was to spend as little time in ice as possible, hence go through as fast as you can.

Unfortunately people like the myths better than the truth. Just look at the “there is no virus” believers! If that’s tha case why did they just bury my friend who died within 2 weeks of becoming ill??

The idea that if the men in the crows nest had binoculars, they would have seen the berg sooner is false. There was no moon that night, and the water was so calm it was almost still. When there's no moon and still water icebergs are basically invisible because there's no break water around them and no light to reflect off them, so the only way to see icebergs is to look at the horizon for voids in the stars. Using binoculars would be useless because in that scenario, all you would see through binoculars is pitch black darkness. In 1912, the best chance those men in the crow nest had to spot icebergs was with their naked eyes.

People want to make order out of chaos. It’s hard for a lot of people to accept that the universe is random chance upon random chance. With just about any conspiracy theory when you apply Occam’s Razor it falls to pieces pretty quickly.

What 'patches?' Olympic had been fully repaired and was back at sea after late November, 1911. The full extent of her damage was described in the Admiralty report of November, 1911, supported by the Board of Trade & White Star, as:- “Two major watertight compartments were flooded, hull plating gashed from the Orlop deck to E deck, and the starboard propeller shafting damaged." The switch theory, invented in the mid 1990s, added claims that her keel was damaged, and later that a propeller had been replaced. There was absolutely evidence to support this (and much to contradict it) but it helped to sell the book.

Who else is early before the live Starts 👍🔥 We fast Though ⚡⚡

Good video, underlining why we shouldn't believe newspapers. The 1912 book “Sinking of the Titanic” was based on stories from newspapers. It sold hundreds of thousands of copies. Through these books and newspapers, Anglophobe W.R. Hearst’s version of events became “fact”. "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend."

Another YTer makes certain arguments regarding Titanic's lifeboats. First, they were envisioned to be used to transport people to another ship responding to distress calls rather than the place to wait until another ship came. They believed the safety measures in Titanic to delay sinking as well as the high volume of other ships would allow for this strategy to be used. Another point is that more lifeboats may not have made a difference because they wouldn't have had time to launch them. Even with not having enough lifeboats and not filling them up, the last two lifeboats (Collapsible A and B) just were barely cut free before Titanic's final death knell, almost going down with the ship. Furthermore, even ships that stay afloat longer than Titanic start to list, preventing a high number of lifeboats from being lowered. One last point he makes is that Titanic stayed afloat for 2.5 hours, which likely saved lives. Titanic's sister Britannic sank in 55 minutes and Lusitania sank in 18 minutes due to listing and capsizing. Because the Titanic crew moved the coal to the port side to fight the fire (resulting is a slight list to port during the journey), when they struck the iceberg on the starboard side, the ship started to right itself and flood evenly. Otherwise, Titanic would have listed to starboard and capsized, sinking much quicker and preventing lifeboat launching from the port side. And, towards the end, Titanic did start to list to port for other reasons, which caused sinking to accelerate.

I'd like to hear any information about "The Wreck of the Titan." In a future video.

Daly's account isn't exactly reliable though. His own words, only five days after the sinking: "There was no shooting, as I learn, except that a steerage passenger told me he saw an officer trying to control the maddened rush by shooting two persons. The same officer shot himself a minute later." So Daly may not have actually seen any shooting at all.

Just can't believe the answer Lightoller gave to question 14197 at the British inquiry Can you suggest at all how it can have come about that this iceberg should not have been seen at a greater distance? - It is very difficult indeed to come to any conclusion. Of course, we know now the extraordinary combination of circumstances that existed at that time which you would not meet again once in 100 years; that they should all have existed just on that particular night shows, of course, that everything was against us. That's not a ship's officer, that's a teen. The court wasn't impressed either and the message seemed to be, as Walter Lord put it so well, that the accident was of the one-in-a-million variety.

This so called “debunking” spent tons of time on things that have nothing to do with why some people think the ships were switched. It also completely ignored key pieces of information like how although the boats were basically the same there were some key differences and comparing them honestly definitely suggest it’s possible. I didn’t just accept what I’ve heard I did my own research with the notion that it would “debunk” the claims but ended up just confirming many of them. There is nothing wrong with not just accepting what we are told, it’s nuts how anyone who questions the narrative is deemed bad.

For all you morons who think Olmypic was switched with Titanic I have three reasons that prove it wasnt. 1 Everything on Olmypic and Titanic was marked with its hull number. I mean everything. The walls, pannels, boilers you get the point. Titanic's was 401. Olmypic's was 400 when you dive down to the wreck what do you see? 401 stamped on everything. 2 Olympic and Titanic had small exterior differneces the glaring one would be Olmypic B-deck promanarde along with not have a enclosed promenade on A-deck. (The reason Titanic did not have a B-deck promanarde was because it wassn't very popular and was removed and in its place the cafe parisien, more cabins and private promenade for B-deck parlor suites.) As you could imagine removing such features from Titanic and adding them to Olympic would be extreamly impractical and would cost a small fortune. 3 From a business point of view, this would be a stupid choice as they were marketed as "virtually unsinkable" so one of them sinking would be a huge economic blow and also massivly damage White Star Lines reputation.

It's obvious that Isidor Straus was an open supporter of the federal reserve, they wouldn't let such a prominent rich to board the ship if they planned it to sink. They could've easily stopped him from boarding.

Titanic wasn't the most advanced ship afloat at the time of her launch, aside from her size she was in fact fairly conventional aside from a few innovations such as hydraulically operated watertight doors at the engineering deck level (the tank top) and Welin double-acting davits. The earlier Mauritania and Lusitania were in fact more advanced and also faster. As for being considered unsinkable, this is sort of true, but at the time it was thought at the time that ALL fairly modern ships were effectively unsinkable or that you would at least have several days to safely evacuate before the ship went down. Captain Smith once said of the Adriatic (A predecessor of the Olympic class ships), "I cannot conceive of any circumstance that would cause this ship to founder. I cannot imagine any vital disaster happening to this vessel. Modern shipbuilding has gone beyond that"

6:07 That was only because White Star according to Walter Lord "liked little flourishes" still there were far from enough. It also needs to be pointed out that the Titanic was only two-thirds full which was owing to a coal strike in Britain at the time and because April was still off-season . Had she been fully booked then her lifeboats would've been enough for only 27%
