    Yazole That's part of a conspiracy theory which I think is very true. I think the death of Titanic was planned as well as the limited amount of life boats and life jackets. Only women and children were the first to be saved. That left the men waiting on the ship. The titanic was the rich men's grave.

    Unlike others who have explored the remains of the Titanic and exploited it, and many who have salvaged the wreck and in the process caused great damage - Dr. Robert Ballard has a deep respect and reverence for what remains of the ship and the victims, and doesn't want to exploit it for personal greed or fame. He wants to preserve what is possible. I truly admire this man.

It’s complete darkness, they can feel the ship rapidly falling to the bottom of the ocean which meant pressure all over their body, like they were being squished and it also meant the water would have felt more cold as the sank!

People could see a historical site without paying for a thousand dollar plane ticket and thousands of more dollars for a submarine tour. They wanted to make this a thrilling experience for everyone and not reserved for the rich. They have the technology and the motivation. All they need is enough money to make it happen.

For some ridiculous reason the the jerks in Greece who claim authority over antiques like the sunken ship won't allow pictures or videos to be taken inside or outside the Britannic. That makes no sense and raises suspicion of there being a hidden conspiracy behind as to what truly caused the Britannic to sink. People to this day are still debating whether it was a torpedo or a mine and we won't ever know the truth unless you want to go to jail for 'breaking the law'.

Enough artifacts have been recovered and let's all agree to not pluck anything else for the aera.

    Seeing "The Big Piece" at the Luxor in Vegas 2 years ago. ..the several ton piece of the hull they hoisted up in 1998...was beyond words. I had yearned to see real Titanic wreck artifacts since I was a 9 yrs old child, so to finally stand next to it at 36 years old was a blessing. The exhibit did not disappoint and you could feel the sacredness of what you were witnessing with each artifact. I said a silent prayer in my head for those who died so unnecessarily and just gave thanks for those souls letting me be a witness to things that truly belong to them now.

    Your comment is exactly why I feel that we should bring up what we can before the ship collapses in and everything is lost. The dead would be honored and remembered by keeping the story alive. Leave clothes and boots or shoes alone from where a person laid to rest but other things like ship pieces, pots, plates, furniture, etc. should be brought up.

    My hat is off to the first seven comments on this site! They all were well said and very heartfelt. Titanic has always been emblematic to me, and seeing this by Dr. Ballard and seeing those shoes where a person once laid, is especially heartbreaking. After the movies and the motion pictures and the editing for movie purposes begins to fade, this is when you really get a taste of what really happened and the suffering that all those real people must have gone through knowing that it was the end for them. I remember when I saw the exhibition in New Jersey right after Dr. Ballard and his team discovered the wreck. Being able to see the physical representation... so many people's innocent lives..was in itself a tremendous blow to me personally and emotionally, and I remember at the end of the exhibition there was a signing book, much like there is after a funeral. I thought it was apropos considering we were not just there at any museum, this was a memorial and a remembrance. My entry was: "... how fragile life is!" And now looking at this, I realize even more the importance of appreciating every day that God wakes us up in the morning, and truly taking in the whole day and deeply appreciating the day we have to enjoy. It's good for our spiritual healing, our mental health; it's good for our soul. Ultimately, it's good for our families and communities! May they all rest in peace, and may all who watch this become thankful. ☮️

    The more you learn about the Titanic disaster the more tragic and horrifying it becomes. It's the complete lack of control these people had over their fate. I think the 9-11 attacks have a similar sadness and tragedy and why it resonates so deeply with everyone, anyone can relate to being a passenger on a large vessel or plane of some sort, completely at the mercy of nature and human engineering, and this is the stuff of nightmares for us all.

    We have different attitudes towards archaeology now. In the days of the British Empire, it was smash and grab; British archaeologists thought they had a right to loot the world's treasures. Egypt, as a poor country, let them do it to some extent but now want their historical and cultural artifacts to remain mostly in Egypt. Although the last Titanic survivor has died, their descendants and the descendants of those who died still live on. My grandmother's best friend, Eva Hart, was a Titanic survivor and she felt very strongly that the site shouldn't be disturbed, because that was her father's grave and the grave of hundreds of others. I think we've gathered enough facts that we don't need to bring artifacts to the surface. We have extensive photos and films of what the Titanic was like before it sank anyway.
