Sad to think that the tragedy could have been prevented (or diminished) by a more humble approach to Titanic's design. Just to think that they could build a ship that is unsinkable is a testimony to utmost pride. Her wreck is a monument to human arrogance.
Your child picks up a hammer and crushes their hand & blames you because you let this happen...and they are told that you love them...this is what they do not understand...
What man does with the hammer...in his wisdom is the result of an example of man's own arrogance.
It is man...that causes his own pain...just ask Adam that was with Eve
if they even try to raise it once it hits the air it will all perish away n jut become iron dust. leave it in its final resting place i mean you wouldnt want someone to raise your coffin to do wat they want to it would you no. 1500 people died that night leave it be n remember it 4 what it was not for money or your ignorance. thank you
Would people who believe in GOD just stfu. Not everyone believes in your fairytales.
Its funny how people attribute acts of violence/punishment/retribution to GOD. He sounds like such a lovely person...Id love to spend eternity with him....NOT.
@DIGITALSCREAMS They also attribute love, kindness, understanding, purity, happiness, calmness, wonders and beauty, just to mention a few things, to GOD.
it is so scary to think that the titanic was such a heavy ship and it still sank
i feel sorry for the people on her because of the coal strike they were moved onto the titanic
the rich people and the the poor people who did not get to go on the titanic because it was full they did not go on the titanic were so happy that that they were not on the ship but sad that it went down and that so many people died
@ 0.48 is that a real pic?? or is it computerized?? if its real its ssicckk... feel soo sorry for every one her.. i loved the movie...amazing... . and @ANNA00732 soo right gal!!
TITANIC IS BETTER THAN AVATAR. THAT IS A FACT. HOWEVER, AVATAR HAS MADE $940 MILLION MORE THAN TITANIC. WE HAVE THE CHANCE TO CHANGE THIS. TITANIC IS BEING RE-RELEASED INTO CINEMAS IN 3D NEXT YEAR TO CELEBRATE THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE SINKING OF TITANIC. IF EVERYONE GOES TO SEE IT, THEN TITANIC WILL RECLAIM IT'S CORRECT POSITION AS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FILM OF ALL TIME. TELL ALL OF YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO GET OUT AND GO TO SEE IT. ALSO, PLEASE SPREAD THIS MESSAGE.
I think as fascinating as this is, people need to let it go. It's now a tomb. People died on this. The artifacts BELONG to people, and need to be given to the surviving family members. Instead of trying to figure out how to raise it, "save it", it's all in vain. It will be an orange stain on the bottom of the ocean eventually. People want to make a profit off it and the personal belongings of the passengers on it. I don't know how these people live with themselves.
@spookypunky i agree dont get personal things, get parts of the ship, and document it, but not peoples things, the boots really puts a human level to it.
@spookypunky WONDER WHY J P MORGAN TOOK HIS ARTEFACTS OF TITANIC THE DAY BEFORE SHE SAILED AND BRITISH GOLD FOR AMERICAN MUNITIONS FOR WW1 DISAPPEARED THE DAY BEFORE SHE SAILED
I have no problem with people trying to aquire items for exibition. While I respect Mr. Ballard's point of memorializing the site, I also feel that relatively intact items should be brought up and preserved to share with the public. Only a handful of people could ever hope to explore the wreck. If we memorialized sites like Pompeii, the public would never comprehend or thrill to life in antiquity. The ship is rapidly decaying and will soon be an unidentifiable lump of rustcicles.
@chrysanthos66 They say the sea was very calm and still that night, which is unusual, and also there was no moonlight helping them to see. If the sea was rough and choppy like it usually is out there, you can see the waves breaking over the bottom of the iceberg and detect it earlier, they say the watchman put the distress call out and 37 seconds later Titanic hit the iceberg
when itouched a piece of the hull of the Titanic was an indescribable feeling, exciting, I'll never forget when I visited the exhibition of Titanic and saw that objects with a great story, and touched a piece of the Titanic, I felt an indescribable thing, it was the best exhibition I have ever seen, in the end you could buy some souvenirs, had identical replicas,i bought a cup with a beautiful white star line flag, which is closely guarded in my cupboard!
Titanic was a beautiful ship and it is sad to think of the tragedy that went with her on that fatefull night, all for the sake of greed....the 'route of all evil'!
Rip to all those that lay quietly with her, you are known, if not by name.........
Everyone stop saying that a human humans body cant be seen now after all these years because some maybe eaten by fishes and the rest of them there are coral growing on them so they r not seeeeeeennnnn
@blobby1972 You should be ashamed. In your words "in a way its good she sank as we can see her. lets face it she would have been scrapped and forgoten years ago if she had not sank." Of COURSE! Because a scrapped forgotten ship is much better than 1,500 souls that were lost on April 15, 1912. No! Can you imagine being on that ship? Dying? But, in your words, it's perfectly dandy that 1,500 people died that day, because the Titanic wouldn't have mattered years later, anyway, right? ...
has any body noticed that they only really ever show the front of the titanic but never the inside couse i dont know about use but i would llike to see it... i think it would be interesting to see what it looks like now course it was really nice then so i wana see what it will look like now like i know it want be as good course its so old and been underwater for so long but still i think it would be good.... thats what i think
@b0lsachica probaly not they said that any human remains would be long gone but only the ship and her things and the rest remain no human bodies dolls without bodies shoes benches workout things etc etc
just think one day the sea will have boiled away and the titanic will see the sun once more .ok so she will be a brown stain on the sea bed by then but hay ho.
Thank you for the post. It is all dredfully sad. I could not help but think on the inexpressable horror the people must have felt as they went down with the ship. And of those in the life boats, as they watched and heard all that happened around them that fateful night.
This version of nearer my god to thee was not actually played on the Titanic, there are three versions, and one of the others were played. Look up Titanic survivors, what they saw
Why is it that this ship just never ceases to amaze us all more than any other shipwreck? Yes it was her maiden voyage, yes it was the largest ship ever constructed at the time, but there has been worse loss of life on other ships, the Lusatania for example.
i know youre right, but isnt it ironic that was said? And by the man who designes it.It isnt cool to mock God. Its just ironic. Thank you for the reply. Anna
Fun Fact! :) All the shoes that you see on the bottom the sea next to the Titanic actually are the last remains of those who drowned. (its not really very fun by its still interesting)
if you ever visit Orlando, Florida, they have a huge exhibit with a ton of atrifacts of the titanic, they built the grand staircase just like it was in the ship and also built a room to see what it would have been like walking outside on the deck that night. have a bunch of plates/cups/silverwear and i also think there was a piece of the hull if i can remember correctly (i went 4 years ago) but it is amazing to see it all.
I remember as a kid someone said even god could not sink this ship.I dont beleave in a god / or gods that rules the world.What happened to the Titanic hit a iceberg and sank.There was no god that made this ship sink.IT HIT A ICEBERG AND SANK......
They should reconstruct the titanic, as a kind of dry-dock museum. As this great liner slowly but surley dissintergrates in the murky depths of the north atlantic, so will it's memories. People need to remember what happened to it. A full reconstruction should happen, then I think it should be kept in Liverpool.
@AVATARdemon113 That would be fantastic, although expensive. Too bad the Olympic was scapped and not saved. She could have been the museum. One can only dream.
Retreiving artifacts before they are gone forever is important. The story of Titanic stands testiment to the rich putting profit before human lives. A lesson not to be forgotten. The lack of quality control of the rivets used in construction, lack of lifeboats, the incompetant captain who gave in to commercial pressure and then compounded it by allowing the few lifeboats to launch only partly full........ and then the class system that kept the poor locked below decks until it was too late.
@tpsossff So you would like items to be robbed from the graves of the 1.5 thousand people to be used as an attraction in mostly american museums? You're British, you are supposed to have been born with respect. Leave the graves of the people to rest, leave the ship be. Go and dig up every ship if you anyone would do this one- it is only this popular because they went and made a film on it! Many have already forgotten the thousands who died on other ships.
Titanic prompted changes to maritime laws and procedures that probably saved thousands of lives in the years following. Ships were better designed to withstand damage without sinking. All ships had to listen for distress calls every half hour. Never again would a ship charge blindly into the night.
If those artifacts help keep the story alive they stand far better testament to the memory of the1500 souls than to disappear into the seabed in a few decades.
@TheSpiritof1969 But to get to some of the artifacts, people are going to have to destroy walls and metal framework. There is a swimming pool in there that was sealed off 10 seconds after the crash. They are going to have to break down a lot of airtight doors to get in. People learned from the engineering mistakes so it cant happen on that scale again. But when it's ripping up a graveyard of people it's different. Besides, you think about morals, businesses think about exhibitions= money
If you search YT there is original footage taken on the first expedition there taken in the 80s.there is also footage taken in 2007. See the difference, it is corroding away at a faster rate than it did in the first 70 years. In a few decades the ship will collapse completely and disappear. In a couple of hundred years it will be gone along with its memory.
I beleive it is important to save what we can to keep the memories of those souls alive.
Unfortunately those expeditions cost an awful lot of money. Money is something we are all shackled to and money is why the disaster happened. We cannot change that, Many museums charge for entry now, that is he way it is and they cost money to set up and run.
Most of the victims are not in that wreck, they died in the icy waters as the people in the lifeboats listened to their cries. Another aspect of the disaster never to be forgotten... where humanity gave way to survival.
@ANNA00732 God didn't do it, how could anyone blame God for the blatant foolishness of man to claim it was unsinkable in the first place, and secondly why o why weren't there enough life rafts etc, they didn't listen to warnings so whats new there then, its just terribly sad but God will resurrect the dead that is a certainty, for his word tells us that.
@8redcoins If most people truly believed that god killed all those innocent people, how could they feel anything but hate for that motherfucker? Most mainstream Christians (Catholics and Protestants) have a mature understanding about how the world works and will admit that man's successes and failures, triumphs and tragedies are all his own, and a god is for moral and spiritual guidance. Only the most backwards, superstitious rustics think that god will get you if you don't kiss his ass.
@cyntoria0167 freedom of speech. We don't live in a theocracy, as much as you want us to..
"Christians" are some of the dumbest, most gullible people on the planet. Don't you get it that you're being manipulated by the Atheists and Agnostics who control the media and the politicians?
You're being manipulated by Jewish intellectuals called "Straussians" (and no I'm not a Jew-hater), but it's interesting to see "Christians" following the philosophy of Atheist-Jewish intellectuals.
has any one noticed that when a person brung up the titanic artifacts all the people died early one of the guy brought back wine and licked the bottle witch seems dumb in the first place but then he died a few days l8r cauz he did that
It's quite incredible how the artifacts are still in such wonderful condition. I would have thought they wouldn't have last very long once exposed to air. amazing.
Actually the titanic was sank on purpose. There were a bunch of wealthy bankers on board who had the power to prevent the formation of the federal reserve and a bank monopoly . This was a way to execute them.Thats why the women and the children wre allowed to leave. I'll find the video and post it.
with the greatest respect to all who lost thier lives onboard titanic i would love to see her raised and brought back to where she was built, i think this is such a huge part of history and my great grandfather help build this ship but sadly never got to sail in her.i know there are mixed emotions as to whether she should be raised but as i've said its a part of northern irish history as should be seen by the next generation and titanic's memory should be kept alive for this reason
I dont like how alot of these comments talk how its disrespectful to go to the Titanic they sound like they have never down anything bad their lifes haha .............yeah right
I agree! I can understand taking a few items for museums and scientific research, but for tourists who either scuba dive or take a submarine down to the site to take items is just plane immoral and disrespectful.
It is ILLEGAL to take stuff from any type of monument, even if its under water, Who ever took artifacts from the most know wreck in the world, Titanic THEN FUCK YOU. The Titanic was a hella nice ship. Taking Artifacts is wrong and Offense to everyone. Why must they take good stuff away from its natral place. It makes me really sad. The next person that I hear about on TV as of July 6th 2010 that takes a item from the TITANIC, you will die with your head in your ass.
@maxthecat30 and salvaging it is nt bad...whats good a monument if u cant see it..its not a monument anymore...its a rotting wreck...salvaging the artifacts are for the fond memory of the legend ship and all the people who sank along with it..so we can feel with them..the regret for their loss!
I say it's ok to explore the wreck. The diving crews treat the wreck with great respect and care. And there is still alot to be learned from examining the ship. Theres been so many new discoveries of what helped sink the ship that they discovered from those dives. I just wish they have more footage of the stern section!
she was a master piece of a ship no doubt for its day..i personally dont have a problem with salvaging stuff, the souls are gone,and its a piece of history..i know if a museum with artifacts came my way i would most defiantly look..why not,and i bet those on here that dislike it would go look as well..
@libahunt88 are you being serious? Millions of people who died on the titanic? The Titanic could hold up to 3547 people (including crew). There were 2223 on board when it sank and only 706 people survived!
Apparently our grand piano was on the ship, but it was taken off because it was the captain's or something because he wanted it at his home and nowhere else. I was confused when my daddy told me that story... :s
I think we should preserve it as much as possible. It's history! I don't think it's looting a grave. It's preserving history. In a way I feel like it would be like throwing away all of of my father's belongings because he passed away. A lot of it could be family heirlooms if not museum artifacts could still be down there. I also think that we don't have many years left of Titanic preservation, so we must do it now. Maybe all proceeds from a museum, go to the families?
The people who died are dead. They've been dead for almost 100 years. They cannot be harmed or take offense to anything now. Do what it best for the living - if that means salvaging the wreck, so be it.
my great great great grandma and grandad were on board for there honeymoon unfortunately they couldnt get a life boat and one of those rings in a jewellry box is my ancestors wedding ring so i say dont take any artifacts from it dont move it its a burial for all the people that died on that ship whoever agrees like this comment and i will make a facebook group for it
@cod5ownage123 So then, I assume, they were plucked alive from the sea by the boat that went back. Otherwise you would not be here. What were their names?
Titanic... I like the movie, not for the sappy fake romance story, seeing the CGI of that ship break up, the terror, seeing what likely was in the eyes of those that were lucky to survive, "lucky" to hear the screams as more than 1500 died in the 20 degree water. Some wished they would die just to forget those screams for help.
You dont need to be some prep romance movie lover to respect Titanic, if you saw 9/11 on TV, you get the idea... Titanic was real, people died there.
@kiloman2 wow you thats rude. you act like they intended for the titanic to sink. it was a mistake and i;m pretty sure they didnt really mean what they said they prob just ment it was not likley to sink. many people died and you thinks its ok to be rude about it.wow
@sillysocks407 People die, that's a cycle of life my friend. I'm not saying i dont care about the people that died, i'm just saying what they said when they thought the Titanic wouldn't sink. Also i didn't said that they intended it to sink. It was a coincidence though.
@kiloman2 yeah but thats still rude to be like that about people who die it is a cycle but im sure YOU wouldnt want people to be rude to YOU when you die would you.
@sillysocks407 People are rude to me while i'm alive, so why should i care if their rude after im dead? hahaha. im not being rude about the people that died though, i wish they would all go to heaven! but i'm just saying that the makers of the ship didn't know how powerful God is. You shall not tempt the Lord.
the fact that titanic sank on her madien voyage from and iceberg, just an iceberg,it's like if they had listened to the iceberg warnings it would be around longer (mabey not today but...) the thing was my great-grandmother (died 2006) was supossed to get on the titanic,and the captin was going to retire after titanic's voyage, now titanic lies at the bottom of the Northern Atlantic, some people should build a giant crane to lift titanic out of the ocean
Seeing something like that, even if you were lucky to get off the ship, seeing the ship break apart, and the screams of over 1500 people freezing to death, no wonder it gave many survivors nightmares.
Bones are gone, in one image I have seen, you can see the boots of someone, ragged small pieces of pants clothing, and small pocket artifacts of shiney metal laying near the feet. Though the body is long gone, someone lost their life at that spot, in a horrible death. Imagine seeing the WTC collapse on TV, that probably chilled you, now think of being on a lifeboat, lucky to get away, but then seeing that ship you were just on split, and sink and 1500 people freeze to death.

if you ever visit Orlando, Florida, they have a huge exhibit with a ton of atrifacts of the titanic, they built the grand staircase just like it was in the ship and also built a room to see what it would have been like walking outside on the deck that night. have a bunch of plates/cups/silverwear and i also think there was a piece of the hull if i can remember correctly (i went 4 years ago) but it is amazing to see it all.

They should reconstruct the titanic, as a kind of dry-dock museum. As this great liner slowly but surley dissintergrates in the murky depths of the north atlantic, so will it's memories. People need to remember what happened to it. A full reconstruction should happen, then I think it should be kept in Liverpool.

Retreiving artifacts before they are gone forever is important. The story of Titanic stands testiment to the rich putting profit before human lives. A lesson not to be forgotten. The lack of quality control of the rivets used in construction, lack of lifeboats, the incompetant captain who gave in to commercial pressure and then compounded it by allowing the few lifeboats to launch only partly full........ and then the class system that kept the poor locked below decks until it was too late.
tpsossff 1 year ago 22
@tpsossff So you would like items to be robbed from the graves of the 1.5 thousand people to be used as an attraction in mostly american museums? You're British, you are supposed to have been born with respect. Leave the graves of the people to rest, leave the ship be. Go and dig up every ship if you anyone would do this one- it is only this popular because they went and made a film on it! Many have already forgotten the thousands who died on other ships.

@jacksite2007
Titanic prompted changes to maritime laws and procedures that probably saved thousands of lives in the years following. Ships were better designed to withstand damage without sinking. All ships had to listen for distress calls every half hour. Never again would a ship charge blindly into the night.
If those artifacts help keep the story alive they stand far better testament to the memory of the1500 souls than to disappear into the seabed in a few decades.
TheSpiritof1969 7 months ago
@TheSpiritof1969 But to get to some of the artifacts, people are going to have to destroy walls and metal framework. There is a swimming pool in there that was sealed off 10 seconds after the crash. They are going to have to break down a lot of airtight doors to get in. People learned from the engineering mistakes so it cant happen on that scale again. But when it's ripping up a graveyard of people it's different. Besides, you think about morals, businesses think about exhibitions= money
jacksite2007 7 months ago
@jacksite2007
If you search YT there is original footage taken on the first expedition there taken in the 80s.there is also footage taken in 2007. See the difference, it is corroding away at a faster rate than it did in the first 70 years. In a few decades the ship will collapse completely and disappear. In a couple of hundred years it will be gone along with its memory.
I beleive it is important to save what we can to keep the memories of those souls alive.
TheSpiritof1969 7 months ago
@jacksite2007
Unfortunately those expeditions cost an awful lot of money. Money is something we are all shackled to and money is why the disaster happened. We cannot change that, Many museums charge for entry now, that is he way it is and they cost money to set up and run.
Most of the victims are not in that wreck, they died in the icy waters as the people in the lifeboats listened to their cries. Another aspect of the disaster never to be forgotten... where humanity gave way to survival.

@8redcoins If most people truly believed that god killed all those innocent people, how could they feel anything but hate for that motherfucker? Most mainstream Christians (Catholics and Protestants) have a mature understanding about how the world works and will admit that man's successes and failures, triumphs and tragedies are all his own, and a god is for moral and spiritual guidance. Only the most backwards, superstitious rustics think that god will get you if you don't kiss his ass.

You're being manipulated by Jewish intellectuals called "Straussians" (and no I'm not a Jew-hater), but it's interesting to see "Christians" following the philosophy of Atheist-Jewish intellectuals.

I say it's ok to explore the wreck. The diving crews treat the wreck with great respect and care. And there is still alot to be learned from examining the ship. Theres been so many new discoveries of what helped sink the ship that they discovered from those dives. I just wish they have more footage of the stern section!

I think we should preserve it as much as possible. It's history! I don't think it's looting a grave. It's preserving history. In a way I feel like it would be like throwing away all of of my father's belongings because he passed away. A lot of it could be family heirlooms if not museum artifacts could still be down there. I also think that we don't have many years left of Titanic preservation, so we must do it now. Maybe all proceeds from a museum, go to the families?

The people who died are dead. They've been dead for almost 100 years. They cannot be harmed or take offense to anything now. Do what it best for the living - if that means salvaging the wreck, so be it.

Titanic... I like the movie, not for the sappy fake romance story, seeing the CGI of that ship break up, the terror, seeing what likely was in the eyes of those that were lucky to survive, "lucky" to hear the screams as more than 1500 died in the 20 degree water. Some wished they would die just to forget those screams for help.
You dont need to be some prep romance movie lover to respect Titanic, if you saw 9/11 on TV, you get the idea... Titanic was real, people died there.

Bones are gone, in one image I have seen, you can see the boots of someone, ragged small pieces of pants clothing, and small pocket artifacts of shiney metal laying near the feet. Though the body is long gone, someone lost their life at that spot, in a horrible death. Imagine seeing the WTC collapse on TV, that probably chilled you, now think of being on a lifeboat, lucky to get away, but then seeing that ship you were just on split, and sink and 1500 people freeze to death.
