Wouldn't it have helped to put the ship in reverse at full speed to use the force of accelleration to prevent (or slow down) the water from entering the rear of the ship as possible?

Wow usually Discovery does a good job, with their facts. However Titanic struck the iceberg on Sunday April 14th and sank on Monday April 15th.
-
@1Historygenius Yes of course. It's a mistake, they didn't intentionally show footage of Olympic, unless it was an issue of the rights to Titanic footage being more expensive (likely.) The thing is, that takes a minimal amount of knowledge (the ships do not look identical) or a simple fact check to correct, so either they lazily did not source this documentary, or intentionally used footage of the Olympic. It's well below the standard of professional journalism or historical documentary.
-
@counterhon It could be a simple mistake they made. This is about Titanic not Olympic.
-
@1Historygenius Just as an example, the opening shots are of the RMS Olympic. It's incredibly plain, but since there is no background on the building or creation of the ships, they don't even mention the two sister ships.
-
@1Historygenius This is entertaining, and it seems well put together so it's good for entertainment, but I have been watching for under 5 minutes and there are already obvious, simply factual errors. Not many glaring false facts, but things that are easy to source and clearly were not.

JJ Astor didn't have the most expensive room, as far as I know. It was booked for JP Morgan who pulled out, and Thomas Andrews may have been moved there. In the film it was fictionally allocated to Rose and Cal.
-
This is shit,the rooms were not furnished with antiques they were furnished in antique style.I can never understand why they never check the facts
-
@GuyverFan95 i think this is a recreation made for the documentary
-
is it just me or is the camera work kinda crappy lol
Maybe one of you can answer this question for me. The scenes we see of Captain Smith, the Astors, and the other characters for example, was this from another movie made before or do you think it was nothing more than a simple recreation?
