Black Sunday The Tragedy of RMS Titanic

This is the wreck that triggered my interests in Shipwrecks. April 10th 1912, the ocean liner RMS Titanic left Southhampton on her madien voyage. Four days later, the ship that had been declared unsinkable, slammed into a massive iceberg at full speed. Two and a half hours later, the Titanic plunged into the abyss, taking with her all but 706 of her 2,223 passengers and crew.

I accidentally deleted this video, so I had to reupload it.

Well, two people rolled a big snowball into a river. It was their fault for making the iceberg and make the Titanic sink. Or they just did that on accident. O_o!

The ice berg showed Titanic's mortality, but at the same time, immortalized her.

when it went down people started a rumor that the titanic was a murder! ismay owner of the white star line went to trial for his inncompinants with the life boats. He was proven innissent but may family still blamed him for decades to come.

Remembering April 15, 1912

Everyone could have been saved had the ship had more then 20 lifeboats, Ismay is rumored to have wanted the four collapsibles removed, which would have left Titanic with only enough space for about 700, since she was actually over the limit the laws said were necessary. Titanic was also underbooked for the maiden voyage, she was designed to carry 3,574 Passengers and Crew, and had she departed fully loaded the death toll would have been catastrophic

[snakes3425]

Actually all passengers and crew were recorded on the ship's passenger lists which Capt. Smith Submitted with customs

@ lordandrei1991

The reason is because nobody knows how many were on the titanic. it is a rough estimate, because personal ID wasn't required until 1916 during the First World War.

@TheRdog9

personally i think this is how the titanic would want it. when she is gone, people will remember the ship for what she was rather than some seaweed stained piece of iron at the bottom of the ocean. the ship can vanish and go away with dignity. just as the captain of the Mauritania refused to be on her when she was being torn down because he'd rather have seen the ship go down and still be remembered.

i meant 100 on a regular lifeboat in calm weather. but i am sure you must know what i am trying to say. however, most passengers were certain that this boat was invincible. some of them were seen getting on a lifeboat, and going to bed, and then waking up with water around them. by this point it was too late.
