Why was it standard practice to:
>carry fewer lifeboats than can hold the people on board
>go full speed through ice flows at night when you can't see well enough to avoid what's in front of you
And why was the Titanic considered unsinkable when all it took was a long scrape to sink it?

>>carry fewer lifeboats than can hold the people on board

It necessarily wasn't, the company was being cheap. There was coming a belief that they weren't needed.

>go full speed through ice flows at night when you can't see well enough to avoid what's in front of you
They were trying to reach it's destination in record time to show off. It was the captain's last voyage on the largest man made machine's maiden voyage filled with some of the richest and most influential people.

>And why was the Titanic considered unsinkable
Because the inner lining was compartment. Rather than one whole inner that could be filled from a single gash, there were multiple upon multiple, so one could feasibly fill up and the ship stay afloat.

>when all it took was a long scrape to sink it?
It didn't. It wasn't one long scrape. It was several small scrapes, puncturing under half of the compartments. With them filling up and all on the same side, it caused that side to begin to sink, while the rest wanted to float, it's why it snapped in half.

The funny part is that in 1912 whites were really the masters of this planet. All other races were colorful little creatures in the background.

>>84124270
Olympic and Titanic were designed differently. They were maybe 80% identical

But that sounds like blatant negligence. I thought there were extensive investigations in the US and UK that determined no one was really to blame, it was just a perfect storm of circumstances that exposed out of date practices.

I don't see what fuss in this movie was about. The boat didn't look much bigger than the Mauritania

I have always been slightly obsessed with titanic. Watched so many documentaries, etc. It really is a shame Olympic or "titanic" if you will - Was stripped down. Though parts of it still exists in museums and i believe it's dinner set is used in a resturant it would've been awesome to walk in a live version of the ship. Brittanic is facinating too - Though a shame it's on its side.

Why didn't they create rafts out of deck chairs and tables?
Why didn't they throw beds overboard so you could float on the mattress?
If the real killer was hypothermia, why didn't they set themselves on fire before jumping into the water?
Couldn't they just drink all the water that was going into the ship?
Why didn't everyone run to the stern of the ship to keep it balanced until help arrived?
Why didn't the Eagles just fly the Titanic to New York via Mordor? Icebergs melt in heat.

Edmund Fitzgerald is more interesting

Too bad it it has been stripped and detoriated so much. Again it's a fucking shame that Olympic was stripped as much as it was. Can you imagine the popularity it would've had had it been kept floating and in shape, could've been used as a hotel/resturant/museum. Sleeping in a virtual copy of Titanic would've been grand.

>>84125146
Yeah that would have been nice, but unfortunately I don't think anyone was willing to entertain that notion in the middle of the depression.

>>84125256
Yeah, it's sad. Probably would've been quite useful for the researchers too researching the ship and comparing it to Titanic.

The Unsinkable Ship

>>84125399
Had titanic hit the iceberg head on it would've survived.

So I remember back in 2009 everyone was saying that by 2015 or so Titanic would just be a rust stain on the bottom of the Atlantic, but to my knowledge it is still there. Has anyone got any pictures of it from either this year or 2016?

>>84124790
That comes down to your own perception.
It was the Edwardian Era, high class in America were very much up there own asses in think things were 'too big to fail', only two decades later brought the collapse of the stock market as well as other massive failures.

>>84124963

Had titanic sunk it would've survived.

>>84123221
If the order to turn hadn't been given it wouldn't have sank

Not too long ago a team excavated some pretty rare Artifacts from it. They even found some gloves Rose wore.

A Chinese company is building an exact replica of the Titanic that will be completed in 2019. It's going to be a hotel.

>>84125954
Both me.
I think that was abandoned? Only two years to build a replica, though without engines etc it will probably go faster.

As someone who spent a lot of time around the Great Lakes growing up, the Edmund Fitzgerald is pretty spoopy. But there's just something about the Titanic, the perfect combination of massive tragedy, lost innocence, and romanticism that just completely captures the imagination.

good goys

>>84128568
It's all right. My father had a lot of problems. Got blown to shit in Vietnam and then when he came home I guess the doctors didn't do such a good job of weaning him off those painkillers. Prescriptions led to dope, which led to a slew of other diseases, which led to death. He had a lot of problems, but he taught me a lot.

>>84128745
That's good, must have been one hell of a man to still teach his child things after going through all of that. If there's a heaven he's there.

>>84122705
No Who's the ship, What's the captain

>>84128864
I appreciate the kind words. My father absolutely loved film. His favorite movies were Abbot and Costello comedy routines and Ray Harryhausen stop motion. I grew up watching things like Clash of the Titans, Jason and the Argonauts, The 7th Voyage of Sinbad, etc. Apart from that he loved war films and documentaries, and gangster/mob movies. It's too bad he died the year before The Sopranos started because I know he would've really enjoyed it.
