Genius switch "evidence"
One of my friends sent me this and asked if I'd come across the theory before - they do not believe it fyi. Ironic how they've actually proven it is Titanic at the bottom of the Atlantic (for those not so familiar, Titanic's A Deck promenade was enclosed after feedback from Olympic's early days), simply mislabelled the pictures of the ships. I'm convinced these people are getting dumber/lazier.
Thought it would give like-minded Titanic nuts a laugh 😊

When was the ship first described as unsinkable?
Okay maybe this is a dumb question but I hve heard so much different info and I was wondering for the correct answer. When was the ship actually descibed as unsinkable and not jut nearly unsinkable. Some say when it was flaoting, some say with the movie some say in the 50s. I am just very curious lol.

For my birthday I was planning on having a Titanic themed party, now should the cake be Titanic shaped, iceberg shaped or them two together?

Bill Paxton breaking the news about 9/11 to James Cameron, full clip from ‘Ghosts of the Abyss’
Posting this in response to the post made earlier today about James Cameron and Bill Paxton exploring the Titanic on 9/11. It was actually James Cameron and maritime artist Ken Marschall who were exploring the wreck that day, Bill Paxton was the one that broke the news to them when they resurfaced.
This is the entire clip from that scene, including extended commentary from the crew comparing the tragedy of 9/11 to the Titanic. This is from the 2003 documentary ‘Ghosts of the Abyss’, and if you’re at all interested in the wreck I highly recommend it!

Why Sleepign Sun associated with HMHS britanic?
Why is this song almost always associated with HMHS britanic? It has similar association to “My heart will go on” and Titanic, but that is because of the movie which went global, Britanic has only one movie and as per what I’ve herd it was not a well received cash grab

What happened to Olympic’s metal after the scrapping?
Most of the ship (like interiors and decking) was sent to the haltwhistle paint factory along with pubs & hotels, but what happened to the metal of the ship? Could any of it have survived and still be out there today?

On September 11th, 2001 James Cameron and Bill Paxton were at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean exploring the wreck of Titanic while America was being attacked in Washington DC and New York City.

If captain Smith survived?
Suppose that Captain smith had survived. What would have been his destiny? I have my own ideas but I would like to see others. Thanks!

Were there a “Titanic will founder” meeting with Captain Smith, Ismay, Andrews and the Officers in real life, like in the movie?
Do we know anything from inquiries or interviews from the surviving orficers what and how they exactly discussed, how this went, etc?
Edit: *Was in the title

People in the stern while sinking.
I was watching a video by our friend on ocean liner designs on the stern wreckage and he talked about water blowing through the stern while sinking and that there was mostly timber walls separating everything and not steel. So even if someone was still alive after it sank wouldn’t they just get pulverized by the water blasting through the inside of the ship? Talk about a bad way to go.

is it true that only 3 dogs on the titanic survived
I've seen it in multiple articles but people say that this is false
20:15 UTC
Gasp! They don't say!
Granted, I know us hard-core Titanic aficionados have always known this, I don't get how this isn't obvious.
