Welcome to the official Titanic Connections RU-vid channel!!
Here we will learn about the ship, her story, and the tales of her passengers and crew as shared by those who love her. Our group is dedicated to "Connecting you with Titanic" through our content & efforts to preserve the memory of the 1,496 souls who perished on April 14-15, 1912 in the icy waters of the North Atlantic.
To quote the late Bill Paxton "The story of the Titanic is very personal to each person who hears it" and as such we as a team are committed to preserving the legacy of the Titanic, and ensuring that special 'Connection' people have with the great ship is preserved for future generations to learn. Subscribers can expect to see exciting & engaging uploads including regular Zoom events with well-known Titanic authors, explorers, and historians; as well as some exclusively shared content from collaborations work done with Titanic Archive Project & Storied Treasures.
Best wreck footage I've ever seen. Outstanding artifact recognition. Opinion: bring up as much as is identifiable from the liner. Clean it, preserve it, and display it to recognize the event and those lost.
This video shows the time way too slowly from the time of water coming over the bridge to the time of the final breaking. It happened much faster: seconds, not minutes. And then it shows the detached stern going down quickly, where in actuality it was much slower--minutes, not seconds. Besides getting that backwards, the video shows a continuous port list, with funnels falling to port. The ship had come out of its port list, and the #1 and #2 funnels fell to starboard.
Немцы-самая кровожадная и подлая нация, за всё то горе, которое они принесли народам мира, германии вообще не должно было быть позволено существовать как государству. А в руки немцам, я не дал бы даже рогатку.
7:10 "... This is the Britannic" Imagine you had to clarify which sinking ship you were talking about because you've been on so many, LOL I laughed at first but then I felt sad, poor old lady! She should have married that kind old millionaire in the New York hospital room when she was just 20 odd years old, (he wouldn't last long anyway) then she would have inherited his money and enjoyed 60 years of care free rich life! Getting hung up on Ned was her biggest mistake, after she went around the world to see him without getting a proposal, it couldn't be more clear that it was a waste of time to begin with. Plenty of fish in the ocean, she of anyone on this planet would know best, since she's been around all of them, hundreds of times!
Da ist ja gar nichts mehr von übrig. Das Schiff muss regelrecht von innen nach außen explodiert sein, solch ein schaden machen keine zwei Torpedos, weis der Teufel was die geladen hatten. RIP 🙏
This truly is remarkable, though, to hear her voice and hear her story in her own words. I’m obsessed with this woman’s courage and resilience. One sinking, I’d never work on a ship again. But three?
It has always been my understanding that (like the ANDREA DORIA and EMPRESS OF IRELAND), that dives to the LUSITANIA are extremely hazardous (due, I believe, to the swift currents), and that only divers who are the most experienced are permitted to dive on her. Is that true?
well, it would take a ton of resources, and its small pieces of the interior, most of the recognizable parts are long gone by now. And lets not forget over 1500 people died in that spot, the remains of their bodies still can be seen in the debris field.
Granted it's a grave, but some firm should get the rights to recover and display some artifacts before they're gone and forgotten , Lucy deserves a museum.
Wonderful! Thank you. Violet is one of those featured in the new card game "Survive the Titanic! The Card Game" because her story is amazing. Thank you for allowing us to get a glimpse into her life and story.
Thank you for uploading this!! This is insane. I never ever thought I’d get to hear Violet Jessop’s voice! Love hearing her laughing and cracking some jokes despite the subject matter. Thank you again, I’m so grateful to get to hear this 🙏 unbelievable to hear this 🙏
Thank you for sharing this recording, it is fascinating to hear her voice and the way she described the sinking. Amazing that a woman who survived two sinkings never learned to swim. Also loved that she said her favourite country to visit was Japan!
Time and tide has not been kind to the wreckage, depth charges too if that rumor is correct (misidentified as sub in later war). I know it’s common and probably not worth the risk but it’d be nice to see group of divers try to remove some of the old fishing nets.
No. No one knows for certain how she sounded as she went down as we have no recordings of how she sounded. Everyones impressions of how she sounded will be different. Its open to opinion and what we think is most accurate using other sources of information at hand.
Since Britain has NEVER been a country known for its honesty or even coming close to telling the truth about anything the world will never know with absolute certainty just what the RMS Lusitania was or was not carrying. All we have is speculation and rumor, no real facts! One thing we DO know is that Germany, then and in the war to follow was nothing but a bloodthirsty, barbaric nation of savages and this action proved it as did the unprovoked sinking f the Athenia just a few years later.
That's a lot of apparatus these divers have on their backs. How long are the ale to stay down? Most of what I see is rusty, twisted up, barnacle encrusted scrap metal. To be expected after all those years in the ocean.
Imagine being able to dive down to the Titanic like that. I know it is not possible due to the pressure at the depth, but this footage is eerie yet so fascinating.
It would not be as impressive then. Titanic is all about the mystery. And if she was in such shallow water then anyone could have seen her over the decades. It was an event when she was found.
@@brianbozo2447 Depth charges were done over her wreck during WWII-I THINK (not swearing to it) because she made for good "target practice" and also so she couldn't be used as a hideout for enemy submarines.
Not to mention the 1982 expedition which used explosives on the superstructure to retrieve artifacts (the stern was also destroyed to get at 3 of the 4 screws).
