NEW SUBMERSIBLE TITANIC MODEL!! (GIVEAWAY CLOSED) 

I altered a Revell Titanic with balsa bulkheads weighted with lead when I was a kid. It was designed to sink. This was 1993 or 4. It worked great as I tested the theory and process in our bathtub. I tied a string on the front so I could sink it in my local pond and then pull it back up. One day, when I got bored and a little older, I decided to disconnect the string and just let it go. Somewhere in Westland, MI, USA there's a model of the Titanic laying at the bottom of the pond, sunk by a 16 year old me, 30 years ago. I still think about it. I also began by exploring the concept with a styrofoam egg carton laden with marbles as ballast. Good stuff. :) Thanks for sharing.

I am so unbelievably glad someone remade this thing. I haven't been able to find it anywhere, the price is so ludicrous, so seeing it finally back in production is awesome! I'm honestly surprised no-one did it earlier.

The fact that someone has made a new version of this is absolutely amazing, always been wanting one of these since I was a kid, and the fact its now a (More affordable) Reality makes this an all the more sweeter deal! Hope to see the potential for other submersible ship models from this same creator!

I bought this last Sunday and it was delivered on Thursday!! I’m giving it to my son for this 7th birthday and his big party (Titanic themed party) is tomorrow. He has wanted the original for 2 years and with those eBay prices, it was never going to happen. I reached out as a last resort to ask for advice on Reddit and someone kindly shared with me this new model developed by Titanic Dream. I could NOT purchase it fast enough. I can’t wait to see his expression when he opens it tomorrow. Titanic Dream has/will make our son’s dream a reality and this loving mom could not be more thrilled than I am right now. It makes me emotional just typing this because I know how bad he has wanted the original and I am so extremely grateful someone created this. I hope their business soars! Much love Titanic Dream!!! I will email you some photos after the party tomorrow of him with his ship! The surprise can’t get here soon enough!

I stumbled across Sam’s videos after searching something titanic related after rewatching the movie. I have always been so intrigued by the titanic disaster growing up. After discovering Sam’s channel here, I started to discover just how many other extremely interesting things from history related to ships/shipwrecks. Discovering this channel has led me down a rabbit hole of such amazing history that I didnt even know about. So Sam, thank you kindly for what you do and how you do it.

You just opened up a doorway to my childhood. I had one of these things and it was the greatest toy ever! Only thing was the propellers and the funnels always broke free when it sank but it was still the best thing I had growing up

I have been making models like this for about 5 years now. Modded already existing models. The fact these are being made makes me so happy! The submersible titanic is back!

I am so glad that a company has decided to bring this model back. Throughout my childhood, I had done so much research on this ship and I was fortunate enough to see the actual artifacts from the wreck itself in person when it was on tour in Oklahoma. I have been wanting one of these models for a couple of years now, but like you, I didn’t want to pay such high prices. Thank you for sharing this video with everyone.

As someone who loves the history behind Titanic I also really wanted that model! Also as someone who loves learning about Titanic and other disasters I've been really enjoying your channel, keep up the great work!

“It actually comes with its own iceberg” absolutely killed me 🤣🤣😂😅😅

This is so awesome! Thank goodness that these are being made again since I never had one of these as a kid! I've loved the Titanic since the 3rd grade!

That's a cool model. There is a problem with this, the price. It cost $170 and if you get a discount would be $150. Not sure about any of you but that is way beyond acceptable pricing.

I’ve always wanted a model like this you never seize to amaze me

Imagine one of the last survivors seeing one of these in a toy store in 1994. It would be the most garish and tasteless thing they'd ever seen. I have to have one.

Hi Sam! I adore your channel. You are so incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to put yourself through heck for our amusement (i.e. Bright Side). Thank you for clearing up the many Titanic myths that have been generated over the years. ❤

"The icing on the cake" great choice of words

Im very surprised that this model was brought back many many years later in modern day, new and improved. I will consider picking this up but this looks amazing and I love the detail and effort they put into the model and sinking process. Thank you Sam for sharing!

I had always dreamed of owning a titanic submersible model growing up, until finally, a couple years ago, a kid in my neighborhood gave me one for free because it was slightly broken and missing all the funnels. I was able to fix it up, and I even figured out a way to modify it to make the stern come higher out of the water before it split up. I have since made some videos of it on my own channel, and it has been a dream come true for me. I recently started to 3D model my own version of the Titanic submersible model to 3D print, but I just clicked on this video and saw that it's been done already! Great job!

This is great! I'm glad that people are finally bringing this piece of nostalgia back.

In the past I've always wanted a Titanic Submersible Model, so far that I've even been scammed for it. I looked at the prices and I was not happy. But then some legend has recreated the magic with this new version. Absolutely amazing. At least it dosen't cost £1000 on ebay. Some day I could buy this remade masterpiece.

I’ve been fascinated with these models since I was young, I would go into antique stores to search for them hopefully able to buy one cheaply if the shop owner didn’t know its worth. Those days are long gone but I am glad to see them being recreated once more!

Absolutely awesome to think that a new model of the Titanic actually sinks.😮

I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge of the Titanic. I have always been fascinated by the story of Titanic since watching A Night to Remember when I was young . I always appreciate finding more things that you point out on every episode. Keep up the good work.

It's so cool you can get a model like this without paying way to much money

I almost had my hands on one of these way back in like 2009 or 2010. Insane to see how ridiculously priced they are nowadays. This will be the next best thing.

I love that the ship breaks there, separates me from the pack as Harland and Wolff intended

Now, if they could only have the funnels collapse and lifeboats launch, that would be really impressive!😊

I wonder if those fighting for their lives on Titanic ever thought "one day someone will make a childs toy out of this"

Hey Sam, excellent video again! I remember you making the original video about this model a year or so back and thinking how cool it was that such a historically accurate replica used to be made. That’s awesome that this model is being manufactured again now! This was a really fun video to watch 🙂

My brother has always been intrigued by the story of the titanic at a young age, he always asks questions about the ship like "what are the watertight doors?" Or "why did the funnels collapse?". I couldn't imagine the look on his face if he had one.

Thats amazing that they are making this model available again for such a wonderful price. Much better than one thousand dollars LOL!

Man, I remember dreaming about that sinkable model titanic when I was a kid, and asked for it for Christmas multiple times. Seeing the price now, I can understand why I never got it... It's amazing that there is a new version of it now. I'm sure it will sell very fast once people learn about it. Keep up the great videos!

149 bucks for a sinking 15 inch piece of plastic. You're out of your mind lmao. Thay thing is 35$ at best

I too, searched this model but was shocked to see the price. Thank you Sam for the new model :)

That's an "odds against" story. Time comes when it sees fit. Kind of funny too that as this video started I was noticing how much your collection has grown in the background. Another neat addition to add to it. I had never seen or heard of the "Submersible Titanic" model before, so that was a nice intro to it. I am a collectibles toy fan so unique toys are always interesting to me. P.S. The good thing about the Submersible is that it can be raised.

I still have one of those models from when I was a kid. Got it at an aquarium in Gatlinburg when they had an exhibit on the Titanic, and it’s still on my shelf in my home office.

Hi Sam! I initially considered purchasing one of the original sinking models off eBay when I first heard of it but decided against it, haha. I love your content! You tell me new things about the Titanic which I never knew and talk about parts of the Titanic story which I never see discussed. I appreciate you probably have a lot of video ideas to work on already but I have a video idea for you. I would love it if you made a video discussing the dogs on board the Titanic (I love animals, haha). You could discuss the kennel on board the ship, which passengers brought dogs on board, how they were treated, the planned dog show for Monday 15th April and the ultimate fate of the dogs. You could also discuss the myth of Rigel the big black Newfoundland dog and give your views on it. Great video as always!

Ever since I saw this model in a video YEARS ago I have wanted this thing so badly. I looked up everywhere and I quickly found out that it had been probably discontinued. The fact that its back though, I have no words…

Good luck everyone!

I found out about this model only couple of weeks ago and was super sad they didn't sell it anymore. This is my perfect opportunity to get one!!

Love the giveaway! Bet I’m too late to participate. Hope not 🤞🏻 Either way I have a question that I’d love you to cover on your channel. It’s something I’ve thought of for a while, never seen or heard it in any of the accounts of that fateful night. My question is: did they not try to use the ship’s incredible whistles to attract attention from the California, maybe even blow out some kind of SOS? If they did would it have been heard? Keep up the great work on your channel. So glad I found it 🙏✌️👊🏻

I'm currently bed bound but just wanted to say thank you so much Sam for your channel I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have you there to keep me going with my little time left on this earth. Thank you Sam

When I was a kid I always wanted something just like that. When I was young I actually used to take those gallon water bottles and cut off the side and cut little holes in the bottom and take it in the bath with me jusy to watch it fill up with water and sink. Why do some people (like myself) just completely obsess over sinking ships and mainly the titanic? Anyway, glad to know I wasn’t alone in this

So happy someone remade the Titanic submersible, was trying to find some 3D prints online with no luck, even tried designing my own model. This just looks incredible to such a ship enthusiast, i love it!

I remember back a few years ago how bad I wanted one of these, but they were so expensive. It’s good to see this company has started making new ones

Wow! Glad to see we can relive our childhood. Such a neat item and experience!

The company titanic dream is the only company to see the titanic bass and this ah letting remake the titanic modle from the 90s hope titanic dreams all the best and hope they will make more submersible ships in the Future and great video sam seen it on historic Hangout a few days ago and have been Excited for this video since.

That model is lovely. When I was young, I used to play with sinking the ship models of titanic and many other ships. I did that by my own with the cardboard and paper when I was a kid.

Thank god someone remade this thing. I have been studying titanic since i was six years old, and I have always wanted one of these things. I would be absolutely stoked to have one! thanks!

I remember seeing the original model years ago. Always regretted not picking one up.

Ismay : "The ship can't sink!" Andrews: "She's made of plastic sir; I assure you she can"

My mom bought me the original one the day it came out from Books-A-Million. I sunk that thing in our pool so many times. Eventually the little bar that connects the two halves stopped working and it wouldnt stay intact anymore. I'll have to splurge on this, I've always wanted another one. This one won't be left to rot in the sun and chlorine

The model is an ingenious design. Well done and every success

So I was like 7 years old when I saw Titanic in theaters, and I always wanted a toy like that. I never imagined they made an actual sinkable titanic toy. Though I remember having one but instead of sinking, it transformed into a robot, like a Transformer. I remember you could detach the crow's nest masts and put them on its hands like swords.

“That's quite a nice model, sir.” “Model?”

You have NO IDEA how much I've always wanted this model. I remember going to both a Border's and a Barnes & Nobles during the 2000's, trying to find one but to no avail.

I remember seeing these when I was younger. Very very cool, thank you for sharing :)

I've never had a titanic model before, it would be lovely!

I remember one of my grandparents talking about the original model YEARS ago when I was younger. Someone they knew had one, but had unfortunately lost it before they told me about it.

I remember those old models as a kid! glad to see they are available again!

I think it would be if they update it and have the funnels fall off like the original did. I like the suggestion in the comments about having lifeboats that can be launched. But I also understand that maybe they didn't have the funnels fall off since they could be easily misplaced or lost. Overall, I'm glad someone brought it back so people can get on that's affordable.

I’ve loved the Titanic since I was a kid! My birthday is actually April 14th so I feel like I have a real connection with the ship. I always wanted the original submersible model but those prices today are crazy! I’m so glad they’re making new ones now. Love the videos Sam!

I have always wanted one of these! I’m so glad that people are trying to recreate the model so that more people can have it without having to pay EBay prices.

Not even kidding, I used to go onto RU-vid when I was a kid just to watch people using the OG sinking model.

I’ve been watching you for a few years. You are one of the best RU-vidrs ever seen in all of history.

Hey great video, I just found your channel and have been watching all you videos. You have taught me so much more about the titanic and overall are just a great RU-vid keep up the good work👍

I’m delighted to see a sinking, break-up model of the Titanic back in the market. Like many I had one. And like many I didn’t really appreciate it as anything more than a novelty. I think I gave mine along with a stack of Titanic books to an acquaintance. I shrug my shoulders today at the astronomical prices sellers command for things that ended up on the clearance shelves at Barnes and Noble two decades ago. I wonder if anyone will (or already has) made some kind of elaborate sinking Titanic that breaks into multiple parts? Just imagine the fascination and frustration of such a model. This reincarnation of the turn of the millennium model is perfect as-is.

I hadn't actually seen these models before, they're great!

I like how the grand staircase dome can let water in like it did in real life. That model is so cool

I found it so cute that it came with the iceberg too. It gives little kids some fun while also keeping the titanic history alive. Yes its about a tragic event in history but it does help with curious people who want to know more.

This is so weird, I was literally wondering if this was something to actually see like this. I didn’t know this existed, this is very interesting to see

I recall buying back in the early 2000 a Titanic model that sank at a Rhinebeck bookstore for like 30 dollar's. Brings back fond memories.❤

I'm shocked that it's taken so long for someone to try to remake this. So glad they did!

Something I noticed during the final plunge was that the stern doesn’t sink like on the previous version

They made tin toy models of ships which broke in half activated by a tin torpedo. When you think about it, we as the human race have a morbid mind obsession about a ship sinking with people who drowned, went down and got trapped in it etc. I think the last people onboard were screaming to get off. The same with those they are trying to recover in the mini sub, the claustrophobia inside with 4 other people must be anyones nightmare like being buried alive.

That's awesome!! Glad it's being reproduced and affordable. Also thank you for sharing 😁

Good to see a company keep these types of toys alive for younger folks.

Wow! I have a lot of titanic models but not that one, it’s so cool that it can float and sink if you want and it also splits, WOW impressive!

So glad someone finally decided to make these Titanic models again. So excited!!

I love all history regarding the Titanic. Thank you so much for all the information you provide regarding this ship. It is fascinating!

I'm glad you found a replica of your favorite toy from when you were a child. been following you a while and I always enjoy your content.

The Titanic model looks very nice and sinks almost like the original one!

Brill video! Sick Titanic sinking model... Can't believe how expensive the old originals are nowadays on eBay..

Amazing to see a company remake this incredible toy today. Maritime gods please bring this titanic model into my arms.

Omg! The model is awesome! And I love your channel. I’ve been a fan of titanic since elementary school reading about it in books there was a painting of the sinking that stuck with me and from that day I made sure to find something about the Titanic.

I love this model! I am huge into Titanic and it’s history and have been wanting a submersible for so so long! It looks so cool. Love it!

Always excited to watch any video you make bud!

I also liked the Titanic model that could sink, but the damn prices are expensive. My dreams have been crushed. Im glad that Titanic dream brought the model back to life.

This was my favourite toy as a kid! We had an above ground pool and I played with it every summer until it became less and less recognizable. Towards the end of her life she had no funnels, no davits, some life boats, the mechanism stopped working, and a large Italian Line style funnel I sculpted out of clay. She was a much beloved toy and I am sorry I didn’t save it when my dad sold our old house.

Man this thing is so cool I was born when the original was no longer a thing but the new one is amazing and I’m happy to have a chance to win it!

Wow!!! This submersible Titanic is affordable again?? Just wow!!! I really love the details, and great video as always!!!

I love the old submersible model if the Titanic! I have always dreamed of owning one as a kid but back in 2012 they were just way to expensive, but seeing this new version! The child in me is literally dying to have one! But anyway Sam’s content is amazing & is the soul reason I am still a Titanic fan 16 years going stronge! Keep up the great work man!

4:30 There were some survivors who were adamant that the ship broke just in front of the 4th funnel. Based on some modern theories, the forward and aft towers both broke off underwater, releasing from the bouyant stern, which would have looked like the ship broke just forward of the 4th funnel.

Wanted the old submersible Titanic Model when I was younger! This is awesome to see a company bring it back!

So interesting! My 10 yr old boat nerd would LOVE this! 🚢

Really interesting to see it getting remade. I vaguely remember the original ones when I was younger, but never actually ended up getting one. Somewhat nostalgic nowadays.

Awesome video! And awesome product! So happy I found this channel!

I am super happy this model is back for way cheaper than on eBay i have been wanting to get one but it’s very expensive but when I found this video I got super excited so I added it to my cart.

I remember that original model…used to have one! Thank you again Sam!

Awesome that they created a new model. Enjoy your videos and q&a
