Titanic Sinking Animation | Unreal Engine 5 

You certainly triggered my aquaphobia! Thanks a lot!

I doubt you will see this question, but if you do i have a question. If there is one mystery about the titanic that you could know the answer to, what would it be?

@@cpdf1764 Hi! Either what the wreck looks like under the sand, or what the pool looks like now!

are ya planing to animate more of the sinking?

Do you need any help with making assets and such? My strengths are 3D animation and modeling in the context of game development; however I'm no coder.

That must be horrible😨

I can't even begin to imagine.

I actually discussed this on a youtube video about the Bismarck about ten years ago and according to all the replies oxygen actually rapidly turns toxic to humans from the extreme pressure but you won't even have time to die from that because the air pockets usually burst within sixty seconds of submersion, crushing anyone still inside and killing them instantly.

its unlikely there was any air pockets..... when the front section sunk, it was completely full of water, while the back section was not, and that is pretty much why its in the worst shape, as it sank while there was air still in it and deeper it got, it suddenly exploded. If anyone was "lucky" enough to get into a air pocket, they would have been dead long before the ship hit the bottom, as deeper it went the air pressure would would have crushed them. Its believed that if there is any bodies still on the ship, they will be those of the engineers down in the engine rooms (as they were locked in when the doors were locked shut) and there is no way to get that deep into the ship at the moment (unofficial rule for explorations is as soon as anyone see's a body they have to stop recording straight away).

@@clark82 It's believed that the last bodies disappeared in the 1940s.

What's wierd is that about 40 miles north west of where titanic crash is where you called the Grand Bank. That area of the ocean is at most 400ft deep. It would have been very easy to go underwater and see the titanic if it did collide a bit more north..

@@hersheybar57or even divers to reach it

@@litorres4125or raise it

@@litorres4125 the titanic well of sunk in one pece like britannic

@@Tyrannosaurusstudiosno not exactly. Survivors say it split in half but no one believed them until they found the wreck. They thought the middle part decayed away

I’ve laid in bed at night thinking about the people who died on that boat horribly

@aya-lq9on What does this have to do with Titanic though? Idk why y’all do that.

Those sounds were specifically included here because the witnesses heard have given in detail that they heard titanic implosions under their feet in the water. Very scary to think about.

​@aya-lq9on that's a red herring

​@aya-lq9onstop race-baiting

Still, those 10-20 seconds must have been terrifying. Complete darkness, the ship turned sideways basically, a sensation of constant falling. Then explosions.

Ironic that the same happened to the titan submersible

​@jokpok7119 Already knowing that how much fake did media went with including knocking sounds ...Such a BS ... Two or more western media went with the story & the rest took the same .... But many experts claimed it was implosion but no one gave a shit . Already there was a special boat standby but they have to remain because the reality is that all of it was a show for media & knowingly government supported it . Canada & US was involved in it . BBC was like man what a piece of **** , they ran with the story & squeezed all of it .

Yep. The ship hit the bottom in 2-7 minutes

But don’t forget about the part where the ship was on the air, then broke in half and everyone stuck inside the stern went flying across the room when the stern fell back down to the ocean, then back up in the air to sink into the ocean. Imagine if they were in a big room and they just flew across. Some probably passed away when that happened. In pitch black :( can you imagine the horror? I think of the children. I can’t imagine what those poor babies went through

Those sounds they heard were actually implosions from air pockets that were inside the stern

@@robertgreen7786 I know that

Yes, that’s why the stern is almost completely destroyed today compared to the bow. It imploded as it was falling, whereas the bow descended like a torpedo due to its dynamics.

@@Brucehumphreyit also completely crumbled when hitting the ocean floor

@@SpencerPease-gy5bq Yes, but the main reason why it was so fragile when it hit the sea floor was because of the implosion as it was descending.

I've read that the alive people inside died without even feeling it, because of all the pressure underneath

@@coratopel1783 Well, what is worth understanding is that when water fills the ship the air tries to come out at the same rate as the cubic volume of the water entering. What you would experience is a rush of air, very strong as well. Where there was opportunity for rapid decompression like through an opening or porthole you would feel this whoosh of air,( perfectly visible in this video at the far stern section) in complete darkness, quickly replaced with water. Where pressure replacement was not possible IE deeper inside the ship, the pressure would just rise to an unbearable point. I'd better stop before I go into this rabbit hole but...... believing their death was painless and "pleasant" is just wishful thinking. It wasnt.

@@paulwalker2988 I read this theory several years ago about the stern section actually superheating to something like 600° in the first few minutes of it’s decent because of the air still trapped in the stern and the speed and pressure building up. It was this huge long discussion but it was extremely fascinating.

@@slyhog007 that’s not true because it imploded

@@slyhog007 I sincerely believe that stern section didnt have few minutes. Let me explain. Stern section had approximately 300ish feet in length. If we consider that the sea water pressure increases by 64 lbs./ cu ft. for ever foot it sinks,almost as soon as the stern fully submerged any air left in it would be subject to 25.000lbs of pressure. I am not saying that Titanic imploded and I am not a fan of this theory. There was simply too little air left in it by the time she reached critical depth. That depth would be 2-3 lengths of the stern section. At 500 feet any air compressed to 25.000 lbs./ cu ft would rapidly find a way through the ship, or make its own way through it. Considering her probable sinking speed, she would reach this depth in less than 2 minutes before the cavitating air would burst its way out of her. Once again its a rabbit hole topic but I hope you understand what I meant.

The bow of the Titanic plunged to the ocean floor like an arrow, while the stern crumpled under the pressure. I can only imagine the horror felt by those who survived and witnessed the ship disappear from view just before it crumpled. It must have been an absolutely spine-chilling sight.

I imagine at least most of everyone stuck inside the stern was already dead by the time it was completely submerged. Particularly after the ship had broken in half and the stern fell from its upright position back into the water. Even though the movie may have exaggerated that moment for dramatic effect, I'm guessing the odds of surviving the real event while stuck inside the stern by that point were about as unlikely, although arguably equally as terrifying.

Ironically they would’ve been among the lucky ones since implosion is quick. The people on the surface would been submerged in freezing cold water, slowly going delirious and their bodies shutting down.

“Fathom”. I see what you did there

Fish coming by later to the ones that found it first like "new ship, who dis?"

@@kingofwishfulthinking2490 Unintentional dad joke 🫠

same for the bismarck

Sure, except for the exploded boilers, being ripped in half, large parts of the stern being blown apart by decompression and crashing into the ocean floor. Other than that she was fine. And yes, it is an erie picture to think of this luxurious piece of metal as large as a skyscraper plunge into the pitch black cold waters with many bodies still inside and lots of the finest things in life floating around in sea water.

Or on top of you

Or scrapes you

Not this part of titanic. It was ripped apart on the way down and pancaked on the sea floor

Reminds us how tiny, fragile and inconsequential we humans are in the face of the abyss

Thanks Adrian! Glad you like it!

@@hermanjarl absolutely spectacular job, and I look forward to more similar projects from you in the future. Edit: just to add a little bit about the rear mast, it is suspected that it never snapped back, but by the time it hit the bottom, the hydraulic forces that were chasing behind the sinking of both ends of the ship, it caused it to bend over to the side as you see it today, and as far as the bridge, looking thing on the poop deck, everything got smashed into each other and torn off when the poop deck peeled back.

😊😅😊😊😅

Lol not really

​@@varidian694 it is tho

Very strange to be honest as the descent is so obsessed over by Titanic historians, but real time animations like H&G (which I love btw) only show it slipping beneath the waves.

LMAO LOOKS WAY BETTER THAN TITANIC.

He helped create a simulation of the Titanic sinking. It's here on RU-vid, search for James Cameron Titanic sinking simulation. Edit it's on the Nat Geo YT channel. It shows a lot and complements this animation pretty well (besides being old)

@@MikaelLV What's with everyone using ''slipping beneath the waves'' to refer to the final plunge as the stern sunk under?

@@firebottle8402 Why not?

I found that thought weirdly funny "God have mercy, I beg you, I-oof!!!" (thumped in the stomach by a lounge chair that floated up, which they are now laid out on)

​@@typo1345🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 😐👉🏻 🚪

Or they had already been dead from being thrown around when the stern went up in the air, then broke in half to slam back down, then back up again

Not a small chance, a huge chance. Many were trapped.

​@kazz345 why do you keep saying this wrong info?

They wouldn't survive long actually. They'd be dead past 170 meters i believe

@@p_filippouz I hope so.

@@stevemuzak8526 they definetely were. There's a certain depth where pressure was very strong and could crush everything. That's the reason why the stern imploded after going down, air was still in and the pressure tore the entire stern apart

@@p_filippouz The fact that it went down by the "snap-cavity", unlike the bow also contributed to that.

Fortunately, they wouldn't have had to deal with it long before they passed, and there is a fat zero chance of anyone being alive when the ship hit the ocean floor.

Titanic: Honor and Glory is a fantastic channel that covers everything on the Titanic. If you haven't seen it's content, I highly recommend it! ❤️

It’s rare that I have to look away from something myself! The sounds are what really got me. I don’t think I have enough courage to finish this incredibly well made video 😅

Softy lol.

@@DerexLuvsJenkins You're free to take your ass down to the bottom of the ocean in one of these and tell us all how it goes, tough guy.

​@@DerexLuvsJenkinssoftly? What do you mean?

@@RCsFinest only an idiot, would hop on something that has anything to do with surfacing on the ocean, the ocean is not your friend, it’s your enemy, we are primates we do not belong in the ocean the ocean is our enemy, so it’s up to you, even though this comment is four weeks late, the five idiots in the Titans immersible got what they deserved and the 1500+ people on the titanic got what they deserved. Also, they didn’t stay on land and that’s the soul fact of everything, if you mess with the ocean, you’re gonna get burnt.

Cora Topel 1 second ago I've always wondered about that as well! Everything still looking new, but underwater... If there was an animation or something, eventhough I got it in my head as I've seen it

Amazing and terrifying

That’s so eerie to think about. All in total darkness and unseen by any humans, but sitting down there nonetheless. Silent for the most part too. Fresh corpses forever in their cabins and some of what had been public rooms an hour prior. “First class entrance” and other signs directing only ghosts now.

@@abcdeshole how long do you think all those bodies would have been there before they dissapeared? (If they did)

@@coratopel1783 I mean, it depends on the placement of the ship , but definitely in less than a few months, even in that environment. Ask a mortician did a great video about The victims of the titanic and what happened possibly to their bodies

Well, fortunately for them they didn't have to endure that. Quick implosion, dead so fast your nervous system couldn't even send signals to register the pain. Unpleasant, but about as merciful as the ocean gets.

Oh my fucking god that would be terrifying

@@Stxrrl1ghtFr1ght not for the shrimp lol

Lol true

can you share with us?

@@qwerty123484 It's been 112 years...

I hope it was quick and painless for them in the end, if that's true

​@@Abcity92 It would have been, Supposedly mere seconds after the last of the ship was submerged they heard loud booms like bombs going off under the water and that would have been from the air pockets exploding from pressure basically at that moment any survivors that would have been left would have died instantly they wouldn't have suffered.

Submechanophobia :P

You Mean The Ocean gateTitan?

@@treehouseofcomics yeah
