Titanic Wreck Deterioration: 1987-2010 Explained.

A short documentary about the deterioration of the Titanic wreck. I present the various observations I have made from closely researching the wreck. For the most part the Titanic is holding up quite well considering its age, however the rapid deterioration of the aft end of the wreck is most concerning.
2001 screenshots are taken from the documentary 'Ghosts of the Abyss.' While 2010 screenshots are primarily from the documentary 'Titanic: 100 years in 3D' and footage released by the Telegram.
[APRIL 2020 UPDATE] I have recently watched the new National Geographic Documentary 'Return to Titanic.' The documentary shows a very small amount of footage from the August of 2019 expedition. In the documentary they clarify the condition of Captain Smith's bathtub. Though they only showed very brief and distant images of the surrounding area. The forward end of the starboard side A Deck Promenade is still intact and is in very good condition. Unfortunately the ceiling above the bathtub has crumbled away and fallen on top of the bathtub destroying it. Well that's the best I could understand, considering they were very vague about it and showed no actual 2019 images of the captain's quarters. At some stage I will have to make a video about the documentary, so stay tuned for that.
Corrections:
@9:17 The D Deck Doorway was last seen in 1993 not 1983.
@10:44 Sonar is spelt incorrectly.
Clarification:
A few people have written about the image at 3:10. On the image at that I am referring to the large piece of twisted grey metal that is hanging over the well deck, which can clearly be seen on the mosaics at 3:14. The White triangle at 3:10 was created by original the image creator. Originally I did intend to add my own illustration, but had not got around to it.

Amazing that even in "dead" waters at the bottom of the ocean, the wreck is still a very dynamic place. I think it would be fun to install hydrophones on and around the ship to listen for structural changes as the ship deteriorates . I'm sure it would sound very creepy and very interesting hearing the metal groan and strain as things deteriorate and collapse.

Makes me wonder how much we could have seen if it was discovered earlier

@mateuszmattias 3 года назад

Since that kind of deep sea diving wasn't around until the 1950s it would only theoretically have been possible to find the wreck roughly 30 years earlier than was actually the case. And that's only regarding the actual diving equipment; I'm kind of doubtful 1950s sonar technique would have been sufficient to get the job of actually locating the wreck done. At that time it probably wouldn't have been in that much better shape than in the 1980s. Perhaps the paint would have been more visible and a bit less rust for sure, but most of the structural damage probably happened already when the ship hit the ocean floor in April of 1912.

@danieldoo1821 3 года назад

I wonder that too, but today even more than ever before after watching the news that the wreckage is deteriorating quickly. If the wreckage could've been discovered like only a few years after it sank, say like 1915 or something, and they had taken photos, would've been a lot better. It was discovered in 1985, and the funny thing is its discovery wasn't the primary goal of the people who actually found the wreckage. Mr Robert Ballard is his name I think, he made a deal with the U.S. military to find the wreckage of two U.S. submarines that sunk in the North Atlantic, just like the Titanic did, and Ballard's team " accidentally" found the Titanic's wreckage too. They came across the boiler first, and the debris field led them to finding the bow section, its front buried deep into the seabed. They also learned the ship had indeed broken apart into 2 structures ( or maybe it's more accurate to say a wreckage in 2 sections) . So...' the survivor accounts were accurate ' they thought. The stern, more severely damaged compared to the bow, is located around half a mile away from the bow. When the bow was located in 1985 the crow's nest on the mast was still there. Today, they say the crow's nest collapsed due to being too fragile.

I think its cool you can go to Las Vegas and see a section of the hull. We can enjoy it instead of oxidizing bacteria.

The Lusitania’s wreck is in such a condition partially due to her being a bombing site for the Royal Navy.

@philperry4699 4 года назад

U-boats in WWII liked to lurk near the Lusy's wreck, masked by the large sonar and magnetic shadow of the liner. The RN therefore pounded the area on a regular basis, badly damaging the wreck. Not long ago, divers brought up what they thought was an encrusted champagne magnum. It turned out to be an unexploded Hedgehog anti-sub weapon!

@debjoy12 4 года назад

plus that due to the fact that it only sank in 18 minutes, there was not enough time for the ship to fill up with water first like the bow section of the Titanic did. this is important because the hydrostatic equilibrium between the ocean and the ship prevents the depth-induced implosions caused when a ship full of air sinks, like what happened to the stern section of the Titanic. even though the Lusitania is a relatively shallow wreck, it lies deep enough for those massive air pockets to cause huge implosions of the water bursting through the hull followed by explosions of the air bursting outwards (it lies below "crush depth").

@genericguyproductions123 4 года назад

The reason why I named the Lusitania wreck as an example, is because the enormous depth of the Titanic wreck is very much a saving grace. The wreck cannot be damaged by surface vessels or salvagers.

Consider this: If the Titanic never sunk it likely would have been used in the war like the Britannic that hit a mine and sink, or would have been scrapped like the Olympic in 1935 which was also used in the war to transport troops.

Sadly the stern was totally destroyed the night of the sinking. The pressure almost exploded it. I would still be very interested in seeing what is still locked up in the major safe on the ship. Most of the jewelry is locked in the water tight safe. It was overwhelming and the officers could not get to every guest who had items in there. It is still locked and I believe because of the location within the ship, is still unaccessible. That safe has stories to tell. I'm sure if records were looked up they could trace the jewelry to the insurance clames, that's if it is ever found and opened..

@pavel9652 2 года назад

Interesting story, never heard about it. I bet the watertight safe is no longer watertight, both from the corrosion and the elements as well the pressure. The wreck is at 3800 meters, so the pressure is almost 3800 tons per square meter.

I recall seeing ROV video footage from inside the wreck which showed that the further inwards one ventured, the less growth and deterioration there was and the overall condition of wall panels was considerably better than those nearer to the exterior. I suspect that it will take the development of smaller ROV's which are less likely to face entanglement problems with dislodged pieces of wreckage inside the wreck to video record the least deteriorated and damaged sections deeper in the hull. Whenever one hears derogatory remarks about Health & Safety Regulations being too much, spare a thought for those passengers as they came to the horrific realization that there were never enough lifeboats to accommodate them and that their only certainty was that the boat was going to sink out beneath their feet into the freezing waters of the Atlantic Ocean...

@RedWingsninetyone 4 года назад

I really wish there was more information on the stern. It's always the most fascinating part to me simply because of the lack of information. Especially the debate between whether it had a 3 or 4 blade prop in the middle. Although contrary to the Lusitania and Andrea Doria, the Titanic's sister ship Britannic has actually been very well preserved in shallow water. This is believed to be because of high competition amongst organisms attached to the ship. They tend to feed on one another before the ship.

@0pnMnded 4 года назад

With the exception of a few Titanic buffs who are still in denial, the debate regarding the center propeller is over, it has 3 blades, and it's buried under about 20ft of sediment so the chances of seeing it are nil. However, there are at least 2 pieces of documentation which confirm it, one being the notebook which has the exact specifications for a 3 bladed prop listed, the other is in the form of documentation regarding the low pressure steam turbine being optimized to be used with a 3 bladed prop. In addition to the documents, there are also at least two photos which show a 3 bladed prop laying dockside along with the wing propeller hubs awaiting to be installed on Titanic, one photo isn't very clear but it shows the props profile and it is 3 bladed. There is also a photo which shows the prop from an angle and it clearly has 3 blades. There are no pics with the blades installed but the two pieces of documentation along with the photos in addition to the circumstantial evidence of Olympic being temporarily fitted with a 3 bladed center prop in 1913 pretty much closes the debate. A much larger debate now is over the color ''White Star Buff'', no one knows for sure exactly what color it was. There is also heated debate over the exact color of the antifouling paint used on the hull, was it red, pink, a shade of purplish pinkish red? No one knows and pics of the wreck are no help because the paint tends to change color very rapidly once exposed to the elements.

It was always in pretty miserable shape. In the 60s and 70s, as the technology improved to where locating the wreck became feasible, many scientists thought the wreck would be very well preserved due to the great depths it was at and low oxygen. Obviously, it was pretty disappointing to find it hardly recognizable--twisted and mangled up, buried deep into the mud (up to the anchor). French scientists released a study on finding the wreck, and the illustrations were very, very ambitious.

The Titanic and those must be allowed to rest in peace.

The pressure where the Titanic lies is so immense its measured at 380 Atmospheres. Just to give you guys an example look up the Byford Dolphin Rig Accident, they were drilling at an dept of 10 Atmospheres (at the top of the ocean the atmosphere pressure is 1) they had a major malfunction and the pressure was so immense that the entire crew died almost instantly. That was only 10 atmospheres and the Titanic is lying at an dept of more than 3.8 kilometers making this place, so hostile that you have a better chance surviving on the moon then here.

Appreciate the effort to put this video and examination together. In my mind, I'm curious how the buried bow section will fair over time. I would guess that it is going to be there much longer than most of the main hull area. I would hate to expose it to the elements, but I do wonder what we would see if some of the ocean floor could be dug away from the the side of the extreme bow or prow. Would we find nearly preserved paint on steel ? virtually no deterioration? or as the wreck bends and perhaps opens up more, could a submersible reach the inside lower section where the damaged occurred ? would to much silt and mud been pushed through the damage as the bow impacted with the ocean floor? All speculation that will most likely never be known.

Less and less Titanic, because each expedition takes part of it with them. Many smaller or larger artifacts are taken and they go to very rich collectors. They probably co-finance such expeditions. Some of the decks that disappeared within 5 years, and did not disappear for over 80 years earlier, are deliberate actions to extract valuable things from the inside. This beautiful ship began to quickly "fall apart" since 1985. Robert Ballard who discovered the Titanic believed that it should be left alone. Although he could become its owner by raising even one artifact, he did not. The people of RMS Titanic Inc. were unscrupulous. This is the whole secret of the "disappearance" of this great liner.

@timonsolus 4 года назад

popmart32 : If artifacts were not removed from the wreck, they would be lost forever. Future generations will have no wreck to explore and photograph, only the artifacts. This alone is a good reason to recover as much as possible before it is all lost in 2 giant heaps of rusticles on the sea bed. Unlike 1985, all the Titanic survivors are dead now, and even their direct descendants are nearly all dead too. The argument not to touch the wreck because it is a grave site is no longer as compelling without living survivors or close relatives to feel distress. Nobody made that argument in the case of the Mary Rose and Vasa when they were raised.

Interesting how different Titanic and Britannic's wrecks are. Despite Britannic being in shallower, warmer water, it appears to be in much better condition. I've heard she's not necessarily as strong as people say, but by comparison that ship seems to be suffering from much less collapse. Even inside the wreck where the rusticles can form, there's still far less of them, and interiors seem so well preserved it's as if you could just wipe away the debris and they would look nearly pristine by comparison. It'd be fascinating to see an analysis like this for Britannic but unfortunately it doesn't have as extensive of a library of photos and sonar scans. The last one done of the whole wreck was in 2003, a new one to compare it with would be useful.

@milfern 4 года назад

The Britannic´s hull is beeing protected by corals developing in the warm mediterranian waters, compared to the cold in the North Atlantic. The iron-eating bacteria (known as Holomonas Titanicae) are also a big factor and thrives in cold waters.

@@jamesricker3997 That had nothing do with the quality of it at all. You don't put steel meant for warships into a cruise liner, namely because it reduces your passenger capacity and increases costs. A cruise liner isn't meant to take a hit hence why it uses the bare minimum. The steel used on warships by contrast is designed to take a hit and usually made up a third of the ships weight when it came to armor. Titanic weighed as much as a Bismarck class battleship and in those days she was built with the best quality materials at the time including a hybrid propulsion system.

I believe these salvaged artifacts serve to inform the public about a period of history that otherwise would be forgotten. As for items I'd like seeing salvaged are as much of the telegraph machinery as possible. Its existence was why those 712 - 705 passengers and crew members lucky enough to secure seating in Titanic's limited lifeboats got picked up before the Atlantic's normally choppy seas picked back up later in the day of the 15th.

If you look at the composite images showing a top-down view of the bow from the 80s and today, you will also see a large, cleared out spot on the hull where hundreds of subs have landed on the Titanic.
