Didn’t the titanic sink because the Captain kept the boat at a fast speed, and when it hit the iceberg, it flooded 5 or 6 of the compartments? I mean it’s kinda the builders fault for not building higher compartments, but it’s also the Captains fault for not slowing down.

@Metallica thats what the story tells us

Ah

Did you know there is a conspiracy about it

No, I wasn’t aware.

Titanic never sank

It was the sister ship the britanica that was intentionally sunk

Id have to look it up again

But its a convincing story

Didn’t they find the remains of the titanic 12k feet down? Or was that the Britanica?

They repainted the titanic and britanic in the night.

Then sunk the britanica for insurance

Cuz it was badly flawed

Or damaged already

So they defrauded the insurance companies

Titanic never sunk

@Metallica it was more a combination of factors mainly to do with poor visibility the lack of binoculars for the spotters in the crews nest, as well as the ships massive size and subsequent lack of mobility which caused it to collide with the iceberg, and due to technological limitations of the time the multiple sectional bulkheads that make it "unsinkable" where to slow to stop the flash flooding that occured due to the massive hole the iceberg caused in theory they would of worked on a smaller hole that was more likely to occur its just that a hole of that magnitude wasnt planned for

Thats the mainstream story

What was that one ship that witnessed the sinking? Wasn’t it like the SS California or something?

They got radio signals but cut the recordings because it was annoying

Titanics insurance was over 10 million

How much does the boat cost

It was insured by many companies

**A lot**

174 million

@Citizen Z not to poke a hole in your theory but attempting to repaint a ship of the titanics size in one night especially with the technology available at the time wouldve meant that it wouldve been a botch job in the best case scenarios, not to mention that the labour theyd have to bring in would be in the astronomical proportions, i get that the government can burn the books a little but theres no way they could conduct an operation like that without it leaking to the public

they intentionally killed the richest people on the boat because some of them were against the federal reserve

I’d expect the richer passengers to have a higher rate of survival

@RadRhys im fairly sure they did

@RadRhys because the higher class rooms tend to be closer to the top deck on most passenger ships
