The Titanic, a luxury steamship, was launched on May 31, 1911, with the engines and interior not yet installed. Its lavish interior was often compared to a floating palace, featuring luxurious dining areas, lounges, and comfortable cabin quarters. The ship was fitted after striking an iceberg during its maiden voyage from Southhampton, England, to New York City.
The Titanic was fitted with all the luxurious details synonymous with the White Star Line, including plush carpeting, quality furniture, and fabrics. The ship also featured additional First Class staterooms, augmented public rooms, and minor improvements to enhance luxury and comfort.
The Titanic’s interior was decorated in Louis XIV style and had floor to ceiling panelling in French light brown walnut. Specially mounted ornaments and mouldings gave the ship a unique look. The ship provided 39 private suites, 30 on the Bridge Deck and 9 on the Shelter Deck, each with bedrooms with private toilet facilities.
The RMS Titanic was the largest man-made object ever to have taken to the seas, and its launch marked the peak of Belfast’s golden age of shipbuilding. The ship was fitted with additional First Class staterooms, augmented public rooms, and minor improvements to enhance luxury and comfort.
Rare photos of the Titanic provide a closer look at one of the most beautiful ships to ever exist. The construction of the Titanic began on March 31, 1909, when designer Thomas Andrews laid the first keel plate in the Harland and Wolff Shipyards Belfast, Ireland.
📹 What Titanic Survivors Saw When Titanic Was Sinking
Imagine being on the Titanic as it was sinking—survivors described it as both surreal and terrifying. They saw chaos all around …

When I was 11 a small article appeared in our local paper concerning the Titanic and a Steward who had served on the ship at the time of the sinking. Shortly after this my class was told to do a project on any non fictional subject, needless to say I chose the Titanic even though there was little interest in general on the subject at the time. I managed to track down the Steward and after an exchange of letters I was invited to his home, I persueded my Dad to take me. He was a lovely man and quite well spoken, he told of how he was on the stern of the ship as the ship went down, how he survived in the sea until being picked up by a lifeboat and eventually transferred to another ship. I had more than enough information for my project. As my Dad and myself left his house he handed me some keys that he had in his pocket at the time of the sinking. As the years went by and I left school I joined the British Merchant Navy in which I served for many years. I’m in my mid 70’s now but often think of that meeting that inspired me to go to sea.
The one crazy thing about the lifeboats on the Titanic. Conventional thought is that there were not enough lifeboats for everyone, which is true HOWEVER, two lifeboats were still left on the ship before she sank. Even if they had enough lifeboats, there wouldn’t have been the time to launch them anyway. It’s a shame they didn’t fill up the first few though…
Jack and Rose were fooling around on deck, and distracting the lookouts. Frederick Fleet was perusal the lovebirds, rather than perusal out for icebergs. If they hadn’t been there, Fleet would have seen the berg sooner, and the ship could have been turned away, avoiding a collision and the sinking. It was Jack’s and Rose’s faults that Titanic sank!
Well one thing you got right Yes the Titanic did hit an iceberg and sank as a result of it. After that there is nothing of value worth paying attention to. As for the reason it sank I will tell you why . As you may not know. The ship main frame had 9 huge compartments with walls seperating them from each other but one fatal flaw. They did not go to the top of that room. This meant that as water filled one chamber it would rise and spill over to the next chamber and then fill the next chamber until finally the last chamber was full of water and the weight of water in the early chambers did in fact tilt the ship downwards and at that point the stress caused the ship to break into two pieces and down she went to the depths below. You should give this sort of thing up because you got no idea what to do for accuracy. this is for sure. scale of 1 to 10?? sorry for me it is below 1. You sink like the Titanic
2:03 So the bottom of the hull is damaged, but the water comes down the stairs? 3:22 The Titanic was never referred to as ‘unsinkable’ before she sank. The gender divide in survivors was far greater than the class divide. While a passenger in first class was more than twice as likely to survive as one from third class, a woman (regardless of class) was four times more likely to survive than a man. As a result, the survival rate of women from third class was almost twice that of men from first class.
