Titanic
Titanic the movie was a love story
centered around
the true tragedy of the sinking of the majesty ship Titanic.
What was the true story of Titanic? Well, Titanic was owned by The
White Star line and built in Belfast Ireland. During the time it was
constructed, it was the largest ship of it's time. It was known to be
the ship of dreams and the most unsinkable ship known to anyone.
However, just four days into it's voyage, The RMS Titanic struck an
iceberg. When the ship was originally built, there were not enough life
boats on board for the amount of people the ship could hold. When the
ship hit the iceberg, the Captain knew that at least half, if not more
than that would die due to the lack of lifeboats. The ship began to
sink on April 14th 1912, and sank completely on April 15th 1912 two
hours and forty minutes after it hit the iceberg. There were recordings
of having 2,223 passengers on the ship and out of them, 1,157 people
died. On top of not having enough life boats, the people that were
filling the lifeboats did not fill them to the maximum capacity. The
tragedy of the Titanic will live on forever in my opinion, or will at
least be continued to be thought of until the last pieces of the ship
disintegrate into the ocean's abyss. There are many museums dedicated
to the Titanic as well as many artifacts and pictures still around from
those days.
