The Making and Sinking of Titanic:I don't own this slide show. All rights belong to respective owners. Being shared for education purposes only.

TRANSCRIPT

Final moments Of Titanic……………..

Titanic hit the starboard side with the ice berg.

The under compartments of the bow started to flood.

Due to the flooding the bow commenced

to go down causing the stern to rise

Initially the sinking was somewhat slower…….

Yet the later part of the sinking was sort of faster

and the golden funnels of Titanic stared to lose one by one

Titanic continued to lose her funnels while the stern

was rising nearly 60 degrees from the ocean level

She was out of electrical power and the stress concentration

had reached the maximum @ the 2nd expansion joint of the ship

which lied in between the 3rd and 4th funnels…….

….caused the Titanic to splint into two from the 2nd expansion joint…

…right down to the keel of the vessel and the Stern fell back.

The Bow submerged completely by pulling down the Stern vertically

and then finally detached

The Stern floated a couple of minutes perpendicular to the ocean level.

Then the stern flooded and foundered completely leaving no trace of

Titanic.

The Bow traveled nearly 3km down the Atlantic ocean

And finally landed @ 2.20 AM on 15th April 1912

Titanic was lost from the world above in 1912

For nearly 07 decades until the ship wreck

was finally discovered from the

bottom of the great Atlantic ocean by

Dr. Robert D Ballard

on 1st September 1985

The first image of the Titanic captured by

Dr. Robert D Ballard and his crew

the control wheel of

Titanic

But the control wheel is

no longer to be seen

The Bow

When compared with the BOW, the STERN is utterly

destroyed in a manner that it can be hardly identified as a shipwreck

and the reason is due to the

air tight compartments such as refrigerated cargo compartment and

air accumulated huge compartments such as propeller shaft tunnels,

as can be seen in the profile of the ship, were located in the STERN

and during the sinking, having separated from the BOW

and traveling down the Atlantic ocean ,

all the trapped air inside these compartments

was released by exerting an immense pressure onto the STERN

walls followed by an explosion causing the outer

metal plates to be pealed out and all compartments located above these

air trapped compartments to be destroyed completely

This explosion was so powerful as it was heard by some survivors,

few minutes after Titanic sank completely!
