  • We still have the mind of the Titanic sinking even more than 100 years after the accident, despite the modern equipment and the best facilities at the time, but the ship sunk when it hit a snowy mountain, but was it really sinking?
  • It turns out that there are several other factors that led to the occurrence of this great disaster, regardless of the snowy mountain. Here are some theories:

     1. Fire in the fuel chamber of the ship

  • British journalist Sinan Muloni has been investigating the Titanic's history for 30 years. After checking the images taken before the ship's voyage, the crash was believed to have been a fire in the fuel tank.

It is believed that the fire started before the ship began the journey, but the crew were making futile attempts to contain the subject for weeks, and found that the owner of the ship was aware of the fire but he was silent and ordered the transfer of passenger ships to the other side of the beach in Southampton to hide signs of black smoke.

At that time, the ship's temperature reached 1000 ° C, making it fragile and penetrating. When the ship's structure was hit by a snowy mountain, a gap in the ship was immediately opened, leading to the sinking.


    2. Binoculars are closed, and their keys are left on the beach

  • Before leaving, the White Star Line managers decided Henry Wilde would replace his first colleague. He had experience with large passenger ships. However, David Blair, the former comrade, had forgotten to give Wilde the keys to the binoculars.

Of course, the Titanic had special fenders, but without binoculars they had to rely solely on their eyes for surveillance, and so they noticed the snowy mountain too late.


       3. Other factors

- At that time there was no moon, which is why the snowy mountain was not observed, and moreover starlighting dramatically made it difficult to distinguish between the sea and the sky. The horizon line looked higher than it actually was, making it difficult to observe danger Lengthening, not to mention the lack of binoculars.

- Despite the warnings of other ships of icebergs and drifts, the Titanic did not slow down. Safety rules did not guarantee these things at that time. If the speed of the vessel was less rapid, it would be able to maneuver and avoid disaster.
