Yes I am aware haha:
-Â however there was a Joseph Dawson onboard the ship he was a stoker in second class and his body was found and is buried in Halifax, Nova Scotia. As his headstone says J Dawson people like to think it's actually Jack when it isn't.
- There was also a Rhona 'Rosa' Abbott (closet name to rose that was actually on the ship) in third class who was travelling with here two sons. She survived but they didn't as they were 13 and 16 which in the Edwardian era classed them as men meaning they could not get into a life boat.
- Flashlight's also weren't around in 1912 so that's an issue
- The movie features the american version of Nearer my god to thee, when it would have been the british version they would have used on the ship
- Third class passengers weren't locked behind gates either
I can go on if you want haha xx
We found out, something along the lines of the ship not having broken like that too right? that was a myth?
the break wasn't symmetrical when it broke. When the ship's stern section came back down into the water, buoyancy forces took over the job of holding up that part of the ship, so the breakup stopped for a little while. At that point, the two halves of the ship were held together by the uppermost strength decks, and by the double – thickness side shell plating
