The starboard hull in the No.6 boiler-room wasn't ripped open it had a whole lot popped rivets and buckled shell-plating that parted the seams between shell-plates.
When the rivets were compromised by the damage from the iceberg, the pressure of the sea pushed in on the plates, causing the seams in between the plates to buckle more . Titanic had made 14 ft. Of water in just 10 minutes after the collision
0:05 - No surprise the ship split in two between the second and third funnels: look at how much hollow space the domed grand staircase room created. Clearly a weak spot, all of the weight of the just aft-positioned engines found an easy time at bending and eventually breaking up the hull in that particular position.
It wasn't just that, all those boiler and engine room uptakes, which widened out dramatically on E and F decks created a LOT of large openings in the decks above the engine rooms. That created places for the fractures to radiate from and right angles to follow until they joined and split Titanic into four main pieces. Towards the end, the hull began to hog badly, which caused the keel to jack knife and bend upwards, breaking the bed plates for the reciprocating engines in the process. At the same time, the upper decks were being pulled apart, and cracks appeared in the decks around the uptake for the number three funnel and the aft grand staircase. They radiated outwards from the corner doublers that were there to prevent the spread of cracks if they started at sea, but instead they caused the midsection to break apart into several large pieces.
Bulkhead between boiler room 6 & 5 didn’t give way. The coal bunker in boiler room 5 gave way, as it wasn’t made to be watertight. Volume of water within the coal bunker was way too much for the thickness of steel to contain, hence the rivets popping & the structure of the coal bunker wall giving way.
I just listened to Interviews from some of the Survivors from 1957 that were on the rescue boats and they was saying that the Ship was literally Vertical straight up and down as it made its final descent into the Ocean depths
same and i watched a few different ones. ive also watch so many videos of this now that it seems the people that lived had and still have the better explanation. between them and science ill have to go with them each time.
Yeah, In most of the simulations, the bow section always breaks off completely from the stern, either on the surface or deep under water. 🙄 But I believe the water-filled bow must have still been loosely hanging from the stern after an incomplete split. The bow section acting as a weight, pulling the stern underwater, causing the air-filled stern to turn vertical. Similar to when a fish catches a bait and the float gets pulled underwater. 🎣 Only after it had sunk, the stern section completely detached from the bow while falling to the ocean floor.
Some of the photos are not of the boilers, they are actually of the engine cylinders. Also the boilers are not fixed in the ship but are held in place only by gravity and their own weight. They sit in a pair of cradles, and will have “collision chocks” to prevent them moving forward if the ship has a sudden collision stop. Tip such a ship on end and all the boilers fall free towards the front end or out the back end. They are not fixed rigidly due to the amount of expansion they undergo for pressure and temperature, and it’s not uniform.
@shaynewheeler9249 Yes, until the sea flooded # 4 and caused a thermal explosion water 31°F hitting the 1,500°F steel. With close to 150 P.S.I. caused the steam to " pocket" and from the extreme temperature difference, likely caused cracks in the corrugated furnace walls and the boilers exploded. No one in Boiler Room #4 survived. It happened so quickly the firemen did not know what hit them.
@shaynewheeler9249 The reciprocating engine room was behind boiler room # 1 towards the stern, is where several expansion joints created a weak area during the sinking, the weight and pressure of the Ocean combined with 3 story reciprocating engines & turbine engines the weight with engines, weight and pressure of the water caused Titanic to split in two pieces down to the keel
@shaynewheeler9249 it was the boiler rooms forward of the engine room. The engine room was towards the stern, boiler rooms were forward towards the bow of Titanic. Boiler Room # 1 had 5 single ended scotch marine boilers. For auxiliary power, boiler room # 2 through 6 had a total of 24 double ended scotch marine boilers. There were a total of 29 boilers including the single ended units
It was open at the top, they can just climb onto upper floors. Cameron just made it very dramatic with everyone running for their lives when the doors closed.
The double ended scotch marine boilers weigh each close to 100 tons, at a depth of 2 1/2 miles below the surface, you cannot lift anything that heavy and raise it to the surface. Also, the boilers are cylindrical in shape and would be difficult to hold on to, let alone raise one to the surface
The Great Eastern's watertight bulkheads went up to the top deck and there were no open port or starboard side promenades; it was virtually a submarine! And...I have a rivet and some wood from when it was dismantled in Liverpool! 🔨😂🤣😂
They can still preserve the ship as a grave yard, but recover things. I think they should recover as much as they can. Not sure if thry are able to get a boiler. Get an anchor. Try to dig on the side where they believe she struck. That would solve a lot of theories.
you see , the rooms he is looking in are rooms that they mean something. what people havent done yet is assume that the rich may have stashed things in 3rd class while thinking they would go back aboard and retrieve. thing is they assumed they could prove the missing items. makes sense tho because at that time nobody assumed the ship could sink , only that they had to unboard
While it's true that rapidly heating cold metal can potentially lead to explosions due to the thermal stress, the scenario you described might not have caused a massive explosion on the Titanic. The ship's boilers were not directly exposed to the cold water outside the ship; they were contained within the ship's structure. The ship hit the iceberg, causing a breach in its hull, which allowed water to enter the ship. This water came into contact with the boilers, leading to a sudden and intense pressure increase that likely contributed to the ship's sinking. However, it wasn't a massive explosion in the traditional sense. The primary cause of the Titanic's sinking was the structural damage from the collision and the subsequent flooding, rather than a single large explosion.
@JaydenBillingsley Boiler Room # 6 the forwardmost Boiler Room closest to the bow of Titanic rapidly filled when the iceberg popped the rivets. Water flooded 2 ft. Above the boiler room floor. Second Engineer James Hesketh and Fredrick Barrett were talking, the "STOP " indicator on the boiler room telegram and red warning light came on " Fredrick Barrett ordered the fires drawn and dampers closed immediately. Just seconds before the boiler room flooded and was abandoned. Fortunately the fires were put out and the steam vented in # 6 . Otherwise the boilers likely would have exploded at full pressure 215 P.S.I. it would have Otherwise been catastrophic, Titanic would have sank in a matter of minutes
Boiler room one, was destroyed. Boiler room two was breached during the break up and is now mostly collapsed. The others survived the impact with the bottom, but they are collapsing along with the rest of the bow section.
Boiler room five was titanics last stand. For about 20 min after impact, it was a certainty that she’d go down quite like she did. The coal bunker behind boiler room five had been breached, and of course, wasn’t designed to hold water so when it gave way that was the end of the story. The captain was notified immediately. He said, go ahead and leave the watertight doors open, so the water can at least flow more freely, so the ship will be level for longer to launch lifeboats.
The watertight doors couldn't be left open they had float plates that would cause the doors to close if the room started flooding, the only way to open them would be manually and even still that would only make the ship sink faster
I think we have computers smart enough and we have lot of data... i wish someone could put all of the info in computer program and let it generate what happened.
8:50 Oceanliner Designs has an excellent video explaining this photograph. What you see is NOT a burn mark. This is easily debunked as that shadow or smudge on the hull is not adjacent to where the fire took place. Otherwise excellent video.
Just to be clear, Olympic wasn’t converted to oil firing until 1919 when she was refitted after her WWI service.

There has been attempts to enter the boiler room 6 via Scotland Road but due to the buckled bow and the amount of debris it was abandoned.

Remember that the water tight bulkheads didn't go to top deck, so water could spill over to the next compartment

Must of been scary been trapped in there when the water tight doors shut
They had ladders to get out of there.
Must've*

@LucyKosaki That's the movies for ya, dramatized for entertainment purposes
i am surprised we haven't tried to bring up any of those boilers and place them in a museum.

Wouldnt really cold water hitting really hot boilers do a massive explosion weakening the ship structure too?

crazy output of vids dude. keep it up.
6:14 is the first straight on view of the severed aft bow section I've yet to see. Compare that with the fwd bow section!

Where did you hear that nonsense?
Lol. Survivor testimony, mostly the UK inquiries, but I suppose some of it’s reiterated in the American hearings.
The watertight doors couldn't be left open they had float plates that would cause the doors to close if the room started flooding, the only way to open them would be manually and even still that would only make the ship sink faster
Keep up the great work!
Pretty cool you make these videos
What's the ocean floor made of out there? Are there Blue & Red King crabs? How about Shrimp?
Keep pumping it haha. More on the sub!
Why is Ginger my favorite youtuber
So The Fault Of Its Sinking Is There's No Waterproof Ceiling On All Watertight Door
No
S shoulda had option to go all qay up to completly seal the rooms that were flooding
You were showing the reciprocating engines and calling them boilers... several times...
Reciprocating Boilers 😂
Boiler rooms 6 to 3 are not available to be accessible do to the watertight door
Ginger, can you make a video of all the events from start to where we are now with everything that’s gone on with Ukraine and now with Russia
Coal fired steamship Titanic
The electric bilge pumps would not operate, the turbine was steam powered.
Take a shot everytime this guy says "boiler room"!!!!🤪
Why did the boilers not detonate when they were flooded with ice cold water?
Dampers had already been shut, due to red warning light being spotted by leading fireman Frederick Barrett before impact.
I think we have computers smart enough and we have lot of data... i wish someone could put all of the info in computer program and let it generate what happened.
8:40 - That area’s cargo, not Boiler Room 6. The very graphics you supplied demonstrate this.
The Titanic content is moving the needle.
Where can I get those prints? Thanks
You keep showing the engines not boilers
Electricity did not come from any of the boilers.. generators were at the back of the ship
7:03 Those are not boilers from boiler room 2, those are reciprocating engines
Last I heard they were still boiling steam.
You heat water to 212°F at this temperature water vaporizes and changes into steam
Why are you yelling like an angry gym teacher addressing a class?
2:30 water dont increase weight it decreases bouitcy
5:35 these are the engines. Not boilers.
Or they still boiling.😮
6:56 Again calling the engines ‘boilers’.
Hull breach
You trying to tell me the titanic is sunk.
The first I've heard of it.
