    Imagine how it would have impacted the people on Olympic to see an almost identical ship sinking before them ,and the people from Titanic going from a dying red-hued behemoth to a perfectly lit, perfectly seaworthy twin floating proud above the lifeboats.
    Would have been weird.

      That's ridiculous. If I was on a sinking ship I wouldn't care what ship came to our rescue even if it was a sister ship. Olympic didn't stop because of trauma from passengers. The fact was that Olympic was nowhere near the Titanic's distress location while dozens of other ships were closer and had a far better chance of reaching the Titanic. ​@@BillyBoiiiii

      Hmm, you might be right but also wrong. If Olympic rescued in time all of Titanic passengers, there is a big chance that lifeboat matter would be dropped and it still could be treated as a mean to ferry passengers from one vessel to another, not to escape. Both Lusitania and Empress sank very rapidly and intense so lifeboat quantity wasn’t the prelimimary subject, furthermore these tragedies occured in very insecure times. So there is a chance, that only another tragedy, with similar to the Titanic loss of life and in time of piece, could change regulations thereupon.

    I love this senecio on what if instead of being 505 miles away only being 58 would have made a world of difference especially both having basically the same top speed she would have made it just before the bow went under. But just imagine the sight of having Olympic sitting next to the Titanic just one thing I wish you could have covered. If the Olympic made it to Titanic an hour or so before the final plunge basing on the position you had Titanic at and the distance the two ships had would they have seen the ship break in half? If so you could explore the testimonies from the survivors and the Olympic crew as well. That can open many possibilities with Alternate History.
    P.S. are you gonna make a what if Titanic never sank video? Would love to see your spin on it

    First off, the Carpathia wasn't 58 miles away - she was actually 45 miles away. (Titanic's Fourth Office Joseph Boxhall had made an error in calculating Titanic's position and was 13 miles closer to Carpathia than was thought. When Captain Rostron made his claim that Carpathia made 18 knots that night - an impossibility according to the laws of hydrodynamics, based on her horsepower and the shape of her hull - he was figuring based on the time it took to actually reach the lifeboats divided into the distance to the CQD position. In fact, she averaged about 13 knots.)
    The maximum speed the Olympic ever achieved was 24.2 knots; at that speed it would take her 1 hour and 52 minutes to travel 45 nautical miles.
    If she received the Titanic's CQD at the same time Carpathia did (12.11am), then allowing 10 minutes to turn and work her way up to full speed the earliest she could reach Titanic's position would be 2:13am - only 7 minutes before she sank.

      That's what Captain Rostron of the Carpathia said during the tragedy. He felt that the Olympic's presence would have stirred a lot of negative feelings and overall trauma for the passengers after everything. It's like how if passengers experience a near life threatening castrophic incident on a specific aircraft in today's era (ex: Boeing) with potential hazardous faults in terms of transportation safety.

    The deaths are probably still far too low. Five hundred to eight hundred would be more realistic.
    Also, you missed a chance for a bit of humorous fun: Remember, Olympic was outbound from New York north of Titanic. So just picture Olympic rushing full-speed past the Californian (due north 15-18 miles from Titanic) and signaling her with morse lamp and rockets to get off her a-- and do something to help!

    • @DarthAverage
      @DarthAverage 3 місяці тому

      Olympic was west-southwest of the Titanic when she received the CQD; the direct path to either the CDQ position or the actual wreck site would not take her past the Californian, which was about 8 miles to the north of the wreck.

  • @BNuts
    @BNuts 3 місяці тому +1

    On the night, it was very much a question of proximity to _Titanic_ , as well as speed. Nobody can look down on Captain Rostram and the crew of _RMS Carpathia_ for pushing their ship so far beyond the speed she was normally capable of, even though that meant permanently damaging her. They very clearly understood that every moment counted when people could die from exposure and hypothermia.
    The captain of _SS Californian_ also would have to live with the fact that if only he'd woken up his wireless operator, he could have easily had his ship in position to assist _Titanic_ well before she took the final plunge: A mere 10 miles and ice separated the two ships, but it was enough to make communication without a wireless practically impossible, and so he assessed the risk to his ship and crew not to be worth it, and did not act.
    Interestingly, once J. Bruce Ismay was aboard _Carpathia_ , he told Captain Haddock to turn _Olympic_ around: all rescue was already completed, and the sight of _Titanic_ 's near-identical sister might traumatize the survivors, because they had just escaped death aboard such a ship, which had also claimed many lives of people they knew. Of course, if _Olympic_ could have been first on the scene, I doubt very much that Ismay and Captain Smith would have been picky about who was rescuing them. They would have even accepted assistance from _Lusitania_ and _Mauretania_ , their ships' chief competitors, if they had been the ones on the scene. If more lives could have been saved, that would be a great thing indeed, and still shipbuilding and shipping companies would have learned the same lessons.

    • @DANIELLE_BREANNA_LACY
      @DANIELLE_BREANNA_LACY 2 місяці тому +1

      And more people would’ve died of hypothermia if it weren’t Captain Rostron’s great rescue dashing efforts.
      It really is a shame Captain Lord just didn’t want to at least try moving again while it was still dark so he just waited until around sunrise before having his wireless operator awakened to check on the messages so they could investigate further on that very suspicious event they saw happening in the distance that night. The SS Frankfurt, the ship that informed the Californian about the Titanic sinking was built to go at about the same speed as the Californian, but she was able to boost her maximum speed with her efforts like the Carpathia did while she was also trying to dash to the Titanic’s rescue.
      Bruce Ismay’s decision to turn down the Olympic’s offer to carry the Titanic’s survivors was actually quite a smart decision. I can imagine how traumatizing it would’ve been for survivors to board a ship near-identical to the one they just nearly died on. Ismay also told the Olympic to pick up more lifeboats on her way back to Southampton since she didn’t have enough for everyone on board like the Titanic didn’t. Also, the Carpathia was actually built by the same company as the Lusitania and Mauretania and her captain, crew, and passengers all treated Ismay and all of the other survivors of the Titanic disaster with great hospitality so he really wasn’t picky at all about who he was rescued by and he then began to show a much softer side toward Cunard Line and even offered to reimburse them for having their Carpathia give up her voyage and weaken her parts to rescue as many people as possible from the Titanic disaster and then return to New York City with them.

      It couldn’t have been that much different from the Carpathia rescuing the Titanic survivors. The Carpathia was built by the same company as the Lusitania and the bitter rivalry between the White Star Line and Cunard Line sure didn’t stop the Carpathia from making her real mad dash to the Titanic’s rescue and I’m sure the Lusitania would’ve done the same thing as the Carpathia if she only was close enough to hear her distress call.
