Actually, I'm convinced the Titanic was sunk by a doomsday cult as a sacrifice to the space aliens riding in Haley's comet's glow as it approaches earth in 1915.

My other controversy theory I heard was that the Titanic was sunk by a German U-boat.


I suppose the fact that it ran into an iceberg was just coincidence right?

Noooooo - the u-boat was INSIDE the iceberg, which was crewed by the doomsday cult who sunk the Titanic as a sacrifice to the space aliens riding in Haley's comet's glow as it approached Earth ....

Get your conspiracies straight!

No, Captain Smith was actually Captain Schmidt and he hit the U-Boat/Iceberg intentionally.  He was as English as Queen Victoria.....

Exactly. The Titanic was a conspiracy. So was WWI. And Germany doesn't even exist!

My great-grandfather had a ticket to be on the Titanic's maiden voyage to America, but ended up switching the ticket for another ship at the last moment Wink

Proof positive - you exist, therefore there really was no Titanic.

I just love the way these theorys manage to disregard the facts.

1, The RMS Titanic is sitting pretty on the ocean floor at Lat 41o43'35" N, 49o56'54" W, as documented by Dr R Ballard back in 1985, the Olympic served a long career until she was finally scrapped in March 1937.

2,Many of her internal fittings can be found at the White Swan Hotel,Alnwick  Northumberland UK Here

3,Not to mention photo's of the Olympic & Titanic on the slipways at Harland & Wolff in Belfast.

...
(Olympic is on the right,painted in white for her launch, Titanic was launched painted Black)

4,Pictures of the completed vessels afloat sitting next to each other! (Titanic is on the left)
...

That said, just when has a fact ever got in the way of such conspiracys?

Paul, dedicated Titanic nut.  Wink

Yes, note the cultists on the dinghy from the German submarine (the one that looks like an iceberg) as they carefully do a stealthy recon of the Titanic.
