♥ My post count is my age. Deal with it.
I thought I shot this thread down on the first page. >_>

Titanic:

  • Used most advanced technology of its time
  • Due to term "most advanced technology", popularity assumed the Titanic was "unsinkable"
  • The ship only had a lifeboat capacity of 1,178 people
  • The ship that night had 3,547 people on board
Why it was not shot down:
  • No eye accounts of "an explosion"
  • Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was not until 1914
  • The titanic sunk during peacetime on 1912
  • U.S.S.R. was not formed until 1922
  • The Russian Revolution was until 1917
  • Germany was not considered an enemy at the time.
Iceburg impact on the Titanic
  • It buckled the Titanic's hull, which allowed water to enter the Titanic:


Just wanted to clarify.

I agree with the OP, you guys are being pretentious, with your well thought out, long post, claiming yourselves to be right and him wrong with valid evidence and reasoning.

I know English isn't your first language, so I don't think the humor translated into your first language.

That site is a spoof of the many, many conspiracy theories that exist in America, such as the 9/11 conspiracy theory. A spoof is when you make fun of something by imitating it.

For instance, the melting theory shows that this is funny, as does this image.



As for Ice not breaking steal, it doesn't have to break the steel. It only has to bend it the way the Titanic was designed. Once the metal is bent, water leaks in and floods the ship.

If you want I could go through and pick apart why each thing he brought up is not a valid point.

The reason why so many people died:
-insufficent lifeboats
Actually I believe there were enough lifeboats to get everyone to escape twice. It's just the rich people didn't wanted to be crowded in with their "inferiors." It's not like that could happen today or anything. [/sarcaasm]

Yes lol, using thebestpageintheuniverse.net as proof is actually a very hilarious thing to do. That site is full of bull****.

Flaco, I always wondered if you were just foreign, or just dumb. I now know, thanks for clearing it up.
