The Great Titanic Conspiracy

Product Information

Morgan did have a hand in the creation of the Federal Reserve, and owned the International Mercantile Marine, which owned the White Star Line, and thus the Titanic.

Because this one is about fictional characters in film, it isn’t something we can prove or disprove. One common oversight is the fact that the collapse of the first funnel at a relatively shallow angle occurred when the forward expansion joint, over which several funnels stays crossed, opened as the hull was beginning to stress.Huge fire ripped through Titanic before it struck an iceberg, fresh evidence suggests – The Telegraph. Senan Molony has suggested that attempts to extinguish the fire – by shoveling burning coals into the engine furnaces – may have been the primary reason for the Titanic steaming at full speed prior to the collision, despite ice warnings. This article may present fringe theories, without giving appropriate weight to the mainstream view, and explaining the responses to the fringe theories. Proponents of either theory point toward a number of clues: the Titanic didn’t allow for a public examination before its voyage, out of fear it would be found out by experts as Olympic in disguise, theorists claim. With assistance from naval architect Roger Long, the team analysed the wreckage and developed a new break-up scenario [20] which was publicised in the television documentary Titanic's Final Moments: Missing Pieces in 2006.

More recently, the Associated Press reports Titanic wreckage has been recovered with the ship’s unique construction identification number (CIN); the 401 being irrefutable evidence that it wasn’t an ill-fated cover up. A fire began in one of Titanic 's coal bunkers approximately 10 days prior to the ship's departure, and continued to burn for several days into the voyage.

Despite this reality, Paul Burns, of the Titanic Museum Attractions in Missouri and Tennessee, says that visitors still occasionally ask about this myth. This documentary explores the conspiracy that in fact it was Titanic's sister ship the Olympic that sank on that fateful night. Then, the vessel would have capsized about 70 minutes before the actual time of sinking and lighting would have been lost about 40 minutes after the collision. No evidence of their opposition to Morgan's centralized banking ideas has been found –– Astor and Guggenheim never spoke publicly on the subject, while Straus spoke in favor of the concept.
