“I though it would be a safe steamship, and I had heard it won’t sink.” Margaret Devaney, A Titanic Survivor once expressed. We all have watched this movie a million times, but do you have any idea about the real RMS Titanic which sank in the North Atlantic Ocean on 15 April 1912? Have a look-
1. Titanic was the only ocean liner in the history that has been sunk by an iceberg.
2. 246 people got injured and 2 of the workers died during the 26 month long construction of the ship.
3. The budget of the film “TITANIC” was actually higher than the budget spent on constructing the real ship.
4. Luckily, Milton Hershey canceled his Titanic reservation on the last moment due to unavoidable reasons.
5. Musicians of the ship continued singing as the ship sank.
6. Out of 12, only 3 dogs survived.
7. There were 26 honeymoon couples in the list of passengers.
8. The ship broke in two in its final moments.
9. 3,500 bags of mail were lost in the accident.
10. Morgan Robertson wrote a book named “Futility, or The Wreck Of The Titan” about an “unsinkable” ocean liner, 12 yrs prior to the real incident.
