    Did Titanic Have a Strengthened Bow?

    Knowing it would be running in Northern Ice prone seas did they strengthen Titanic's bows at all?

    Abuse of bow

    Found a short clip of a submersible arm molesting a piece of the bow on Instagram. I was totally disgusted by this. Not sure which expedition it was, but a shot of one of the MIR preceded it.

    Question How did Rose get to the bow so Jack could teach her to "fly?"

    When watching the movie, people easily accept that Rose was able to walk to the very bow of the ship to meet Jack. While there are steps leading up to the forecastle, there is also a barrier between the stairs and the very bow of the ship, with a sign that states "No passengers forward of this...

    Third class passengers and crew in the bow

    I would like to know how third class passengers in the bow escaped the sinking. I heard that they had to go through Scotland road to the stern and there wait because they were not allowed to go to boat deck. Is it true? I mean, they had no choice of going to boat deck from the bow? I guess they...

    How soon did Robert Ballard find the stern section after he found the bow section?

    If I recall correctly, he discovered a boiler first and then found the bow section; that's when he realized the funnels were off and the ship had split in two. How soon did he find the severed stern after finding the bow? And how far apart are the stern and bow sections from each other?

    In the 1960 movie "Sink the Bismarck", why doesn't the Hood's bow rise in the sky when she blows up?

    Like in this painting of the incident: Here is the clip from the movie:

    Did the Stern Support the Bow?

    When the ship broke apart, it’s likely that the heavy bow swung down, leaving the buoyant stern on the surface. Did the stern have enough buoyancy hold the bow in a downward vertical position while it floated horizontally as shown here? Or would the bow be heavy enough to drag the stern down...

    Why did Cameron show the bow hit the ocean floor but not the stern?

    In the movie, when Bodine shows Old Rose the computer sinking simulation, Cameron only decided to show the bow section hitting the ocean floor, but not the stern. The published book of the screenplay said the stern part was deleted in post-production. Did Cameron only decide to show the bow...

    Distance Between Bow & Stern After Break

    How far do you believe the bow and stern had drifted apart after they broke on the surface? Lightoller believed the screams were "half a mile" away from his boat. Jack Thayer saw the bow moving forwards and presumably away from the stern as she separated, and survivors estimated the stern was...

    How much energy did the bow hit bottom

    Why do things we can see inside the bow. Look as if the bow simply feel a few feet. Instead of plummeting more than 2 miles to the bottom of the ocean. Even on the Mantle's of the cabins even when it did survive the fall how did it survive the impact without falling off. And impact that was...

    Opening SOME of the water tight doors in the bow?

    I've had this nagging question in my mind... What would happen if not all the water tight doors were open, but say... the first 6 or 7? Would it settle the ship a little more evenly and make it so the ship would sink slower allowing more time to get off? Or would it make the ship sink faster?

    How the break-up occurred

    The heavy weight of the engines was causing a bend in Titanic's double bottom. Does this mean the double bottom was weakened and did the breakup start there? this would go perfectly with the V breakup theory, because the double bottom would of held on and water would seep through, causing the...

    Third Class Women in Bow

    Hello to everyone, After looking at many records, including the Joseph/Peter (Katrin Yusuf) family from Lebanon and The Fatal Journey of Third Class Men on the Titanic which shows info that at least 9 Third Class women were in the forward section, I was wondering if there are accounts of...

    Peter Joseph Lebanese Family in Bow

    When I was looking on the Cabin Allocations List, I noticed that a Lebanese woman and her children (Peter/Joseph Family) were shown to be having cabin F-63 (Section E) in the bow. I was wondering: I thought women and children were in the bow. To make sure this wasn't a typo, I looked on the...

    At approximately what time did the forecastle touch the water?

    I was just wondering, what time did the forecastle deck first meet the water surface?

    Titanic name on the bow

    I have believed that the name TITANIC on the bow was painted gold, however a local exhibit shows it white. Was it gold or white? Moderator's note: The subject of this message is already the subject of a thread in this topic. This thread, therefore, is closed. MAB
