Titanic may not have been sunk by an iceberg after all

It’s been one of the biggest debated disasters for more than 100 years, but experts now believe that the RMS Titanic tragedy was not caused by just an iceberg.
Countless books, essays and a major Hollywood movie have all told the well known story that the ‘unsinkable’ ship collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean.

But a new theory has emerged that a huge fire was majorly responsible for the sinking of the ship, and the death of more than 1,500 passengers.

In April 1912, the largest passenger liner set off on its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York – but it tragically never reached its destination.

Now fresh evidence indicates there was a fire in the ship’s hull, which burned unnoticed for almost three weeks before that fateful night.

UNITED KINGDOM — MARCH 19: Engraving of the ship sinking after hitting an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean. RMS Titanic was built in Belfast, Northern Ireland, by Harland and Wolff Shipbuilders.

Nearly the length of three football fields Titanic was, at the time, the largest moving object ever created and also one of the most lavishly appointed ships ever built, and was the middle ship of three new super-liners. Her older sister, Olympic, served as a reliable member of the White Star fleet until she was scrapped in 1935 after striking and sinking the famous Nantucket lightship off the eastern coast of the United States. Her younger sister, Britannic, met a fate similar to that of Titanic during World War I when she struck a German mine off the coast of Greece and sank in less than an hour. 

Journalist Senan Molony studied rare photographs taken by the ship’s chief electrical engineers before it left the shipyard in Belfast.

The expert, who has researched the Titanic for 30 years, spotted 30ft-long black marks, just behind where the ship’s lining was struck by the iceberg.

‘We are looking at the exact area where the iceberg stuck, and we appear to have a weakness or damage to the hull in that specific place, before she even left Belfast,’ he said.

The marks were likely to have been caused by a fire in one of the boiler rooms, experts confirmed.

So when the ship hit the iceberg, the steel hull was too weak and immediately tore open.

Molony also claimed that the fire was kept under wraps and the ship was reversed in at the Southampton docks to prevent passengers from spotting the damage.

‘Nobody has investigated these marks before. It totally changes the narrative. We have metallurgy experts telling us that when you get that level of temperature against steel it makes it brittle, and reduces its strength by up to 75 per cent,’ he added.
