This is the very finest, commercial grade, video I have ever seen on the subject. I do hope it was picked up by companies like PBS or that they get a chance to look at what you can do and have you do some more work for them. Yes I did subscribe immediately

Third class bodies recovered were tossed to the sea while second class and above bodies were preserved to be returned home for a proper burial. That is so messed up, my god

[skylark]

I’ve been to the Halifax cemetery where the victims of the Titanic are buried. It’s a moving experience. Even in death the victims of third class are treated without respect. Unconscionable and tragic. All the bodies should have either received coffins for burial on land or all buried at sea.

Even in death, they are sorted n dived by class, but when we stand before God, we will all be judged the same,

Heartbreaking learning about the 2 closest ships ignoring the Titanics fire signals. Just imagine the lives they could have saved 💔

[usasstar]

It’s so sad I cry when I heard about the little girl & her camera . I can’t believe that little thing took pictures of the people being saved on the titanic 😭😭😭😭😭 thank you for sharing such a wonderful video

The unknown child, Sidney, he was the only one from his family found 😢 Also, Ida was offered a seat, but she would not leave her husband. Die together instead of living apart. (They co-owned Macy's).

The little boy holding the newspaper report died aged 18 in ww1! If only be knew bless him :(

[mariazamarripa]

I've seen so many Titanic videos and stories, but this by far is the best one. Thank you for sharing and to the little girl with the camera.

[armyforlife]

This is such an educational video. Just thinking of the last moments these people experienced, it must have been unimaginably terrifying, traumatic and painful 🥺

[Luvcatz]

A titanic video where I actually learned something new?! I didn't think it was possible 💗 this was absolutely stunning

[Stationary]

I live in Halifax and have been to this cemetery 2 or 3 times. It really is amazing to see the headstones & reflect on that horrible night.

"Imagine looking at your kids knowing what is coming " I felt it, as I Mom how helpless must you feel? RIP 🙏 🕊

My great aunt and her brother were booked on the Titanic. He got sick so they had to book a later ship. He must not have completely recovered because he died on the voyage over, leaving my poor little great aunt all by herself on the rest of the trip, grieving the loss of her little brother alone, and then entering the chaos of Ellis Island. She never talked about it. She was quite a wonderful woman. Died in the 1970s and I still miss her. God bless you, Bebe.

This was a great video. I can't believe that history failed to mention the lives of the people who went down.

[francessavella]

Thank-you for telling a non-biased narrative of the Titanic...recognizing everyone as "equal" despite their economic status. RIP to all the victims❤

[pietromoopy]

I give that guy credit, not only does he find the missing Sub's he was tasked with but also the Titanic. Must've been a good year for him.

[itinerantpatriot]

My cousins lived near this graveyard. We would visit them when I was a kid and I had this strange fascination with wandering through graveyards back in those days. We used to have a competition to see who could find the oldest headstone. Needless to say, this was one of the more memorable graveyards I wandered through. May God accept the souls of this tragic event and all the dearly departed into His kingdom.

Even after all these years this story is still so upsetting. Thank you for this video.
