Never Before Seen Color Photos of The Titanic

The events that happened in the film called Titanic was terrifying, and it’s crazy to think that it happened in real life. The RMS Titanic was the biggest ship during its era, but it lacked the technology that would guarantee total safety on the sea.

It sunk back in 1912 after it hit an iceberg, and many people today don’t have an idea of how things looked at that time. Today is your lucky day because we’re showing you some never before seen photos of the Titanic. These photos used to just be available in black and white, but you’re going to see them in full color!

You Get What You Pay For

Everyone who boarded the RMS Titanic thought they were going to have the time of their life since the idea of getting on a large ship was such a dream come true at that time. In the Titanic movie, they were able to do a great job of showing how life on the ship was.

Those who had money stayed in the first-class area, which promised the most lavish amenities possible. Those who were less fortunate stayed on another end of the Titanic, and couldn’t call their trip a 5-star vacation. One thing all passengers enjoyed whatever class they were in was the gorgeous ocean views.

Lining Up to Say Farewell

The Titanic’s maiden voyage, or the day it began its journey, happened on April 10, 1912. Many people didn’t get to land a ticket for the ship, so they just watched from the docks. Many people waived goodbye to their family and friends, and they were shouting “farewell.”

At that time, their goodbyes filled with positivity since they all expected to see them again after the trip. What these hundreds of people on the dock didn’t realize is that it was going to be their final farewell already. They didn’t foresee the Titanic to become one of the most infamous ships in history.

Monster Propellers

Since the Titanic was huge, 882 feet 9 inches to be exact, it was a given that it needed massive propellers. The photo above shows you just how huge they were next to humans. The two side propellers were 7.2m in diameter while the center one was 5.2m.

These propellers were the biggest ones in history, and even the cruise ships in our modern-day don’t have propellers this big. The engineers who worked on the Titanic wanted it to be powerful and had the vision of it getting talked about in history books.

It Would’ve Trended On Twitter

The Titanic was such a hot topic back then, and if it got built today, we’re sure it would be all over the internet. Every single journalist from around the world back then was talking about the ship, and everyone wanted to secure a ticket of their own.

Having a ticket for the Titanic was something that would show everyone that a person possessed an impressive fortune in the bank. During that time, many people wanted to show that they were wealthy and could buy anything. No one had a clue that the same ticket everyone wanted was to be a one-way ticket to their demise.
