Second, Bedford and Hacket have shown by calculations that any significant amount of water aft of boiler room No. However, this theory appears to be far from reality for mainly two reasons, according to Wikipedia: “first, there were no watertight doors between any of the first four compartments, thus it was impossible to lower the concentration of water in the bow significantly.
This theory suggests that if these doors had been opened, the Titanic would have settled on an even keel and therefore, perhaps, remained afloat long enough for rescue boats to arrive. As The Washington Post notes, invoking the Rothchilds as international conspirators is “a centuries-old anti-Semitic trope… The Rothschild family founded banking houses across Europe in the early 1800s, and they have been a favourite target of conspiracy theorists ever since.” Three: Titanic sank because of its watertight doorsĪnother theory talks about watertight doors. Apart from this, the theory claims Morgan wanted to kill them because they opposed the creation of the Federal Reserve, even though Astor and Guggenheim don’t appear to have taken any sides on it and the third actually supported it.Īlternative versions of the same theory claim the Rothschild banking family or the Jesuits were the ones who arranged Astor, Straus and Guggenheim’s deaths on the historic ship. Yet it doesn’t offer any real explanation for how he caused the ship to hit an iceberg and kill over 1,500 people, let alone the three men he supposedly intended would die. The theory builds upon the fact that Morgan had originally planned to sail on the Titanic but later changed his mind shortly before it took off. Two: JP Morgan planned the disaster to kill his enemiesĪccording to this conspiracy theory, millionaire banker JP Morgan planned the Titanic disaster to kill off rival millionaires Jacob Astor, Isidor Straus and Benjamin Guggenheim, who all actually perished aboard. The theory suggests that the Titanic’s parent company the White Star Line swapped ships for the voyage from Southampton to New York and the ship billed as the top-of-the-line Titanic but was, in reality, an older ship: the Olympic. Everyone seems to agree on one fact: A ship really did sink in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on April 15, 1912, and approximately 1,500 passengers aboard that ship died. This has been a conspiracy theory that often comes up online. Here, we talk about the craziest conspiracy theories about why the ship sank. To make sense of this tragedy, people over the past century have come up with weird, strange conspiracy theories that were supposedly ignored beforehand. Late in the evening on April 14, 1912, the historic RMS Titanic hit an iceberg and sank into the icy waters of the North Atlantic, killing over 1,500 of the 2,223 passengers and crew members aboard.
