Even though the news about the titanic crashing was known all over the world not many people knew exactly how. This resulted in newspaper companies reporting false information and starting various rumors about the titanic. Some of these rumors included the ship hitting an iceberg, a hole in the bottom of the ship, and the ship collapsing. It turns out just about all of these rumors were actually true. The government immediately after the crash conducted two separate investigations on why the ship went down. Both of these investigations led the government to agree that the ship went down as a result of crashing into a large unexpected iceberg late at night.

A year later, he came back to the wreck of the Titanic. He used a small submarine that he had built to travel to the wreck and take pictures. It took over four hours for him and his team to reach the wreck. They were the first people to visit the wreck of the Titanic. James Cameron, who was the director of the film Titanic, he recently became the first person to reach and travel by himself to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. This Mariana Trench is 15km beneath the surface. In his book, Captain L.M. Collier said that what the Titanic hit was low lying pack ice and not an iceberg. He said that the lookouts saw not a berg, but pack ice. He added that if the ship had truly hit an iceberg, the damage would have been much worse and it would have gone down in a matter of minutes. The length of the sinking process suggests the pack ice which caused damage to the first four of the watertight compartments. The trouble with this theory is that a many witnesses actually saw the iceberg and bits of it indeed shaved off onto the main deck on the …show more content…
If this is true then the true Titanic which never sunk spent the next twenty plus years sailing around the world as an amazing ship.
A second theory on why the Titanic sank was because it was cursed by an evil egyptian mummy which was the corpse of the priestess of Amen-Ra who lived around 1050 BC. The original owner of this corpse became very ill and sold it off to a museum in england. The corpse was supposedly stolen by englishman by the name of William Thomas Stead, who was actually secretly transporting this corpse in his car which happened to be aboard the Titanic. It was confirmed after the sinking of the Titanic that the corpse actually had just been stolen from the museum and was never seen again.
The final major conspiracy theory on why the Titanic sunk was that a german torpedo was launched at it from a hidden submarine out in the ocean. The only issue with this theory was that the war with germany did not start for another two years after the sinking of the Titanic, meaning that there was no reason for a secret german torpedo launching submarine to be out in that part of the ocean waiting for the
