Breakup of the Titanic - a new anaylsis.

Very interesting video analysing the engineering probabilities governing the break up of the Titanic

I found it very convincing.

I watched this and found it fascinating and all entirely plausible. What was interesting is that it looks to dispel construction myths - she was built to the best standards of the day but no ship of commercial construction could survive the strain on the structure without failure. Interesting stuff!
