Have you ever met a person who hasn’t ever heard the story of Titanic? Unlikely. Even if you ask a 10-year-old, they’ll tell you exactly what took down the gigantic ship. However, some survivors of the sinking legend would beg to differ. Here’s one of their stories, and it has nothing to do with an iceberg.
Armenian publicist Vaghinak Byurat was 25 years old in the spring of 1912. He described what happened on his journey to America on the most famous ship in the world in his memoirs. He’s never mentioned an iceberg hitting the Titanic, and always spoke about an explosion. And if what he said was true, something must have caused that huge explosion…
💥 Btw, guys, there is a cat hidden in this video. If you can spot our furry little guy, you’re much more attentive than most people! Do you accept the challenge? 😽

SUMMARY:
– Armenian publicist Vaghinak Byurat was 25 years old in the spring of 1912. He described what happened on his journey to America on the most famous ship in the world in his memoirs.
– In 1912, Vaghinak published some books together with his father, a famous Armenian writer. His task was to take the books to America.
– They went to bed rather late on April 14, just like on the other nights. Shortly after midnight, something that sounded like a big explosion woke everyone up.
– None of the crew members wanted to say anything, but a few minutes later it was impossible to deny that the Titanic was going underwater.
– Vaghinak put his passport and money in a little bag and tied it around his neck. The Titanic’s bow was already underwater by that time. A lot of people in this situation wouldn’t have dared to take it to the open water.
– The water in the North Atlantic that night was just below freezing, at a scary 28 degrees Fahrenheit (-2 C). The young writer felt his arms and legs go numb, and he was understandably getting weaker and weaker every second.
– Then, he bumped into something. It was a lifeboat! But it was so overcrowded they pushed the young man with a paddle when he tried to stick to the boat.
– Vaghinak woke up alive on board another ship. That ship was the Carpathia, and it was en route to New York with lucky survivors on board.
– 12 days later, a woman came into the room. She turned out to be the person who saved Vaghinak. Missis Astor told the sailors that the young man was her son, and she wouldn’t let them go without him since she’d already lost her husband on the Titanic.
– Vaghinak lived a long and happy life and, as a great storyteller, he shared what happened to him many times. Interestingly, he’s never mentioned an iceberg hitting the Titanic, and always spoke about an explosion.
– It could have been a fire, and quite a lot of people actually believe that theory, saying that coal was burning in the ship’s hull.
– Another theory that explained the explosion claimed that there was a German U-boat involved in the sinking of Titanic.

Hey there, BrightSiders, what do u think destroyed Titanic?
Fire with a BOOM
What a load of bots
What sank the Bismarck (Majestic)?
The Kraken made it seem
explotion
🙂
NO
The owner of the titanic was greedy and it wasn’t actually the titanic that sunk, it was the Olympic but he said it was the titanic for the tax dollars, he had it planned and told all the crew members something before it set sail and he also said that if they told anyone they would perish
Bro got them cunard funnels
The women and children that were put in the life boats barring the men were victims of evil male patriarchy…
Oh it indeed hit that iceberg and SEVERAL mistakes were made. The rudder required water flow from the turbine powered center propeller to power assist the steering. The center prop was stopped and the two outboard were reversed. The ship could not have steered clear of the iceberg in enough time. Had they plowed into the iceberg head on, the ship may actually have stayed afloat. I believe the coal fire in boiler 5's storage bin did SEVERELY damage the bulkhead next to it and weakened it severely. That bulkhead may have given away at the point of the collision. This may have contributed to the intensity and speed of the flooding. I believe seawater inundating the Titanic boilers caused the explosions he heard. This would have been the direct cause of the ship splitting in pieces before going down. As always, a sequence of events have to happen in the right order for something like this to happen, there is no single cause to most accidents like this. I think it will be determined that this coal fire in Coal bin 5 definitely had an effect on the severity of this accident.
I LOVE UR VIDS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
This story does not match up, the majority of passengers that survived said that there was a shudder, not an explosion of some kinds
J
Yes i believe that it was on fire before all the passenger got on bord to set sail they didn't tell no one it was on fire
Well being that fact sinking this ship revolves around insurance fraud. And there aren’t icebergs where they were at. The prob did pull a twin towers and used explosives. Well I bet the didn’t use holograms of airplanes back then though.
I think it was an explosion!!!
You know that an iceberg isn't just about the peak,some have the radius and density of a mountain thus its more than likely that when it hit,that was the explosion he heard. Secondly not all of the passengers were asleep and were on the deck when the ice from the iceberg was struck and the deck was covered in ice.
There was a fire below deck before the shop set sail so the hull was already weak before the iceberg but they decided to go anyway because of the hype and money made from the “unsinkable”ship
I think JP Morgan had the US Navy fire a torpedo into the Titanic and sunk it. The fate of the Federal Reserve was on the Titanic.
Bi
No… Not selling me on this one…
