Titanic – The Unsinkable Tragedy

Professor Barney explores the most famous maritime disaster in history, examining the RMS Titanic's maiden voyage tragedy of April 1912. This episode delves deep into the class divisions aboard the ship, the technical failures that led to the disaster, and the heroic actions of passengers and crew during those final hours. From the ship's construction in Belfast to her collision with an iceberg in the North Atlantic, we explore how social inequality determined survival rates, the investigations that followed, and the lasting cultural impact that continues to fascinate us over a century later. The episode reveals how the "unsinkable" ship became a symbol of human hubris and the democratic nature of disaster.
