Investigating the Titanic (Full Episode) | Drain the Oceans

Anyone else watching this after being immersed in missing submersible "Titan" on its way to take tourists to see "Titanic"? I've seen it loads of times, but wanted to watch again given the current situation. Praying all 5 are found safe and rescued alive!❤

Just think, yall made this video for free to watch and didn't charge folks $250,000 smh

This documentary is absolutely captivating, and having Paul Henri Nagreolet featured in it was a delightful surprise. His profound passion for the Titanic was truly evident throughout.

My heart still breaks for all those people who died, especially the children. How terrifying that must have been for the kids. 😢

There was a lady who was a child at the time and saw the Titanic break in half as it went under, no one believed her, men who weren't even there telling her she was mistaken. 75 years or so later she was proved right. I'm glad she lived to experience that vindication.

Started watching this today since the Oceangate tragedy occurred. This is a fantastic documentary and seeing Paul Henri Nagreolet in it was a bonus. He was obviously very passionate about the Titanic. What they did with computer graphics here was stunning!

37:38 P.H. Nargeolet was one of the ones who perished on the Titan, the OceanGate sub. He was an experienced seaman and diver. Bless all the souls that died in the sub and on the Titanic. I'm sad that the OceanGate owner didn't take safety certification seriously. He was warned and fired the employee who sounded the alarm. Both of these tragedies could have been prevented. That is what is so hard to take.

There's like 10-15 minutes of actual content in this 44+ minute video. Legacy media can't die quickly enough.

This kind of information being released free of viewing to the people after all costs incurred in research and development is so awesome of you guys. You deserve more. Thanks Nat Geo❤️

Rest in peace to Paul-Henri Nargeolet. He was one of the scientists inside that Titan Sub that got lost at sea :(

After all the years I've followed anything Titanic, each documentary I watch is just as educational, captivating and heartbreaking as if hearing about it for the first time. And each time, one can only hope, THIS time they will miss the iceberg. All those people....... and a domino effect of events that led to that horrible tragedy. 😥🕊🌹🙏👼 RIP Paul-Henri Nargeolet and everyone who was on the Titan.

Makes me feel so fortunate. My grandfather came from Germany to America at age 11 on the St.Louis in 1897. He did acheive his American dream. I've never found interiors of the ship. It was destroyed in 1924 after some service in WWI.

Rest in peace, Paul-Henri Nargeolet and your passion for ocean exploration and the titanic. You did what you loved to do up until now. You will never be forgotten along with the other 4 passengers in the sub ❤

The story that most broke my heart is that of Edgardo Samuel Andrew. The fact that at 17, he left by himself to travel the vast ocean to a completely new continent and country in 3rd class. I can’t imagine his fear as the ship was partially submerged, realizing that in fact it was going down but at 17 he did not constitute as a child, and therefore could not receive a seat on a lifeboat. He had to die alone on that ship, wondering if anyone would ever know his story. He may have been one of the unfortunate souls who were trapped underneath, which is a far more horrifying way to die. God bless those 1500 souls ❤

Most ships you hear took minutes to sink Titanic took 2 hours & 40 minutes, taking her last breath after waiting for as long as she could for passengers to safely leave Maybe she was okay with being a tomb for those who couldn't get on a lifeboat She wouldn't go down without a fight, a true titan in my book Farewell, Titanic We thank you for your service

Thank goodness for the overpowering music drowning out the commentary

RIP PH Nargeolet. Dedicated his adult life to researching the ship and has been laid to rest with the very thing that captured his curiosity. I have to imagine he had a different view than most on life and death. 36 or something missions to the Titanic is the definition of rolling the dice but he did it anyway. A rare, true modern day explorer. It's a shame that so many people are making light of this situation. Whether it was foolish to get on that shoddy submersible or not, those 5 men are now in a watery grave and should be treated with the respect of the dead.

Even after a century the story of Titanic never fails to fascinate us. I've always loved the documentaries on RMS Titanic. A ship like no other !!! Thank you Nat Geo for uploading this.

I just realized that Nargelot - the expert that appears first @15:17 in this docu - is one of the victims that died in the Titan sub accident :(

I remember driving cross country with my father in the mid 1980s, right after the Titanic was discovered. He was in the iron and steel business, and having grown up in the Soviet Union and Iran, had never heard of the Titanic. I told him about the iceberg having opened a gash in the side of the ship, and he looked at me incredulously and said, "that is impossible. You just can't cut one inch thick steel with ice." He then proceeded to explain how ships of the era were made of steel places that were riveted together, and he said what probably happened was that the iceberg distorted some of the steel plates and popped the rivets, and water was able to get in between the plates. He was a pretty smart guy!
