The Titanic sunk on its maiden voyage.

So in May, you have 'Lusitania sunk' he reads as he writes

They abandoned the sinking ship.

So regardless, it's a very interesting incident

It was in 1912 that the Titanic sank during her first voyage.

The ship set sail only to sink two days later.

The ship sank with all her crew on board.

My partner and I, Thom, we had to let all our employees go.

My name's Robert Rainsford. Glad to meet you.

And this huge explosion is actually one of those question marks of history.

Piece of Errol Flynn's bathtub.

It was in 1912 that the Titanic sank during her first voyage.

I'm just talking about the particular night that she died.

The bathtub.

Let me write this on the timeline

The wreckage of the ship was salvaged after it had gone to Davy Jones's locker.

And so, even though the sinking of the Lusitania especially in American History classes is often given as a trigger for America's entrance into war,

Now the ship goes down taking down with it most of its passengers.

This is a bathtub I made, made out of scrap two by four.

The man was still thoroughly pipped about the hat and tie, and simply wouldn't rally round.

(Laughter)

A cargo vessel, bound for Athens, sank in the Mediterranean without a trace.

Just as a little bit of context once war broke out,

Sadly it was not to be, the facts of the case were not in dispute, a wave hit the ship and the Mignonette went down.

There were 1,959 total passengers and crew and 1,195 of them actually died.

America wouldn't actually enter the war until April 1917.

Enter Capulet and Nurse.

The air is close, and Jonah gasps.

You shall put your cap on, Khun

In 1816, a French naval ship named The Medusa sank to the bottom of the sea, and 147 seamen managed to get on a raft.

and then I just looked at his Wikipedia page and I saw the end date to 2013 .

Because they haven't worked enough.

So I thought he would be the perfect person to go to to ask about a defining moment in American history.

The moon has gone down.

And the fourth one. One, two, three.

And to some degree that second explosion tends to back that up.

Because by the second day of incubation ... any cells that have undergone reversion mutations ... give rise to revertant colonies like rats leaving a sinking ship.

The sunset is soon.

It'll soon be sunset.

The sun will soon set.

Yes, he's very dedicated.

The sun will be down before long.

An unsinkable boat!

So when people talk about what were the causes what brought the US into war the ones that are typically cited are the unrestricted submarine warfare, the sinking of the Lusitania, the Zimmerman telegram , that was trying to get Mexico to somehow get into a war with the US and reclaim these territories.

The entire town was under water.
