Thank you for joining in everyone, i'll tot them up and reply

24 already answered but a bit of extra info

this is where the alleged swap between the titanic and its sister ship the olympica that was damaged beyond repair

not sure if i got the sisterships name totaly correct but it was damaged so it too was also in dry dock when teh titanic was and many have claimed that teh ships were so alike they simply swapped a few things and sank the olymica although it was now disguised as the titanic and teh real titanic continued to ssail under the name olympica

watched a program on sky 1 about it both argueing for and against the conspiracy

did you know that all the film footage of the titanic sailing with the tug boats is not realy the titanic as the titanic sank before it was ever caught on film sailing

if you look closely you can see where the ships name has been scraped out on the film reel

the differences between the titanic and sister ship were so few you cant tell just by looking
