Titanic

The R.M.S. Titanic was the 2nd Olympic Class Passenger Vessel operated by White Star Line. The ship was built from 1909-1911, alongside its sister, the Olympic, hence the name of the class of ships. Titanic is 1 of history's most majestic ships that had ever slipped beneath the waves. Titanic, like her sisters, Olympic & Britannic (originally to be named Gigantic), had 4 funnels. However, most people are concerned by this fact, as only 3 of the ship's funnels were functional with the ability to pump out smoke from the ship's boiler rooms, whereas the funnel behind the other 3 was a fake & was used for looks.

## History:

Plans for the Olympic Class vessels were planned out long before construction. The White Star Line was famous for its finest ships, of which all names of their ships were consisted after definitions & ended with "IC", inluding Oceanic, Majestic, Germanic, Homeric & Georgic. Some of the vessels were commanded by Captain Edward J. Smith, who was also the 1st captain of the Titanic's sister, Olympic. The Olympic Class Ships were designed with tons of luxury by Bruce Ismay. Work began before the dawn of the 1910's decade. Olympic started 1st, as the lead ship of the class, hence the name. Titanic was the next ship to be started. Following her launch in 1911, like most passenger ships, Titanic underwent sea trials & completed them successfully. Her maiden voyage would be as most translantic vessels' maiden voyages would go: from Southhampton, England to Manhattan, New York in the United States of America. Olympic had travelled to New York beforehand. Then, it was Titanic's turn. The ship set sail for maiden voyage on April 10th, 1912. She stopped in France & Ireland before continuing her adventure to New York city. She was 1 of the largest ships of her time. Although it was said that she was "unsinkable", the truth was that a few days into the voyage, the new ship would meet a tragic death. On April 14th, 1912, Captain Smith had cancelled the lifeboat test for later on, yet to be fair, the ship did not have enough lifeboats. It was said that the ship would have 48 lifeboats, but the number was dropped by 28, so the ship only carried 20 lifeboats. Later that night, as 2 lookouts were up in the crowsnest on the ship's front mast, without any bernoculars, due to not having access to the key room, they spotted an iceberg in front of the ship, as the moon was nowhere in the sky at that time. The crew did everything they could to save the Titanic from collision to make it to New York safely, but the ship hit the iceberg & damaged her 5 front compartments, although she was designed to survive 4. It took a while for everybody to figure out what was going on after the ship had ported around the hit iceberg & turned toward her starboard side a few miles in front of the iceberg, until they realized that the ship would inevitably sink. To make matters worse, once Captain Smith ordered to fire emergency rockets into the sky to call for help, the crew of the Cunard's Californian informed the captain what was going on, only for him to pass it off as nothing to worry about. Titanic & her passengers were doomed. All the lifeboats were put into the water, but still not enough lifeboats. Among the survivors were Molly Brown, Ms. Unsinkable & the foolish Ismay who, going against the women & children order, grabbed a young child passing him/her off as his own & sneaking into a lifeboat. By the time the ship's forecastle was underwater, Captain Smith was instantly swamped to death by water shattering through the glass windows into the driver's room. By 2:10am, the front funnel collapsed over to port-bow, killing some of the victimized passengers & the Grand Staircase behind it was flooded by the shattering glass dome, killing even more of the trapped passengers inside. The panic began to rise as the ship's 3 propellers were now visibly stuck out of the water. By 2:18, the electricity was suddenly killed out trapping some of victims permenenly in the dark. The ship suddenly broke in half right underneath the 3rd funnel, causing it & the 4th funnel to collape at the same time. The detatched bow dragged the stern vertical before breaking away & plummeting to bottom of the ocean. By 2:20, the stern of the RMS Titanic followed after the bow & sank to the bottom of the ocean. More over 1,500 innocent civilians died from hypothermia. It was a very sad night. The survivors were eventually rescued as the sun began to rise at 4:30 by the RMS Carpathia & taken to New York to avenge the Titanic's ill-fated tragedy. The ship was remarked as a hero to the survivors & their future desendants. As a result, ship companies were forced to add more lifeboats after learning of the terrible disaster. The Titanic was not discovered until September 1st, 1985. 12 years later, 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures & Spyglass Entertainment relased James Cameron's iconic 1997 film of the same name as the ship. James Cameron has been working with Robert D. Billard to examin the death of the Titanic. People had made plans to lift the ship back out from her death grave & have restored. Unfortunately, because the ship was deteriorating, it was left there to suffer, but some of her treasures were recovered & stored as museum property for tourists to look at, especially the big piece that came from the ship's hull. 100 years after the disaster, Australian billionair business man Clive Palmer announced plan to build a replica cruise called "Titanic II", which was unknowingly named after the bad-review film of the same name from 2010, released by The Asylum Studios. The ship replica would consist of a modern-day styled replica of the ill-fated 4-Stacker, but with modern equipment & technology, safety-wise, as well as 20 extra safety boats on the lowerdecks beneath the superstructure. The ship's 2 front funnels would have viewing radar systems inside, while the other 2 funnels would have power for the ship's technology systems. The original propellers would be replaced modern azipod propellers, as well as a sliced-in-half non-moving rudder. The ship's boilers would be replaced with modern engines for more room for capacity.

## Channel Appearances:

The Titanic has made some parts in 833time's work, sometimes.

Prequel Story: Probably the 1st video the ship ever appeared in, just a model of it.

Birthday Week: Poster of her fate is shown.

My Little Pony: Next Generation- The Temple Book: Mentioned off screen, but never makes an actual appearence.

833time YTPs: Makes a few brief appearances in "Iron Man's Hypno Cure for Fluttershy drives Cap angry", seen in the distance in "Heavy Flips out on Ponies", stars as a supporting figure in "Ghost of the Past" after being magically summoned by Phil Swift (even appears on a DeviantArt picture based on the YTP).

Wizarding Plague: Shown in a backstory of the Nightmare Girls, before the voyage & when the ship broke in half. It was later shown in a book Hina is reading about the disaster. She is having trouble pronouncing the ship's name until Rainbow Dash helped her.

While the actual ship may be trapped underwater, the Tianic will continue to make some appearences.

## Trivia:

Titanic's passanger carrier, Nomadic, was operated by the White Star Line & is still around today as a tourist attraction outside of a Titanic Museum in Belfast.

Titanic isn't the only 4-Funnel Vessel that met a tragic end by sinking, other ships like Lusitania & Britannic went down after her during World War 1.

In some art, the 4th funnel is functional.

There are animations not related to 833time that rumor that a gigantic octopus went down with the ship, carrying it in 1 piece, though this is entirely false.

As noticed by viewers, the Titanic seems to have been magically saved from the ocean floor & completely restored.

Each other original ship on 833time has included 4 funnels, maily due to inspiration.
