This is quite an exciting and amazing video to digest. I have watched most of it and was totally absorbed in it tonight. It’s certainly part of history. Exciting New Release from the 1986 Titanic Wreckage Expedition x Video of Titanic shipwreck released. The footage was captured in July, 1986 but not made public until this week. The ocean liner sank in 1912, taking down nearly 1,500 passengers, after striking an iceberg. https://t.co/9KsEFvn0NA — Marie Coronel (@10NewsCoronel) February 16, 2023 An article on the NPR website describes what the ship looked like almost 75 years after it sank in 1912 while on its maiden voyage from England to the United States. Newly released footage of a 1986 Titanic dive reveals the ship's haunting interior It wasn't until July of 1986, nearly 75 years after the RMS Titanic's ill-fated voyage, that humans finally set eyes on the ship's sunken remains. Now those remains are, in a way, resurfacing, thanks to the release of more than 80 minutes of uncut footage from the first filmed voyage to the wreck. The research team behind the Titanic's discovery, the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, released the video on Wednesday. Available on YouTube, the footage contains shots of the ship never revealed to the public, including its rust-caked bow, intact railings, a chief officer's cabin and a promenade window. At one point, the camera zeroes in on a chandelier, still hanging, swaying against the current in a haunting state of elegant decay… It took 73 years for a team of American and French researchers to find the vessel in 1985, some 12,500 feet below the ocean's surface. Using cutting-edge sonar imaging technology, the team followed a trail of debris to the site, roughly 350 miles southeast of Newfoundland, Canada. Here is the full video on Youtube This rare, uncut, and unnarrated footage of the wreck of Titanic marks the first time humans set eyes on the ill-fated ship since 1912 and includes many other iconic scenes. Captured in July 1986 from cameras on the human-occupied submersible Alvin and the newly built, remotely operated Jason Junior, most of this footage has never been released to the public.

Titanic is a 1997 American epic romance and disaster film directed, written, co-produced and co-edited by James Cameron. A fictionalized account of the sinking of the RMS Titanic, it stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as members of different social classes who fall in love aboard the ship during its ill-fated maiden voyage. Based on this comment by DK user wordwraith, who wrote that the “Best Titanic views are in 2003 documentary Ghosts of the Abyss, filmed in 2001 on an expedition to the wreck by James Cameron, director of the Titanic movie… it’s extraordinary” I am adding the below video. Thanks, wordwraith. I recall that I’ve seen a bit of the video several years ago. x Vimeo Video Ghosts Of The Abyss from SUALTI Gazetesi on Vimeo.
