Scientists have filmed a unique video of the sunken Titanic and showed previously unknown details
OceanGate Expeditions, a deep-sea research company, has released the first 8K video of the Titanic wreck. Modern technologies and the quality of the image allowed scientists to examine previously unseen details on the deck and in the bow of the liner.
The footage was posted on the company's YouTube channel. 110 years after the Titanic disaster, this is the first video with such a high level of detail (to watch, scroll to the end of the page).
OceanGate Expeditions expert and diver Rory Golden commented: "It's amazing that after all these years we've discovered something new that we couldn't explore before because the technology didn't allow it."

In particular, the scientists were able to see and examine in detail the famous bow of the ship, on a copy of which Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet stood in the feature film about the legendary liner, as well as the port anchor, the number one hull, a huge anchor chain, each link of which weighs approximately 91 kilograms, the number one cargo hold, and massive bronze spires.

As a reminder, the Titanic sank off the coast of Newfoundland (Canada) on April 15, 1912, as a result of a collision with an iceberg during its maiden voyage from Southampton (England) to New York (USA). This passenger liner was considered unsinkable, as well as the largest and most luxurious by the standards of the time. Of the 2,200 people on board, including millionaires and expats, only 712 managed to escape. Many passengers and crew members drowned or froze to death in the water.
As reported by OBOZREVATEL, earlier a video of an American woman named Maddie feeding a flock of huge alligators from her hands went viral online. Viewers were surprised by how calmly and calmly the carnivorous reptile keeper did her job.
