You have no idea how quickly I made this after thinking about it.

The forward tower, a large portion of the ship spanning from the boat deck just behind the 3rd funnel and going down to about C deck. It was caused by the structural damage caused when she broke just forward of the 3rd funnel. At some point during the decent the portion flew off and landed some distance away. There were several smaller sections that came off as well, but not as big as the forward tower.
Idk what to title this
Happy Birthday to Robert Ballard!!

Rare photo of the Homeric after she gets caught by Olympic
Homeric's lifehacks!
Eat a hole in you cake, and steal your neighbor's! If the neighbor turns round, you can pretend to eat yours, and no one will notice anything!
But Olympic's better to turn around...
The Olympic on your arm allows every punch you have to be lethal force.
HEHEHEHE BOAT TATTOOS
my mom yelled at me but we ball
PREACH GIRL PREACH
People need to understand that the Titanic was NOT a revolutionary ship. There seems to be some kind of stigma in media that the Titanic was a state of the art ship with all sorts of amenities that had never been seen on another ship before. No, that was the OLYMPIC. Titanic was literally just a COPY OF OLYMPIC with some changes here and there, such as the addition of a few more first class staterooms and extended public rooms. That's why there's so few images and videos of her. She was literally just another Olympic. Did you know we've never seen the Titanic's Grand Staircase; we've only ever seen the Olympic's? That's because- you guessed it- Titanic's staircase was a clone of Olympic's!!!
I don’t mean to be that guy but the 3rd one doesn’t show the Majestic, it instead shows either the SS Pittsburgh, Regina, Laurentic, or Doric.

Sorry babe the RMS Mauretania dazzle camouflage socks stay ON during sex.
With all the drama going on with the Olympics, let's take a moment to remember the ORIGINAL Olympic
Seems like the liner SS Leviathan
The sunken Oceanliner, Dredge
Labeling Lusitania as Olympic should be considered a criminal offense
Just got done watching "Titanic in Colour", a brand new documentary. Turns out Mike Brady is in it and I literally went "OH MY GOD IT'S MIKE BRADY" right before his name card popped up and my mom (whom I was watching with) looked at me like I was insane. Anyway it was a fantastic documentary right up until they used footage of Lusitania and labelled her as Olympic, even going to the extent of colourising her with White Star funnels
I've developed a new hyperfixation which has links to a previously existing one.
Previously existing one: maritime disasters
New one: ocean liners
