Titanic Survivors have compared the voices of the drowning people to that of the sound of people cheering in a sports stadium. As many as 1,635 people perished, with the sinking of the Titanic.

Although I've never seen any movies about Titanic, I took a lot of interest in this ship as a child after seeing a good drawing of the ship sinking that an older boy in my junior school had drawn, which was placed on a wall within the school hall showing the pupils drawings.
That was the first time I saw and learned about the ship after the schoolboy's drawing of it caught me eye and so I wanted to learn more about the ship. I was curious why the ship was sinking in the drawing.
I get tearful whenever I watch interviews with the survivors of RMS Titanic describing their experiences of what happened to them and what they heard and saw on that grand and luxurious ship.
It's sad hearing the way the poorer people onboard the ship were treated as 3rd class citizens.... and hearing how upon the launch of the exquisite ship that she was branded in the media as being 'unsinkable', before she made her maiden voyage across the Atlantic (her first and last voyage.)
The sinking of the ship remains an elusive mystery.
I don't know what it is about the Titanic, but there's something about this particular ship that intrigues me more than any other ship.
My mum took me to visit the Mary Rose Ship Museum on the south coast and she took a lot of interest in this famous ship.... it's also an intriguing ship and it also remains a mystery as to why it sunk.

It was once said that Britain ruled the waves, and that's no surprise given the amount of time and money that was dedicated to building the world's greatest fleet of ships. Some of these ships still survive, and BritEvents takes a look at what we think are the top ten historic ships, now open to the public.
The British Navy has existed for hundreds of years, and in that time has been praised for its range and reach, the excellence of its manpower, the power of its weaponry, and the quality of the ships themselves.
From the early days of the service up until recent war efforts, the ships that have served as vessels under the monarchy have been the subjects of prose, song, poetry, art, and volumes of military history.
Today, many of these queens of the deep blue sea have been restored to their former glory and are public museums. These museum ships are funded and maintained by various organisations in addition to the British government, and draw tourists by the thousands from all over the world to the British isles to see them.
Here are our top ten historic ships, now open for your viewing pleasure.
