Titanic : born in Belfast.
A revealing look into the construction of the Titanic, one of the most famous ships in history. Filmed at the Belfast shipyard, the birthplace of the great luxury liner. Includes many historic photographs, as well as rare interviews of eyewitnesses of the construction and launch of the ill-fated liner. The sinking of the Titanic was one of the worst maritime disasters in history. The liner struck an iceberg about 95 miles south of the Grand Banks on April 14, 1912. Of the more than 2,200 persons aboard, about 1,513 died, including American millionaires John Jacob Astor IV, Benjamin Guggenheim, and Isidor Straus. The ship had been proclaimed as unsinkable, but five of the 16 watertight compartments were compromised by an iceberg and sank in less than three hours.
