The Wild Conspiracy Theory That the Titanic Never Sank - Believers say one gigantic boat was swapped for another for insurance money. Here’s the truth.

When the Titanic sank in 1912, it shocked the world. The limits of human innovation were cruelly displayed with the destruction of such a technically remarkable ship.
But a conspiracy theory that has crept up online in recent years asks the question, most recently on Reddit: Was it actually the Titanic that sank?

We know. It sounds bonkers. But bear with us.


Everyone seems to agree on one fact: A ship really did sink in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on April 15, 1912, and approximately 1,500 passengers aboard that ship died. The conspiracy simply suggests the Titanic wasn’t actually the technical marvel the ship's parent company, the White Star Line, had promised. Rather, the White Star Line swapped ships for the voyage from Southampton to New York and the ship billed as the top-of-the-line Titanic was actually an older ship: the Olympic. What’s more, the conspiracy theory suggests, the entire crash was an insurance scam gone wrong.

It was a secret submarine no doubt.

It really wasn't an ice berg either. A giant alien spaceship, having come through an atmospheric layer of ice and was covered in ice, crashed into the ocean and the Titanic ran into it. It's why the look outs didn't spot it until it was too late.....

There is too much proof, and too much recovered evidence that would overset the idea of a 'double' of the Titanic.

The simpler conspiracy is that the Titanic Captain and Crew were instructed to go faster and through more treacherous icy waters than necessary in order to make it to New York in record time and get the headline!

The ship was eventually taken over by the CIA and this is where they are keeping JFK, Elvis and Lynyrd Skynyrd.
