Facts About My Research
Why Did I Chose This?
I chose this theory for the reason that it made a lot of rational sense to me. Also, the theory seemed like something that could actually happen, or something that anyone would find realistic. The theory made sense to me because most mistakes that take place in history have been in human error. This is why most of the issues are rarely the machines fault. Also, the the Captain was also mainly to blame due to his extreme ignorance and ego. I say this because even after 5 iceberg warnings the captain still didn’t take any notice, causing him to lose his ship. Next, this theory made more sense compared to the theory that I turned down, or the switching of the Titanic and Olympic. Also, the theory had many things against it in plausibility. For example, do you really think that a crew in the 1910’s could’ve switched out the two biggest ships of the time? I think that it just seems a bit too outlandish. Also, I feel that if the Olympic was switched with the Titanic the crew would’ve known and at least one of the crew members would’ve found out and told. So, for those reasons I dismissed the Olympic and Titanic theory.
