New BBC Site with Free, Comprehensive Titanic Videos

The 1997 movie Titanic romanticized while also reflecting the tragedy of Titanic’s sinking and the loss of nearly 1,500 lives.

Now, thanks to the BBC, you can get a new perspective and rediscovery of Titanic and its wreckage that’s equally compelling, wondrous, and, yet, educational.

The BBC has a new site solely dedicated to the journey, facts, sinking and wreckage of the Titanic. The site contains in-depth information through the use of online film footage. If you’re reading this, you can watch the videos - for free.
