What REALLY Happened After the Titanic Sank? | Titanic Part 3

The Titanic sank on 15 April 1912 — but what happened after the ship disappeared beneath the Atlantic?

In the final part of our Titanic series, Nikki and Cheryl go beyond the famous sinking to uncover what happened to the survivors, the dead, and the wreckage left behind. As survivors waited in freezing lifeboats, the RMS Carpathia raced towards them. But rescuing those who survived was only the beginning. Hundreds of people were still missing in the icy Atlantic, and recovery ships were sent back to search for the dead.

In this episode of Killers, Cults and Queens, we get into the darker side of the Titanic disaster: the bodies recovered from the ocean, the difficult process of identifying victims, burials at sea, the aftermath for survivors, the investigations into why Titanic sank, and the safety changes that followed.

We also look at some of the biggest Titanic questions and myths, including:

⚓ Why did Titanic's distress signal give the wrong location?

⚓ Why were so many Titanic lifeboats launched with empty seats?

⚓ What happened to the bodies left in the Atlantic?

⚓ How many Titanic victims were recovered?

⚓ What happened to J. Bruce Ismay after surviving?

⚓ What happened to Titanic's sister ship Britannic?

⚓ When was the Titanic wreck finally discovered?

⚓ What did the 1997 Titanic movie get right — and wrong?

⚓ And, of course… could Jack and Rose REALLY have both fitted on the door?

The Titanic disaster killed more than 1,500 people and changed maritime safety forever. But the story didn't end when the ship sank. This is the final episode in our three-part Titanic series.
