Experts believe as many as 1,500 perished on the Titanic, and the wreckage remains at the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean.

“I really enjoyed watching this. The history and journey of the passengers and crew and pairing some of their personal items was morbidly fascinating. The engineers were incredible. Such a tragic event, RIP,” a fan shared.
This person agreed. They wrote, “I watched almost half. The shipwreck is a graveyard. So for us, it should be a humbling experience to see this disaster and respect it.”
Another follower shared a sobering reflection on the Titan submersible and the Titanic. “Still wish there was a way to get it out of the ocean, but that submarine reminded us of the reality.”
But even still, many people want to let the Titanic go.
