I did paste some of it, but i also typed and added parts

i just did this so i could interest the public

Yes well it was rather long, so if anything it may bore them, certainly not me though, i enjoy reading posts on this site.

Anyway, I think that the open window's on Britannic played a big role in the speed of the sinking, does anyone agree.

A bet ure glad Bell that those exams where cancelled eh

Oh my God yes, that is fantastic news was't it. there not due till after the easter holidays at the earliest, 3 weeks away, ahahaahha

Bac to Britannic,

good, if britanic was still here, she would have been great, broad

Easter's tomorrow. do you guys celebrate it at a different time than us? I just glanced through your post Johno, but I have heard different theories about the sinking of her. The mine one is the most popular, but I've heard of the possibility that she may have been hit by a torpedo. Have either of you two heard this theory?

Yes I have heard of that, there is also another Idea that the cargo was ignited causing an explosion. This would be down to the fact that Britannic many times brechead the convention.

Hello Bell,

*Idea that the cargo was ignited causing an explosion*

Since a 1999 exploration revealed that the cargo holds were largely empty, it's a much-discredited idea. As always, it depends on your views. However, it seems likely that a cargo explosion -- if one had occured -- would have been deduced from the wreck's condition. It hasn't.

*This would be down to the fact that Britannic many times brechead the convention.*

She was certainly alledged to have breached the Geneva convention, by Germany. Whether she did is another matter for debate.

Best wishes,

Mark.

Could it of been the coal?

possibly but I doubt it.
