I've heard the same story, but if they wanted to sink it without anyone dying, don't ya think they would have taken Andrews up on his idea to put more life boats on it?? I dunno, just my thought. I don't think they sank it for insurance. Just too many loose ends they would have had to think about before going throught with it, if it were true. :)

I was listening to the radio the other day and they were talking about titanic and all the different storys floating about one interesting one was that titanic was meant to sink for insurance reasons but that no one was supposed to get hurt or die. Im not saying i believe this but its food for thought. It went into detail that had reson to it.Was wondering have any of you heard like wise?If so what do you think?
