Has anyone else read or heard of a fire that was burning on the Titanic? It started from the day she left Southampton and burned until the day before she sank. I can't remember which deck (one of the bottom ones) but there was a theory that this fire contributed to weakening the ships hull, making her susceptible to even more damage than what would have normally occured.
I'm pretty sure I've read that in one of my books. Anyone else? |

yes, it was a coal fire in one of the coal bunkers...it was under control before Sunday...and I've also heard that it made the hull weaker, and I can certainly understand the theory. But, then again, I've also heard that it didn't have anything to do with weakening the hull.
