The Titanic Never Actually Sank (Conspiracy Theory)

Go into the pudding and find the truth! - You want me to-- - I want you to go into the puddling! ( music playing ). Welcome back. Yes indeed. Welcome back to hard truth, Link. Is your brain ready to grow three sizes. like one of those dinosaurs that they put into water? Uh, as long as my skull grows with it. Because I've got hot news straight off the presses of 1912. The Titanic never sank! And the truth will shock you!

Buckle up, buttercup. Okay, great. - Link. - Hey, you got a thing, huh? And that thing. - Okay. - Link? Okay. Okay. Do you know what "truth" stands for? Something tells me, no matter how I answer, you're still gonna tell me.

"Titanic really under that hoax.". ( growls ). Okay, you all know the fable, but let me go through the details. just to refresh your frickin' memory. The beautiful luxury cruise liner. "RMS Titanic". shipped off for its "maiden voyage". on April 10th, "1912.". It sailed for several days. before striking an "iceberg". off the coast of "Newfoundland.". The ship's "sinking" lost about 1,500 "passengers,".

including Jack, who died even though Rose totally had room on that door. That's a conversation for another time. The aftermath of this tragic "accident". caused worldwide outrage. and a complete reworking. of maritime safety "procedures.". Of course none of that is true. Don't touch my rod, man. My pointer. I should probably call it a pointer. Please let engineer, writer,

and lifelong Titanic researcher Robin Gardiner. get right to the point. and open your eyes. to his easy-to-follow theory. Man: Robin, the floor is yours. Go ahead. Gardiner: Right, well, "Titanic" wasn't a--. it wasn't a single class. There was no "Titanic" class of ships. It was the "Olympic" class. And the first of those ships actually--. construction began on the first of those ships, "Olympic" herself, shortly before construction of "Titanic.". There was a third one,

but that wasn't started until after, well, anything that concerns us--. have already occurred. Yes, as that makes absolutely clear, the Titanic never really sunk because it was swapped. for a near identical sister ship called the "Olympic,". in a dual scheme involving insurance fraud. and violent robber baron takeover. of the United States economy. Okay, now you're thinking, how did all this happen? Huh? How did all this--. I've got a chart for that, Link. ...happen?

( reading ). Both of these boats were owned by. the International Mercantile Marine Corporation, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. ( chuckles ). The "Olympic" sailed first. and was found at fault. when it struck a military ship, costing the company lots of money, and then the two ships were so similar, it would be hard to tell the difference. unless you're paying attention. Are you paying attention, Link? - Yes. - 'Cause I'm dropping truth bombs! Under the cloak of moneyed secrecy,

the "Olympic" became the "Titanic". with a simple paint job. Same ship, painted because of insurance fraud. Okay, I know what you're thinking. Who could pull off this kind of massive insurance fraud? - Well... - Who could pull off... Ever heard of J.P. Morgan? Link, do you know what "J.P. Morgan" stands for? Oh, wow, you've done this all ahead of time. ( reading ).

( laughter ). You never saw that in there. Okay, J.P. Morgan was considered a robber baron. That means belonging to a class of extremely wealthy men. who nearly control all industry. And I'm not gonna get bogged down. with the extremely boring and confusing facts. Let me just put it out in chart form. Conspiracies can be complicated and difficult. USA was bad at money.

JP said, "Hey, I got money, USA.". USA's like, "Thanks.". Other rich guys are like, ( grumbles ) "That's upsetting.". JP's like, "I don't care. I can get more money.". All the rich guys are like, "No!". And now they're all dead. Multiple rich dudes. that were in disagreement with JP Morgan died. in the "Titanic"--. "Titanic"--. crash. I know you're still having trouble. Why do you keep trying to make my pointer smaller? Because you're poking me in the eye with it.

Okay, at the time, Morgan wanted the U.S. to create a federal reserve bank, and there were three powerful men. who were opposed to it: millionaire John Jacob Astor, mighty magnate Benjamin Guggenheim, and Macy's co-owner Isidor Straus, and they all super died on the "Titanic.". This is true. All this was made even more suspicious. considering J.P. Morgan was supposed to be on the "Titanic" himself. He had a giant private suite, but he cancelled at the last minute. because he felt like it. I wouldn't cancel a frickin' Carnival cruise. even if I had a standard room.

Hello! Something's up. In summary... J.P. Morgan intentionally planned. for the "Titanic" to sink, and of course. he could be fined with insurance fraud. As the old saying goes, "Everything is a rich man's trick,". and Morgan's disappearing ship and rivals. is the greatest magic trick of all. You know the old saying, Link. I sense you're still doubting. Pick a card.

Any card. Any card. Yeah. Just pick-- just pick a frickin' card, man. Link, what does that card say? "The 'Titanic' was a hoax.". Boom! What are the chances that you picked the only--. Here's another one. ...two cards that say, ( together ) "The 'Titanic' was a hoax.". Out of 52 cards, you picked the two. What are the chances?

Probably 100%. Okay, now, this is almost too convenient, don't you think? Because isn't magic all about distraction? And what if this super-convincing theory. about the ship J.P. Morgan missed. is just a distraction from a truer truth--. the truthest truth. Hold on to your horses, Link. Yes, folks, we've all been duped by a duper. Here's what's really up. J.P. Morgan's famous absence. is meant to cover up another famous absence. from the "Titanic.". Milton Hershey, founder of Hershey's chocolates,

an already wealthy candy robber baron himself, put down a $300 deposit. to secure a room on the "Titanic,". but due to "illness," or "work stress"--. the stories conflict--. he left a week early. Until recent history, Hershey has enjoyed massive uncontested success. despite being terrible chocolate. It is objectively horrible chocolate. However, Milton Hershey. colluded with J.P. Morgan and associates. to murder everyone in their way. to secure his gross chocolate empire,

and if you don't believe me... the proof is in the pudding. In the pudding, Link. Go into the pudding and find the truth. - You want me to-- - I want you to go into the pudding! What's so hard--. Put your hands... in the pudding!

You're wondering why we're taking a three-week break? ( laughter ). Mm-hm. There's where the truth lies. What is... What are the chances? Link, would you mind opening that bag for me? Try not to get any pudding on the thing that's inside of it.

Link, you know what "Hershey" stands for? ( reading ). Wowza! That's "yowza.". Yeah, I mean, it depends on what part of the country you're from. Yowza! What are the chances that that was in the pudding? I mean, if this isn't any clearer, I don't know what could be. That is the real story behind the not-sinking of the "Titanic,". and why Hershey's chocolate, which is objectively awful and terrible,

continues to be such a big deal. You're welcome, Link, and Mythical Beasts. Tried to make it a W. ( laughter ). I rest my rod. Thank you for liking, commenting, and subscribing. You know what time it is. Hi, I'm Brandon. And I'm Gabriel. We're in Svalbard. Longyearbyen. That's a polar bear.
