A size comparison between the Titanic and a modern cruise ship. When Titanic was constructed, it represented an impressive feat for its time and held the distinction of being the largest ship in the world. Accommodating a total of 3,353 passengers, including 900 crew members, Titanic was renowned for its size. However, if we compare it to present-day cruise ships, we can observe some notable differences. Titanic had a length of 882 feet, whereas the current "Wonder of the Seas" cruise ship measures 1,187 feet, making it approximately 35% longer than Titanic. Furthermore, it boasts a passenger capacity of up to 8,000 individuals. It is important to note, though, that the Wonder of the Seas is considerably larger than the majority of modern cruise ships. In terms of length, Titanic is comparable to many of today's cruise ships. However, it falls short when it comes to width and height. The width of Titanic, from one side to the other, measured 92.5 feet. In contrast, modern cruise ships typically have a width of around 120 feet, making them approximately 22% larger than Titanic in this dimension. Additionally, Titanic had a height of nearly 104 feet and consisted of only 9 passenger decks. In comparison, contemporary cruise ships are approximately 190 feet tall, on average, and feature 12-14 passenger decks, effectively doubling the size of Titanic in terms of height. In summary, while Titanic was an impressive ship for its time, today's cruise ships, exemplified by the "Wonder of the Seas," have surpassed it in size. These modern vessels are longer, wider, and taller, accommodating a significantly larger number of passengers across more decks.

On the night of the 14th of April 1912, the 'unsinkable' Titanic struck an iceberg with deadly consequences. Hear the stories of what happened on that fateful night. Dan is also joined by @Timmaltin to debunk some of the myths that surround Titanic. shows.acast.com/dansnowshistor…
