Something I learn quite recently and most Titanic articles tend not to mention: "The Olympic-class ocean liners were a trio of British ocean liners built by the Harland & Wolff shipyard for the White Star Line during the early 20th century. They were Olympic (1911), Titanic (1912), and Britannic (1915). Unlike the other ships in the class, Olympic had a long career spanning 24 years from 1911 to 1935. " [1] The Britannic was sunk by an explosion caused by a naval mine, apparently planted by a WWI German submarine. And the Titanic... well, we all know what happen to the Titanic, don't we... :-P 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic-class_ocean_liner https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic-class_ocean_liner EDIT: More wiki-trivia [2] * The titanic was 269.1 m long. * The largest ship these days (the Seawise Giant) is an oil tanker 458.46 m long. * The largest passenger ship: the Oasis (362 m long). 2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_ships https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_ships
