8. The Iceberg May Have Been Photographed
Some real Titanic facts may seem invented, and here’s one of them. A large ship, the SMS Prinz Adalbert, had started its journey on April 15, 1912. It was midday, and the chief steward of the steamer saw something rather strange on a nearby iceberg. While he couldn’t tell exactly what it was, he noticed that it had a big red streak. The steward eventually took a photo of it.
At the time, the tragic events of the Titanic were still unknown to those on board the Prinz Adalbert. The steward added a note to the photo, writing, “On the day after the sinking of the Titanic, the liner Prinz Adalbert passed the iceberg present in this photo.” He also wrote that no one in the crew knew anything about the Titanic disaster and that the red paint looked like the damage caused by the iceberg.

This was very interesting but the fact about the photograph was the only one I’d never heard before.
This article was very interesting reading! I really enjoyed it.
Thank you for this info!
This Titanic story gave me goosebumps and just blew my mind. Such a sad and tragic story. That little small word “IF” I had only done this or “IF” I had only done that. So sad…
the makes & blilders of the ship said “not ever God ” can bring this ship down
Excellent with little known facts. Have always been fascinated by the history of the Titanic!! Curious as to how many pets survived the sinking.
It is impossible for his violin to be returned to his fiance who would have been probably over 120 in 2013.
Very interesting . The story of the sinking of the Titanic is very sad and tragic story but yet I love to read it.
Excellent work, the fact about the key is the one that really got to me, something so simple but so much more important.
God proved to man he is not perfect ….so admit your mistakes and move on.live learn and improve.We are at fault when we ignore all the signs or warnings that ‘s right in front of us.The artical was good.My favorite part was about the iceberg with a streak of paint on the side.Yes it was so tragic and could have been prevented.
