More than a hundred years have passed since the Titanic event, but these events have not been forgotten and people are still discussing various versions of what happened in 1912. Some people believe that the liner manufacturer deliberately set up the collision with the Iceberg, while others are sure that it was a random event due to a crew error.
The conspiracy theory is gaining popularity among conspiracy theorists, according to which a completely different ship went on a voyage instead of the Titanic, and the White Star Line company hid this fact from the public in order to receive insurance payments.
It is believed that the liner Olympic set off on the flight. As much as the company wanted to hide its plan, it was not possible to do this, supporters of the conspiracy theory believe. More than 1,500 people died in the shipwreck.
As their arguments, the conspiracy theorists cite data about the company that owned the Britannica, Titanic and Olympic. It was Olympic who made 4 voyages, and in September 1911 collided with the ship Hawk, which belonged to the military. As a result of legal proceedings, the owner of Olympic was reportedly ordered to pay insurance, but there was no money for this. Then the management had the idea to send on the flight not the Titanic, but the Olympic, which was damaged and in any case would have sunk.
Conspiracy theorists believe that Olympic was renamed Titanic and sent on a journey to recoup their costs. It is noted that photographs of the Titanic during construction and the finished liner differ in various details, including portholes, which can prove the fact of the replacement of ships. This is where the evidence for conspiracy theorists ends, but this version is being considered more and more actively.
