The secret of sinking

1985, marine surveyors finally found the Titanic, which had been sleeping for 73 years, at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. When they were investigating the wreckage, they found a big round hole with a diameter of exactly 90 cm in the front lower part of the starboard side. It is puzzling that the edge of this big round hole is very smooth and regular, as if it were formed by machining with a compasses-shaped tool.

After a comprehensive study of underwater photography and measurement of the mysterious circular hole on the starboard side of the Titanic with the international expert group, Sezul, a naval ship expert of the Royal Navy, confirmed that the Titanic was damaged by a powerful laser beam and the bottom cabin was flooded to death, so it was reasonable to leave irregular hole marks on the nose or around the hull.

Or the hull steel plate appears irregular cracking phenomenon, but this is not the case. However, this statement is not true. A 90 cm round hole can't pose any threat to the Titanic at all. As we all know, titanium has 16 watertight compartments, and any four of them will not sink. It is impossible to sink a boat with a 90 cm hole filled with an umbrella.
