The Titanic slowly makes her way through a field of icebergs that gets denser the deeper she goes. (Titanic – The Hidden Evidenc)

A Sample From “Titanic – The Hidden Evidence”

The Iceberg Was Only the Beginning

History teaches us that a collision with an iceberg sank the Titanic. But Senator William Alden Smith suspected a much darker reality—one that the world wasn’t ready to believe.

In this fast-paced work of narrative non-fiction, aerospace engineer John Wickman brings a forensic eye to the world’s most famous maritime disaster. Renowned for his reputation in solving complex engineering failures—including his work for NASA investigating the Space Shuttle Challenger accident—Wickman applies the same scientific rigor to the Titanic.

New Evidence Reveals for the First Time

  • The Titanic was only going half speed or less at the time of the accident.
  • The Titanic sailed with unfinished rooms, missing equipment, and watertight doors that did not always close.
  • The Titanic’s senior wireless operator saw an iceberg off to the side of the Titanic 10 minutes before the accident.
  • The Titanic was already turning away from the iceberg when the lookout called the bridge to report an iceberg.
  • How the Titanic would have stayed afloat for at least 24 hours if not for the first hydrogen gas explosion.

“Titanic – The Hidden Evidence” reveals startling evidence that the collision with an iceberg did not lead to the Titanic’s sinking; rather, it was a series of subsequent explosions. The initial damage to the Titanic was survivable. It could have remained afloat for at least 24 hours, long enough for everyone to be rescued.

Through the process of electrolysis, the ship’s electrical systems converted seawater into massive quantities of volatile hydrogen and chlorine gas. Because the Titanic’s engineers did not cut electrical power to the submerged sections, the electrolysis process began the moment the salt water hit the wires. From there, it was only a matter of time before a simple spark ignited the gas, triggering the explosions that doomed the vessel.

For decades, survivor accounts of “terrible blasts” were dismissed because the source was unknown. Now, their stories align with what happened. Multiple passengers described an explosion so severe that the entire ship shifted sideways, knocking people off their feet.

Now we do! Watch the video below and see seawater electrolysis in action for yourself.

The books’ conclusions are backed by physical evidence found at the bottom of the Atlantic. The starboard hole in the bow reveals metal that is bulged outward, a classic sign of an internal explosion.

The Titanic wreckage shows a large hole centered around the Gangway door on Deck E. A close-up view of the hole shows the bulged area in more detail. You can also see how the decks inside are undeformed, as an entire section of the E deck floor is missing, as well as the deck plates above and below. The missing deck plates were blown away during the explosion. 

About the Author - John Wickman

John Wickman has been an aerospace engineer since 1973. He has designed propulsion systems for the MX missile, Small Launch Vehicle, rocket and jet engines for use on Mars, rocket engines using lunar soil propellant and solid propellant satellite thrusters. During his career, Mr. Wickman established a reputation for finding the cause of engineering failures and identifying the solution. He did this for the Minuteman ICBM and Polaris missiles, which lead to re-manufacturing programs for both of them. After the Space Shuttle Challenger accident, Wickman was hired by Morton-Thiokol to find out why the solid rocket boosters failed and provide guidelines for the new design. His engineering experience was crucial in analyzing the Titanic blueprints, wreckage and sifting through eyewitness accounts and documents to determine the factual reasons for the Titanic sinking.
