All of this information was revealed in a series of recent dives done by the History Channel, and more is being discovered almost every week.' These peices, far to the east of the bulk of the hull, indicate that the parts broke free of the rest of the ship before the bow and the stern had fully filled with water. ' This theory has been shown in recent deep sea dives that have recorded the shape of two of the recently found parts of the ship's bottom, which are believed to account for about 70 feet of the bottom of the hull, the spot where the ship shattered. As a result, experts say, the ship's massive bulk folded it in half, shattering the bottom off from the rest of the hull and sealing the fate of the massive ocean liner. However, the design of the Titanic's flexing joint was not ideal rather than a ball shaped joint found in a later version of equally long ships, the Titanic's seems to be more abrupt and unable to deal with the massive amount of pressure that it wouldn've had to endure for days. The engineers who designed the Titanic created a large flexible joint in the middle of the ship to allow the ship to flex with the waves and prevent the ship from searing if the middle was caught in the valley between a pair of large waves.

Smaller ships would be able to ride oceanic waves however, the Titanic was simply too long to ride up and down with large waves. ' An additional problem with the Titanic's design was the ship's incredible length.
