The song played during the sinking of the Titanic

Scientists noticed that the music box was always playing while the Titanic sank.

The mysterious music is another element to introduce the story of the Titanic. Scientists noticed a toy in the shape of a pig, which according to historians, cradling a child at the time the child was to be saved in a lifeboat.

The 'pig' belonged to Edith Rosenbaum, American journalist of fashion, then 32 years old.

Edith and 'pig musical' survived the tragic accident in 1912, but the engine sound of the doll crashed. Now the National Maritime Museum in London, managed to repair the toy and made ​​a recording of music, 101 years after the sinking.

The video where you can hear the song played during the most famous shipwreck in the world also shows the X-ray done to the toy during its restoration.

Remarkable! Thanks, Pedro, most interesting.
