A famous deep sea explorer, Dr Robert Ballard, and his exploration team were following a "debris trail" when they found the boiler of the sunken 'Titanic'. After initial excitement, the 73-year-old said: “One of our watch technicians looked at the clock and said: she sinks in 20 minutes." "That little innocent comment reminded us that we had finally located all those lost souls". This clip was originally from 5 live Daily’s 'I Was There' programme on 4th September 2015.
