Real Photos From Lusitania's Sinking | These Pictures Survived the Disaster

On May 7th, 1915 the Cunard luxury liner Lusitania was torpedoed and sunk off the coast of Ireland. 20 year old wireless operator David McCormick stopped to take some photos of the scene and his photos were long thought lost - except that the damaged film was published in an issue of the 'Daily Sketch' magazine at the time. Liam Sharpe, researcher and 3D modeler, has recently reviewed the film in close detail and thinks there may be more to this 110-year old ruined media than meets the eye.
