yes it is true, "Titanic" was not Titanic
Some people think that the Titanic was swapped with her sister she Olympic after she damaged her prop and had to return to Belfast to be repaired. The builders knew it would be quicker to finish titanic that it would be to fix Olympic. At the time changes were being made to Titanic to make it slightly different from Olympic but to finish Titanic quicker they decided not to make the changes so they remained identical. Some people think they altered Titanic to make it look like Olympic and Olympic to look like Titanic so they could sink the Olympic and get the insurance money.
There is evidence to support this e.g why did the first officer not, when he saw the iceberg reverse the port engine and leave the starboard engine going full ahead with the helm hard over. This would have made the ship turn faster. It was also demonstrated during Titanic's sea trials. A few people even say that the lookouts saw the iceberg at 11:15, 25 minuets before Titanic hit the iceberg, and that the officers on the bridge did nothing.
However there's also evidence against it e.g after the Titanic sank the director of the White Star Line, Bruce Ismay, lead an isolated life in Scotland and rarely did anything in public. Why would his plan have been to sink the Titanic and then do that. And alot of important people died on Titanic like the ships architect Thomas Andrews who stayed on the ship when it sank and died. They would not have planned to kill these important people.
Nobody really knows if the ships were swapped. I don't think they were.

Did a person like Jack in the movie The Titanic really do what he did?
The story of Jack in the movie Titanic is total fiction, as is most of the Titanic plot in the movie. The real tragedy of the Titanic where hundreds died on the ship's maiden voyage after the ship hit an iceberg in the north Atlantic Ocean bears little resemblance to the Hollywood blockbuster. The British movie 'A Night to Remember', made in black and white, is a far closer portrayal of what actually happened.
