Then at 12:15 with no christening, (smashing of a bottle on the side of the hull to wish her good luck) triggers are released and with the help of 20 tons of liquid soap and train oil the Huge 25,000 ton hull of Titanic slowly starts move off the Slipway and slide in to the river, watched by almost 100,000 spectators along the Albert Quay. As people cheer and wave, tugs blowing there whistles the Titanic enters the waters in just 62 seconds traveling twice her own length at almost 12 knots.
