The Ramsgate Historical Society published an account of the
event:
It transpired that a number of bluejackets were cleaning a live
torpedo on the forward part of the ship, when the projectile exploded.
The concussion was terrific and immediately there was a huge burst of
flame which seemed to envelope the ship.
Men who were on the forward part of the decks were simply blown to
atoms, but marvellous to relate, three who were standing on the
raised gun platform in the immediate vicinity were uninjured.
For a moment or two they stood as though petrified, and then, to the
amazement of those in the vicinity, walked off onto the harbour wall.
The deck plating of the ship was torn and twisted as though made of
tin, and huge pieces of brass and iron, woodwork and splinters of
torpedo casing, were hurled, with fragments of human beings, hundreds
of feet into the air.
The few men who were below at breakfast must have been simply burned
alive, so intense was the heat from the flames
