Warship that sank in 1908 found off U.K. coast, revealing "final moments" before over half the crew died

TL;DR

The HMS Tiger, a torpedo boat destroyer that sank in 1908, has been located off the Isle of Wight.
The ship sank after colliding with HMS Berwick, an event that killed over half of the 57 crewmembers.
A dive team spent five years locating the wreck and found instruments suggesting the ship maintained speed and direction before the collision.
Relics discovered include a compass, torpedo tubes, guns, ammunition, an anchor, and the ship's bell.
New legislation will protect shipwrecks like HMS Tiger once they are found.
ProjectXplore also found the wreck of HMS Nottingham last year.
