The Titanic

[dronefromsector7G]

This has made me extremely sad. Human beings proving yet again that they are a disgusting stain on Planet Earth.

They could’ve just dropped Eamonn Holmes down there ffs

You would have done, it just would have been Harry Potter or whatever other film was out at the time

1997. Pearl Harbour would have sealed the deal

Can’t stand Harry Potter and shit like they. Wizards and orks and stuff. Specky ****.

Just imagine that the Titanic lookout had seen the iceberg earlier, or raised the alarm quicker , the captain had slowed down, or turned the wheel in the opposite direction then the Titanic wouldn't be where it is today, the timeline would be completly different . Decisions made a hundred years ago still shaping the history of the Titanic today .

All the lessons learned from the Titanic would have been learned on a later catastrophe.

At those pressures, what happens to the human body? Apologies for being graphic. Does the human body explode,does it get squashed flat, or is it something else?

Gets crushed by the pressure or at least your organs would be, certainly wouldn't "explode" as that would suggest higher pressure inside the body.

Interesting that you say about lessons being learnt. Its a real issue in safety critical industries that some of the lessons are forgotten as experienced people leave. The drive for productivity in the private sector is not allowing time for those lessons to be learnt and understood by younger engineers and managers.
Dont know if @west didsblue has had a similar experiences, but I fear we are bound to repeat them.

It's not lessons learnt , it's not a learning thing if different decisions had been made on the Titanic then history would have gone in a different direction . Titanic would not be where it is today, nobody would be diving on it, and it possibly could have been the most talked about ship for another reason, or totally forgotten by history.

If the titanic hadn’t sank, that means the film wouldn’t have been made, which means I wouldn’t have had a very pleasant night with some lass from work who was going through a separation.

Mad how shit works.

Indeed, I may nave never fingered a bird for the first time as a young whippersnapper, under a blanket watching Titanic on DVD while she was babysitting someone.

I thought that about my own case I just mentioned but I think the romantic element of the film definitely played a part in me getting index deep.

So thats that then. Mercifully sounds like it was instantaneous and they wouldn't have known anything about it.
