The titanic is such an interesting thing - the fact it became a semi-romance movie. It will always be remembered. I've heard there is bacteria eating the titanic now and it is likely to be lost. When I went to look up that information I see that may have even been known in 2010 - new to me information.

History being destroyed by bacteria is crazy in itself.

Right? I mean most of our historic things have crumbled and etc, but now things are being eaten away too! I love history and wish we could save historical things somehow!

Totally agree with that statement, any history should be saved.

The story is amazing, the movie of course was overly-dramatized and fictional, but the actual story behind Titanic was something special. All three of those ships had interesting stories, even if the third one never saw the light of day, lol. If you ever get the chance, watch the series Titanic: Blood and Steel, you get to see the ship being built and all that went on during those times. Quite interesting!

I'm sure @Noble and @PGen98 remember that.

Oh I'm so getting banned.

[Gizmo]

Wouldn't yours @Camaroni's and @Noble's ages altogether be like 111?

One of many things growing up is this story...I love everything about it.

We had to choose one thing to research at high school and my brain immediately thought of the Titanic. I love all the documentaries about it as each one is different. I love the.survivor stories.

This is awkward...today on Gabfest there was a thread about a song that will forever be associated with a scene or a movie, etc...

And I posted My Heart Will Go On. I had no idea today was the deathversary:

The story is very interesting, so many speculations as to what really happened that day, we will never know.
@Maul I was on the dock the day it set sail.
