Whereas women, of course, are fine.
It is amazing what damages modern men can do with modern tools!!!

Build a giant passenger ship with flawed steel that becomes brittle in cold temperatures, and limited water-tight bulkheads. Then load it with twice as many passengers than you have lifeboats for, and sail through a North Atlantic ice field at full speed.
What could possibly go wrong.
I’m completely innocent!

Wreck of the Titan…a fictional story written some years before has some weird similarities…differences also.
And there was a copy of it onboard.
There was also a long lasting coal bunker fire that attributed to adding to damaging the iceberg side of the vessel, as well as a number of interesting atmospheric anomalies added along to a perfect storm, so to say.
Titanic’s progenitor and sister, Olympic sailed from 1910 to 1936 and had the nick name ‘Old Reliable”, even surviving a collision with the HMS Hawke before Titanic went down.

And one of your ancestors doesn't happen to be at the steering wheel and had problems with the starboard and port commands?
I think it says something about Belfast, that its main tourist attraction is 'The Titanic Experience'

There was this mysterious American woman from Minnesota, who came on the bridge to complain she could not get a lump of ice for her glass of Riesling, and whether the officers could offer her any help for that!

My least favourite song of all time - wish you hadn't reminded me of it!

I was fascinated with the whole disaster from a young age…predating the movie schtick but went to see it for the meticulously detailed recreations of the sets and such.

Music for The Torture Chamber!
Also, I realize they had to have some sort of story to have the audience engage but there were so many true stories that I found worthwhile instead, but that’s just me.
No, no, not that, please Master - anything but 'My heart will go on' - unless you don't want mine to ...
