Why do you think that is so? The stern lookes like it blew up compared to the bow.


The bow was filled with water and had no air in it--no explosive decompression.

The stern was pulled under with all of its air still in it. When the water pressure got too great, the structure of the stern gave way and imploded.

I wouldn’t agree with that because, for a ship to lose bouncy its weight has to be equaled by the water, so the stern must have been filled with water, at least half. I believe the stern is in such bad condition because, as the ship separated, the stern was torn, and partly due to the compression that you said.

For the stern to be in that condition completely due to the pressure, I am sure the damage would be different, it looks more like the stern has been torn rather than crushed, but in my view it's both factors.

did you read this thread? that's what i said. (no rhyme intended)...so, for clarification, the bow is recognizable and in relatively decent shape(considering it's on the bottom of the ocean and the stern is (to quote myself) "a bloody mangeled mess"...oi vey

I don't think the ryhme was intended, just a one-off thing.

I phrased my question incorrectly. What I meant to ask: "Why is the stern more damaged than the bow?" Reefblue has explained very well and I understand now.

Sorry for the confussion guys and girls.
