Yeah, she's quite brilliant!! :D
Can you imagine how awful it would be to die inside the ship, trapped by walls? urgh.. that would be the worst thing ever. I had a nightmare about it last night! |

Wow. Just reading that I am overwhelmed with the realism of it! I'm glad t hits me hard though, because usually when I hear the news and theyr'e talking about deaths and bombings, I am just so accustomed to it.
Our world is regretfully numb. |

One of the other reasons so few had been found has to do with water temperature - the colder air forces objects on the surface down. The dispersion rate would have been accelerated by the ship going down too, although from what I've read, there was no suction to speak of.

Usually, when a ship goes down, there is a fair amount of suction as the hull still has air in it, so parts of the ship implode (gets smaller) under water. The main reason the major part of [i:f31f894f1a]Titanic[/i:f31f894f1a] didn't implode was that she was already filled with water, so there was little suction and not an awful lot of people got dragged in. Luckily for Lightoller, among others.
