Jamz3k

yep, the Titanic was real but was it the Titanic that sank or was it actually the Olympic?

I wonder if the upper class people really didn't care about the 3rd class passengers dying like the film makes out.

I still don't believe it was Titanic that went down to be honest! What happened was a huge tragedy but I don't believe the story any more than I believe the bible.

there is still some debate whether the doors from the lower decks were locked or not - preventing some steerage passengers access to the Lifeboats which were all on the upper class deck (which in normal conditions, steerage passengers certainly did not have access too)


but the figures really speak for themselves

ironic that the lower class passengers where heading for a country that put much less store in your birthright, preferring to reward and recognise what you did rather than who you were

All this fuss over a film?
