has changed a bit.

( Gasps Quietly)

Are you ready to go

back to Titanic?p

Lewis:
Okay , here we go. She hits

the berg on the starboard side , right?

She kind of bumps along punching holes

like Morse code-- dit-dit-dit--

along the side ,

below the waterline.

Then the forward compartments

start to flood.e

Now as the water level rises , it

spills over the watertight bulkheads

which unfortunately

don't go any higher than E deck.

So now as the bow goes down ,

the stern rises up

slow at first , then faster

and faster until finally

she's got her whole ass is sticking

up in the air and that's a big ass.

We're talking

20 , 000 , 30 , 000 tons , okay?

And the hull's not designed to deal

with that pressure , so what happens?

She splits ,

right down to the keel

and the stern

falls back level.

Then as the bow sinks , it pulls the

stern vertical and finally detaches.

Now , the stern section just

kind of bobs there like a cork

for a couple of minutes , floods and

finally goes under about 2:20 a.m.

two hours and 40 minutes

after the collision.

The bow section planes away

landing about a half a mile away

going 20 , 30 knots when

it hits the ocean floor.

Pretty cool , huh?

Thank you for that fine

forensic analysis , Mr. Bodine.

Of course ,

the experience of it was

somewhat different.

Will you share it with us?

( Music Playing)

( Crying)d

- I'm taking her to rest.

- No.

- Come on , Nana.

- No!

Tape recorder.h

Tell us , Rose.s

It's been 84 years. It's okay. Just try to remember

anything-- anything at all.

Do you want to hear this

or not , Mr. Lovett?

It's been 84 years...

and I can still smell

the fresh paint.

The china had never been used.

The sheets had never

been slept in.i

Titanic was called

"The Ship of Dreams"

and it was , it really was.

Man:
All third-class passengers

with a forward berthl

this way , please , this queue.e

- Right here. - Big boat , huh? n

- Daddy , it's a ship.

- You're right.

( Car Horn Tooting)

I don't see what

all the fuss is about.

It doesn't look any bigger

than the Mauritania.

You can be blas about some things ,

Rose , but not about Titanic.

It's over 1 00 feet longer than

Mauritania and far more luxurious.

Your daughter is far too difficult

to impress , Ruth.

So this is the ship

they say is unsinkable.

It is unsinkable.

God Him self could not sink this ship.

Sir , you have to check

your baggage through the main terminal.

- It's round that way , sir.

- I put my faith in you , good sir.

- Now , kindly see my man.

- Yes , sir , my pleasure , sir.

- If I can do anything at all.

- Oh , yes , right.

All the trunks

from that car there
