Titanic

I didn't know where to put this one under so I thought under life would work. 1912 most people know the Titanic sank. And lots of people died. But did you know they are building another Titanic? It will be ready by 2011. Do you think another Titanic ship should be built again? Its going to look the same as it did before. And people can come see it when its done. It will bring a lot of memories back that is for sure. And would you go on the Titanic ship after knowing everything that happened before?

But if they are making it exactly like it did before, wouldn't it be short of life boats? :S

I would hope not. But who knows. I know they are making a twin of her again.

The Titanic was a beautiful ship. But I pray history doesn't repeat its self.

Atleast now we know how it goes, so we need to sneak unto those lifeboats if we're in the lesser-class decks!

Wow, I'm so tempted to tweet this. In fact, I have. Thanks for the inspiration there.. I sure won't board this one, LOL. I just feel that it's a cool invention in a way, but there is just that tiny fear that history will repeat itself. But touches on wood, of course I would wish for no disaster ever. I'd be curious to check out the outlook come 2011. Thanks for sharing this news with all of us. Have a nice day, strawberrybaby...

You are very welcome. I hope the bad things never repeat its self when it comes to that Titanic ship again. I loved the beauty of that ship. But my heart went out to the people that passed away to.

Can you provide the links to this please, to see if it's a joke or not? Other than that, ARE YOU FRIGGIN' KIDDING ME??!! I'm going to have to rant on this one. Didn't people learn from history of what happened to the FIRST Titanic? WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY SMOKING??!! I've heard about "forgiving and forgetting", but there's also another side of the coin: "Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it." The first one got a big scar on its side from striking an iceberg even when the captain and the crew spotted it and tried to avoid it! Plus they boasted that the ship is unsinkable! UN-FRIGGIN'-SINKABLE! If it was that unsinkable then why did it easily get hit by an iceberg? Isn't that a high-and-mighty, boastful type of thinking that leads to such types of mistakes that led the ship to its tragic ending almost a full century ago? It doesn't add up! It doesn't make sense! You know what? I'm against this. I'm COMPLETELY against their creation of a Second Titanic, much less even getting on it because of its tragic past! NO SHIP IS UNSINKABLE! NONE AT ALL! If the original passengers and the crew of the First Titanic came back as ghosts or spirits they'd tell you the same thing! Why rebuild the same artifact if you don't learn from it's original history and fix the mistakes and errors? This is complete absent-minded nuttiness!

No I don't think money should be wasted on making another Titanic ship. I would not go on it due to what happened in 1912 and history has a tendency to repeat itself. No thank you!

Some people do think history can repeat its self. But some don't. I am sure everyone will see when its made. We have 2 years to wait to see what happens.

the technology this time is far more advance than the time when the first titanic sank so i believe that it would be safer now to go on board a giant ship once more.. i even find it exciting and i want to be on that ship on its first sail. i may find my jack there.=)

I think the technology is better now then what it ever use to be to. I think it would be nice to see it to. Just as long as they have enough boats on it for the passengers aboard. I think it would be nice to see the beauty of the ship like it was before.

i dont think its a good idea first,what will people think about it when they step on to the ship made same as the one which sank in 1912?won't they wonder about like"will it sink again like that one?" second,i think the old titannic is a memory for the whole world to memorize that carefulness is the essence and man should not be arrogant about what they create.

I am sure people will wonder if the ship will sink again. But they need to make sure the ship is done right and there is enough life boats for all passengers not just half of them like the last time. That is what hurt all the people was because they thought of beauty first and not all the people that was going to be aboard the ship. They need to think wise. They didn't think very wise the first time. That was there down fall that killed the people.

well, to be honest, i dont think they should build another Titanic but since the last survivor recently passed away (she was just a few weeks old when the Titanic sunk) i dont think it would harm anyone...but would anyone go on it due to the name? i dont think i would!

no I didn't know that they are makeing another titanic. In a way I think it would be cool because it hopefully would be design like the last titanic but with mondern technoligy. I know it would be very sad to bring up memories of the last ship is going to be hard, but I think it also a good teaching material about the saftey guide lines that ships must have now for a good voyage. I do hope that will decorate it like the old one to give it more a romatic feel to it, not like the one today were they are I am not how to say it. but you know what I mean, I think. I know if I every have the opportunity to go see and sail on it I would, it can not be any worse then riding on an airplane these day. You never now weather the plane is going to make it or not. That is a subject for another day. LOL

Its going to cost a lot of money to build the Titanic ship again they said. But a whole lot more money. To make it look just like the first Titanic they said it wont be cheap to build it. In all these years you would think they wouldn't think they would still be talking about the Titanic as much. But its still talked about a lot. That day was a very sad day when those people had to freeze from the water and pass away. Very true airplanes crash to,so do cars,trains,buses and ships. The Titanic is always been a dream of mine to see the beauty inside the ship.

I think it would be a cool memory! But a terrible one as well. It could make people very sad and angry for people who had relatives and parents on that boat. Every time I think of a boat I think of the Titanic movie. Although that movie was a giant fiction sap story, it still could be true. But the part with the guy locking him in a room as it sank and the girl coming in and getting him out with an ax, nah that wasn't believable but every other part seems to be quite true!

The very last living person that was on that ship just passed away a couple days ago. she was 97 years old. Her name was Millvina Dean. That part wasn't true when the guy was locked in that room when the ship was sinking. To know the real titanic story you will have to search way back in 1912. The ship broke in half and sank killing 1517 people and 706 people lived. When they were out for beauty of the Titanic they didn't think about safety of the people. They thought the ship would never sink so they never worried about anymore boats.
