Hi! Person with more than 1 braincell here! If you raise the Titanic it will disintegrate. The Saltwater corrosion, pressure and the fact that the shattered remains of her skeleton have been through unimaginable stress means that any jarring movement will tear her apart.
BREAKING: Today, direct Titanic descendants open an historic recovery campaign for future generations, and for the world. Let's save what we can, while we can.

Titanic has this very unfortunate problem called "being famous for an objectively decent, but not great, movie", causing people to overlook the small fact that 1,500 innocent people froze to death when she went down and focus on the fact that she was the biggest ship ever built.
@felix_croc
I meant "Skeleton" as in the structural frame of the ship itself. Any ship which split in half and then torpedoed into the seabed is naturally gonna have a frame that's just ever so slightly so completely buggered that any stress might cause it to fall apart.

I've seen the kind of shit the majority of essential workers put up with
it is skilled
skilled as they're forced to stand, not allowed to be angry and can be reprimanded for as little as using the toilet in some places, all while putting up with someone screaming at them.
@EricaMac888
This Pop Culture bullshit, which can be blamed chiefly on Roy Ward Baker and James Cameron, means people want to raise it because they somehow think the shattered remains of a ship which sank in a horrible, preventable disaster 112 years ago is cool.
@LowlyTarnisheed
I mean I know enough about saltwater corrosion to know that its structural integrity is BEYOND "compromised" and also the simple fact that we have nowhere to actually put the damn thing if it somehow survives being raised.
AND WITH THAT COMMISSIONS ARE NOW O B S O L E T E
SORRY LADS I DONT MAKE THE RULES
YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE HAS FINALLY HAPPENED

Titanic is... famous. She was the biggest ship in the world, didn't carry enough lifeboats (she needed at least 40 but the law specified a minimum of 16. She actually had 20) and sank on her maiden voyage. It's a tragedy that writes itself.

I've heard that this was actually considered for the games, but was dropped because B2/W2 already had performance issues on the DS
@RefreshFresh
Yeah, one incident which scared the shit out of people was when Olympic was caught in one whilst sailing near Titanic's wreck in 1929. Olympic is Titanic's sister ship.

As someone who likes anime to an extent, yeah it's entirely a choice to like or watch anime. It's NOT a choice, however, to be LGBTQIA+. I chose to watch Space Battleship Yamato, I did not choose to like men.
They didn't just let them die. They jacked up the price to the point where people couldn't afford it in the first place.
They didn't let people die, they killed them

That ain’t what the lore says, as it’s explicitly stated in 2 occasions that they DO expel waste
Darumaka droppings are noted as having been placed in clothes for warmth, and Guzzlord’s LACK of biological waste is noted as strange.

you can't build an empire on a foundation of .PNG files that are so easy to steal that a bot can make a shirt of them in seconds. Your ONLY option with NFT's is to take the money and hop on the Eurostar to the hell known as France where you belong.

Britannic was finished, albeit as a hospital ship. She served valiantly during the Great War until she unfortunately sank due to a mine, though over the course of her career she saved countless lives.

It’s definitely an episode of Journeys, as they have a running gag of Professor Oak failing to observe basic safety when handling an animal and suffering the consequences as a possessed electric fart laughs at him

The X Chromosome alone is not the determining factor, it's the presence or absence of 2 of them in a chromosome pair which determines biological sex. Klinefelter syndrome, being that the additional X chromosome can cause traits of both males and females, falls under intersex

@AmericanGov_
Are you really telling me that the NHS page on Klinefelter syndrome, which is dumbed down to the point where someone without a degree can understand the basics, is the literal, factual description of Klinefelter syndrome and not the one universally agreed upon by science?
@krystalwolfy
You see this is all part of Hollywood's genius anti-piracy strategy by making movies so absolutely awful that nobody would watch them even if they WERE free
I'm not a Christian and I'd actually normally approve of such blasphemic art, or at least turn a blind eye to it... but no. No. Andrew Tate will never be Jesus. This is just straight up blasphemy to religion as a whole

@Grimndgrinning
No, there isn't. We're not talking about something small like the Hunley, we're talking about the 20,000 tonne bow section of a ship, a section which has been sitting at the bottom of the Atlantic for 112 years. It's like trying to mould paper mache with a sledgehammer.
