If Trump built the Titanic:
“Unsinkable. Tremendous ship. The best ship. If it sinks, it’s the iceberg’s fault—rigged ocean.”

Helmisormus kirjekuoressa

Nurmekseen saapuu Yhdysvalloista odottamaton vieras. Somevaikuttaja ja New Yorkin seurapiireissä liihottava Caroline marssii korkkareissaan Pielisen rannalla olevaan keltaiseen puutaloon ja ensi töikseen tyrmää talon isännän krav maga -taidoillaan maahan. Kunhan alun väärinkäsityksistä päästään yli, käy ilmi, että Caroline on tavallaan sukua talon isäntäväelle, Ikosille, tai ainakin liittyy heidän sukuhistoriaansa.

Carolinella on mukanaan vanha kirje ja helmisormus. […]

I am still fascinated by the ship #titanic and everything arround it. What I have to do is rewatch some of the older movies. And of course I LOVE James Camerons „Titanic“ very much! :-) ...

Violet Jessop hatte Glück im Unglück. Sie überlebte als Stewardess mehrere Schiffsunglücke. RMS Olympic (1911), HMHS Britannic (1916) und RMS #Titanic (1912). Sie starb mit 83 Jahren an Herzinsuffizienz.

Nei giorni scorsi ho visto il #docufilm sul #Titan, il batiscafo sperimentale con scafo in fibra di carbonio che il 18 giugno 2023 implose a oltre 3.000 m. di profondità causando la morte dell'imprenditore e capo progetto Stockton Rush. di un esperto di visite al relitto del #Titanic e di 4 altre persone che avevano pagato 250.000 $ a testa per vivere un'esperienza esclusiva.
Basato sulle udienze della commissione d'inchiesta, il docufilm è per molti versi una visione istruttiva che consiglio.

My #haul from a used #bookstore in #Dublin.

The #Poland guidebook was fairly new, from 2010 and had some nice color pictures and maps. The #Wieliczka guide was "free" so I had to take it. Both should come in handy for future #travel

The scenic #walks book joins my West #Cork walks book on the book shelf.

The #Titanic book represents an eye witness account from Colonel Gracie, a famous survivor of the disaster

The adventure #cycling in #Britain was a curiosity, aligned with my interests.

The Titanic Belfast museum is located where the RMS Titanic was built. It covers the construction, launch, sinking and the lessons learned from the distaster. Have you been here? #Titanic #Museum #NorthernIreland https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Northern-Ireland/Day16/#5i161

Also it was fun that one of the experts said “it’s a mathematical certainty” that the thing was going to fail at some point. For anyone who hasn’t seen it or who forgot, there’s a bit in the movie where Astor tells the engineer (or whatever his job is) that #Titanic can’t sink, and part of the engineer’s response is that “it is a mathematical certainty” that it will sink.

Rush forgot the first rule of being a techbro shithead parasite - never subject yourself to your own invention.

Het stond in de sterren geschreven dat een expeditie met de Titan-onderzeeër van OceanGate op een dag fataal zou aflopen. Dat blijkt uit getuigenissen van ex-medewerkers van het bedrijf in een nieuwe Netflix-documentaire over het ongeval met de onderzeeër in 2023. Tijdens een duik naar het wrak van de Titanic implodeerde die, alle 5 inzittenden kwamen om.

Two documentaries revisit the OceanGate sub tragedy
Nearly two years after OceanGate’s Titan submersible imploded during a dive to the Titanic, killing all five people aboard, two documentaries are bringing fresh perspectives to the disaster. But they also make clear that it’s too early to close the book on the tragedy and its

Ausnahmelos jeder Milliardär sollte die Gelegenheit erhalten, die Klimakatastrophe abzumildern, sich von seinem Vermögen zu trennen oder eine Tauchfahrt zur #Titanic zu unternehmen.
