[QUOTE="Scott Mills, post: 429348, member: 144412"] This fact lends some credence to the grounding theory; however, what it really tells us that [I]Titanic [/I]made very little contact with the ice--truly a glancing blow at best; maybe a better way to put this is the contact between [I]Titanic [/I]and the ice was not enough contact cause a sudden change in [I]Titanic's [/I]momentum. If it were, people would have noticed. They would have been thrown from their beds and bunks, and there would have been dozens (more really) cases of broken bones and other collision related injuries. Unfortunately, the contact was still enough to fatally, or nearly fatally, damage [I]Titanic's [/I]hull. [/QUOTE]
