Message: [QUOTE="Michael H. Standart, post: 87620, member: 79064"] >>dont you think if she did roll over over they would of been able to rise her<< Why would any of us think that? It's quite common for ships to roll over as they sink but if they go down in deep enough water, they also tend to right themselves as they go down. The question of whether or not a ship can be raised depends on, among other factors: a) whether or not the wreck lies in water that's shallow enough, (Titanic does not) b) How large the wreck is. (The Titanic is too big) c) how intact it is (Titanic's wreck is scattered over several square miles of the bottom) and. d) whether or not there's a good reason to remove the wreck. (With Titanic, there really isn't.) [/QUOTE]
