:52:05
When you see the stern
section where it tore in half,
:52:09
and there are
the two reciprocating engines
:52:11
standing four stories high,
:52:13
they really do look like
these twin sphinxes
:52:17
that are guarding
the forbidden tomb.
:52:42
When the historians
look at "Titanic,"
:52:44
they think of the lives
that were lost.
:52:48
When I look at the ship
as a scientist,
:52:50
I look at the life
that still is on "Titanic. "
:52:54
"Titanic" is very much alive.
:52:59
Rusticles are bacteria...
microscopic organisms, bugs...
:53:04
that are actually eating
the steel
:53:07
and the insides of the ship.
:53:09
I look at a rail and think,
"Oh, look at the bacteria.
:53:14
They're breaking 'Titanic' down
and taking her back to nature. "
:53:18
But then you immediately
go back and think,
:53:20
"Who touched this railing last?"
:53:26
Helen Candee is one
of my favorite passengers.
:53:29
She had written one of the
century's first best sellers.
:53:32
Basically, the theme being
:53:34
how a woman can get along
in life successfully
:53:37
without a man.
:53:38
And that's how she was traveling
first-class on the "Titanic. "
:53:42
And on the very last sunrise
:53:44
that the "Titanic"
would ever see,
:53:46
she snuck out
to the very point of the bow
:53:50
just to greet the sunrise alone.
:53:52
And she wrote about it
:53:54
and how she felt the power
and the beauty of this ship
:53:57
and that it was stronger
than nature itself,
