All, this is a follow-up on the previous Titanic thread.

Let's imagine the nose-first collission. The force breaks the ship into pieces. The rivets shooting out, plates falling out, bottom ruptured, boilers exploding, passengers and crew tossed her and there (going from 22k to 0 is a bit hectic).

Carpatia not kn owng what happened. No SOS, nothing.

She just does not show up in New York. The ice berg is gone as well. How to find one anyway?

No survivors. Nobody could get into the life boats. Flotsam? maybe not even that. And where to look as she just doesn't show up.

1912: The liner which evaporated? The flying Hollander?

Another sea mystery? Bermuda triangle?

Would it have captured peoples minds and imaginations for a century?

What would be the consequences?
