April 15,1912 when the great "unsinkable" Titanic hit an iceberg. The movie TITANIC on 1997 made the whole world (almost) cry but like Rose said '' the self-experience was different '' but can you imagine how wierd it is to see/watch the movie if you have experienced it in real. Did you ever experienced any tragedy (car accident, fire,robbery etc) wherein you are a one of the survivor. How does it feels seeing one -witnessing in real life or watching a movie related to your own experience. Or, do you avoid watching any. Good day everyone- start your week with love and smile jaiho®- watching TITANIC 4-16-2012 2:20pm Monday PT

Hi jai, I don't have any tragic experienced before, but the movie itself it has. Remembering those days 14 years ago I caught my ex with his girl went to see this movie. How tragic the feeling I have, but im very fine now. I doesn't deserve him anyway.

Hi Jaiho Titanic incident completed 100 years. And now lots of programs on that subject are going. Just day before yesterday I saw a program related to it and it was so interesting. They were showing the unrevealed truths for that incident. About experiencing such incident, yes I have faced a car accident in which my half of the car got lots of damage. We were total 3 members in the car and fortunately all got minor injuries only.

hello akp, Oh no, I hope you were able to overcome the fear. I know we cannot avoid some accidents- it's beyond our control. All we can do is pray for our safety each time we goes out or even inside home. Have a great week

Actually I wasn't feared at that time too. In fact it was little funny one for me. I was sitting on the back seat and I wasn't seeing road at all as I was playing games on my mobile. Even after accident I didn't understand what happened actually...

Hi jaiho: Wow. I've always found the story on Titanic really touching not only because of the romantic story line but also for the real tragic story. But it must be really shocking for someone who has lived a tragic accident to watch a disaster movie. All the survivals from the Titanic has already gone but people who has had a ship accident must feel the tragic story in a deeper way. ALVARO

hello Alvaro, I had a real shocking experience yesterday and yes, it's really different when you're experiencing it in real than watching it from the movie alone. Titanic the movie is really a good one- one of the best that made the world cry in real life and by watching the movie. Have a great week my friend

Well, it is 100 years since the Titanic sank. But the movie was not real good. They fabricated that love story. None of that was true. I know that because my cousin was the casting director for that movie and she told me that the entires story was made up. What I did not like about the move was that they did not concentrate on the ship at all, or any real facts actually. They made it into this sad stupid love story. I wish they would remake it with truth and facts of what took place.

hello inertia, Well, the Poseidon movie did not hit the market. That maybe the reason why Cameron decided to modify the movie from it's original version. I agree that maybe they should make a movie that will give the viewers some facts of what really happened on that fateful night. thanks and have a good day

I remember the Poseidon Adventure. They were good movies. but I would really love to see a real movie about the Titanic. I don't know why hollywood felt the need to add that false love story to it. Were they thinking that people would not want to see the movie? I don't know. I think it would have done much better without the fake story line. I am sure they have many facts and stories from that ship.

i have been interested in the Titanic for a very long time. my grandfather was on the Atlantic with another British shipping firm the night it sank. all weekend long there were a lot of interesting shows on the disaster as well. i cannot imagine being involved in a disaster like that though.

hello cher, I agree, it's hard to imagine being the real scene. I am a big fan of riding boats than plane and after all of those sea disasters, still I like riding boats. I am sure your grandfather had a lot of stories during his time :) Thanks and have a great week

Dear sister, Yes, the real experience is different. Just imagine, the ship hit an ice berg in the middle of the sea, how scary it is. I watched the movie, felt scared. I just can’t imagine witnessing the same dear. Once I met an accident when we were on picnic from college, but comparing to this it was a minor one.

dear sis Glad to see you once again :) Watching the movie alone we can feel the fear and desperation, how much more in real situation. I can't imagine how does it feels in real life. I also had minor accidents and I am thankful I am still alive and kicking right now (^_^) Have a great week my dear

I am starting my week with a smile jai.. too bad the migraine wants to join as well well, i was never in an accident or similar to those you have mentioned that made me a survivor.. let's just say mine was just different, i am a survivor of life's tests But i do admire those who were able to go through all those accidents, fire etc.. they are strong and it must have been very scary.

dear jazel, I know this hot summer weather will give you hard time with your migraine. Keep using dark shades when going outside esp with this season. Avoid thinking too much- that triggers migraine and like I wrote, no coffee and chocolates after late noon. Take care and keep safe

I'm going to be a bit pedantic about this, Titanic hit the iceberg on the 14th, it sank on the 15th. I've survived a couple of hurricanes and one incident of a sinking boat (in warm Florida waters). I don't mind learning about disasters, it's good to have the knowledge just in case I'm ever in a similar situation myself.

hello Kojigirl, Oh yes, sorry for not being specific- but I have written an article about this. Titanic hit the ice berg on the 14th at around 11:40pm and sank on 15th at 2:20am. Yah,it is always good to know and learn precaution regarding disasters and what to do when facing such situation. Thanks and have a good day

The film titanic is the one of the film which narrates the happenings which happned in our past. This film helps us to study how a love relation should be and it also teaches us that never challange the god. The god teaches every one he is great. Even the simple reason ie, the floting ice can lead to a huge destrution.

I and my husband together with my 1 year old son rode on motorbike going to the church. And all of the sudden a taxi in front of us in adjacent position from the right lane abruptly took its U-turn without taking its light first, and that took my husband twist the head of the motorbike to avoid getting bump but I and my son were thrown away. Good thing I had protected my son with my arms. It was traumatic but I was able to get through it. Now I can watch the same scene on movies or shows and deeply felt how to be in there.

Hi my lady! :) I remember the first time I watch Titanic, I was about 4 or 5 years old! It was also the first time I went to a theater to watch a movie with my parents. It feels horrible seeing those actors being in pain or whatever we call it. It looks like as if its real. I've been into few accidents. But, thank God all of them were not serious! :) Have a great week ahead, my lady! Love lots, edsss
