Titanic Predictions

Morgan Robertson, in 1898, wrote "Futility". It described the maiden
voyage of a transatlantic luxury liner named the Titan. Although it was
touted as being unsinkable, it strikes an iceberg and sinks with much
loss of life. In 1912 the Titanic, a transatlantic luxury liner widely
touted as unsinkable strikes an iceberg and sinks with great loss of
life on her maiden voyage. In the Book, the Month of the Wreck was
April, same as in the real event. There were 3,000 passengers on the
book; in reality, 2,207. In the Book, there were 24 Lifeboats; in
reality, 20.


Months after the Titanic sank, a tramp steamer was traveling
through the foggy Atlantic with only a young boy on watch. It came into
his head that it had been thereabouts that the Titanic had sunk, and he
was suddenly terrified by the thought of the name of his ship - the
Titanian. Panic-stricken, he sounded the warning. The ship stopped,
just in time: a huge iceberg loomed out of the fog directly in their
path. The Titanian was saved.
