Good on you! It'd be a dream come true for me too.

I've seen the footage you posted & it blew me away.

[Bobsicleuk]

Hi, I'm glad you liked the footage, it certainly is a trip that will stick with me forever. Once in a lifetime...

[CDM1971]

Rob, could you please give your views on the salvage of artifacts from the wreck. I see they ran out of time so would be good to hear what you wantesd to say.

My own personal view and worry is that the wreck will loose it's mystique with alot of the artifacts gone from the wreck and just left a pile of twisted metal.

[Bobsicleuk]

Hi, My personal view is that certain objects like dinner plates, cups, bottles, etc (of which there are thousands) are fine to bring up as once they are gone, there gone. However personal effects such as wallets, suitcases, shoes, etc should be left as they are essentially gravemarkers. It's a bit of a hot potato subject as everyone has different opinions. Some people think the whole ship should be brought up! (even though it's impossible) Hope this answers your question.

you are so lucky!

i would have cried nonstop.

[Bobsicleuk]

Yes I am very lucky, It was very emotional. If you go onto my channel there is some footage of the wreck i've shot if you want to see it.

[sianxbaby]

Wow you are really lucky to have gone down there, if i was down there i would have not been able to stop crying thinking of all those souls that had been taken that night it sunk, so lucky once in a lifetime shot really well done :D !!

[MegaTitanicboy]

the Titanic is rusting away :'( WHY!

[charlieiscool1000]

Wow that is truly very moving and yet so Interested how long did it take you to go down and how long did it take to cross over the whole ship wreck?

[ledzeppelin708]

Rob i would just like to congratulate you on this absolutely unforgettabe prize, what was it really like to go down there? and was it as good in reality as it would have been in your thoughts before you went down?

[lakelandchief]

Wow! So did you meet Dr. Robert B or James Cameron or anyone like that? Do you know how I can get a ride down?!!?!? ID LOVE TO!

[SaintCammy4444]

How Lucky Are You?

I Can't Think Of A Single Bit Of History You Can See With Your Eyes Apart From This One And You Have Seen It

Must Have Been Wonderfully Beautiful

The ship in itself is not a grave it is a ship one of the most famous of ships but a ship none the less and should be rasied for that one reason all alone those who think they can legislate the ones who can raise it should get out of the way and let us raise what we can pf the ship so we can have a real lok at it up here there are ways to rasie it even now but wait to much longer and it will be far to late raose it now!

[VikingWarriorof69]

its a bit hard to imagine the scale of the Ship's size due to the fact that the atlantic Ocean is huge!! but that was the best close-up footage i think i've seen of it.

[velmanharry]

[DaisyFknMadeline]
