Sinking LEGO Titanic [7 foot model]

Seven foot model of the RMS Titanic made out of LEGOs, sinking in my swimming pool. This model was designed to be huge, while being simpleenough to be built fast and cheaply, so there are quite a few details that were left out, mainly on the boat deck, nonetheless I think it still looks great.

THIS MODEL DOES NOT BREAK IN HALF
I was not trying to replicate how the ship sank, as that would be surely impossible to do with LEGO, but instead I am merely sinking my model I built.

This model is 7'5" long, and is constructed with roughly 8,500 LEGO bricks. The model weighs 33 pounds. To get this model to sink, it is filled with coins, to pull it under.

Interested in building something like this? Here is a reproduction of this model built in LEGO Digital Designer. You would need this free software installed to view it, this is the closest thing I have to offer as far as BUILDING INSTRUCTIONS. The model can serve as a reference to copy should you choose to do so. Be warned to build this would require many hundreds of dollars worth of LEGO!

I watched only 1 video about Titanic, and now it's the only thing youtube recommends me

I remember watching this video for my first time around 4 or 5 years ago, and the nostalgia hits hard.

It's so impressive to see that the physics don't change disregarding the size of the ship, that alone shows how awesome your build is :)

It’s so cool how the stern actually lifts up in the air while the bow sinks just like the event.

Ya need that disclaimer at the beginning of the video, or else everyone will flip out :P Great work- love the model!

It sunk similar to how the actual titanic sunk, well except for it splitting in half.

153 people expected it to be a perfect recreation of the real thing

this brings me back to sinking my Lego boat in the tub when I was little.

4:12 Great idea to use the side of the pool to simulate the iceberg!
4:24 1st person view of a Lego Titanic passenger!

It does give the impression of what it would look like if the Titanic did sink fully intact like people long thought before the discovery of the wreck as well as her sister Britannic.
