An interesting aside is that there was a suggestion that it was
Titanic's sister-ship that was sunk not Titanic itself.  Many people
were convinced that the Titanic was not seaworthy for it's maiden voyage
and at the last moment the sister-ship was substituted for the real
thing.  Unfortunately I can't recall the name of the ship I think it may
have been the Olympic - variation on a theme I assume.  

There were holes poked (pardon the pun) into Titanic the movie as well.
