Does the LEGO TITANIC FLOAT!?
Ойын-сауық
Today we have WAY TO MUCH FUN while testing if the LEGO TITANIC FLOATS!? This massive 9090 piece set measures 135cm long!... It does not fit in our bathtub! So we had to upgrade the body of water with the help of a swimming pool! At first, the LEGO TITANIC floats quite well but then came the icy waters and ice burg... That was the true test. Find out if the LEGO TITANIC floats in this new epic!

To prevent the boat from tipping over, it is essential to weigh it down. This is the case with Playmobil boats where a metal bar is fixed to the bottom of the hull.

even then I doubt it would float for long, hull wasn't designed to keep out water and its too heavy to keep the ship at a realistic water level. i'm sure it can be modified but it would take non-lego things to do.

The center of gravitiy is too high and/or the width ist too small: The model will capsize as all models with this weakness are doing. You need to lower the enter by gravitiy by using a keel as done for sailing yachts. With this additional weight the model will be to heavy and sinks. My answer: No, the model doesn't float.

Its possible, but I think the colors of the ship will have to be changed a lot due to what it looks like now underwater. I'm sure someone can essentially build it based on the current instructions but adding (or at least subtracting) parts of the build to make it look like the shipwreck. I'm more curious to see if someone plans on making the RMS Britannic using the Hospital colors it had.

You need those lego boat weights. I have like 3 or 4 of them. They used to come with boat models in the 80s. I bet if you added 4 of those weights to the bottom..it would float.
@pieterboelen2862
2 жыл бұрын
Exactly my thinking. Just some really heavy weight down below as ballast and she should be fine. Real ship would've had fuel compartments down below; and use much lighter materials on the superstructure. That's how they prevent capsizing. Still, clearly she DOES float. As basically all LEGO must. Has to be difficult to make something that actually stays steadily *below* the water.

Locomotives used to have 2x6x2 blocks with steel weights inside them, as well, for traction.
I wonder what might happen if you were to remove some of the supporting structures in Boat, A, and B Deck? Obviously the model is top heavy, but the keel of the vessel SHOULD be wide enough to keep her stable as long as the weight matches, she is actually wider to her length and height to her historical namesake. Something to consider, for sure! I'd test it myself, but I don't have a pool :P
I like the idea of letting Mrs. Bricksie get a chance to rebuild it.
This is brilliant! Haha. But after you hit the iceberg, you had to have known it was going to sink/fall out lol. History gave us that prediction lol.

A good idea for another icons set I would love to see other ships like the Lusitania or the Aquitania but they wouldn’t sell as they are less iconic than the Titanic
My father always said that the Titanic might have been kept afloat for longer, if some weighted tarpaulin sheets could have been draped over the side where the damage was. They might have stemmed the leaking seams sufficiently to allow the pumps to keep the boat afloat until help arrived. Similarly, some cling film around the Lego Hull would have helped!!!
@janetpendlebury6808

I dont think any amount of tarpaulins would have done any good. When the ship hit the iceberg it created a 300-foot-long line of damage on the starboard section of the hull, including punctures and gashes, that opened up too many compartments to the sea, the weight of the water dragged the bow down so low that the ship eventually sank. If it had more lifeboats many more people could have been saved.

Titanic ironically fell to its side like britannic!
The trick to this is proper balance and weighting. that and of course a sealed hull. Every Titanic model I've tried this with it always capsizes.

Hi bricksie I starting a Lego Collection love your video
I have been looking for this!
Back in the 80's There was a Lego Bulk Carrier boat that I had, and it came with 2 weights that made a Keel that attached to the bottom of the boat which allowed the boat to stay upright. The Cargo Freighter Boat 4015.
Can you do a video ranking the lego trains you have? I just bought the passenger train, my first one! I like the looks of the cargo one better, but I figured I’d start with the cheaper one to see how I like it
Very funy experiment. I thought this heavy chunk would sink at once. But no, it didn't. I can't wait to get my fingers on to that fantastic Lego Titanic. After I have built it, it will of course never see a drop of water. I just discovered your channel and subsribed to it. Though you were speaking so fast, I got almost every word which isn't to be taken for granted, because I am German. So thank for not mumbling.

I think you should do more "Will it float" videos with Lego ships as they come out. If you have them there are some Creator ships that could be tested too. We know the boats made from the pre-cast hulls will float (like the big exploration ship you started with) but it is still interesting to see if the builds will stay the right way in the water. And then you have tons of other boats in various series that could be tested.

Without a heavy keel as a counter weight it's unlikley to work. But if you added one or more of those weights from the old Lego ships and some inflated ballons into the engineering spaces (by removing the engines etc) that might help overcome the top-heavyness.

Add ballast to the hull, and make it water tight. The space between the bricks allow water to seep in. The red part needs a water proof coating, then it might work.

If lego actually followed the engineering of a boat and the full design with the full bottom and keel it would actually float and not topple over Maybe an easier way instead of building one would be some sort weight attached to the bottom...
You can find a way to make it float upright. You can extend a long sturdy single narrow fin from the center and at the end of that attach a metal weight. You will need deeper waters though.
