roger – i’ve read and loved most of cussler’s books and had no idea that “raise the titanic” was movie-fied. now i absolutely must watch it even if it is as horrible as you say. also, yes, “sahara” had so much more potential.

The mummy on the titanic is a myth. There is no proof that a mummy was ever on board and King Tut’s mummy is on display right now in New York

@grace
I believe that it was actually King Tut himself! I believe thats what I read in a book and/or saw on TV.

Witty Nickname stole that joke, but it’s still worthy of a chuckle.

Wow, @Witty Nickname… had me all the way to the end, even though I’m kind of a Titanic buff and didn’t recall ever reading about a Mexican port-of-call. Well played! I’ll second Kelley O’s call for a prize.

In other news, anybody ever seen the eighties movie “Raise the Titanic” based on the Clive Cussler book of the same title. One of the worst adaptations ever, and I suspect a key reason he didn’t option any more of his books for movie titles. Until… “Sahara.” Poor guy. I like his books, and when reading them you think “Wow, this would be a great movie!” Then you go see the movie…

Witty Nickname – flippin’ hilarious. You had me all the way to the punch line. Are you that good or am I just that big of a loser?

Mental Floss – give Witty a prize!
