On April 10, 1912, the Titanic departed England, ultimately bound for America. It famously struck an iceberg along the way, and as the mighty ship went down, it took 1,500 people with it, most of them good-hearted, innocent people. But what of the jerks, losers, weirdos, and malcontents? They were also People of the Titanic.

In this comical, fanciful- and completely hypothetical - depiction of life on the Titanic, Shawn Carlow (Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon) brings to the surface 30 stories of doomed souls who sailed upon that ship of dreams. Revel in the never-before-told biographies of Titanic curios, such as:

• The heroic mime who kept performing as the boat sank

• The importer forced to choose between his passion for passion fruits and his dispassionate wife

• The Danish spiritualist whose "readings" confirmed that his rich customers' opulent lifestyles would continue well into the afterlife

And so very many more.

"Suck it, James Cameron. You've been bested by Shawn Carlow's hilarious take on the Titanic."
