: I do not know what damage would have been done to a plastic model.
I do. My 1st 1/350 titanic model took the plunge off the fireplace mantle to the bricks 5' below. Both masts were broken, the forecastle and poop deck popped out, railings and small parts littlered the floor, and something made a 2" long puncture in the bottom of the hull! I still haven't figured that one out.
It wasn't pretty.
