Bismarck Palm Crown Fell Off!?

Question

My 16 year old Bismarck palm 40ft tall just lost its top end, about 5 fronds several of which were yet to open so now it has a flat top? Will it survive? Thanks

This will, likely, end with a dead palm. The good news is that with some fungicide treatment and time, it will likely shoot up some new replacement pups.
