What Titanic Survivors Saw When Titanic Was Sinking



Imagine being on the Titanic as it was sinking—survivors described it as both surreal and terrifying. They saw chaos all around them, with people rushing to lifeboats and the ship tilting at a crazy angle. The night was freezing cold, and the only light came from the stars and the ship’s flares. Some survivors recalled hearing the ship’s band playing music, trying to calm everyone down. As the Titanic broke apart and started sinking into the dark ocean, many saw the huge stern rise up before disappearing underwater. It was a haunting scene, like something from a nightmare.

  1. Wow, a Brightside Titanic video that isn't quite as brimful of nonsense and inaccuracies as usual (Sam from Historic Travels will be disappointed😂 )… Although the image showing the ship sliced in half from stem to stern, what was that???

  2. I want to point out the fact that the boilers stokers ( the guy's that shoveled the coals into the boilers) 138 got off the Titanic before it set sail for U.S.A ? They knew that there was a fire in the coal bunkers and they were scared they would sink with the Titanic ! Check it out for yourself.

  3. James Cameron, the director of Titanic, considered to be one of the world's most educated on Titanic. Who did over a dozen dives to the wreckage of Titanic for research of the film lied to us? 😂😂😂

  4. When I was 11 a small article appeared in our local paper concerning the Titanic and a Steward who had served on the ship at the time of the sinking. Shortly after this my class was told to do a project on any non fictional subject, needless to say I chose the Titanic even though there was little interest in general on the subject at the time. I managed to track down the Steward and after an exchange of letters I was invited to his home, I persueded my Dad to take me.
    He was a lovely man and quite well spoken, he told of how he was on the stern of the ship as the ship went down, how he survived in the sea until being picked up by a lifeboat and eventually transferred to another ship. I had more than enough information for my project. As my Dad and myself left his house he handed me some keys that he had in his pocket at the time of the sinking.
    As the years went by and I left school I joined the British Merchant Navy in which I served for many years. I'm in my mid 70's now but often think of that meeting that inspired me to go to sea.

  5. 2:03 So the bottom of the hull is damaged, but the water comes down the stairs? 3:22 The Titanic was never referred to as 'unsinkable' before she sank.

    The gender divide in survivors was far greater than the class divide. While a passenger in first class was more than twice as likely to survive as one from third class, a woman (regardless of class) was four times more likely to survive than a man. As a result, the survival rate of women from third class was almost twice that of men from first class.

  6. The one crazy thing about the lifeboat. Convectional thought that there were not enough lifeboats for everyone, which is true HOWEVER, two lifeboats were still left on the ship before she sank. Even if they had enough lifeboats, there wouldn't have been the time to launch them anyway. It's a shame they didn't fill up the first few though…
