THE ONLY REASON THE NEVER FOUND HIS BODY IS BECAUSE HE WENT DOWN WITH THE SHIP AND BESIDES IF HE DID SURVIVE WHY THEN DIDN'T HE GO TO HIS PASSENGERS AND HELP GET OUT OF THE SITUATION AND FIND HELP FOR THEM? AND BESIDES HIS GRAVE WOULDN'T BE FOUND BECAUSE IT IS IN IRELAND.Quote:

I would agree with that. But perhaps IF he survived it, he couldn’t face the press in New York City. Questions such as, how did u manage to sink Titanic when you took a literal replica out before without incident? Or why didn’t you smash into the berg, why did you wait a while to send the S.O.S, why did you wait a log time to launch the life boats etc? No man or woman could answer all those questions, so if he really did survive which I doubt, then I think he disappeared, though I haven’t the faintest, how he managed it.

I read a quote somewhere, I think it was said by Jack Thayer, that someone swam up to his boat, (they couldn't see anything remember,) and asked "Is there any room for me?" they replied "no," because they didn't want him to swamp the boat, and he said "OK" and swam away. After that, Jacks said "That was Captain Smith, I know it was." So if Jack was right, than Captain Smith jumped.

I don't think that there is any way to be sure who that really was who swam up to the boat. I'm sure that there was someone else on the boat who had a white beard and was wearing a white dress suit. It could have been anyone, there's no way to be sure.Quote:

He wouldn't have survived thats for sure
if he jumped people would have seen him do it or would have seen his body in the water The only logical answer is that he went down with his ship bravely, Sad really to think about it |

True. The life jackets were also white. Quote:

but to think about it, if he had stayed in his room and went down with his ship bravely, they might have found his body in the room.

The bones would have long since been covered in dust or would have disappeared somehow.

Or maybe after the pole in which the crows nest was that fell on the bridge crushed the remains. Not very nice,

All human remains were long gone in a few years after the ship went down. Unless they're in special-treated leather, (which the fish won't touch,) there are no human remains left at the bottom, and there weren't any when they had the first expedition when they discovered it.
