i wouldnt have made a boat but i would have devised sometype of raft! it would have been easy anough with all th furniture and floatable objects! i would have also nick a oil lamp or candle or watever so i wud been seen as the life boats came back, u may say people didnt realize theyre was a problem, dor gods sake, they had 2 hours to work it out!
also i would have gone into all the rich peoples suites and robbed theyre jewels and money(if i where 3rd class of course)

thats a bit farfetched. If u had the right tools maybe, but more ppl were just interested in saving their own skins than start building boats. What if u wern't exactly skilled at crafting or woodwork, what a mess you would be in.

Yes, but most people did not believe the ship was goin to sink, even when the boats where being launched they still didnt. Not untill the ship really begain tilt and the bow got lower and lower did the panic start. This goes some where to answer the question why some boats where being launched at less than half capasity. People simply did not grasp how bad the situation was, many where under the impresion the boats would return later on once the pumps had fixed the problem and they would be on there mary way to new york, unfortunetly we all know that was not the case.

I would stay at the bar up to the end,and then would try to jump
into the water and catch one of the lifeboats.

qoute: hey titanic expert i have a ? what was the forth funnel used for?:quote it was ued for ventalation and because the disinger thought it was better to have four funnels instead of three cause the titanic only needed three


You know coolguy I was asked the question not you!Anyway you don't have it all.
The forth funnel was fake on both the Titanic and the Olympic.Lord Pirrie thought that a forth funnel would make the ships look grander.The fourth funnel carried vents from the turbine room and from the hugh coal stoves in the main kitchen.
i never knew about the vent but sorri i shouldent have answered it


It's okay.Just don't do it next time.
