RMS Titanic sunk in 1914, and that process took over two hours, and that means the ship could be evacuated in very good order. But the lifeboats were not laid down in the right time, and that meant, the ship went down with many passengers. This accident was one of the most horrifying things, what happened in the peacetime sea routes. The accident of Titanic made a very bad thing for the White Star line's public image. And the reputation of some passengers and crew members were lost forever because they claimed to favor the first class passengers, and that caused the situation, that the third class passengers left in the trap at the lower deck, because of the doors to the lower decks were closed.
In the film below is the real-time film about sinking, and by looking at it, you might realize, how long the sinking took. And if captain Smith would be ordered to drive back the ship could sink even slower. This is only speculation. But delivering lifeboats could begin earlier, and the major question is, why those lifeboats delivered with half empty? Why the crew didn't look that the lifeboats were filled with people?
The sister ship of the Titanic, HMHS Britannic hit to mine at Aegean sea in 1916, and the sinking of that ship took an hour. In that case, only 30 persons died, what is an interesting detail because that ship was served as the hospital for wounded soldiers. That means those persons couldn't be in the best physical condition, what means that those evacuation plans were very good. The good question is, why Titanic was overbooked? Why there was too little number of lifeboats? And how it passed the check if there were not enough places in the lifeboats at the emergency situations?
Or could there be something else reasons, for the great number of survivors? Was that ship used for some other purposes than a hospital ship, or were those men so little wounded, that they could walk away from that ship? This is a very interesting detail in that story because if that ship was full of wounded patients, who need surgery, was the moving to the lifeboats be very painful. And sometimes somebody has told the joke, that the ship was served as the headquarters of the British southern front in the World War II.
