1912年4月15日凌晨,号称“永不沉没的巨轮”泰坦尼克号在驶往北美洲的处女航中不幸撞到冰山,很快沉没在冰冷的北大西洋中,致使近两千名乘客和船员葬身鱼腹。这次沉船事件,成为世界航海史上最大的灾难。90多年来,“泰坦尼克”号沉没的真正原因,一直是人们探索的焦点。许多探索者著书立说,试图揭开这一谜团,然而由于种种条件的限制,至今无法获得令人信服的结论。然而这里要告诉大家的是,这场事故是由于一连串的错误导致的,包括设计缺陷,人为操作和判断失误等,这些都注定了这艘当时最大的游艇及其乘客和船员的可悲命运。这一连串错误少了任何一环,历史可能都将被改写。

We'd better get to start getting passengers into the______, Sir? Sir?
Yes, women and children first. Yes, let's do that.
Sir.
And then my mother had to say goodbye to my father. They'd only married about four years and so she was so brokenhearted then. She would never sweep about it. Because I was small, they couldn't hold me and had to put me in a sack.

Women and children only,sir.
Lightoller interprets Captain Smith's orders as women and children only. And that allowed unnecessary death, caused unnecessary deaths.

Ismay is on the starboard deck, helping women and children getting into the last lifeboat.

Did you see how many passengers were putting into this life boat?
No, I did not see at the time.
Did she appear to be fulled?
She was very full, very full. After all these women and children were in it. Pull it away. And after all the people that around the deck got in, I got in the shows being load away.
There was no order to you to get in?
No,none.

Ismay is one of the few men to take a place in the lifeboats. The last of the 16 wooden lifeboats leaves with 1700 people left on board.

The ship can stay______ for only 30 more minutes.

Men you have done your full duty. You can do nothing more. Abandon your Cabin. It's every man for himself now.
