At least, not if a time traveler like you who knows exactly what happened were there. There are escape ladders to climb above the bulkheads.)Ģ That might not be entirely correct. (The bulkheads have watertight doors that the captain of Titanic sealed immediately after impact, but nobody is trapped. Instead, Titanic’s bulkheads extend approximately 50 feet above the water line and then stop. These bulkheads are designed to compartmentalize any flooding so that a single gash doesn’t flood the entire ship, but though these waterproof sections are sometimes called compartments, that’s a bit of a misnomer because these sections don’t have ceilings.

Like many ships today, Titanic had a series of waterproof walls-called bulkheads or partitions-running across its width. Unfortunately, the locations of the holes could hardly have been worse. The size of the holes, added up, only amounts to the surface area of a small closet door. The extent of the damage is relatively minor. When I asked ship designer and naval architect Jan-Erik Wahl why Titanic sank in this unfathomably sturdy way, he told me it has everything to do with the exact nature of the damage and the design of the hull.Īs you’re tightening your tie or adjusting your finest gown, water is rushing in through a series of small slits sliced into the forward starboard hull. They viewed lifeboats as token nods to safety, like seat cushions-as-floatation devices. Ship designers and passengers at the time didn’t expect to survive a shipwreck long enough to use one anyway. Shipwrecks don’t always occur this way, especially at the turn of the century, which partially explains why Titanic lacked sufficient lifeboats. The time Titanic takes to founder allows you to escape from even its lowest holds, but it also produces a dramatic story of human drama that partially explains the wreck’s infamy. As a result, you not only have extra time to prepare yourself in your bunk, but when you make it to the decks, instead of the sheer chaos that accompanies most founderings, you’ll find a sociological cocktail of gallantry, cowardice, courage, chivalry, sacrifice, prayer, panic, and even music.

It sinks so slowly you could make an interminable movie out of its demise. It never capsizes nor even takes on a serious list. The great ship takes nearly three hours to finally go below, and it’s almost graceful in its descent. Titanic is sinking, but it’s doing so slowly. Getting dressed will take a few extra minutes, but don’t worry. It will help if you look the part.Īfter you’ve changed, put on your life jacket (called a "life belt" here on Titanic). They are an invitation-only party that you need to crash. The lifeboats are on the first-class deck. Put on a tux, a dress, or at the very least brush your hair. Instead, change into your finest clothing.
