re: If you were a passanger on the Titanic, how would you have reacted?

I'd do literally anything to get my wife and kids on a boat. I'd stab and shank and punch and kick until they were on a boat. Then I'd try to find something floating in the water for myself.

I once read that many of the people jumped in the water not realizing they'd freeze to death so quickly. They thought they'd be fine floating in the water in life jackets. So with this hindsight ( ) I would immediately try to get on something out of the water.
