But some people survived and lived but it was a scary and horrible time for the people that survived and died.</a>
The captain was blamed by US senate inquirles because Captain Smith got a message that there is a large iceberg near the titanic but he was too fast and the titanic had a large propeller.
he was blamed for ignoring the message.
he wasn't the only one who got blamed, they also blamed the British Board for poor safety and inspection with only few life boats. Mostly, people died by hypothermia=freezing in the icy water
