Yes, right before the titanic submerged under the water hundreds of people jumped off and tried to swim to safety and to a lifeboat. but unfortunately hypothermia kicked in and they where frozen dead.
Legend has it that the last person off the Titanic was the head chef. The story goes that he stood on the upturned stern, drinking from a bottle of alcohol, and as it finally sank, he entered the water, his head never submerging. One of the rescue boats plucked him from the water, a Survivor.
People were jumping off Titanic when she was sinking because there was a belief, wrong it seems, that the vessel would create a suction and pull everything (and everybody) down with her. As it was, she barely rippled the surface.
Passengers knew they were going to eventually die. Some thought they were going to make it and some thought they were going to fill up the lifeboats that were only filled up halfway.
They were travelling to New York, they obviously had no idea that it was going to sink before it got there.
The Titanic was supposed to be an "unsinkable" cruise ship. Everyone wanted to be on it's maiden voyage because of this.
People sailed Titanic because she was the largest, the grandest, and among the fastest, ship in the world. Trade magazines also touted her as "practically unsinkable".
Everybody wanted to sail Titanic because she was the largest and greatest ship in the world.
