Because the water was very cold (-2o C), many of the passengers died because of that. I would think that some of them also got hurt before they got in the water, causing them to either drown because they was unconscious, or because they bled to death. Some of the passengers probably didn't had their life vest on, forcing them to struggle to keep them self afloat. They probably drowned (from being exhausted) / froze to death (from the cold water).
Many of the passengers could possibly have been saved if the lifeboats had came back for them.

∙ 12y agoThe water was freezing cold and there weren't enough life boats. And if the water is freezing people in the water can catch Hypothermia. Hypothermia is when your in something with freezing temperature and you should only be body temperature. When you catch Hypothermia it means that your body is below than what your body temperature should be. Hypothermia can kill someone in less than 15 minutes because of freezing temperature
