No,I don't exactly know what he was doing when the Titanic was sinking,but i have two things,the following things are what I do know:
1.He was NOT sleeping.
2.He was NOT panicking.
Sorry that is all I know so far.
Is there dead people underwater on the titanic?
It is possible but we will really ever know unless someone video tapes the bottom of the ocean for twenty four hours but that is unlikely because not much light reaches the bottom of the ocean but if you want to believe there are ghosts then go a head but it is unlikely
Was there snow on the Titanic?
Not exactly. Researchers have found that the steel on the ship was made wrong and impurities were in the steel. This weakened the steel and in the cold water it became brittle so when it hit the iceburg it cracked like glass.
Can you show me a picture of what the Titanic looks like now?
a pile of rust most propably covered in fish and moldey rust!
Did they take titanic out of the water?
Because there are many lives lost on that ship, the captain and the lives that were lost out there they would want the ship to stay in the water and rest in peace.
That is 99% INCORRECT. A group of scientists already found the Titanic. If they took the Titanic out of the water, it would disintegrate. This would happen because the Titanic is so old and rotten, and has been in the ocean for a very long time.
Why did the Titanic break when sinking?
Technically yes. The Titanic ran into an iceberg. The Titanic was built to withstand a head-on collision with an iceberg however it ran into the berg from the side which tore a hole into the hull. . .
It is speculated that the Titanic would not have sunk if she ran straight into the iceberg however this is merely a speculation because it is impossible to go back in time and change it. . .
The movie took alot longer as it took 7 months to shoot the whole film where as the real Titanic hit the iceberg at 11:40pm & was completely sunk at 2:20am. Making that it took 2 hours 40 mins to sink. == == The run time for the movie was 194 minutes. ----
All ships are a she. Titanic was one of three Olympic class ships. Her sister ship Brtannic was sunk during WW1 when being used as a hospital ship. he but it has a sister britannic that fell too.???
There was only ONE pool on board the Titanic. It was the first heated pool onboard a luxury ocean liner. It was sealed off 10 seconds after the ship started to flood, and so has been hidden away (sealed off) from submersibles since it sank nearly a hundred years ago.
Who was the architect of the Titanic?
The designer of the Olympic-Class vessels was Alexander Carlisle. He abruptly left after Olympic, the first-one, was completed but he testified at the British Inquiry after the sinking.
What places did the titanic visit before sinking?
The Titanic went to pick up some passengers in New York.
Why did the titanic sink so quickly?
She had been so badly damaged by the impact of the collision with the iceberg that it has split a large hole in the starboard side.
The Titanic sank so quickly because it had 16 compartments and only four could be filled with water. but five filled with water and the weight of the water caused the ship to tilt up and the weight of the water broke the ship in two and it sank
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Since the damage occurred in the front half of the ship, the watertight features prevented the incoming water from spreading evenly throughout the lower portion of the ship. As the water rushed in to the bow (front end), that made that section heavier, causing it to tilt downward into the water. This caused the stern (rear end) of the ship to rise out of the water. With gravity pushing down on the rising stern, the ship eventually splits in two, causing it to sink even faster.
basicly it was filled with water as soon as it hit the iceberg
Some theories say that rivots were so weak that they broke off and caused many holes. The reason it sank really fast is because the water spilled over the short walls of the compartments.
5 of its 16 compartments were filled
The Titanic sank because more than four of the sixteen airtight compartments were full after Titanic hit an iceberg.

The main reason the R.M.S TITANIC sank so quickly is that it had a 220 to 245 foot long gash below the water line it and water was poring in at lest 1000 gallons per seconds at a time then the water filled a watertite campartment and it would folw over to the next and so one then then the ship brok in hafe so that is the reason the titanic sank so fast
There are compartments on the bottom of the ship that are meant to keep it afloat if one or two get punctured. An underwater portion of the berg sliced open five of these compartments simultaneously and the compartments aren't meant to deal with that kind of damage.

How did people die in the water in titanic?
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.
How long were the people on the titanic before it hit the ice burg?
