Did they bring up part of the titanic?

They have never tried to bring it up as a whole, or rather a half of the original ship. There have been numerous salvaging operations that have undergone gathering pieces of miscellaneous items that surround the ship, as well as a chunk of iron from the hull itself. I recently read an article in National Geographic that went into great details about whats been surfaced of the wreck and the opposition of doing just that

Did First Officer Murdoch of the Titanic really kill two men with the warning shots and then commit suicide?

I'm not sure, but I'm positive he did because everyone was panicking and he didn't know what to do when he shot them so he thought it was the best if he shot himself too.


Although it has been claimed that shots were fired on the night of the sinking, if this is true no one really knows who fired the shots. However survior accounts claim that Murdoch was last seen attempting to launch Collapsible Lifeboat "A" He was never seen after and is assumed to have died in the water.

No, he did not kill any passengers. He was commended for saving passengers. In fact he was the only officer who ensured all his lifeboats were launched full. He made no distinction between the different passenger classes. First Officer William McMaster Murdoch was portrayed as a villain in the film Titanic to introduce excitement. The truth was the opposite. The film makers agreed to $8400 to the village in Scotland as recognition of the 'error' and apologized to his surviving family.

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.
