What would you do when you realise that the ship has been hit by an iceberg and is about to sink?

Most people probably would just panic and try to get off like rats from a sinking ship. Others would curse and swear at the designers of the vessel and the shipping line, because of their negligence, greed and the injustice, not to provide sufficient numbers of rescue boats. Or they would go on about their recklessness, choosing an unsafe course for the sake of breaking the record of the fastest voyage across the Atlantic. Some would even go as far as suspecting a conspiracy, an attempt on the life of one or more of the passengers, or simply a case of insurance fraud.

What other options do you have available? You could act like one of the gentlemen portrayed in the Titanic movie and go down in style, listening to nice music and getting drunk. For some reason, I really like this option, but unfortunately, it isn’t available on cattle class. Or you could hug your loved ones, tell them how much you love them and pray to God for a miracle.
