I started not believing this. And the more accounts I've read about it, I actually think he did shoot himself. All the officers had revolvers. They were all issued with revolvers. And I think he had shot someone who was storming the boats.

And I think the combination of him feeling guilty for all the sort of carnage that was going to happen and the fact that he just shot someone, I think he did step back and shoot himself. So I do actually believe that. But, you know, at the time, there was a sort of stigma against that.

The story of Titanic is told in a very romantic way. In fact, the whole sinking sequence almost from the collision was utterly terrifying.

A great wave swept Titanic as she lurched down forwards, and this wave actually caused the forward funnel of Titanic to become unmoored and smash down on a lot of people swimming in the water.

The strength funnel falls down onto the starboard wing bridge and then sploshes down into the water. It creates a tidal wave, if you like. It creates a huge wave that flips over collapsible B and pushes it away from the ray.

The reality of Titanic after the lifeboats left is just too ghastly. It was like a living hell. It was absolutely like carnage on the battlefield.

The keel itself was actually ripped in half, if you can imagine that, by the forces of the waterlogged bow and the buoyant, still airtight, if you like, stern, sort of fighting against each other.

Titanic did then sort of break her back, if you like. And what happened was the keel stayed attached, but the superstructure split away. The stern crashes down to the water.

And then for a moment, all the passengers who mostly are on this little sort of stern, it's called the poop deck of Titanic, they think they're going to survive because once the bow has shaken itself free, the stern actually settles a bit and goes a bit more on an even keel.

Some people say they were able to just step off the stern without any waves. One person says they didn't even get their head wet when they stepped off the back of the ship.
