Why wouldn't you just go get mattresses from all the rooms and then throw them On top of each other and wrap some rope around them it's as simple as that
>>
mattresses don't float anon.

This but with the bathtubs

Maybe don't be incompetent and the boat won't sink in the first place?
>>
>>198578171
Why didn't they just agree to allow the federal reserve so they wouldn't have to sink the boat and kill them?
>>
A bunch of the lifeboats were still attached to the ship when it sank. Just go to one of those and set it up yourself, the crew didn't know what was happening anyway, nobody would stop you.
>>
>>198578171
The best option might be to quickly make a run for it and jump to the point of tossing yourself overboard towards one of the life boats. Maybe you might hit someone onboard, even injuring yourself or them, but both might live. Waiting in line would have been statistically less favorable, if they even let you wait in a line.

It's been proven that only way to survive this is to get extremely drunk.

Yeah it was pretty stupid that it took them that long to launch lifeboats when the screws weren't even turning and they were just sitting there like, "Uhh man, I hope all this water, like, goes away."
When deck windows were underwater was a pretty good fucking clue that it was going down.

It took 3 hours. What in the FUCK was the captain doing for those 3 hours?
It hit the iceberg.

would've taken cranes thrown on top of each other and tied with rope to get them out

Get a crane to get it out.

Probably opium.

I will never understand why the ultra rich guys just sat around and waited to die lol. Just offer someone on a boat money and get on. I'll give you $10000 to let me on this boat. You're saved.

How does /tv/ approach this?

i grab a first class woman jump overboard with her in front of the wheelhouse so they are forced to stop the ship and rescue us

>>198579843
I dont convince the captain. I got warn the mate up top that suppose to be the vigil.
I tell him to wake the fuck up.

>>198579843
I would do absolutely nothing. I would just listen, because that's what no one else did.

I tell him not to panic but I think there might be Ir*sh "people" on the ship. Then I ask him for a gun and all the ammo he can spare and to lock all the exit to 3rd class once I am down there
>>
>>198579976
Did you have breakfast this morning, anon? Anon's approach makes sense because

Therefore the challenge. Your goal is to convince the captain. Not do some other side quests.

Got to a thrift shop and find the oldest looking women's clothing I can.

it was an autistic setup, you had to go down below deck towards where the boilers are and take a long ass ladder up. you didn't just take a ladder from the top deck

Just do what the chef did, get shit faced and throw furniture overboard.

Walk where? There's no more whater so you're already on land, unless you can walk on air which negates the usage of mattresses in the first place.

>>198578328
Force all women passengers to give up their tampons and use it to soak up all the water in the bulkheads.

Grab a gun from an officer, force everyone to the bridge 10 minutes before impact. Tell them to keep their heading and slow down 50 percent, and that in 20 minutes they'll see an iceburg dead ahead. After it's confirmed I tell them I'm from the future and just saved their bloody lives.

then I shoot them all, hit full speed and ram the fucking burg anyway

>>198579784
While $10000 would be a good financial motivator in many cases exchanging your life for money you cannot spend before you die would probably be a hard sell

It's like the whole "If the sea levels are rising just sell your beach front properties" line

That's ridiculous. It would take a crane to get out.

Because the true story of Titanic has actually never really been told. Nobody thought it was going to sink...until it clearly was and by then everyone was trying to get to a lifeboat, and as for the mattress/impromptu manufacturing of lifeboats out of furniture, it was too late. There were some people that actually did throw deck chairs into the water, like that infamous chef that somehow managed to survive spending the whole night just swimming around, but by the time people figured out that the ship was going to sink it was too late to "go back" and make a raft; also the lights cut out much sooner than the movie makes it out to be.

Lastly, bed mattresses soak up water. I remember when I was a kid my friends threw an old mattress into the pool of a kid we didn't like and they had to drain the pool and cut it into pieces in order to get it out; otherwise they would've had to get a crane. Real life isn't like a movie....oh and a lot of people were asleep already and just didn't give a fuck.

Why didn't everyone just get hooched up?

This post is very anti-semitic
>>
fun fact: there were plenty of life boats around but the majority of passengers were clueless chucklefucks and didn't want to get in them
>>
>>198579000
you don't know what you are talking about at all

they noticed the ship was going to sink pretty much immediatley and started launching life boats pretty early. The problem was that there wasn't enough lifeboats for everybody so ship crew in charge of lifeboats made the call to only put women and children on the boats and keep the men behind. Doing this meant many lifeboats departed with empty spots on them but all lifeboats WERE released. If you were a women in class 1 or 2 your chance of survival was near 99%, a women from class 3 was more like 80% because the crew forgot to unlock the lower gates for 40 mins. It's men that drowned.
>>
>>198578171
All you had to do was kill a few people tie them together and youve got a boat as dead bodies float because of all gas inside, its that easy
>>
>>198579784
they didn't do that because back in that time british men had a sense of honor. a big deal was made at the time about and churchill made a famous quote saying something along the lines of "if it were ancient greeks or romans the upperclass would have bribed there way off the boat but the titanic is a testament to the superiority of british character and civilization"

Create a tower of mattresses by stacking them on top of each other so they hit the ocean floor, then the top few mattress will be above the waterline and will be dry. Just wait it out on your lux Serta Sleeper Pillow-Top till rescue ships arrives with caviar and champagne.
>>
>>198578171
Icebergs cant break steel beams, its all fake
>>
>>198579843
I'd ask one of the crew for information regarding other ships nearby.
Then I would steal as much food as I can carry, heave it all into one lifeboat, and fuck off ASAP. Determinism is real.
>>
If I was on that boat it wouldn't have gone down like it did
>>
>>198578171
Went to the Titanic museum in Belfast in January. It was bloody fantastic.
>>
>>198583749
Your weight would have sunk it ever earlier?
>>
>>198583749
There would be a lot of shit and piss in that first class cabin
>>
>>198582395
it should also be noted that, back then, the purpose of a lifeboat was not to permanently house the entire population of a ship but rather ferry passengers between the sinking ship and another nearby ship

the assumption was that another ship would reach the Titanic before it had sunk completely, which granted, would have been true if the telegraph operator of the nearest ship hadn't turned his equipment off
>>
>>198583746
There was only one nearby and it ignored/didnt see the distress flares.

couldnt they just got all the salt from the kitchen to put on the iceberg and melt it?
>>
>>198578336
You cheeky cunt.
>>
>>198583895
If all the passengers went to the front of the ship and breathed out carbon dioxide then the iceberg surely would have melted before they hit it.

>>
>>198579843
Captain will ignore me as a lunatic. Warn as many of the passengers that there are icebergs up ahead, have them gather at the front of the ship as lookouts, and hope for an early warning to avert disaster.

Back up plan is this: >>198580068

Other back up plan is Rape.

Why didn't they throw more doors in the water? They must have had almost enough for every passenger to have a door!
>>
>>198578989
Only a problem if what, more than 4 compartments have leaks? Most damage would have been a single point of impact, hell, Titanic could have rammed the iceberg and survived.

>>198579843
I explain to him that this is all a ploy to create the US federal reserve and that it will doom the white race over the next 100 years.

But the captain was a freemason and was in on it

Why not just grab all of the ice from the kitchen, throw it out and simply walk away from the ship on the floating ice?
>>
>>198585770
FUCK!
>>
The mattress would soak up the water and you'd freeze to death
>>
>>198578328
Suppose you just dumped a bunch of debris like this near where the ship was damaged. Would it be possible to plug the hole and make the ship sink slower?
>>
>>198579000
1. They actually launched pretty much right away
2. They were slow to launch because people didn't want to get on them. They thought the boat was unsinkable/rescue would be there soon
3. Yes, Captain Smith was notoriously unreliable during the sinking and did pretty much nothing
