Many people died on the Titanic that day, but instead of remembering the pain, the world romanticizes the ship and the event. People overlook the number of passengers that reached the end of their life rather they romanticize the Titanic and its passengers deaths. Slavitt states, “Not so bad, after all.
The water then spread to the whole ship causing the passengers, as well as the crew, to panic and try and escape safely from the sinking ship. But, because of the inadequate number of lifeboats stored on the ship, 68% of the 2,240 total people on the ship that night passed away. Though Thomas Andrews was a large factor in the lives lost on the Titanic, he may not be the only one to blame, for instance, Bruce Ismay may be the sole cause of the deaths on the night of the Titanic's sinking.

The Titanic, most definitely man’s greatest accomplishment, is made in Belfast, Ireland, where it is then set off into the open ocean, and set for Southampton, England. From there, on April 11, 1912, 2:00 p.m., the Titanic sets sail for New York. All seems well, and it looks for the first time, that man has built the “unsinkable ship.” However, the hopes, lives, ship and all are cut down by an iceberg and now rest at the bottom of the Atlantic. This horrendous fact was shown in both the book and the movie, “A Night to Remember,” along with many other facts and stories.
They had to cope with the struggles that the accident had brought them. Each of the survivors lived each moment in fear and suffering with the thought that many of the passengers died and have been injured in the plane crash. The accident left physically, mentally and emotionally severely damage: “Worse than the cold that night was the atmosphere of panic and hysteria in the cramped cabin of the Fairchild” (Read 32).

The Titanic’s maiden voyage was a disaster because the people didn’t prepare for things like this. Most ships go over a safety procedures, but the Titanic didn’t do such a thing.
