The Only Way to Survive a Sinking Ship

[@BRIGHTSIDEOFFICIAL]

Hey there, BrightSiders! Would you rather choose being on a sinking ship or a plane falling down? ✈️😱

Whats funny is that captain schettino is in jail because he got on a life boat instead of going down with the ship

[@pastorart1974]

If you get into a lifeboat, as soon as your boat is in the water, drive it or row it as far away from the sinking ship as possible. If you are swimming in the water this is also important. Swim as far away as you can. The reason is that large ships create a whirlpool, and if you are too close the whirlpool will drag you down. This is true even if you are wearing a lifevest. Trust what I am saying because when I was younger, I spent 18 months of my life stationed on a Destroyer in the US Navy. I have sailed across the Pacific Ocean twice.

[@Dorito8052]

I cannot stress this enough, ALWAYS GET AWAY FROM THE SHIP! People can underestimate the suction. I remember hearing about an old shipwreck where a large amount of the passengers died because they didn’t get away from the ship in time.

[@fireview7]

This Isnt correct Because it is more likely of you getting rescue if your nearer to where the ship sank. As Rescuers Will Start Looking There.

[@Infernal_Crimson]

Thank you for the tips!

[@martinan22]

Many of the people that survived M/S Estonia survived half submerged in 9°C (49°F) for six hours with hardly any clothes at all. What saved them was that they had to constantly struggle to stay as high as possible on an upside down lifeboat or upside down raft, their muscles producing heat and helping them survive hours longer than should be possible in such conditions.

[@jonbonesmahomes7472]

Yeah that was a miracle.. They had to survive twice that fatal night 1) avoid staying inside heavily listing ship and get out as soon as possible 2) surviving the cold water

Hey there Bright Side! I work on ships, and another great life saving tip is to bring a flashlight, as well as a water bottle if you have time. Remember, if the lights go out, and if you don’t have a flash light, feel the wall, and go up, look for eliminated or glow in the dark exit signs/ arrows usually located near the ceiling as well as the floor. Wear bright clothes if possible and also try to put on clothed toed shoes. 🤙🏽👌🏽🐋🦈🌍

The Estonia wasn't a "small" ship buy any means. It's ridiculous how you correlate the size with the cause of the sinking. She was a massive ship, built for thousands of passengers and hundreds of cars. What failed was not a simple "door" but the front gate of the car deck.

On a cruise ship, you don't put on extra clothes, grab your valuables and luggage and rush for the nearest life boat, you grab ONLY your life jacket and report to your mustering station (or if you're not near your cabin, you just report to the mustering station where they will give you a life jacket) and then follow the crew's directions for quick and orderly evacuation. That's why you have the safety drill! Lifeboats don't have space for luggage and non-essentials.

It doesn't matter if you are "willing" to listen to the safety precautions or not. The muster drill is required by maritime law and generally only lasts up to an hour. One hour ot of a week or more long cruise to hear information that could potentially save your life isn't really too much to ask.

[@feildofdreams1336]

Never put on your life jacket inside... most ships (at least mine does) have green arrows or some form of exit strategy in the ladderwells (stairs). No food or water before 24 hours unless sick or injured. Don’t put on waterproof items just regular cloths to keep warm... more the better for long periods of survival. Always report something that is damaged... weird sounds better for a crew member to check it out then to leave it unnoticed. Once you are off the ship stay in the general area of the ships last location bigger and brighter objects are better seen. The list goes on...

[@Name-lt2tz]

yea yea, I also thouth - why he recoomends put life jacked inside ship. Yea on the other hand while you have jacket in hand, somebody else can steal it from you. If you wear the jacked , stealing becomes harder. But if ignoring stealing , then if there is full of water inside ship, it might move you up and make it harder to go throug doors. I heard that in planes - to use jacked not inside plane

The 'muster' drill is where you learn to find and gather near your designated life boat. Also, crew members demonstrate how to put on the life vest. This 'muster' drill is mandatory, and failing to attend and refusing to participate can get you put off the ship right then and there.

Pay attention during the muster drill. Always make sure you know how to get to an outside deck. Consider carrying around a small flashlight in case the power goes out and emergency lights don't kick on for some reason. If you take prescription meds, have them in a go bag you can grab quickly. Expect to take the stairs, not the elevators.
