Immediately the ship turned, but not soon enough. The iceberg tore a 300-foot hole in the hull and water began to pour in, At fig,st the captain didn’t worry because the ship was said to be" unsinkable". Then the ship began to lean, At 12:05 the captain gave the order "Uncover the lifeboats"!
The Wireless operator sent out an SOS signal. Six ships began to race towards the Titanic. But the two ships who were closest did not hear the desperate calls for help.
At two a.m. the captain gave the order "Abandon ship !" A few minutes later the Titanic began to slip beneath the surface. One by one the last passengers jumped into the sea. Then the stem rose up in the air and the Titanic sank quickly out of sight.
