Great Job Captain Smith!

When Captain Smith cries out via a speakerphone, "Abandon ship! Every man for themselves!" Adding a greater sense of panic to the already panicking crowd.
This did not happen in reality. During the sinking, Captain Edward John Smith simply blended into the background and did very little in coordinating the evacuation. Though, this film is highly priest for its historical accuracy, and is in my opinion a must watch.

Abandoned ship every man for his self!

You realise that this is a fiction? The Captain did not give an abandon ship order in this manner. When the water was up to the bridge swamping the crew's feet, Smith told his men putting people into the last collapsible lifeboat very quietly "You've done your duty boys, it's every man for himself now, God bless you'. That's the sworn testimony of many survivors. Surely you realise that many scenes are altered for dramatic effect? Like Murdoch shooting himself in Cameron's film? Captain Smith is much maligned, but if you actually bother to study the history, he was not at fault, he was not indecisive or incompetent, and he died a hero.
