8:06 pm
brandy and smoking a cigar, dressed, of course in their best. >> guggenheim and his valet did not even attempt to try to get into the lifeboat, and there was a code of honor that existed within first class men that they would not behave in such a dastardly fashion would never see madeleine again and he would never see theirand still on board. >> ida strauss refused to leave her husband isidor, aside my great grandmother saw them sitting together, holding hands, arm in arm on deck chairs on the deck of titanic as it went down band was on board playing ragtime tunes to try to keep
8:07 pm
the the spirits up, but things grew more dire and at about five minutes before the actual titanic fully went down, they played one final song what the last song was that the band played on the ship. >> if i had to give my own opinion, it would be nearer my god today, because that's what wallace hartley said he would play if he was ever on a sinking ship band survived. >> they all died around 215 when water reached the bridge as the weight of water pulled the bow lower and lower. >> you still had this very buoyant stern of the titanic. >> all of a sudden, the waves sort of came over them and engulfed them. they felt the
8:08 pm
ship really sinking the decks to the stern to stay out of the water. >> people tried to cling on to anything they could and at a certain point unless you're holding on to something, you're just going to slip down the decks into the sea. people were falling, dropping into the ocean. there were screams. there was panic. there was hysteria some of the lifeboats that were very close in could see the ship rearing up over their heads, which must have been very frightening and survivors were able at quite close range to just observe titanic as she slowly sank and they noticed the portholes blazing with light. >> one after another, dipping down under the water one by one, disappearing under the north atlantic and then the lights went out out and suddenl
8:09 pm
all they could see was the black hull of titanic silhouetted against the stars. >> there was a mention of the stern sticking straight up like a finger pointing at the sky when suddenly you've got all this weight out of the water. it had to break. >> this is a massive amount of pressure to the tune of like 2,000,000 foot tons of pressure. specific area right about where the third funnel is. the bow and stern would separate, and everything pulling apart like a party popper and a few moments after that, the ship broke in half in the lifeboat, and i think she even stood up at one point because with all the screaming going on when the ship went down, she thought she heard her husband, john jacob astor calling the ship sink from these
8:10 pm
lifeboats >> two hours and 40 minutes after the collision titanic slipped beneath the waves for the last time. at 2:20 a.m.. itself breaks apart and begins to go down faster. >> the rms titanic is lost as water fills in. the air rushes out the stern goes down slower, spinning as it falls and scattering its debris over a larger area on the bottom. as the two pieces fall, the bow and the stern land an incredible distance apart. on the bottom of the ocean. on the surface of the atlantic, it would have been horrifying a scene of of absolute despair

>> steel doesn't lie. you can see where it broke. it actually helps you explain. this is what happened, how it actually came apart. >> where the bow broke off was about 220. >> and you had all these people in the water the temperature of the sea meant that nobody was going to live more than a few minutes. >> the conditions in the water were absolutely brutal. the air temperature was 30. some degrees, but the water temperature was 28 degrees. >> if you swam to one of these lifeboats, you stood a chance because you could get completely out of the water.
8:17 pm
and that was critical to survival and there was one woman who swam to a lifeboat and she was the only woman to go down with the ship and survive. but if you were in the water, it was just going to suck the heat out of you you were going to freeze there were eyewitness reports at the time of working class mothers in the water holding their babies aloft, trying to save them, to keep them out of the icy water. the boats that were virtually more than half empty, that could have gone back and just chose not to and didn't it's very hard for a modern audience to understand why the lifeboats didn't go back to rescue more passengers a lot of them had rowed as far away from the ship as possible they would have seen people drowning around them and had that awful pressure thinking, shall we go and help these people, or shall we keep our lifeboat safe secure, emptier, without more people so we survive? >> the other thing is, they're in a lifeboat in the north

8:19 pm
>> it wouldn't have taken a whole lot to swamp the 16 wooden lifeboats. >> it was very, very cold in the lifeboats. >> they had no water. they had no food. they barely had any light. and your mind goes to a dark place. am i going to float around until i freeze to death? they have no steaming towards them. full steam ahead some people perished in the lifeboats from hypothermia. >> i can imagine juliet trying to keep her daughters warm. it's hard enough to keep yourself warm, let alone trying to keep two little girls warm and calm and not panic or freak out all of a sudden they're seeing icebergs everywhere. >> huge icebergs 70ft, 100ft, icebergs looming over them. and they think we're all dead

8:28 pm
pictures of titanic's lifeboats coming up to the carpathia. so those pictures exist today because captain rostron actually asked mr. ogden personally, can you record this for history the carpathia had an officer in it, and it was officer boxhall captain rostron said, hello, young man can you tell me what happened to the titanic? he just bawling his eyes out. just started crying and all boxhall could tell him is the ship's gone down. >> all these people are dead. >> and at that point, that's the first time anybody outside of the people that were directly impacted realized how significant the disaster really was. >> remarkably for that time, there was a second camera on board the carpathia and that is part of what let us see the shell shocked survivors as they were pulled from the water they were given food drink, found a

happened. >> the last section of the titanic haul still floating before she finally sank was the stern. it was standing on end out of the water. the last people still aboard titanic were at the stern hanging on for life titanic movie director james cameron meticulously researched the human drama at the back of the ship, and he made room in his film for several of those miraculous survivor stories many movie watchers wondered if they could possibly be true. one of the most famous stories features the titanic's baker who incredibly, found a way to survive the sinking did that could that have really happened cameron's movie came out in 1997, suddenly you could see titanic as it were, in full color, brought back to life in
8:34 pm
your hand will pull you over. >> come on, give me your hand. >> very few people that were on the stern after it broke actually survived one i can think of who did survive was baker see him in cameron's movie. he's right next to rose and jack on the stern wearing a white baker suit he was right on the end of the ship when it went under. he just stood up and he didn't even get his hair wet water into a lifeboat there were a few other passengers in the water who miraculously made it to safety when the titanic went down, you had all these people in the water some of them did swim and a few people got on. >> some wreckage so that they were found there was one man who tied himself to a door. he was a sailor, and so he lashed
8:35 pm
himself to a door, and he was found that way and rescued. i'll never let go. >> fans of the movie have been going on endlessly about the fact that jack could have lived. he could have gotten on that door. >> what brought you to titanic? did an interview with with with bob, with doctor ballard when i was doing the abyss because i was fascinated by deep submergence technology and rovs and all the stuff that he was doing. >> i'm kind of a gearhead so i get i got fascinated by that aspect of it, and then i had to go back and do the do the history. >> and the more you got into it, the more you got into it, right? >> he's become an expert on himself and is not afraid to critically look back and see if new information has changed. the story that he himself has so expertly crafted. >> i've discovered surprising new things about the ship. we'll look back to see what we got right and what we didn't. we found it. you can have the stern sink vertically and you can have the stern crawl back with a big splash, but you can't have both. so the film is wrong on one point or the
8:36 pm
other. i tend to think it's wrong on the fallback of the stern because of what we see at the bow of the wreck he's actually joked maybe i need to remake the movie now because the scenario has changed a bit. >> to me, the most lasting legacy is that james cameron was able to launch numerous expeditions. >> i've made 33 dives to the wreck site james cameron didn't stop his research with his film. >> in 1997. he wanted answers to many more of the mysteries of the ship. he wanted to see the interior and he wanted to show that in his film ghosts of the abyss inside titanic some things were perfectly frozen in time, while others had fallen apart. >> 73 years after it sank a team of french and american scientists announced they'd found the titanic two and a half miles down the search for the titanic was part of a secret military mission.
8:37 pm
>> the expedition that found titanic was really the product of a deal with the u.s. government that was searching for lost nuclear submarines in the 1960s. >> the us lost two nuclear submarines in the north atlantic uss thresher and uss scorpion the navy wanted ballard to document the submarines. it was also going to see if they'd been tampered with. the us had tried to lift a soviet sub off the bottom of the ocean. why shouldn't the soviets try to do the exact same thing? there was obviously nuclear material on those subs, and that that was covered up during the cold war and the cover story was that he was looking for the titanic but the agreement was if you find them, take the extra time and go looking for the titanic and that's exactly what he did female to dive the wreck of the titanic in deep sea submersible and it was an incredible opportunity because i was at the time, the curator of
8:38 pm
exhibitions and expeditions for rms titanic incorporated its most stated purpose to educate the public about titanic and preserve these artifacts. >> to maintain that physical link to the story, we felt that responsibility to make sure we were recording the history really do well down there, in terms of the elements are glass, porcelain anything that is textile or paper or writing. >> why? because you don't have light down there. it's dark it's cool conditions. they're perfectly preserved to an extent jewelry conserves really well bottom of the ocean. >> a lot of shoes were found in pairs on the ocean bed and they thought how extraordinary these shoes sitting in pairs. how could that be well, of course,
8:39 pm
what it was was they were the shoes of people who had gone down. and the ocean. life had destroyed the bodies that left the shoes. so that's why they were together in pairs. and there was nothing else there. >> the tannic acid and leather keeps the little organisms from eating the shoes. there are fish down there. the tiny organisms and so we're a body had landed everything else would be gone, but the shoes would still be there actually being eaten away by microbes. when the ship was found, the gymnasium was a lot more intact and now it's completely opened up the roof over the marconi room is now a big gaping hole these bacteria that are eating the steel, they poop out essentially is what's been termed rusticles because they look like icicles hanging off the wreck, but they're
8:40 pm
actually made of rust byproducts and gradually these microbes will munch their way through the wreck until there is nothing left at all, apart from a rusting it will slowly deteriorate like a house crumbling down on itself. >> while i don't believe that the wreck should be plundered on a routine basis until there's nothing left, it would be a shame if after 100 years, the sea has consumed all of the relics worth having >> it's a night that's good for the soul. join anderson cooper and laura coates for cnn heroes, an all star tribute thank you guys. meet the honorees and celebrate their life changing achievements. >> they're ordinary people doing extraordinary things. >> then find out who'll be named the cnn hero of the year it's really incredible. plus, don't miss a special tribute to this year's legacy award honoree, michael j. fox cnn heroes, an all star tribute sunday, december 8th on cnn my
