we couldn't make out what the ships were what we heard them talk of seeing people overboard and speculating that it looked like a boat or a small ship it capsized once we heard that we put on more speed to get there faster when we did arrive at the tragedy site we saw terrible things and only when we realized that it was the area that had sunk to the true scope of the disaster strikers. how long did it take you to get to the scene. yes i would say about five to ten minutes fifteen at most from the moment we heard the radio talk it all happened very quickly as we were nearing the site we began to figure out how many people there were in the water although that was hard to do because there was a lot of rubble floating around as well it was very hard to pick out individual people from among the floating debris it was truly a tragic picture of. what condition where these people where they panic stricken to sound. when we got them on board we had so much to deal with and if of course they were kind of stricken they were in deep shock what happened is quite horrible my

crew members who were involved in rescue works they got deeply involved too some people were in a dreadful condition many were injured they had all all over their skin because when the ship sank the fuel came up to the surface and spread everywhere and covered the people that made rescue even harder because the oil made the victims were easy and hard to get a holes to pull them on board seeing children in da condition it was particularly heart breaking with you and probably it was very hard on survivors. had lost family members of the tragedy. as far as i know although it may be wrong i understand that only one family survived the wreck without losing any members of the most people did lose their close and loved ones and yes indeed it was very hard for both on the survivors and on us too we all felt very deeply for them. right there was just that saskia area crew were coping with it and how are they doing now it must have been

hugely stressful because that double was we couldn't afford to think about stress we had to do all we could to prevent panic spreading of course each of us felt it deep inside but we had to remain calm and professional to control our feelings. and succeeded in saving so many people a total of seven to seven what helped you do that was there anything particular that helped. killed as well you know i find it hard to say what helped us because after that storm there was a brief period of calm and it happened just as we approached the wreck site that short moment of camelot is to pull people on board once the rescue operation was over and we went to investigate the wreck site again the rough weather came back over the water was very rough again we got there just in time as for the crew when i already said that they performed in the last possible way everyone acted very competently the speed of the crew significantly helped save people's lives they just wanted to get the job done how many passengers were on board at that time and

how did they react when the arabella was taxed to full capacity at the time one hundred fifty passengers they acted like heroes our youth is allowed were deliberately they helped a lot i consoled the injured and there were doctors among the tourists on the arabella they assisted the ship's medic as he rendered first aid and they gave a lot of psychological support to survivors that was very important. to people who survived the ship practical the journalists had run they found themselves in the water and the boat sank they were instantly cope and of what's happened after the rock and then popped up to the surface again one of the sack if that is because they're the same king boat from the sort of funnel that put everything in what happens in reality. more than that of course a sinking boat can pull objects floating on the surface onto the water because of the huge water displacement that churns the water into a whirlpool that can stop people live about it but the people who were afloat when the ship sank most of found enormous strength to fight the world pool and return to

the surface it is difficult to tell because i have never been in their shoes and i can't imagine what it would be like if. they've been the one point pick them up. i can't be precise about that but i think they were in the water for half an hour or so some of them are trying to get into life rafts others were still in the water you start seeing. there are a few theories of how this tragedy could have happened and one of them sas the boat attack on the facts esophageal guarantee sometime before the same time it's not a factor to you as you see not all technical defects can be seen from outside experts say that the crews are listed to one side i don't know how dangerous this was for the passengers because i'm not familiar with ships of this tight i've never worked on the design of put it listed and everyone knows it as for the technical state of the cruiser i say again that i can't pass judgment because i never inspected its engine but it is very difficult to tell if you don't know the particulars like your eye witnesses who insist that the boat with it to the right

even when it was darker so the listing was visible i'm not sure it was worth zero because i wasn't there and i want to ask you this question is it true over here but then we go to you i told you just now that the boat was listing but i can't tell you how critical it was to the ship. can you happen to talk with the crew of the bulgaria before the boat sailed what were they thinking and they consider the possibility that something might happen did they tell you about it that's. when the arabella dr bull got it is one of the clowns stops. by the second birth of the bulgari it was tied to the first one they were leaving in eleven o'clock and we stayed till thirteen hundred hours when they were sailing off we had to maneuver in order to let the boat out and continue its cruise when we berth in the morning i went ashore and spotted the former captain of the boat in the current second mate of the bulgaria law to me a novel of in the center of the name jack he had worked with the bulgaria from the

very beginning back in the times when she was called ukraine he was the captain of the ukraine but old age prevented him from remaining in charge because it is an exhausting post the captain works very hard and it's too charming for an old man but he realised this and decided to step down to the next position because it is easier and better for the older man he did not want to leave the bulgarian. crane his mothership and i approached him and we chatted a bit we shook hands and i asked him mr nasr of i should charge of sending at your age and he told me with this sadness you know but he's got nothing to do at home his wife had passed away a few years ago and all that was left for him as a consolation was his job of the most memorable thing he told me one that stuck in my mind was when he said he didn't want to sail this year i don't know i just didn't feel like sailing this season and then this thing happened and seen from the way you're telling this story is no longer alive. that's right sadly he is gone his

body was recovered and identified it's such a pity he was a good man and a true captain such a pity is it true that the ship sank really fast yes you know i've spoken to some of the witnesses i mean survivors of course there are different versions but i attribute this to shock because they just couldn't get their thoughts together and were rather confused but they still say it took the ship something in like two or three maybe five minutes to sink and that really is a very short time and it is difficult to lower any boats or rafts in the meantime with a strong lurch like that or brace up somehow and that suggests that it is possible that the accident could claim so many lives because it all happened so fast but i saw her body parts talk about these two battles that as many claim possible carrier that they were just caused by or didn't stop at the same what was going on. i did a quick scan and i saw well we were approaching the side of the tragedy practically simultaneously with one other vessel a heavy duty tow boat with

a large part maybe it was a little bit ahead of us i don't know why they didn't stop in front of the site if they saw it happening and i can't say whether they saw it at all either but by the time they decided to hold and come to the rescue we were already there i don't know maybe it was because of the ship's nascar jurisdiction inertia maybe they had tried to stop earlier than that. anyway we were there and the ship's presence at that spot could be counterproductive and hazardous for the people who were in the water and below the surface. in that situation it was paramount that we avoided panic could assess the situation it was necessary to observe the scene of the accident and it was necessary to start rescuing people immediately but anyway i think we did a lot faster than the solution could have because at that moment there was just so little time. you have brought in contact with us as we had contact but we just exchanged a few phrases i merely told her captor that it was pointless for him to try to rescue anyone at that moment and i asked him to move ahead

a little so as not to impede our rescue operation about moments there was no use for his health that's all i can tell you maybe if it had been rendered earlier it could have come in handy but at that time there was no point in it and a sandwich i don't want to blame but at that moment it was already too late he should have grabbed her there with he would have to hold the ship lower a boat but we were already approaching the site in our ship i already had boats afloat and advancing towards the site and his boat luckily to we were practically beginning to collect the people from the water once again i'm not trying to accuse him of i don't know his vessels nasa and inertia characteristics maybe he needed much more time to stop his ship and the rebels i wouldn't rule out actually i was just assessing the situation realistically about moment and i think or that there was no use for his boat there at the time you see what was supposed to bayeux it is in that situation or not of course not i'm the captain of one ship he is a captain of another ship i couldn't give him any orders or instructions because he

didn't report to me and now some people in the press are already twisting the story saying i ordered him not to stop if you've been right person and you've been the captain of the other ship and you were told they should move on and you're how quick one hears what would you do. but i can't imagine myself a captain of that ship i don't want to offend anyone it's just that i don't. you know what i would do if i were in his shoes at the moment but if i had seen all that happening right in front of me or simply sold people overboard i swear i would have done the same as i did being on my ship thank you very much. first cream a little cold a clear cut. second explosives are used to blast to go deeper than the fear that.
