so much to deal with of course they were panic stricken they were in deep shock what happened was 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 oil all over their skin because when the ship sank the fuel oil came up to the surface and spread everywhere and covered the people that made rescue even harder because the oil made the victims greasy and hard to get a holes to pull them on board seeing children in da condition that was particularly heartbreaking. and probably it was very hard on survivors pattern and there's a tragedy of it as far as i know although it may be wrong but i understand that only one family survived the wreck without losing any members most people did lose their close and loved ones and yes indeed it was very hard for both on the survivors and on us to we all feel very deeply for them. right i was just about ask you how your crew were coping with it and how are they doing now it must have

been hugely stressful was that another one at that moment we couldn't afford to think about stress we had to do all we could to prevent panic spreading and of course each of us felt a 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 to do that was there anything particular that helped. him 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 calm allowed us to pull people on board but once the rescue operation was over and we went to investigate the wreck site again the rough weather came back on 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 best possible way everyone acted very competently the speed of the crew significantly helped save people's lives they just wanted to get the job. don how many passengers were on

board at that time and how did they react when at the one the arabella was packed to full capacity at the time one hundred fifty passengers they acted like heroes i used this loud word deliberately they helped a lot they consoled the injured and there were doctors among the tourists on the arabella base is that the ship's medic is he rendered first aid way and they gave a lot of psychological support to survivors that was very important critical of. you know of the other people who survived the ship cracked all the journalists that when they found themselves in the water and the boat sank there is simply under that water that's the rock and then pumped up to the surface again one observer sat he thought it looked as though the sinking boat from the sort of funnel that put everything in what happens in reality the more that gets us out of course a sinking boat can pull objects floating on the surface under the water because of the huge water displacement that churns the water into wolf whirlpool that can suck people live with it but people who were afloat when the ship sank most of found

enormous strength to fight the whirlpool 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 had they been in the water for long before i picked them up but amounts about him i can't be precise about that but i think they were in the water for half an hour or so but also some of them a tried to get into life rafts others were still in the water it's just for a few theories of how this tragedy could have happened and one of them sas the boat attack on the facts you saw the bulgarian dock sometime before the sinking it's not a factor to you those that you see not all technical defects can be seen from outside experts say that the crews are listed to one side a book of what i don't know how dangerous this was for the passengers because i'm not familiar with ships of this type i never worked on that design group of young but 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. attention that it is

very difficult to tell if you don't know the particulars on your i with mrs francis both listened to the right even when it was dark so the listening was visible when i'm not sure it was really so because i wasn't there and i want to ask you this question is it true 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 of what we did you happen to talk with the crew of the bulgarian before the boat sailed what were they thinking they consider the possibility that something might happen did they tell you about it let them with us aboard when the arabella dr bull got in with it was one of the planned stops but we occupied the second birth while the bulgaria was tied at the first one they were leaving at eleven o'clock and we stayed till took 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 in spite of the former captain of the boat and the current second mate of the bulgarian to me at last

a little of in the center of the main deck he had worked with the bulgaria from the very beginning well 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 tiring for an old man but he realized this and decided to step down into the maze position because it is easier and better for the older man what he did not want to leave the bulgaria ukraine his mother ship and i approached him and we chatted a bit we shook hands and i asked him mr nozzle if you're tired of sailing at your age and he told me with this sadness you know that 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 with but 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 was i don't know he just didn't feel like sailing this season and then this thing happened i seem from the way you're attacking this. he's no longer alive that was

a hoax or that's right sadly he is gone and 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 progress 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 about it 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 brace up some have and that suggest that it is possible that the accident could claim so many lives because it all happened so fast but i suspect that is talk about this have asked that as many claim passed the bulgaria that they were just passed by the stop to the scene what was going on but heads in a package cabin and i saw well we were approaching the site of the tragedy

practically simultaneously with one other vessel a heavy duty towboat with a large barge maybe it was a little bit ahead of us i don't know why they didn't stop in front of the size if they saw it happening and i can't say whether they saw it all leadership but by the time they decided to hold and come to the rescue we were already there are down but i don't know maybe it was because of the ship's mass characteristics and inertia maybe they had tried to stop earlier than that anyway so at that moment 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 which would put us in that situation it was paramount that we avoided konica disaster situation but that 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 it all faster than this other ship could have because at that moment there was just so little time for both of us as both of you have read it contact with them just 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 at that moment there was no use for his help that's what 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 sign that you don't want to blame anyone but at that moment it was already too late he should have bracket there in their work 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 what could it do we were practically beginning to collect the people from the water once again i'm not trying to accuse him was i don't know his vessels mass and inertia characteristics maybe he needed much more time to stop his ship and lower blows but i wouldn't rule that out i was just assessing the situation realistically at that moment and i figured that there was no use for his boat there at the time you see one was supposed to be a otos in that situation or not but of course i'm a 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 it if it be a wise person or i had been the captain of the other ship and you were told it should move on and your help was of no here is what would you to. 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 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 saw people overboard i swear i would have done the same as i did being on my ship thank you very much. with the end of the boer war and going away of the soviet union many people thought that nuclear weapons disappeared. the risk is not zero that something might be
