    Naval historian here. In days past, this Captain would have been executed for this, civilian or military. He absolutely changed into a suit to avoid assisting other passengers, which is one of the most selfish unconscionable thing ive ever heard of. There are modern day cruise ships where cabin boys assist passengers in an emergency, it is inexcusable for the Captain to not do anything for the passengers..not to mention it was HIS mistake. Honestly kinda surprised none of the dead passengers families had him killed

      Right? Always think for yourself, especially in such situations, they don't want to cause panic, but that doesn't mean they have your best interest at heart, as in this case. Don't do drastic crazy shit though, but don't just listen like a sheep if your instinct tells you something's wrong, like a "blackout" causing a ship to tilt. I would have been standing with a life vest next to a life boat if they told me to go back to the cabins

    On the principle of reaching equilibrium, Titanic was rated to survive flooding for the first 4 compartments, not 2. 6 compartments were breached, although the 6th compartment (Boiler Room 5) breach was small enough for the pumps to keep under control. The 5th compartment ahead (Boiler Room 6) was far too heavily breached meaning her doom.

      As an italian, i can say that "incompetence and corruption" is what sums up every facet of italian history from its foundation in the 19th century to today. We have lost wars because high-ranking people put their relatives as generals instead of people who know what a war is. An example is what happened in my comune (municipality in italian) a few years ago. They received 15.000€~ to decorate the town for christmas. All they did was build a christmas tree made of rusted scaffolding covered by a green protective net with a star on top of it, something that was rumored to cost less than 400€. Where did the remaining 14.600€ go? In the hands of the camorra (neapolitan mafia). This is also one of the reasons why we don't want to pay taxes in southern italy. Schettino probably had a relative working inside Costa Crociere who let him get the job, of course without having the need to do tests and do what is needed to get to the position of captain.

      There is a difference tho.

Charater actions need to be excused by motivations, personality and so on.
      Seccondly , the author is GOD as far as the book is concerned so he cant explain things by chance since there is no chance when you are GOD .
      Thirdly realism is not necesarily good . Plausibility is what is good .
