When Titanic actually hit the iceberg, it doesn't seem as if anyone really panicked. The extent of the damage was not immediately known, many people were asleep, and the prevailing confidence in the unsinkable nature of the ship meant that the gravity of the situation was not realized until nearer the end for the passengers and even for some of the crew. Also, there was seen to be a ship in the area - the identity of which has been long disputed - and many believed it would come to their aid. There was some panic as the situation became obviously hopeless at the end and there were no lifeboats left. Also, as the later lifeboats were loaded, there were attempts by some men to push in ahead of the women and children or to jump in as the boats were lowered past other decks. One of the officers found it necessary to fire shots to deter such behavior. The great majority of those left behind seemed to have met their end with remarkable resignation and calm considering the Horror of the situation.
