Best Answer

The HMHS Britannic sank in the Mediterranian Sea, and it was either hit by a missile or mined by a U-boat and fell onto it's side and sank on it's side. Only 33 people died. The 33 people died when they were chopped up from the propellers because, like the titanic, the Britannic stuck it's stern in the air, and bow first to plunge into the water.The reason the captain left the propellers on was so they could be closer to land. The HMHS Britannic was a hospital ship carrying sick and wounded soldiers away from the battlefield. The Britannic went down whole except for a little chunk of the bow.They still were intact, but are very hard to enter with submarines and people today.
