Ever wonder what it would be like on a sinking ship?

So its late at night, and your sleeping soundly in your bunk, when the entire ship is shaken violently, and a tremendous, deafing explosion that throws you out of your bunk and you hit your head on the bunk rack on the way to the floor. Perhaps a little dazed, or disoriented, with horror, you realize that your ship has been torpedo'ed, and you make your way topside. As you do so, you feel the ship start to list. When you finally make it topside, your greeted with the approaching water as the ship starts to list over.

Not seeing any lifeboats readily available , you run up to the bridge ladder to get a better assesment of the situation, and hopefully spot a lifeboat before the ship goes under.

Your initial view from the bridge.

The list is getting worse!

Looking aft, you see your shipmates have already unlimbered the lifeboats and are paddeling away, and your still on board!

With a eery groan, you feel the list of the ship increasing, and you hear the hissing sound of air escaping from below decks.

She's going down with a violently alarming speed!

Your last view of the world as your sucked down with the ship.
