real story
But why does this happen? When looking for an answer, it should be noted that the incident of September 27, 1994 in which 852 people were drowned in the sea.
That morning, at seven o'clock in the morning, the ship carrying MS Estonia 989 passengers left from the Talin harbor. He had to cross the Baltic Sea to Stockholm. But the ship never reached there
After six hours of leaving the harbor, the ship got stuck in a storm, the door in front of it broke and the water swiftly penetrated inside.
Within hours, the ship sank and with it, the crew of 852 passengers and crew was drowned.
Why 852 people immersed?
The speed of the tragedy, the sea storm, the announcement of the emergency after half an hour after the shipwreck and the time of reaching the affected people of the rescue team ... even after all these things, the relief specialists were stunned by the death of so many more people. It seems that many people simply drown so that they did not try to escape.
An official report said, "It seems that because of fear, many people lose their ability to think or act urgently.
Many people were so scared that they could not be extorted. Many were so shocked that when other travelers tried to show them the way they could not move, they could not take any action, even when they were screaming. "
