"We were washed away and passed by the propellers." "We were lucky to get there." "But I saw ..." "I saw a boat being cut." "Then I saw arms and legs there." "They had no chance, and if they had turned off the engine ... those people would not have been cut by propellers." "Does the Britannic was torpedoed or hit a mine?" "What do you think?" "For me it was torpedoed." "I say it was torpedoed, because as I said before ... the fifth trip, I saw the submarine." "It was a torpedo, but two." "It was not a mine." "Mrs. Mitchell, what do you think?" "The ship was torpedoed or hit a mine?" "It was torpedoed, no doubt." "Certainly torpedoed." "Thank you." " Now do you ..." " No doubt torpedoed."

"An examiner sonar, covering a distance of four meters ..." "It is lowered to increase the vertical probe by Echo Calypso ... and the search begins." "Time passes and, with the assistance of Dr. Harold Edgerton ... famous electronics inventor ... the sonar signals show an extensive profile of the seabed."

"The handles and the wheel itself has rotted since then." "With a gesture of triumph ... one of the divers holds one of his rescues." "The remains of the sextant corroded the ship." "Next to the bridge, according to the luxury of his post ..." "Bartlett was the captain during his brief command." "Present at the birth and death of the ship ... he, perhaps, reflected on the bad luck at launch." "Born in war, the greatest luxury ships from England ..." "He gave himself overboard without ceremony or funeral." "In the words of a disgruntled worker:" ""They built it and ran with it."" "Now the time talks." "Every fall, after exactly 15 minutes ... divers exchange signals and begin the long and laborious back." "Waiting in the middle of his ascent ... the decompression chamber is a sanctuary from the cold." "Aided sent Calypso divers ... divers take their troublesome pipes ... and placed in the side of the metal tube to the shelves." "Finally, they take the pieces to the mouth of the hoses ... slide opening ... and enter the relative comfort of the decompression chamber." "When the Calypso ensures that divers are safe ... one of the divers make a final check of equipment ... and date carries." "Swiftly, divers start the final climb." "Hoisted the crowded deck ... decompression camera is then lowered to the basement ... for the soucoupe can get back to the platform above it." "Here, periodically breathing oxygen ... while Dr. Cabarou, gradually alters the pressure capsule ... divers follow arrested the next 2 hours and 45 minutes." "With anxiety, the crew analyzes the objects ... brought in the basket from the back." "The metal circle wheel ... you can still read the manufacturer's name." "That's it." "That's it." "It is believed that the sextant ship ..." "It might be restored to normal ... enjoyed spending time submerged in clean water and is cleaned carefully." "Finally comes to an end the wait of the divers in the capsule ... and the three are released from confinement." "As always, Dr. Cabarou ask them how they feel." "As always, all of them give positive responses." "But Falco been there in soucoupe." "He knows that there were times when it felt lost." " There." " You are there." "The picture was not good." "Here, all ..." "Here, all patients." "And here, the nurses and the matron." "You can see here ... the boats, hanging." "The boat just ahead of me and one behind ..." "They were pulled by the propellers." "They were in pieces." "If one of those boats survived ..." "It was because jumped out and perhaps swam back." "The boat was worth two million pounds ... and there were very high cliffs where they beat us." "Abicar wanted the boat ... where there was sand on the other side of the island." "As soon as we touch the water ... he was, and the propellers rose ..." " And revolved?" " Yup." "And ago, he formed a whirlwind." "They were pulling all the boats towards the swirl." "And it went completely sank even without more." "As a dip, as a good swim." "And everyone was very nervous." "When he turned, of course I thought ..." ""Oh, my trunks will be under the beds of others." "And all the oranges and lemons ..." "I bought in Naples will fall on the ground." "Where is my watch? "" "You know, stuff like that." "We saw many concerts." "I lost all my songs, the best." "Now, when I hear someone singing, I say:" ""I had this." "It is in the sea."" "I do not know what we thought were a lot of things." "And the debris floating around us." "Suddenly, we saw notices saying ..." ""Only doctors ',' nurses Only," "Only patients."" " Floating?" " Floating in the water." "Because the matron was very old-fashioned." "When we wanted to walk, walk even at night ... she put the rope to prevent that we should walk." "A wag next to me saw these warnings ... and said, "I'm surprised the matron had not made a notice saying ... doctors and women should not sink into the same side of the ship. "" "When I returned to Athens in the evening, and went to sleep ..." "I was with my French underwear ... with blue ribbons sewn." "And one of the tapes was lost." "The other nurses involved me a lot." "They said: "He gave her blue ribbon to sailor for this?" "In exchange for this here? "" " You gave?" " No." "I'm a big girl." "When received the telegram from New York ... inviting her to come to Athens and board the Calypso ... you were very quick ... the decision to come." "I was very lucky in life." "I met several countries ... and never thought would return to Britannic again." "It is wonderful." "Wonderful." "Now I'm 10 years younger than it was last Wednesday." "Did you see?" "With the passage of time and the progress of the search ..." "Cousteau comes time to analyze the wreckage." "As usual, in a quest ..." "Cousteau takes his notes of support and plan the dive ... based on the model of the Britannic aboard the Calypso." "With the intention of exploring the front of the ship ... he is reminded that she is quite inclined." "To descend the grand staircase, for example ... it will not progress vertically, but horizontally." "With the precision that only brings calm, achieved with a lot of practice ..." "We round up the latest precautions to fall on the deck." "With your dive buddies, Patrick DellaMont ... and senior team member, Albert Falco ..." "Cousteau reviews the commandments of underwater safety." "Although play and disguise chance ... they know they will be working in depth ... where survival depends on them to follow the rules." "Based on the duration of the dive ... and greater depth reached ..." "Dr. Cabarou calculate the standard decompression ... and their oxygen intake intervals." "A final check, they hit the clocks ... to know the precise dive time limit." "Cousteau submerge... followed by Falco and DellaMont ... because the days are passing." "As always, the dive is a race against time ... a fall to the sea floor that resembles a dream." "Step through the decompression chamber ... without which none of us would return safely." "Fast, eu keep out of nylon or baixo ... and then step through the iron weight of the decompression chamber ... drop like a stone in the sky." "Almost immediately, cross the boundaries of darkness." "So to 55 m, with Falco and DellaMont overtaking me ... find the cold ... the icy feeling that invades our clothes and spirits." "Finally beginning to realize the colossal hull." "My depth gauge indicates 98 m." "We took six minutes to get here." "In nine, we are required to start the comeback." "Swim now for a world whose reference points have changed." "The walls of the first class lounge are above and below me." "The floor just ahead." "I advance through a maze of metal bars ... doing the horizontal course." "I feel like I could be fish such as tuna, by a giant network." "Suddenly, I realize that these bars are the remains of the grand staircase." "But a sense of disorientation less definable ..." "I also haunts." "The career of the Britannic was thoughtless." "Planned for beautiful transatlantic voyages ... he spent his brief life serving the war." "Here, in this room where orchestras should play ... now only remains dirt, amid the gloomy melancholy." "The story made a mistake." "I reach the grand opening ... cracked the hull by the explosion." "While Falco film and DellaMont focuses our powerful light ... seek clues that tell us more about the tragedy of Britannic." "So I see myself surrounded by steel plates and shields ... as well as power lines destroyed and rotted supports." "I realize that I was deep inside the ship." "And then the darkness." "I hold myself in a barrel." "My companions resurface and find me." "What it seemed like an eternity to me were a few seconds." "I remember the sudden fear." "Da frase Paul Valéry:" ""A man alone is in bad company."" "Quickly, we continued the search." "When we got to the bottom ... the depth is 113 m." "Sometimes one of us takes a bit of wreckage ... and places it in soucoupe basket for analysis on the surface." "Not far from the huge crack ... maybe 30 meters from the bow ... find a lump of coal ... aparentemente da carvoeira." "Can be little." "My watch says we got to the end of the time allowed." "I signaled to my companions." "We went out there and started up." "Behind us in the dark ... let the broken hull of a technological triumph." "A sad reminder that we too are vulnerable." "The Britannic was once considered the greatest example of human creativity ... you could imagine." "It lasted less than one year." "Shortly after halfway, on the way up ... other divers await us in the capsule." "They help us take the air tubes and place them next to ... as we enter the hot decompression chamber." "Back in the only world we live in safety ... the next 2 hours and 45 minutes ... the diver makes a final check of all ... and begins the final ascent." "As workers at the end of a job ... divertirmos we find modes." "The intercom, we ... some requests for appetizers and wine." "For our boredom, Dr. Cabarou insists that it is a practical impossibility." "Instead, it prescribes oxygen, according to the schemes ... to the depths reached." "It's okay for us, we agree." "But as Falco says ... caviar would have been tastier." "It's ok." "Obeying the inflexible schemes ... we are finally released by Dr. Cabarou, and we went out of our little world." "Suddenly, the deck of the Calypso looks huge." "With the discovery of coal ... most of the Britannic mystery seems clear." "It never was discovered proof even ... that the Britannic was anything other than claiming to be ... a hospital ship." "Convinced that the crack in the hull is higher ... than one that would be caused by a mine or torpedo ..." "Cousteau believes the first explosion lit ... coal dust, very volatile in coal ... and caused a more violent explosion, almost simultaneous ... that spread charcoal out of the hull." "I wanted to show you ... a piece of coal ... we brought the Britannic." "Lumps of coal?" "Coal with that ..." "It was used in the boilers." "It was in Naples, I think." " Maybe." " Maybe." "Maybe." "It's beautiful." "Is that enough?" " Of course." " It's ok." " Can I have some?" " Of course." " I'll give a little to my children." " Of course." "So that's coal Britannic." "It is wonderful." "Thanks." "It is almost certain that the Britannic hit a mine." "Found later, the logbook German submarine 73 ... reported to have left a hospital ship intact ... but the submarine had placed mines in Kéa channel." "His work was over." "But for the Calypso, remains a mission." "Mrs. Mitchell has a chance ... rarely granted to mortals." "The chance to turn back time and take another look at the boat." "This torpedo is comfortable, right?" "Almost a lifetime later ... the young nurse the cab 15 back to the ship ... where she lost a watch ... some old songs ... and a bag of oranges." "Coral?" "It is more beautiful than ..." "A man gave me this opportunity!" "That's good!" "We saw the ship?" "E grandes lagos..." " Lobsters." " Lobsters." "My breath failed most of the time." "IT IS?" "Okay, let's help her out." "Soon." "Wait." "That's it." "Very good." "I never had an experience like this." "I have no words to thank." "I never dreamed to go somewhere like that." "And with my friends helicopter." "But do not forget, everyone is invited to Edinburgh." " It's ok." " And be quick." "Be quick." "Do not take too long." "I will not last forever." " It's ok." " I think it will." "It is in good shape." "He kept the way for a long time." " I try." " Right." "Again, the guest of Calypso packed up." "Cabuladora as a student, Sheila Mitchell Macbeth prepares ... to leave the dark waters of Homer and youth ... and back to endless adventure of everyday life."
