Captain Vote

Arsenal defender Rob Holding has revealed that manager Unai Emery asked the club’s players to vote for their choice of captain.

But something completely else is the topic of this article entirely.

Nobody knows exactly how Captain Edward Smith died on the night of the RMS Titanic sinking. According to certain historians and Robert Ballard’s book, The Discovery of the Titanic, Captain Smith was on the bridge at 2.13am, seven minutes before the Titanic disappeared beneath the waves, and went down with the ship.

Some sources state that Smith wandered off to the ship’s wheelhouse, while others say he was actively present in the radio room. Working near collapsible lifeboat B, Junior Marconi Officer Harold Bride reported seeing Smith dive into the sea from the open bridge minutes before the final plunge began.

One story states he carried a child to the overturned collapsible B after the sinking and swam off to freeze in the water, but according to the documentary Titanic: Death of a Dream, that story is generally considered romantic fiction.

Now over to you to settle this one conclusively, using the 5 star voting system, please vote on what you think happened to the Captain:

5 Stars: Went down with the ship on the bridge.
4 Stars: Jumped from the bridge into the sea.
3 Stars: Carried a child to the overturned collapsible lifeboat B after the sinking and swam off to freeze in the water (romantic fiction).
2 Stars: Joined Juventus.
1 Stars: Other, please describe.
