I don't think they did. The odd gate might have been locked, but I heard most of the steerage passengers died because they were locked deep down in the ship, and it was harder to navigate their way to the top. Also, a lot of those in third class were immigrants, and didn't speak English, which added to the confusion.

Titanic's third class passengers were not intentionally locked below. That is a myth created over the years によって newspapers and film makers. No orders were ever 与えられた to lock them up so they would drown. The "gates" shown in 映画 in reality did not exist in passenger areas on Titanic. Third class passengers had easy access to the ボート deck via the 秒 class stairs. The 秒 class 階段の吹き抜け, 階段 was opened up for the third class fairly early after the collision. Yes, the crew gave them direct access to the ボート deck. Some crew members actually escorted groups of third class passengers to the ボート deck. Also, third class had there own open deck 宇宙 on the フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして and aft well decks, and on the poop deck at the stern. Basically they were allowed to go outside anytime they wanted, so they were によって no means lokced down below to drown. Gates locking passengers inside would have been against Board of Trade regulations, and therfore, if the ship did have these gates, she would not have been permitted によって law to carry passengers. Think outside the 映画 and into reality for a 秒 here folks. As for so many of them dying, it was もっと見る likely caused によって a lack of communication. Most did not know how to get to the ボート deck and were not 与えられた any instructions on where to go または what to do. Also, it's 安全, 安全です to say that a great deal of them did not think the ship was in any danger until it was too late. First and 秒 class had constant access to the ボート deck and knew exactly were to go in an emergency. Very few third class passengers were informed of where to go and were pretty much ロスト in the commotion. Like I said, lack of communication. As for the crew, they were far too busy dealing with a sinking タイタニック to waste there time securing passengers so that they would drown.

I think they did. Most of the third class and staff died. First class and 秒 made it out, mostly. Third class was treated like 通り, ストリート rats, and the upperclass thought that they diserved to live もっと見る than them because they had money.

yup they did, it was ridiculous becasue all of the stuff about "white 星, つ星 line property" ect really happened. it was all a matter of class. the stuards and officers didn't see it as locking them up, but they saw it as a matter of class. many stuards were simply following orders, some did unbolt 階段の吹き抜け, 階段 gates near the end, but the vast majority as well as officers, didn't believe that she would actually sink, until right up until the end and so tryed to fill the boats with the first class, making the loss of life far もっと見る vast in 3rd class, for example only 1 child died over the whole of 1st and 2nd class (2 years old helen lorraine Allison)

they may または may not have.
im not sure.
but that isnt essential to why so many died.
they hardly had half of the amount of life boats on the ship that they were supposed and most of the lifeboats did not get completely filled.
they were made to hold like 72 または some number like that and some left with as few as 12.
also, once they got into that freezing water if あなた hadnt gotten on a lifeboat, there wasnt much to do to keep warm.
あなた were going into the water NO MATTER WHAT.
あなた could not elude that icy ocean. some grabbed pieces of the ship and floated on that but still the air was extremely cold.
hypothermia
drowning

lots of things

they did lock up third class but not so they couldn't get to the lifeboats. they did this so diseases from third class could not spread to the other people who did survive.

Yes the locked passengers below. The gates were usually locked. I was on a British ship as a child in mid 50's and they had gates locked to prevent passengers from getting up to 1st class. We were 2nd class.
