Why didn't the passengers escape to the iceberg after the Titanic hit it?

Titanic is a huge ship. It is 260 meters long, 28 meters wide and weighs about 46,000 tons. At that time, it was an unprecedented Big Mac. Such a huge manned cruise ship has 899 crew members. If full, it can accommodate 3300 passengers. But why don't people climb after hitting an iceberg?

1, low temperature makes people move slowly.

The temperature of the sea water is so low that people will almost lose their mobility after soaking in the water for a few minutes, let alone in the undulating ocean. Anyone who swims in the sea knows that people's ability to move in the waves is extremely limited, not to mention that this huge ship is still standing nearby, the light is extremely weak, and the sea is constantly beating. After a few minutes, the man who fell into the water could hardly move.

This iceberg is steep and difficult to climb.

When the ship sinks, it will be washed onto the iceberg by huge impact, but it is not easy to climb up. After all, the iceberg is too slippery to catch, let alone climb. It doesn't make much sense to climb on the broken ice, because it will turn over with your body. If it is a big ice cube, it is almost impossible to climb it empty-handed, unless you are a professional climber and happen to have an ice pick with you.

Climbing to the iceberg will freeze to death.

Soak in the sea slowly and freeze to death on the iceberg in an instant. According to the temperature of the Pacific Ocean at that time, a person with good physical fitness will regret jumping into the sea at once. Because the sea water is too cold, his wet body will freeze into popsicles in ten minutes at low temperature, unless he immediately runs into the camp of the exploration base as warm as a stove!

After the Titanic hit the iceberg, the weather made it impossible for passengers to stay on the iceberg and wait for rescue.
