The sinking of the British luxury liner Titanic on its maiden voyage in April 1912 was one of the world's worst maritime disasters. In an interview with the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in 1936, Commander Charles H. Lightoller, second officer of the Titanic, recalls what he saw as the ship sank beneath the icy waters of the North Atlantic. Lightoller was the most senior ship’s officer to survive the disaster.
