A Shipwreck

Shipwrecks have become quite common nowadays. Ships and boats sink after hitting rocks or running into bad weather, or due to some technical problems. Sometimes crew members and passengers manage to swim ashore and get help. A lifeboat team is immediately sent out to rescue the rest. The survivors  of the shipwreck are taken to hospital where they recover from the accident. Air and sea rescue teams are sent out to search for the missing crew  members and passengers.
Many people are scared of going on cruise trips because they think that cruise ships are not safe enough and can sink if something goes wrong. Everyone has heard of the Titanic that sank in the North Atlantic ocean after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage, so people are afraid that there won't be enough lifeboats for everyone in case of emergency. In such situations people start panicking, lose control of their emotions and can't think clearly. To my mind, human error is a cause or contributing factor in disasters and accidents. That's why we should always remember about safety, be careful and stay calm in order to avoid accidents.
