The Last Titanic Supper
The Last Titanic Supper
This eerie menu from the Titanic outlines the last meal of the passengers on board the Titanic on the night it sank. It was shortly after this deliciously hearty dinner when the Titanic sank, taking down with it the frightened passengers with their last meal of roast beef, boiled potatoes, rice, plum pudding and stewed figs. Unfortunately, most of the passengers drowned or froze to death in the icy waters.

Thankfully, these maneuvers would only ever be precautions, and hopefully they will remain so for all eternity.
