I read a witness testimony on the Titanic Inquiry project and it caught my attention. It is the following one:
"Senator BOURNE.
Hence, you assumed that she broke in two. The bow lights were extinguished, were they?
Mr. BRIGHT.
You could not see anything of them after that.
Senator BOURNE.
Did you see any lights on the stern after she settled?
"Mr. BRIGHT.
Yes, sir; until she finally disappeared underneath the water.
Senator BOURNE.
Until the stern disappeared, after the break?"
The extract is obviously implying that the lights went off in the bow at first and they disappeared from the stern only after the break up. Is this possible?
