Should you jump off a sinking ship?
Jumping in
This may sound obvious, but it's really important. If you do need to jump into the water, don't dive head first. (Yep, that means you need to jump in feet first.) If you can't jump into a life boat directly, aim for deep and clear water, and be wary of obstacles, like propellers. Should you stay on a sinking ship? The last resort in any sinking scenario is to abandon ship.
