The questioning of the Californian's crew and the Duff Gordons were seen as highlights of the inquiry. The failure of Californian to go to the rescue of the sinking Titanic, which had been disclosed by the American inquiry, was already controversial and became even more so with the testimony of Captain Lord and his officers.
The U.S. and British Inquiry investigates the crash of the Titanic and decides that no one is to blame for the sinking of the Titanic and that it was purely and accident.
Lord's claims and explanations were contradicted by his officers and he was portrayed by them as an intimidating and somewhat tyrannical figure.
Another article coming shortly...
Although Lord appeared only as a witness and was not accused of wrongdoing, as one historian of the Titanic disaster has put it, "the image created in the mind of the public ever since has been of the Californian's officers standing idly on the bridge, so thoroughly intimidated by their captain that they would rather watch another ship sink than run the risk of facing his wrath."

That’s a beautiful thing to watch, Sanchez would’ve observed the women and children first protocol like a gentleman. His body, if recovered probably could’ve been quite easily identified due to being a famous footballer (although they might not have known about him then?), have any other famous footballers made Titanic tributes or anything similar today?

Sanchez uploaded the rendition originally in Feb 2016
https://www.instagram.com/reel/BBYUVR9i6cF/
Which he shows he is always thinking about RMS Titanic.
Not only has he behaved dutifully and without apparent concern for his safety, Sanchez also offers hope that not all modern footballers are venial, diving, irreligious and timorous. This is why Sanchez could be viewed to be emerging as a 21st century Titanic idol.
