In 1852, HMS Birkenhead struck hidden rocks off the coast of South Africa and began to sink within minutes.
With lifeboats too few and time running out, the soldiers aboard were ordered to stand firm — allowing women and children to escape while they faced almost certain death.
What followed became one of the most powerful acts of discipline and sacrifice in maritime history, forever shaping the rule known as “women and children first.”
In this episode of Lost At Sea, we recount the final moments of HMS Birkenhead and the bravery that echoed across generations.
