The Titanic Survival Quiz is a free online quiz with 50 questions about the disaster that tests whether you'd make the right choices to survive. Of the 2,224 people aboard the RMS Titanic, only 710 survived — a survival rate of just 32%.
Each round presents 10 randomized questions from a pool of 50, with four multiple-choice options and instant feedback after every answer. Your final score comes with a performance tier and shareable results.
You'll explore survival statistics by class and gender, lifeboat capacity and launch details, the minute-by-minute sinking timeline, hypothermia and water temperature facts, ship design flaws, the stories of notable passengers and crew, enduring myths versus historical facts, and the modern discovery of the wreck.
Of the approximately 2,224 passengers and crew aboard the RMS Titanic, only about 710 survived — roughly 32%. The majority of deaths were caused by hypothermia in the freezing North Atlantic water rather than drowning.
First-class passengers had the highest survival rate at about 62%, compared to 41% for second class and only 25% for third class. First-class women had a 97% survival rate, while third-class men survived at a rate of just 16%.
The water temperature was approximately 28°F (-2°C) when the Titanic sank. At that temperature, most people would succumb to hypothermia within 15 to 45 minutes, which is why so few of those who ended up in the water survived.
