Water running down the staircase - Titanic

"The water was running down the staircase." How the water rose to E or upper deck and fell in a cascade to F or middle deck during the sinking of the Titanic. Joseph Thomas Wheat, an assistant second steward, described the way in which the water penetrated from E to F deck. He witnessed the water coming in, being forced up by terrific pressure through apertures in the deck, and flowing over the top of the bulkhead on to F deck
