The Japanese who survived the Titanic crash was called a coward in his country for not dying with the other passengers.
The only Japanese passenger that survived the Titanic lost his job after the incident because he was known as a coward in Japan for not dying with the other passengers. Masabumi Hosono (15th October 1870 – 14th March 1939) was no ordinary man; he was the only Japanese, who travelled on RMS Titanic, the world famous ship. Not only that, he turned out to be one of those passengers, who survived the disastrous fall of the ship. When he returned on the land, he was surrounded by the government as well as his people, who objected his decision of saving himself, instead of staying with the ship and going down with the hundreds of others, who lost their lives.
