Witness the impossible true survival story of Titanic Stoker Frederick Barrett. Working in the boiler rooms of the maiden voyage. Barrett's fight for survival is one of the most devastating accounts of Titanic's last few hours.

Boiler Room Six gives a voice to the sacrifice of the working men below deck who kept the ship afloat for as long as possible, saving hundreds of lives, whilst knowingly giving up on their own.
