"Listen Schettino, perhaps you have saved yourself from the sea, but I will make you look very bad. I will make you pay for this. Dammit, go back on board!" one coastguard says.
Speaking by radio from a lifeboat, Schettino pleads: "Do you realize that it is dark and we can't see anything?"
The coastguard shouts back: "So, what do you want to do, to go home, Schettino?! It's dark and you want to go home? Go to the bow of the ship where the ladder is and tell me what needs to be done, how many people there are, and what they need! Now!"
The alarm was raised not by an SOS from the ship but mobile phone calls from passengers on board to Italian police on the mainland.
