What caused the Titanic to sink?
Correct answer: A collision with a massive iceberg

happygamestop444, it is now known that a fire burning for days inside coal stores is what weakened the hull first, making it vulnerable to damage from icebergs

Michelle Drew, you are oversimplifying things. You need to look at the decisions made regarding the ship's design, the lack of life boats, the myth that it was unsinkable and the failure of the nearest ship to respond. Things are rarely as simple as we like to make them.

Having just answered a question on syntax recently,I feel it's appropriate to point out that it was the ship which hit the iceberg, not vice versa.

Yes, the ship that helped in the rescue did take survivors to New York. My grandmother was on it with her mother & sister,& they shared their state room with Mrs. Astor. She was so thankful that she later invited then to her N.Y. mansion. We learned about this when my grandmother was 82 years of age!!!

Such sorrow that never should of happened in the first place if the Captain only listened to what he was told by others.

A recent program on tv said that if they had hit the iceberg head-on with the bow, they might have stayed afloat longer, and more people might have survived. It's like many blunders in a short period of panic doomed the ship & its passengers. I've heard that engineers built the Titanic, but an amateur built the Ark.

Maybe if upon Send Off and Bottle christening, the man had not said "even GOD can't sink this vessel", there may have been Mercy given by the Almighty GOD. That statement was a slap in the face to the Creator of man. GOD uses threes (3) in many instances- err a 3hour sink time falls into place. My opinion only. I do know that GOD is Real, and Will Not Be Mocked. Byl Butler

Actually the Titanic sank because the "watertight compartments" had no ceilings and allowed the water to pass further into the ship. Also ego allowed this ship to sail without insufficient lifeboats, sealing many passengers' fates.

So sorry for this mass catastrophe.

Player #976472, the fire weakened the steel and compromised the bulkhead, contributing to the jngress of h2o and the egress of o2. But the iceberg made the hole. So... Bigass iceberg would STILL be the correct answer.

a person called Levi in my class always says at library time "can we research Titanic?" and we watched a video that answered that so I know.

Titanic was an inside job! End the federal reserve system!

It is never wise to boast. For tomorrow has not arrived and as humans we are not in control no matter how magnificent a thing we’ve created. It can fail.

GreyishOccupation2, you sure

I feel bad for the people who had to dig Cole and put it into the engine

Someone once said that the Titanic is unsinkable & not even God can sink this ship, but clearly they had little to no humility.

Titanic was sunk to kill some wealthy people so they could install the Federal Reserve

Peacockblue1221, Also, many mistakes by the captain!

Someone said: "Not even God could sink it" but a mere creation of God did it...
Chloe
I think there were only 1 or 2 survivors but they have passed away obviously now.

I remember there was a kid named Aaron in my second grade class. He was a VERY angry kid but he had an obsession with the titanic. He was expelled in the third grade and this comment was made to honor Aaron and his obsession with the Titanic. 🚢
