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.

Is this a ship that is bringing out smoke to make the clouds change coloring.

TwaughtBane, it says collision with a giant iceberg but as both are floating and moving at their own pace... it doesn't matter

TwaughtBane, do you people know the song about the Titanic. Have you ever heard it . it goes a little like this. "oh they built the ship Titanic to sail the ocean blue. They thought they had build a ship that the water wouldn't go thru. But the Lord's almighty hand knew the ship would never land. It was sad when that great ship went down. it was sad (oh it was sad.) it was that great ship went down. Husband and wives, little children lost their lives. It was sad when the great ship went down. lm older and the people in the neighborhood used to sing it.

Then the federal reserve was created shortly after in 1913 December, what a coincidence.

To Michelle Drew, "The sad part was this, Captain Smith was going to retire the 14th of August, 1912.
Owa
The captain insulted the Almighty God. ☹️

Now, the titanic is being talked again about in all social media accounts because of the implosion of the submersible Titan that was supposed to go thousands of meters to see the wrecked Titanic. What sad news it is. May the souls of the 5 passengers of the submersible rest at peace.
jenny
