On the night of April 14th, 1912, the R.M.S Titanic, bound from Southampton to New York, on her Maiden Voyage, collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic. The iceberg ripped open the first 5 compartments and the Titanic sank in the early hours of April 15th, taking the lives of 1,523 men, women and children. ONLY 705 survived that night.

Here's how that ship met its doom.

    It's not a matter of if they hit head on, it's if they had reversed the engines. THATS what stopped the ship from turning faster, because the ruder never got a clean stroke of water to divert. And the ship was DOOMED!

    they would have survived. The impact would have been taken by the naturally stronger bow of the hull and damage would only have affected the first or, at most, first two compartments...wouldn't result in sinking.
    if only they weren't that stupid...

    if it hit it head on, it probably would have survived. but as it said in the video, they were tryin to make headlines with an extremely fast turn. if it hit it head on, the carpathia(the ship that saved the survivors) could have saved at least 3/4 of the people that had parished
