What Caused The Titanic Who's To Blame

People watched as the grand ship split in half after hitting an iceberg. The bow split from the stern and spiraled down to the bottom of the Atlantic, not to be found for another 73 years by Robert Ballard.

It couldn’t have been the Captain’s fault because he didn’t even learn about this until after the iceberg hit. Unfortunately, these workers had multiple chances to change this event, but they let them blow right pass them. The Titanic would only have needed a couple more minutes to pass that iceberg, the workers had hours… If the crew workers just listened to the other ships warnings, they could have saved over 1,500 lives from just sinking down like the
