Shipbuilders never claim that a ship is unsinkable, but the sinking of the Titanic in the Northern Sea should never have happened. It was well designed and carefully maintained. It carried the proper number of lifeboats. It was thoroughly inspected a day before its fatal voyage. Yet hours later, the Titanic broke up and sank after colliding with an iceberg in the cold and still night. It went down so quickly that most of those on board, caught in their dark, survived. The rest died of hypothermia before the rescuers could pick them from the sea. The final death toll was almost 1500.
