Why did Titanic hit the Iceberg


After doing some brainstorming and browsing some informations on the internet. Finally I came out with some opinions on "Why did the Titanic hit the iceberg?".

#1. The Carelessness of the Titanic's Captain


-I did browse on the internet about the fact about titanic.some people said that the captain ordered his crew to make the ship at its full speed. I think its a pretty harsh decision to be made.maybe the captain wanted to arrive at the destination faster. Or maybe he had some personal issues that needed him to get there early. Who knows?

full speed?dude,not at that location.you're making a big mistake.

-I think that the captain was over-confident on that ship. He thought that nothing can sink the Titanic.And maybe he thought that was just a small iceberg. 





#2.It was already too late to avoid the iceberg


-Its happened a long time ago.they don't have proper equipment or technology to enable the ship to survive in a critical situation.

look at this.its too old
-Oh yeah, like anybody else would do to save themselves they tried to turn the ship to the left. But still, it was not enough to avoid from hitting the iceberg.

  2. The Captain was not watching for icebergs, that was the job of the lookouts in the crow's nest. The Captain was probably in bed. And the lookouts didn't have binoculars. The binoculars were locked in a cabinet and someone forgot to give them the key.

  3. the titanic was hardley speeding and the reason they dident slow down was because the sea was flat and calm and they thought they would see the iceberg
    the captain was a very experience man and was trusted in the white star
