The History of the Titanic Sinking
It was April of 1912 when the RMS Titanic, a luxury steamboat, left England for its final destination: New York. It was the ship’s maiden voyage with over 3,000 passengers and crew aboard.
Why & Where did the Titanic Sink?
The Titanic was called “unsinkable”. However, on April 15, 1912, the ship sideswiped a concealed iceberg. The damages were so extreme that the “unsinkable” ship sunk. Where did the Titanic sink? Unfortunately, into the cold waters just off of Newfoundland in the North Atlantic ocean. With not enough lifeboats for all of the passengers and crew, over 1,500 people died.
