 The causes of RMS Titanic to sink have
1
been subject of much study and debate.

But, the instigating factor was collision of

2 Titanic with ice berg.
On the night of April 14th, Titanic
3 received warning reports from neighboring
ship.
There was no operational or safety reason
4 to slow down or alter course
 Because the officers on board did not pay
5
heed to the warning issued.

It plowed ahead through the waters with

6 great speed instead of changing its course.

The ship finally collided the ice berg and

7 the massive rip was torn parallel across the
ship’s bulk.

An SOS was sent out to the neighboring

8 ship and CARPATHIA picked up the
distress call.
 Titanic started sinking at 11.45pm and by 2.45am
Titanic was completely submerged in ice cold waters of Atlantic.

The tragic sinking of the RMS Titanic and history of both those who
survived and those who lost their lives will forever be remembered
with nostalgia and sadness.
