The Titanic didn’t sink just because it hit an iceberg—fatal design choices set the stage for disaster long before the ship ever left port. Builders used low-quality steel that shattered in cold water, and the watertight compartments didn’t actually go all the way up, allowing flooding to spill over like water in an ice tray. The ship carried far too few lifeboats because designers wanted the decks to look “cleaner,” and the crew ignored multiple ice warnings while pushing the ship at high speed for prestige. Even the rivets holding the hull together popped under pressure, turning a collision into a catastrophic tear.
