Firstly, the Titanic had a lot of passengers, in fact around 2400 of them, all situated in 3 classes, First class, Second class, and Third class. First of all, the Titanic transported a lot of rich and famous people, such as Harland and Wolff the ship designer and elderly Isidor Straus, the owner of Macy’s. Most of the rich passengers were seated in first class. First class held a restaurant, heated swimming pool, gymnasium, smoking room, and even a barbershop, all for 30- 870 pounds, nowadays $70,000. As mentioned before, there are two other classes, one of them being second class. Second class would be what we could call middle class these days, only costing around 13 to 79 pounds equivalent to around $1800 today. The second class passengers only had a library, a smoking room, and the dining hall to spend their extra time. Moving on, we have the third class passengers, the lowest class on the ship, only costing 7 - 40 pounds, about $700 nowadays for adults and about $300 for children. In addition, The third class passengers were very diverse with a lot being British, Irish, and Scandinavian.

Everyone believed the Titanic would never sink, which as you can see is false, although it is not possible to see what exactly happened we can get a vague idea of how it sank. Firstly, 4 days after leaving the harbor on April 14th, reports of scattered icebergs had been sent to the RMS Titanic. Ignoring the warning, the ship continued at a high speed of 22 -22.5 knots per hour. Only to be stopped at 11:30, when a lookout rang the warning bell having spotted an iceberg dead ahead. The ship, having sailed at a continuous high speed, tried to reverse immediately, having caused the ship to be spun around and grazing the Iceberg instead of hitting it head on. Nevertheless, the little scrape everyone thought was actually a 300 foot long scrape. When the captain had finally realized the damage that had been done, 5 compartments had already begun to fill with water. The ship was then estimated to only last for another half an hour or slightly more. The massive rush of unorganized herds of people a little over an hour later had begun to evacuate. The woman and children went first and men would go next when there were no women or children nearby. In addition, almost all the lifeboats were being under filled with some holding 28 people while they could’ve held 65. A fatal mistake that could have saved hundreds of lives.

The Titanic was strong. Or was it? Many believe that the Titanic had many fatal flaws that caused the ship to sink. Nonetheless, these flaws never managed to sink the people who survived the Titanic. First and foremost, we have flaws. A lot of people say there were many flaws on the Titanic. As mentioned before, ignoring the Iceberg warning was already a very big flaw, but even then could the Titanic have survived ignoring the warning? Well, experts say that, yes, the Titanic could have survived if not going at a dangerously fast speed. Yes, the Titanic was going at a very fast speed of 22.5 knots per hour, only sparing .5 until max. Many people assume this was because the captain (Edward Smith) wanted to beat the record ship Olympic. Moving on, we have ship design flaws. There were two main building mistakes that could’ve helped more people to survive. One of them being the ship’s building materials. Believe it or not, The ship designers wanted to cut costs. This was found out by material scientists who later on found out that the rivets that held the ship’s hull were not the best quality. Additionally, It doesn’t even help that Titanic only had enough lifeboats to carry a total of 1178 people, only a third of the 3300 people onboard. Nonetheless, many people managed to survive the Titanic disaster such as the White Star’s managing director ( J. Bruce Ismay) getting on one of the last lifeboats just in the nick of time. Many people hated him after he survived, some blaming that it’s his fault that the Titanic sank. Madeleine Astor, wife of the richest person on board also survived the Titanic, later giving birth to a child she was pregnant with while on the Titanic.
