I don't think it is watertight when water can flow into more  over the top. - Clara Kilian]]> 2018-02-19 15:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/post34/3v1stx49qi7w/wish/232955989 https://padlet.com/post34/3v1stx49qi7w/wish/232956094 What I found interesting is that at first people were reluctant to load the lifeboats. -Jazmyn]]> 2018-02-19 15:30:19 UTC https://padlet.com/post34/3v1stx49qi7w/wish/232956094 https://padlet.com/post34/3v1stx49qi7w/wish/232958217 I can't believe how large and especially how high the Titanic was!

This is so because the bow would have crumpled inwards or "stove in". If that had happened there would be little or no flooding because of the steel compacting together. Also many times before ships had made it to port with busted up bows.
