1 When the Titanic struck the iceberg, six of its 16 watertight compartments were damaged. The ship started taking on water in the bow through openings about 20 feet below the water line.  As the liner nosed down, water flooded compartments one after another and the ship's stern began rising out of the water.
For decades after the disaster, there was little doubt about what sank the Titanic. When the unsinkable ship, the largest, most luxurious ocean liner of its time, crashed into an iceberg on its maiden voyage in 1912, it took more than 1,500 of its 2,200 passengers to the bottom. As the ship slipped into the North Atlantic, so, too, did the secret of how and why it sank.
