In an effort to make the fastest, biggest and most luxurious ship in the world, the British built the Titanic. It was so superior to any other ship that it was dubbed "unsinkableï". The company that owned it was so sure of this that it provided only twenty lifeboats and rafts, less than one half the number needed for the 2,227 passengers on board. Many passengers were aboard the night it hit an iceberg, more than halfway between England and its New York destination. Because the luxury liner was traveling so fast, it was impossible to avoid the giant iceberg. Fire on board also contributed to the ship's submersion. Panic was another factor that increased the number of casualties as people jumped into the cold water or struggled to be among the few people who managed to get on the lifeboats. A couple of hours after the disaster, another ship, the Carpathia, rescued the 705 survivors. The infamous Titanic had enjoyed only two days of glory on its maiden voyage in 1912 plunging into 12.000 feet of water near the coast of Newfoundland, where it lies today. (CLIFFS, 1995 - adaptado)
