Titanic was claimed "unsinkable" because it was the best ship built at the time. It had watertight doors and if four compartments where flooded, it could still stay afloat. Now, some people have said that since Titanic was the best ship some people called it unsinkable and that spread the word around giving it the title "The Unsinkable ship". The white star line (The company who made titanic) did not claim it unsinkable, the passengers did.
