Is it a stroke of bad luck that sank the Titanic?

David Blair was a sailor who forgot to leave a key on board the ship.

Without it, his shipmates could not open a locker in the crow's nest containing a pair of binoculars. The binoculars were to be used to look out for bad weather and obstructions-such as icebergs. Lookout Fred Fleet who survived the disaster that claimed 1,517 lives, said that if they had the binoculars they would have seen the iceberg and have enough time to get out of its way.
