Why did they call the ship that sank in Jan 2012 the second Titanic?
The called the Costa Concordia, the ship that sank in late January, the second Titanic because it was the most devastating shipwreck since the Titanic.
When did the costa concordia crash?
Well it was 9:30 pm when a big rock scrapped a hole in the side of the hull and the whole ship shaked. Then, water started to fill in the hole where the diesel generators were, they soon gave out and the engines started to shut down.the Concordia was at the the mercy of the waves and wind. The Concordia started to shift a mile at sea. Luckily a gust of wind pushed them back to the shore of the island. On the boat people couldn't get off because the captain didn't give them orders to abandon ship. Later they were able to, but there still was a lot more people on board. Now the ship was sinking to the starburst side Alot of people jumped and swam, and 32 died, ship directors say if the wind didn't push them back close to shore hundreds or maybe thousands would have died that day.
How did la Concorde sank?
I wonder whether you mean Costa Concordia, a large cruise ship which hit a rock near Italy some months ago. Or whetrher you mean Concorde, the aircrat,which was gounded because one of its fleet hit a piece of metal dropped by a previous aicraft and burst into flames

Is the Costa Concordia disaster sad for the people who were on the Titanic?
There are no longer any living *survivors of the Titanic. There are some similarities between the two disasters, but many differences as well. The Titanic was an ocean liner and the Costa Concordia is not; it is a cruise ship. Cruise ships are not designed to withstand the rigors of a transoceanic voyage, as are ocean liners. The Titanic went down completely in the mile deep waters of the north Atlantic and the Costa Concordia is currently stable with much of its structure above the water line. Not to make light of the horrendous situation off the coast of Italy, but over a thousand souls perished in the Titanic sinking, and there will be no more than 32 deaths (the 15 already confirmed dead, and the remaining 17 missing, assuming that they will be found dead or will never be recovered) resulting from the grounding of the Costa Concordia. On the other hand, when the Titanic was built it was not required by the laws and standards of the day to have equipment on board to assure the safety of all passengers, and this is one reason why so many were lost. There seems to be no excuse whatever for the loss of anyone on board the Costa Concordia, which was properly equipped to safely evacuate every living person. It does appear, though, that human error is a very significant factor in both disasters.*The last living survivor, Millvina Dean, died in 2009 at the age of 97. She was about 2 months old when the Titanic sank in 1912.
