The Titanic sunk on April 15th 1912 but it hit the iceberge that sank it on April 14th 1912 it hit the ice burg at 11:40p.m. of the 14th it took till 2:00a.m. of the 15th to sink.

Here are 5 main reasons it sank:

1. the captain, Edward John Smith, was a big reason the Titanic sank, he was suppose to slow the speed down, but refused to slow down the speed of the Titanic,

2. The Titanic wasn't built correctly,

3. The people in the crows nest forgot the banaculars in Southampton, England,

4. No one listened to the ice berge warnings from other ships,

5. The wireless operators, Jack Phillps and Harold Bride (one of them) said this to the ships that were warning them about icebergs, "Shut up, I'm busy!".
